    Awww, thats not good. I don't think Harry is going to trust Severus that much anymore after that.  Well, maybe Draco might sort it out somehow... Anyhow, update ASAP!

    Author's Response: They will get it sorted out, don't worry. Thanks for reviewing and I will update as often as I can.

    I had tears as I read this chapter...and I don't normally feel that much emotion within a chapter. The excellent writing and dramatic circumstances play second fiddle to the profound emotion woven into each bit of description and dialogue. This is a beautiful peace of work...


    Author's Response: Wow, I'm just blown away by those compliments. Thank you so much!

    Once again, great chapter.

    I know you said you started this as a one-shot (I think), but at this point, how far do you think you'd go?  Since you're getting into plot twists with Quirrell it sounds like you'll tackle the whole Philosopher's Stone book.  Which I think you could do with this Harry, given some growth in him.  And it would be very, very interesting to see Snape's perspective in that.

     But if you want to do that, I think you'll have to expand the number of characters Harry relates with.  Another reviewer mentioned Dumbledore.  I agree that's an issue.  I can't help, but wonder how Dumbledore would relate to Harry in Slytherin, and particularly Harry having this degree of "damage" from his abusive home.  Personally, I'm not into "bad Dumbledore" perspectives, although he does seem biased toward Gryffindor.  On the other hand, there's a sense in which his primary bias in the books is toward Harry specifically, and Gryffindor as a result of that. 
    Anyway, will you bring Dumbledore into the story? 

     

    And then there's other students and Hagrid.  I guess what I'm really getting at is that even if you decided to take Harry through the events of PS/SS with a somewhat different mix of friends, he'd still need to expand the group of people he interacted with.  And of course that brings up Snape and how Snape is relating to Harry and how Snape would relate to others that might enter Harry's experiences, such as Dumbledore or other students.

     I'm looking forward to see where you take this.  I like your writing.  Each chapter has been quite satisfying!



    Author's Response: Thank you so much for your review, I really appreciate your opinion and I'm glad that you're enjoying the story. You're quite right and Harry needs to start interacting with more students - the poor boy just hasn't been ready for it yet but Hermione's starting to get interested in him and I think that she'll be good for him. As far as Dumbledore goes - everyone is asking this, and yes he will eventually play a role - but he doesn't actually have that much interaction with Harry in the beginning part of the first book. It will come soon but I don't feel at all guilty about having left him out up until now.

    Great chapter... your characterizations are so perfect and I love the way you staged the Minerva/Harry scene with Severus lurking in the shadows.  Quite a hefty topic to bring up, I had forgotten all about the parents and their "car crash" bit.  I had just assumed that it would have been talked about by Hagrid...

    Anyway, great chapter!  I loved it, and I can't wait for the next one to come out soon!

    Author's Response: Thank you so much, I'm very glad that you liked it. Initially I hadn't planned on changing that particular scene, but Harry pointed out to me that he wasn't nearly ready to talk about things like that in front of his uncle.

    Yea!!!!!  Snape realises what a a**hole he was!!!!  He's lucky (?) that Harry has been so abused in the past that he accepted Snape's sudden reversal in his behavior towards Harry as "normal."  Of course, how is this 'waif' going to be strong enough to destroy Voldemort?  And where is Dumbledore in all of this?  Not to insult you, but in canon Dumbledore plays such a big part I wonder if he will appear as anything more than the stereotype here:  You know, anti slytherin.  Thanks for such quick updates!!!

    Author's Response: I really don't feel that Dumbledore played "such a big part" in the first part of Book 1 - he doesn't show up much until the invisibility cloak and the Mirror of Erised and we aren't there quite yet. It is coming, I promise... I'll update as quickly as I can.

    Ut-Ho this cannot bode well for either Harry or Snape.  The boy will surely break down fully and I don't know if Sev will realize his mistake. 

    I also don't think that Harry will trust him so easily again at all.  Keep up the good work.



    Author's Response: Hope this next chapter makes everything better... all is not lost. :)

    This is a really wonderful story! i expecially like this sort of angsting and mean Severus, the longer the anguish takes the better ;)

    I'm so sad there is no more for me to read :(

    Please post another chappie soon, I beg you!

    Your impatient reader. 



    Author's Response: Hope this is soon enough, although this chapter cuts back a bit on the angst. There has to be a reprieve before it increases, right?

    Gee, I love how paranoid your Snape is.  He's great.  The world is out to get him.  Or, at least, Harry Potter is.  I love this story!

    Author's Response:

    You know what they say about paranoia ... wait, no, Harry isn't out to get Snape... oh well, sayings like that are often wrong anyways.

    Glad you're enjoying it, hope you like the next chapter.
