I wonder how come Harry didn't bombard Snape with questions about the blood test, or realise that a blood test just confirmed his relationship to Snape.
I guess he was too confused to think about it, but just wait till it hits him with full force, that he really is Snape's son! I can't wait till that happens.
I've got a bad feeling about Snape being Draco's guardian too. He's going to lavish Draco with all the attention, and continue to treat his own son like crap. Poor Harry.
Great chapter though, and I know I already reviewed at ffnet, but I just wanted to tell you again how pleased that I am that you are writing this story again. :)
Great update. Snape seems always so focused on whatever seems necessary, and to him "necessary" appears to be whatever is specifically needed to accomplish the task at hand, which tends to leave out the feelings and emotional wellbeing of others. So he is spending time on Lupin, treating him after whatever happened to him with the Ministry officials, but does nothing to help Harry's emotional state. Now, with Draco in need, Snape will probably be spending time helping Draco. And of course Harry will feel even more acutely this apparent lack of concern for him. I suppose once Harry finally figures out what was going on in Fudge's test, it will hurt all the more. I love your writing, but I must admit that I hate to see even further reasons for Harry to feel alone and without anyone to care for him. I'm kind of wondering when, if ever, Harry will get a break.

Thank you for the wonderful quickly update. I liked the bit about Harry being able to pick out the potion ingredients. How long until Harry starts getting suspicious about the blood test and what it means?

Havn't I read this before, several years ago? Just wondering....
Author's Response: Eh... you'd know the answer to that better than I would. :-)
This is one of my favorite stories, and it's wonderful to see your update. I like when fiction is driven by the characters (as opposed to events), and you've done a great job creating the necessary internal conflict to sustain the story.
Author's Response: Thank you. Yes, there's plenty of internal conflict to go around in this. I enjoy seeing characters put under emotional stress, because that's when the most interesting changes take place.
I'm so happy to see another chapter after so long! I kept tracking it just in case you would continue, because it is my favorite story on this site. You really capture a level of frustration and anger beneath the surface in Harry that I really feel when I read it. I feel so frustrated and unsettled on his behalf.
I can't wait to see more of this story.
Author's Response: Thank you for keeping it on your list... I was sure most people would have removed it after all that time. :-)
