    YAY!! UPDATE!! Really great chapter!

    I was excited to read, albeit a little dissapointed that you didn't get to Dumbledore yet. But, that's ok. This chapter was still perfect! I love the connection that Harry and Severus have and can't wait to see more! I hope that Harry gets more of these chances to open up to Severus and let him know what his life was like at the Dursleys. I'm super excited for the next chapter, when do you think it'll be out?! (I need some more distractions from finals!) Good luck with writing! *short review*

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Sorry to disappoint you about Dumbledore, but he'll be in the next chapter, I think.  I'm really enjoying writing Harry and Severus, and having them become closer and closer.  Severus will learn everything about the Dursleys over the course of the year, but no more for a little while.  It is hard for Harry to open up about them, and it'll take time.  I'm not sure about the next chapter.  I'll try to post it sometime next week, but I'm not sure exactly when.  Thanks again!

    Great chapter! I'm glad they are trying to work on Occlumency again and seems to have a good start. At least this time around, they are both really trying. Great wrok and I hope to read more soon!

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Things are going much more smoothly this time around, aren't they?  It's amazing how much easier it is to teach and learn when you're not on the verge of punching the other person in the face, lol.

    Interesting conversation between the two. Severus' apologizing was a surprise. As always, I'm looking forward to the next chapter :-)

    Author's Response: Thank you, Teddy!

    Another great chapter, and the chapter wasn't confusing at all - only for Harry for obvious reasons :-)
    I still love your story :-)

    Author's Response: Thank you, Teddy!  I'm so happy you liked it!  I love your stories, too!  Both "Elixir" and "Turn of the Tide" are awesome!

    For a chapter you said had a lot of "type-delete" it certainly turned out as another enjoyable read.

    Loved Harry's confusion about how he felt to have a parent-like figure in his life. Who could blame him?

    Really looking forward to the next chapter.

    Author's Response:

    Thank you!  I hate trying to write those 'type-delete' chapters.  Hopefully, the next one will flow more smoothly.  But I'm very happy that you enjoyed it.

    Harry's confusion is hard for him, but pretty soon it'll get better.  He and Severus are going to have to deal with the past at some point.

    Thanks again!

    Yay for next chapter!! But I feel really bad, what did Harry do to Draco? (It's really been a long time since I've re-read all of your story...I'll get on that soon!) But really great chapter!

    I didn't find the conflicting feelings Harry has towards Severus confusing. It makes sense that he's unwilling to just forget the past eventhough he want's to move on and accept Severus into his life as a guardian of sorts. He really does need Severus' support and eyes looking out for him. Hopefully they'll learn something about each other during this new Occlumency session (that's not too damaging, but a little agnst is ok) that'll end up bringing them closer together.

    Also looking forward to the lessons with Dumbledore, they should be fun and usefull...does he talk about horcruxes at all?...hmmm... Well, it should be fun for Harry to learn new spells and maybe even try them out on a certain potions professor...

    I really do like the way Harry and Severus' relationship has progressed in your story and I can't wait to read more! Enjoy your weekend! (But not too much, because you've got to work on Chapter 18!)

    Author's Response:

    Thank you!  Don't feel bad.  Harry hasn't done anything to Draco in this story.  Draco's comment is a throwback to the Ministry battle in OotP, when Lucius was revealed as a Death Eater and sent to Azkaban.  Somehow, in Draco's mind, this is Harry's fault.  I think Draco did actually say something to that effect at the end of OotP. 

    I'm glad you understand Harry's conflicting feelings.  He does like Severus, but it's hard to let go of the past, especially since they've never really dealt with it.

    I hope it doesn't disappoint you, but I'm probably just going to skim through Dumbledore's lessons, because they're pretty much what happened in HBP, where Harry learns more about Voldemort's past and about the Horcruxes.  Just now, Severus is going to know all about it, too, at the same time.

    I may try to begin ch. 18 tomorrow.  Thanks again!

    Another good chapter! I think it is best if Harry does floo back and forth, especially since Malfoy is already threatening him. Harry better not be caught unaware down there anytime soon. Good chapter and hopefully more soon!

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Yeah, Harry does need to be careful--Hogwarts isn't always safe, as we well know.

    Poor Ron's head must be spinning. And I think it would be normal for Harry to feel conflicted at this point so that part of the chapter was clear.

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Well, both Ron and Hermione are a bit surprised at how much Severus has changed, but they can see that Harry needs him right now, so they're trying to accept it.

    I didn't find Harry's thoughts confusing at all. You conveyed quite clearly that his thoughts and feelings were all over the place and that he was trying to come to terms with past and present and somehow meld them into one. I like how the chapter came out. Well done.

    Author's Response: Thank you!  I'm glad if I was able to show Harry's feelings.  It was just difficult to write, but I'm happy you liked it!
