    ::bouncing excitedly in chair:: Goody-goody-goody! Another chapter!! ::manic grin:: 'Scuse the super-hyperness; too much coffee, not enough chocolate, and Spring Fever in the kids on my bus... I had numerous flying arms narrowly missing, great imitations of ADHD behavior, and one punching this afternoon--all *BEFORE* I even finished *loading* my elementary kids for the trip home! (I will not mention my high schoolers. Let's just say I was channeling Severus at his worst within ten minutes of leaving school...::sweat-drop::)

    Poor Freedom. He's getting a third-person-view of his former life as Harry, and being forced to acknowledge some things he'd never considered about himself before. Heh--I have a feeling it's going to take some doing to get him to want to go back to being human-Harry! I can't wait to read what he learns from Ron, Hermione and Hagrid! (Not to mention Dumbledore's nastiness!)

    Author's Response:

    I hear you! As a former educator myself, I KNOW how fast those kids can push buttons.  That's why I've always sympathized with Severus . . .anyone who's taught kids of any age . . .or dealt with the public in retail (like me) knows there are days when you just want to strangle someone or beat your head in against a wall!

    Yes, he is, and it's not at all like he imagined it would be.  It will, especially since some of his former life was so terrible and he doesn' t know if he could bear going back to it and if anyone will protect him this time around.

    he'll be learning a few unexpected things and Dumbledore will be dealt with in two chapter, I haven't forgotten about him!  A reckoning is coming.

    Wow, great chapter! What a mess Freedom is. It's going to terrible for him and Severus when they finally realize who he is. I can't wait to see that difficult journey. I hope that everything will work out alright!

    Thanks so much for the updates!

    Author's Response: He really is a mess, between the Dursleys abuse and what he recalls of Severus being nasty to him and also some things he did that were irresponsible too.  There's a lot of guilt and resentment there and Severus isn't going to take it well when he finds out.  But the struggle between them makes for a good story, and when and if they do reconcile, they will be that much stronger for it.  Thanks!

    Aw, poor Freedom. *huggles Freedom*
    I fear Severus' temper when he finds out about Freedom, and/or the repercussions from what he might say in anger. My poor abused boys. *huggles*

    Author's Response:

    I know, my poor Freedom!

    And poor Sev too! That is one confrontation that will not be pleasant.

    Great chapter! Poor Harry/Freedom; he's so confused by these memories that he doesn't quite understand and no wonder, too.

    And poor Severus, too. His life has been hard as well, and it's going to be hard for him too, when the truth about his familiar does come out...though it might not happen for a while.

    I'm looking forward to the next chapter.

    Author's Response:

    Yes, it's also confusing because some of the memories he's getting back are in bits and pieces, especially in regards to things that happened at school.  And he hasn't yet remembered when he transformed into a hawk, so that makes it even more difficult.  Plus, some of the memories are so awful, and frightening, that he doesn't want to remember them.  He also fears losing Severus, who has been kind to him as a hawk, and protective. 

    Sev has indeed had a hard life, as bad as Harry's in it's way, and it's going to hurt him when he first finds out that the familiar he bared his heart and soul to is the one person he would never trust to keep a secret about himself.  It won't happen for awhile yet, though. But when it does . . .

    Plot is thickening... Big bang approaching... and I am horribly curious! Mila

    Author's Response:

    Yes, that explosion is on the horizon.  It'll stay there for awhile though . . .you'll see why.

    Curious about whether or not there will be a relationship in Sev & Harry's future, right?

    Thanks, Mila!

Title: Hawk For Dinner 09 Apr 2009 12:05 am
Reviewer: Kristeh (Signed) [Report This]
    Oh, I loved the dinner, and especially Umbridge upended in the strawberry trifle. But the woman is nothing but trouble and I have a feeling she really has it in for Freedom and Severus now.

    Author's Response: That was the highlight of the night, although don't discount the prophecy, it's important too! Umbridge has ALWAYS been trouble and yes, she will now be searching for a reason to make their lives miserable and maybe even do away with Freedom! Thank you.

    Poor Freedom--dealing with those dreams and not feeling like he could share them with Snape. He's going to remember soon, isn't he? Then will come the choice--does he willfully choose to remain "Freedom" and Choose to hide from everyone or chance loosing Sev and tell as soon as he can? I'm pretty sure I can guess which one he will WANT to do. . .

    Wonderful chapter.
    V.

    Author's Response:

    He is and that's the real question . . .what will he do then?

    It's a tough decision and Harry has to weigh out his options and come to terms that the Snape he knew might not be the true Snape at all, and there is more to his professor than meets the eye.

    Thanks again for reviewing!

Reviewer: Kristeh (Signed) [Report This]
    I'm really enjoying your story! Hawks are wonderful creatures, eagles too, for that matter.

    And when Freedom came back to Severus, that was just beautiful!

    Author's Response:

    Thank you! I love birds of prey, especially hawks.  Actually I love all animals, and usually have at least one in a story. 

    That was my favorite part, making Severus happy and restoring his faith in the bond they shared.  He really needs that.
