    Wow! What a great chapter! I loved watching the kids figure out how the Room of Requirement worked. And Harry mentioning that a new Headmaster might not let Draco keep his snake was a superbly Slytherin way of keeping him from writing Lucius and getting Dumbledore removed. Oh, yes...the "it's dyslexic for Deatheaters Anonymous" line was great and I love Hermione's nickname of Chimera. Frankly, I loved it all. Once more, I say bravissimi. (Now imagine yourself receiving a standing ovation).

    Author's Response: Thank you ^^ I wanted to interduce the children to the cerberus in a unique way so I thought that the Room of Requirement might be fun ^^ Yup, all the kids are being honed into Slytherins: cunning, ambitious and practical. Poor old Severus lol!

    Your rationale about snakes in JKR's world is spot on to me. This was a lovely little chapter. I especially liked Harry's solution to getting Severus the defense job in 8 or so years. And the DA has been born! I really like what you are doing with this story.

    I would have read and reviewed last night but I was at the emergency room after a fall. No broken bones thank goodness, just a sprained wrist and knee, but I sure could use one of Professor Snape's healing potions and bruise salve. Your story makes me smile and since smiling produces endorphins I'm feeling better already.

    Again bravissimi and thanks for the quick update.

    Author's Response: Sorry to hear about your accident: having sprained my wrist twice in the last ten years I can fully sympathise. (Unlike Harry, I genuinely was clumsy lol) I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter ^^.

    Very well done. As they say, short but sweet. And true, many animals can and will bite when provoked. It does help that there is at least one Parseltongue, in case something bad should happen. Keep writing, I long to see the next chapter. :)

    Author's Response: Thanks: I tend to keep the chapters short because that means I can update every night. Also, I find my plot seems to rather naturally fall into smallish segments: every chapter feels complete at a certain stage, whether it's 500 words or 5000 and, with this fic, I tend to find chapters feel 'finished' at around the 2000 word mark

    I'm not surprised that Dumbledore caved; the school does need the support of the parents. If Lucius and Narcissa feel that the snake would make a good pet for Draco, then Dumbledore should ask for a written statement that says the school has no liability when it comes to the snake. That way there isn't an issue.

    I'm glad that Harry seems to be finding little rays of sunshine in his days at school. I know that there will be times when the clouds and rain come, but treasuring those little rays will make his days bright.

    Great chapter!

    Author's Response:

    Yes, I agree. There's also the fact that Hydrophis Becheri are, in reality, exceptionally friendly creatures and I, personally, wouldn't mind sharing a pool with a tame one lol! That said, if I were headmaster, I might feel it prudent to take Lucius's suggestions with a pinch of salt: the poor man might be harangued into advocating something like his son must eat ice-cream for every meal!
