Hahahahaha! Dad, everyone is getting a snake and I need one, too, and it has to be better than everyone else's!
The snakes were fun. I wondered which Harry would pick. Reggie sounds like he will be a good friend to Harry.
Salazar is certainly a character. He is going to drive Petunia nuts. I found the idea of the locket to be a good one. That way Slytherin will be able to keep a close eye on Harry.
I enjoyed the conversation between Harry and Salazar. It was a neat idea to have the portrait comfort him and I liked the parseltongue usage. Hopefully, the portrait will help lay some of Harry's fears to rest.
The memory of Slytherin was interesting. Having the former Basilisks donate memories to help future students was a neat idea. It may take some time for Harry to believe that he didn't deserve his treatment. Sev has a long road ahead of him.
I enjoyed the description of Elb. It sounded beautiful but I wondered how anyone would live there full time so I was glad when Severus told Harry that it was like a Muggle shopping center. The shops sounded like they would be fun to visit. It must have been a wonderful day for Harry.
The letters did a good job of putting Harry straight about what his friends think of him. Severus should be able to finish that job. I liked that you included the letters.
I wondered how Harry would encounter the troll. Hopefully, he will open up for Severus.
I enjoyed that Poppy and Charity joined Severus in taking care of Petunia. I liked the idea of an epiphany spell for Dudley. That must have been an eye-opener for him. I also like the snake familiar for Poppy. It makes sense. So Hermione is in Slytherin now. That should be interesting.
I wonder if Harry will find out what happened to his aunt? She's lucky Severus managed to limit his curses after that last remark. I'm looking forward to finding out what happens to Hermione, too.
