This is an incredible story. I have just read it at one sitting and am endlessly impressed - except for one thing - this bloody cliff-hanger at chapter 39. It simply won't do! You must immediately correct this by writing several new chapter and posting them - immediately!! Author's Response: Thanks for the comments. Jen

Noooooooooo! You can't leave us on this most evil cliff hanger! ~Lisa Author's Response: waves from atop the cliff

I love this story! I've always said the most interesting things in OOtP was stuff going on off-page at No. 12 Grimmauld Pl. Cool to be a fly on that wall. Plus, I love your Snape. Expanding his character just enough to be interesting but stopping short of OOC. Author's Response: Thank you so much! I love seeing that type of review, because I keep worrying that I'm getting Snape too far away from character. After all, it was the Greasy Git I fell in love with, not a romanticized frock-coated, urbane, broad-shouldered, tall, dark and handsome reflection of him (not that I don't enjoy reading those, mind you, but I'm trying very hard to maintain the greasy git in my own fic and...) meh. open mouth, insert foot.

"Charmed" is a perfect title for this chapter. I found it to be utterly charming---I love the interaction between Snape and the OFC. Certainly shows another side to Snape! Author's Response: Thanks for the comments. Jen

oh. my. god. this is one of the best pieces i have ever seen. i hate wips, but yours dragged me along for the ride. i can't say how wonderful i think this is, but i have slogged through a lot of inane shit, and to discover something this good, this far along into the muck of fanfic- a blessing indeed. your characterization of severus is stunning. thanks for taking the time to tell your tale. i look forward to the rest. very forward.b Author's Response: thank you for the praise. I appreciate the vehemence of your commendation

Wow, what an intro to magic...your childhood nightmare comes alive! This is continuing to be a great story! Author's Response: giggles From the first time I saw the boggart scene in PoA (saw the movie before reading the book) I thought 'ooh. the monster under the bed.' So I was thinking about what my boggart would be... And I realized it would be this monster my cousins used to scare me with, and I ran with that theme. You'll see more of my own reaction to magic in Autumn as the story progresses.

I've been reading this story almost continually for two days. It's excellent. I especially like how you don't spell out every little detail right away, but rather hint first and give full explanations later when the situation calls for it. I love what you've done so far and I'm looking forward to seeing more. Author's Response: It's coming as fast as I can submit chapters ;) As for the hinting at things-- foreshadowing is one of my favorite techniques. Unfortunately, it isn't as effective in a first draft. This story might be edited when it's all done to work in more of it.

Thanks for the update! I love the new, more thoughtful Snape. It's interesting getting in his mind and seeing his general fatigue and re-birth. ~Lisa Author's Response: I keep fearing I'm getting too angsty, which isn't my intention. But at the same time, I love digging into a character's mind, and I think Snape's a wonderfully complicated character to work with.
