A Snape mentors Harry fic and a Snupin fic combined? THIS IS GOLD. I thought I'd never see the day someone would combine these two so perfectly! I love the character interactions and the loving father son relationship of Remus and Harry! Please update soon!

I love it, definately one long fiction. I wanna see Evil Dumbly's response, and loyal Mc Gonagal's...also was Sirius out of his mind with worry? Can you also sort of differ even more from canon next year? add your ouw scenes? that might be too much to ask but it's just a suggestion. Queen Farli

Go Harry! Take that Dumbledore! Muahahahahahahahahahaha! okay now that's over i would just like to say that i love the story and the way you put the challenge together, brilliant! and if my um slightly excited reaction didn't prove it i really don't know what else would lol good story! oh and before i forget i would also like to say poor Severus! well Remus too but he had Sirius and Harry. So just wondering how are you going to incorporate Voldemort in here? well more so than already done... i should stop typing now or this will go on for the last O 9430 something characters i have wait 9402, 9393! aw whatever great story! = )

GO HARRY! I wonder how Dumbledore will respond to that, I mean is publicly being called out, after all. I how you put that in the next chapter, since you didn't put it in this one, and where *did* Harry get all those injuries?
Can't wait for Friday!

Go Harry! Fantastic chapter :)

That's just evil. Letting me wonder how much choking Dumbledore is doing!
Great chapter! I loved all of it! Can't even pick a favorite part!

this is a great chapter. Dumbles needs to be humbled once in a while. I think he gets too "big for his robes" with his greater good excuse. LOVE THE STORY TOO.

Harry just demonstrated maturity... yay! This is a nice change from the books. Good job with Draco drinking second - he's still a Slytherin. It has been a while, but thanks for the update.

YAY! You're back!
I have to say, i agree with the other comments. In the books, when Harry kills Quirrell, thats it. He wakes up and goes off on a tangent about the stone and the rest of it and we don't really see any of this emotional turmoil. So that was good of you to put that in. :)
Keep it up! Looking forward to reading the upcoming chapters.

Very happy to see this new chapter. I really liked this version, especially Harry's reaction. Can't wait for more :)

YAY! Finally, a new chapter! I can't wait for the next one. I'm glad you added that last bit about Harry's reaction, because it always bothered me that he never really reacted to it, especially considering how he reacted to Cedric.

I missed this story.
Anyway, you managed to put your own touches to the book and it was quite interesting, especially Harry's reaction. now to see his 'parents' reaction! Poor Padfoot and Moony, going to get gray before their time.
Great work!

Yeah, Americans are weird. My roommate even reads all the books in UK edition because she thinks it's silly that we have to have an "American" edition (which it is). However, I always confused as to why the original was "philosopher's stone" as philosophy is the study of beliefs, humanity, and general ideas such as (stereotypically) the reason for existence. Sorcerer never seemed quite right, either, however. I always thought a better name would have been "Alchemist's Stone"...

But I digress. This chapter is very similar (obviously) to the original book, but as you said you have a distinctly different writing style than Rowling. I feel this makes it a very different reading experience - especially as there are more characters present. I also like how you're making Neville, as well as other canon minor characters, an important and respect-worthy character early on.

Please update soon, I can't wait to see how the Hospital Wing scene will go, what with your portrayal of Dumbledore as a rather sneaky, controlling person.

Hey! Don't blame all Yanks! I know damn well what a Philosipher's Stone and dislike Scholastic for wanting to appeal to the lowest common denominator. Some of us know myths and legends including ones on alchemy.

Love the story so far, cant wait to read more :-)

And re: your ps at the end of this chapter, they aren't weird, they are generally ignorant. It was decided that most/all Americans wouldn't know that 'philosopher' originaly meant 'scientist' and would never have heard of the philosophers stone. That's why they changed it. Not sure how they couldn't have myself, would have thought some of them would have at least read 'Frankenstein'...
