I am in love with this story so far.

pity that you forgot percy...

how could she use the wand? she's not the master

first and second years don't learn CoMC

wonder how well she manage to resist imperius

magical me? didn't he buy the book?

That was beautiful. Your writing is nearly impeccable, and I absolutely adore how you depicted the growing relationship between Harry and Severus. This is my favorite trope, and you've handled it well. I'll joyfully add it to my collection of favorites.

I fucking loved thos book, I cried so much at the end. Very satisfying

Severus didn't marry? That is sad.

No everyone doesn't like the Beatles.

I think a combination of cursebreaking and potions would be more effective.

Frankly I think Harry should have asked how to get the money back. He should have told Dumbledore about the lack of food, clothing and everything else then demanded they get the money back.

Luna could see the thestrals. Harry had asked for help at Hogwarts several times. He told McGonagall about the detentions.
The adults in his life have proven time and time again they can not be trusted.

One of my problems with obliviation is who gave them the right to mess with my memories? My mind? What guarantee do I have I will still have a mind that works afterwards? Who would care anyway?

this was really really lovely.
I'm in a kind of weird, uncertain time in my life right now - not bad, just very in-between and liminal - and this was exactly what I needed from a story today. It's so soft and steady and hopeful. (And I will always love found family)
I loved your characterization here. In too many fic, I see Harry react in really unnecessarily drama causing ways. You totally avoided that trap here, and its lovely to watch him growing up and growing into himself. You also made this softer Snape feel believable.
Thanks for writing. It's very appreciated. Please know that your work was a good part of someone's life :)
