This was wonderful. Harry and Snape seemed very in character. I was shocked how calm Severus stayed after the aborted kiss-attempt at the "practice dinner" lol. You conveyed their states of mind and emotions so very well that I felt like I was right there with them. I also really liked Hermione in this fic, she seemed so very caring and like she sees a lot more than she lets people know about. Poor dense Harry, he *would* only hear the tiny nice things that Severus said about that Patil guy when he had such a nasty comment at the end... snorfle. Clueless Harry.
