An interesting handling of the concerned-person-removes-Harry plotline. I really liked your unobtrusively comptent Filius. You contributed some ingenious ideas, and managed to create a Dumbledore of whom even his phoenix familiar disapproves! Good to see Severus released from that slavery, even if he suffered a lot first, and to see friends and enemies cooperating to make it so. Even better to know that he will be rewarded with love and family, among which will be a Harry saved from abuse and exploitation.
