Wow, that was SOOOOOOOOOwonderful! I absolutley loved every little moment of it! And it's really ironic, I think, that a comic I posted last week features Harry writing to Snape....crossed out bits and all!
Anyway, there's so much to love about this, I can't mention everything. BUT. I have to say that I absolutley LOVED how you've written Snape....it sounded just like I would expect him to sound in letters. And through his association with Snape, it seemed that Harry became more literate over time, as well. Also, this fic was just chock full of quotable quotes! A few favorites:
Has Minerva been into the lemon drops? I maintain that their hallucinogenic properties were responsible for the employment of nearly all your Defence instructors.
Perhaps I need rescind my statement that you are the most dunderheaded homo sapiens I have ever encountered.
That the resulting explosions and inadmissable philtres allowed me to subtract points from Gryffindor and assign torture sessions detentions was a mere fringe benefit.
However, pleonastic insertion of curses indicates a deficiency of expression.
And of course the ending! Oh it was terrific!!
Thank you for such a wonderful, fabuous gift fic! If you aren't already one of my favorite writers, you will be, once I find out who you are!
