I loved that first meeting! And "Wishing you an uneventful year" in McGonagall's letter completely cracked me up. (Glad to see she got her Order of Merlin, too :) It was cool to see that McGonagall ended up as headmistress and that Severus got to be the DADA professor as well as Head of House. Since he chose it, I'm sure it's your Severus's dream job! All the kids seemed a bit mature for their ages, though - it felt like you'd aged them all up a bit, which was a little odd. Yay for Severus and Harry figuring it out on their own! And I liked your epilogue at King's Cross. Thanks!
