Damn Harry wouldn't stay the age I wanted him to be...well I guess I'm going to extra hell for making him seem even younger? Thanks for the great comments. I figured that Canon!Harry just went with Hagrid with no fuss so why would Severus be any different? Also speaking of predatory...I was writing the first chapter on a break from school, I went over to a small park nearby and sat on a bench that looked over the park. There were no kids of course cuz that would have been TOO icky. But the park in the chapter is based off the one I was at. Newspaper and all ^_^ thank you for the support, Now that I have my first one (and a Dark, super chan one at that) under my belt I think I will be more confident to write more.
