Bedtime binder?! You have a bedtime binder of fic? :D That is the awesomest idea ever!!
Thank you so much for reading, Josan! It made me laugh to read your reactions throughout the fic. :D It's interesting that you felt somewhat more sympathetic to Snape at the end than I think a lot of people did. I can think of so many points that go toward Snape having done nothing terribly wrong--none of which, I'm sure, would hold any water for a lot of folks! :D But yeah, Snape really loves Harry here--and one thing I was thinking was that Snape views himself as Harry's protector. He'd never do anything to hurt Harry, and he hasn't. There's an ominous "yet" underlying that thought, but still. He hasn't. In fact, he takes quite a bit of pride in his role--thus the righteousness of his hand as he brews Harry's warming potion. :)
