I'm sorry you squirmed and I'm not. I really didn't want an "oh poor Harry" reaction, and you make me feel I succeeded in that. I always saw Harry as more than a little reckless and unthinking, apt to get himself in trouble because he didn't think about the consequences of his actions. I think by the last book that had changed some, so I see you point, and I'm glad you saw his behavior as "real human behavior" if not exactly "real Harry behavior."
Snape/Neville. That idea used to give me hives, but yeah, I could sort of see this Snape with this Neville, although while I was writing the fic it never even occurred to me. Sort of makes me want to rewrite the epilogue. *g*
Thanks for the lovely comments, and for taking the time to read.
