What an excellent story. I loved the aspects wizarding culture you explored, and the inventive magic. So interesting, and such amazing detail and imagination. In addition to that, it was excellently written, with great characterization throughout. Harry is such a sweetheart! And Snape was magnificent, and strong, and sarcastic - just as he ought to be. I even liked and sympathized a bit with Malfoy, which I NEVER DO, so well done you. You brought all the characters to life for me, and I hope (HOPE) you will be writing a sequel some day soon. The kiss left me wanting more...
