While I understand Severus' caution with the children and with Hermione, I am glad that Hermione stood her ground. For the situation to work properly, everyone has to give a little. I look forward to seeing how their relationship continues to evolve.
Author's Response: It went fine. The zoo trip isn't any sort of big deal, just shows the kids can handle going outside and being around other people without completely freaking out. Progress. |

Oh how I love this story. I love how Granger is standing up to him and making headway. I hope they bring the "graduates" home so they can have another chance. I look forward to more. |

Your sensitivity to emotionally broken students and to Snape points up: no one person can deal with multiple problems; Snape has done well with what abilities and resources he has; as an emotionally damaged being himself, Snape deals in a damaged way; this leaves orphans and their protector in a circle of despair, because he has hit the ceiling of his abilities, thus a prison of mistaken ideas has been formed; Snape is jealous...his inner child resists the idea that anyone else can be trusted. But...the operative idea, here, is trust. Gaining trust by using an inanimate go-between such as books in the hope that trust will be transferred to the teacher as therapist is good, but beware of your subject getting lost in the fantasy world. Therapy animals are good...especially if they are animagi. The out-on-the-streets teenagers will be difficult indeed. Good story, great Snape and difficult times ahead. Like your dialog...the 'showing', not simply 'telling'. JF |
