Oh wow, like a deer caught in the spotlights... Poor Harry, so confused

my question is: Will Sev feel guilty of what he did with Harry? Will he run away and hide and leave harry alone to deal with it? Since I am not a fan of Dum Dork headmaster can I request some bashing of him.

Thank you

So, I have to tell you, I loathe Snape as a human being. Harry/Snape romances make me ill and I avoid them at all costs. Your summary, however, made me really curious. Snape being his wretched self around Harry and taking it to the next level is wholly plausible to me. I'm one of those people that found nothing romantic at all about Snape's supposed 'love' for Lily, seeing him more as a stalker. Snape forcing himself on Lily would not surprise me in the slightest, especially after she stared dating James, so that whole scenario that Harry uncovers makes complete sense to me. And the professor snapping and raping Harry while caught in a powerful memory also seems realistic, in its own way.

In other words, as a character study, and as a vivid portrayal of Harry as a rape victim, I think your story is written brilliantly. You've made it very clear that Harry was violated and is now completely terrified of the man. My only fear is that this will somehow turn into a warped Stockholm Syndrome type story so that the two can be united in some silly tosh. Please assuage my fears.

Snape was a jerk. He's a bad man. Your opening line suggests to me that you don't romanticize him at all. I look forward to seeing how Harry resolves his predicament and comes to terms with what happened to him. I hope that he realizes at some point that he can turn to his friends and that they won't ridicule or reject him. At the very least, I wonder if Hermione will cotton on to some of Harry's anxiety eventually.

I was a bit disappointed in Dumbledore's impatience. He usually gives some thought to all of Harry's worries and I expected him to ask more questions.

But, still, really complex and involving story.

Is Severus being possessed or does he have a multiple personality?

Ohhh, MPD! I like the story so far! I know reviews are also for constructive criticism but I have nothing to say! The pace you have set, your grammar and spelling...everything is spectacular! I can't wait for the next chapter. If I may ask, will you email me with an update? I truly love this story! Very original.

Hi, sorry for the second separate review. You may want to put a disclaimer at the top of your story.
