It is so like Snape to watch everyone, but refuse to talk to them lol.

I would imagine someone like Snape would want to be a bit more ... selective ... in his companionship. :)

I lovelovelove how Snape makes Albus verbalise what his bravery was when Sorted. This story was a pleasure to read, so much so that I want you very much to continue. :)

Thanks so much! What a lovely compliment. So glad you enjoyed it!

This is marvelous!

A spot-on Snape, and a young Albus with a mind of his own and the gumption to use it.

The last line is pure gold, too.

Well done indeed,

Thanks so much!! I love to write Snape, so I'm really glad this version of him came across well here. Really glad you liked it!!

YES! An absolutely believable turn of events and scene to happen! Al's politeness is so well done - and how true to life to make sense of oneself while trying to explain it to somebody who is truely listening.....

I'm really glad that came across here - it was important that Snape didn't seem to be too mean to the kid, as perceptive as he is. Glad you liked it!

Splendid.

Perfectly observed - and conveyed.
