This was excellent. Joshua was a nice original character - I think it was nice to see Snape with a real friend for once. It was a shame that Joshua couldn't stay longer with Snape, but it was more like 'real' life I suppose. In the fantasy sense of course.
Having 'lemon drops' as the cover up word was a humourous touch too. I was quite surprised at the slytherin password also being lemon drops!
The quidditch pitch was quite interesting - slightly eerie.
Wow I really liked this one. It was short sweet and interesting. Loved the concept of it!

Wow
OK that was totally out of left field but really really good!
Short and sweet (although I would love an epilogue say a year down the road) and very well written, Brava, or is that Bravo? anyroad, well done.

This is really neat, I have been trying to guess who which Slytherin's memories Harry has adoped...
I also wonder if Harry will start to dress differently, more formal/robe and tie all the time... hmmm
Lovely tale. I liked Joshua very much.
Wow, loved it! Nice story!
Aw, that was a very moving story. I feel bad for Severus that he lost his friend, but perhaps he gained a new one, in Harry- and a new understanding.

Excellent little story! I've written down the title, so next time I log in, I shall favorite it. One small correction you could make: "Severus rose and left the room. He didn't think he could BEAR to sit there and listen to Harry joke with his friends, alive and well, knowing Joshua was once again gone."
"To bear" is to carry the weight of a thing, and that's the proper verb for when someone doesn't think they can stand to do something. Other than that common homonym error, your story is perfect. Many thanks for all the work you did on it; I repeat, it is an EXCELLENT story.
Bravo!
This last chapter was kinda sad - poor Sev. Wonderfully done, though. Thanks for writing this! ^^
Author's Response: Sorry, it wasn't meant to be sad. It was meant to show that Harry and Severus had finally come to an understanding of each other, and had called a truce to the hostilities. Joshua brought them together kind of as a gift to Severus when he left again.
