Well, I think your Lavender Brown is rather different compared to the books. It'll be interesting to see how Harry will do in Potions compared to Severus - he hid the Half-Blood-Prince's book in the Room of Requirement and I doubt that he could get it back - especially considering the fiendfyre that destroyed the horcrux - and it would be really difficult to use the book while Severus was in class anyway.

Response from Pyttan (Author of Second Chance)

Maybe. On the other hand we aren't told so much about her in the books really. Harry think she's silly of course, but that's him. In my mind she must be a rather powerful wich, since she got through Harry's DADA class. She was also very loyal to him when it counted.As far as I'm concerned. Ron behaved really badly towards her. For me it's a shame on him rather than shame on her, in the case of the whole Lavender/Hermione debacle. She did show some poor judgement when chosing him, I grant you that, but I was guilty of that particular sin myself, when I was younger, so who am I to judge.

His youth restored and still with ALL the knowledge he's gained over the years?   Oh, beware, any who think to stand in the way of THIS Severus !!

Response from Pyttan (Author of Second Chance)

Oh yes. Just think of all the (fun) things you could do and get away with if you knew what you know today and was eighteen again.On the down side,  you would be eighteen again ... together with other eighteenyear-olds *shudders*Poor,poor Sev.

I really like your story. But please don't pair Severus up with this air-headed bimbo Lavender Brown. The talk between Severus and Draco was great.

Response from Pyttan (Author of Second Chance)

Thank you so much. I was a bit nervous about writing Draco but as it turned out he has his own mind about what he wants to say.Why don't you like poor Lavender? She can handle Blast-ended screwts, she's in the DA, she supports Harry even after she was really shabbily treated by his best friend, (and she was. He was a dick, not ending it when he lost interest) and she fights in the battle of Hogwarts and takes a rather rough beating in the process. I like Lavender.

Love, love, love this! Great chapter, as always; thought I'd never say this, and mean it, but poor Lavender... unfortunately, the experience must have changed her in so many ways... Greyback is truly a nasty piece of work; however, love it that Severus will protect her from the sly Zabini - but have a feeling it won't be as easy as he assumes... loved the dialogues, especially between Severus and Draco.

Response from Pyttan (Author of Second Chance)

Thank you!  And Lavender have changed. She got bitten by Greyback, but she also lived through that awful year with the Carrows ...And sly Zabini, and Gryffindors, and Draco, and Minerva, and Hagrid ... *gleefully clapping my hands*I think I might go post the next chapter now ...

Response from nagandsev (Reviewer)

Please post as soon as possible!

Lavender?! Oh, please, say it ain't so!! She is far too vapid for our Severus!!I love the exchange between Malfoy and Severus – Malfoy's vulnerability is palpable and very well-written.This is honestly one of my favorite fanfics, and I'm dismayed that you've not received more reviews... but perhaps the other readers have the same issue I do: I don't often have time to get on the laptop to read fanfics, and most of my reading is done on my iPhone in the car/public transport/the few minutes I have in waiting rooms of doc offices, etc... and, unfortunately, the TPP site's coding will not allow me to review from my iPhone... anyway, point being, I made a special trip to my dusty laptop just to leave you a review so that you know you have very loyal readers out here that *love* your work, even if we don't always have the means to leave a note to tell you so.Keep up the great work, and please, please update soon!

Response from Pyttan (Author of Second Chance)

Vapid? Lavender? A girl that's able to handle Blast-Ended Skrewts? She has hidden depth that girl ...And I think Sev and Draco both needed a friend ... Going back to Hogwarts can't be easy for either one of them. ANd I'm glad you liked their first meeting.  And you are such a sweetheart telling me this. The reviews is what keeps me writing, even when I'm not all that inspired, and this is such a nice review to get! Thank you so much. And I'll post soon, promise.

This is one of the best de-aging stories I've read. I look forward to the next chapter. Keep 'um coming.

Response from Pyttan (Author of Second Chance)

Such a lovely compliment. And I will. Thank you so much for reviewing.

I love Madam Pomfrey, and I love it that so many of the characters are extending friendship out to Severus, in a way that he has never experienced in his life - it's so bittersweet - really lovely! I love Draco considering being a Healer! What a wondersul inspiration! Also, I'm enjoying your Lavender and the possibilities that could occur between her and the young Sev *waggling eyebrows* - wonderful story! Looking forward to more *nudge, nudge*!

Response from Pyttan (Author of Second Chance)

The healer thing, I have to admit, wrote it self. I didn't really plan that, but it seemed to ... work, so I went with it. And Lavender. She is just what he needs. He needs to be thouroghly snogged I think. And I am, at present, trying to fix a couple of snags in the story. Hopefully I'll post in a couple of weeks. I'm afraid every little thing takes me an age to write... And thank you again for your support.

Mmm...I love all of the details and characters involved and care of detail and richness of characterizations. 'Hogwarts was a foul, insane place, he decided...' - HA!  Love it! Poor Sev! Wonderful work!

Response from Pyttan (Author of Second Chance)

That's what I love with the HP verse: All the fantastic characters. They are all so tempting to use. And thank you so much!

Love all of the rich dragon-related detail as well as the rest - yum! Wonderful banter and Hagrid is a delight - lovely work!

Response from Pyttan (Author of Second Chance)

Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it.

Love the developing comaraderie between Sev and Draco; oh Slughorn, you and your Slug Club - love it!

Response from Pyttan (Author of Second Chance)

Slughorn is such an oppotunistic, net working horror isn't he? And his Slug club opens up so many opportunities ;). I still like Slughorn though, since he, in the end, did the right thing.And both Draco and Severus really need a friend, don't you think?
