I hope Lucius will cooperate - if not with Severus, hopefully with Scorpius.Looking forward to seeing what happens next!

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

Lucius is a very beaten down man.  The boys will help.Hope you enjoy the next chapter.

HBAR

Oh dear.  This isn't good at all.  Maybe Scorpius will save the day by convincing Lucius to help.  He has already redeemed himself, but this would make him an even more remarkable boy if he was willing to deal with his own personal issues in order to help someone who wasn't a close personal friend or family member.  I have my fingers crossed for a positive outcome.

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

:)  Maybe he will.  Yes, he has redeemed himself and Severus will ask him and Albus to help him.  They will be working very hard to try to come up with an answer.Thank you for your comments.

As in real life, nothing goes as planned at first. Better luck next time. ^_^

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

Nope things won't go well for a bit but we have some powerful minds working on the process.

Lucius better help. nice chapter. :D

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

I hoope he does too.  He's got a lot to over come.  But Severus is a changed man.

mimmom

oh my!  I hope lucius will help.

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

Lucius is rather a broken man right now.  One whos been alone and forsaken a long time.  He needs some one to expect good things from him.

Human! Would you be so kind as to inform me when you might update? Not getting mad or anything. Just doing this to any author I have bookmarked.  Sorry. And Thank You.

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

Human! LOL  I think the next chapter is in the Queue so whatever time that takes...there will be another one up.  This story updates every week or two.

HBAR

Oh no!  I am glad Severus was able to see that there is a problem.  Hopefully in time to save Arthur and Molly.  I do hope that there is not a corelation between their aging and Severus' youth.  Gulp.  I actually thought this story was surely wrapping up, but here we go again.  Not that I am complaining at all as this is quite enjoyable.  I was pleased that the talk between Severus and Harry went well.  I do hope he can bring Ron around.  If not, then he isn't a friend worth having, I suppose.  It will still be hurtful to Hermione, though.

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

Since the story is a good 54 chapter I think there is a lot of story to tell.  It just seemed to keep going...lol. I originally planned to stop after Severus was free of the bubble, but then nasty little Scorpius grabbed my attention one night.  There are the stories of the Weasley and the Malfoy's yet to deal with. I like stories where Harry does not have that "that greasy git" attitude.  He's grown up and is man enough to see Severus for the hero he was.Yes Ron is an ass in this story for the most part...I could never see them together before watching Deathly Hallows.I will still always be a HG/SS shipper but I could see that they did care a lot for eachother in that film.

Awww ...  I always love when Severus and Poppy have such a close relationship.  I agree with Hermione that it is good to know that he had someone to turn to when he was a such low points in his life.  She was so thoughtful to give them some time away from the castle together.  The boy's potion idea is exciting and I hope they succeed.

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

I'm glad you are enjoyinghtier time together with Poppy.  I like it very much too.  I wanted Severus to ahve a history with someone and she works very well for this story.I hope we will cover the boys discovery as this story progresses.  If not I will have to go back and work on it LOL, there are directions this story take and I may have lost my way...Thank you for your comments.

Severus Snape in love was a joy to behold.   I can only imagine what a sight that is.  Thank goodness Scorpius is straightened out.  It must be such a relief to both the Snape's and his parents.  I'm looking forward to what sorts of potions the students come up with.

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

Yes, seriously I don't honestly think it's ahrd for Snape tp fall in love.  I think he loves very deeply.  Its obvious.  I think a woman who cares deeply for him would quickly win his heart and he really has such a copacity to commite heart and soul.Thank you for your comment's

Interesting twist.  Is it really a Dark Curse, or did Albus tap into their magic in order to keep Severus young?Looking forward to seeing what happens next!

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

Now that would have been an interesting twist.  That would have been pretty devestatng to all fo them.  Thinking he would use good people for such an thing.  Well it would have been a brilliant idea.  Thanks for your comments.I'm glad you are enjoying the story.

Nice job. Albus and Scorpius have taken on quite the project, haven't they? ^_^

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

Yes they have, but I think they are determined to work it out.

Loved this chapter very much. The two boys are really becoming fast friends and I have a feeling they will accomplish what they set out to do. Well done!

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

Thank you :)  I Think they will do well as they go forward with their friendship.

Can't wait to read the bonding! And I'm so glad that Poppy cares as much as she does for Severus - and now, Hermione too.  I always imagine they were somewhat close like that in Canon too.

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

The bonding won't take place for some time.  There are other things that intervene but I hope you will enjoy it when it does arrive.  There are about 16 chapters left to go.  I'm glad you like the relationship with Severus and Poppy.  If any oe would know more of his secrets it would be her.  She would have been there to patch him p over the years.Thank you for your review.

What a delight, and I'm glad that Scorpius found his way. 

Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)

Thank you.  I'm glad he did too.  It was wearing Severus out.Thank you for your review.
