I so admire the dialogue you write for my favorite couple.  I'm so happy to see you return to updating this story and hope you will continue with some regularity.  ~

I have to agree with Severus, there.  If she wants a normal boyfriend, she must not want him. 

No she doesn't. Hermione is full of it. She had normal. Nobody is more a normal boy than Ron. That's why he's so repulsive! And likely to remain so.

SO GOOD *slaps hand repeatedly on the desk* good, good, good. Hey, personally I could trade in the hand-holding and lake watching for the Snark Master. I look forward to another great chapter!-

You know, I never read the last chapters of this story over at MuggleNet... this is having a very gloom and doom feel to it with that 'beginning of the end' bit. You're not going to allow me to hide my head in the sand, are you? [<-- That's a rhetorical question.]

I can just picture what Severus might have been thinking at the end of this chapter: 'that light at the end of the tunnel is an oncoming train.'

That reference to Umbridge was shudder inducing. You're very good at that!

I look forward to more... soon

Aww, poor Severus! But everything will work out in the end ... right?

Oh, that last sentence is so endearing.

You're not just torturing Snape, you're torturing me!

 *cries*

 Update soon!

BRILLIANT, I love you, you're amazing, oh god please write more.

I'm glad somebody has a plan....Great chapter, as always. Torturing Snape is your privilege, but torturing your readers is an Unforgivable! So update soon!

*squeeeeee* Yay! You updated! I really liked this chapter, even if it was a bit short. That is one of my top favorite scenes from HBP, and I love that you incorporated it into the story. I thought it was really cute when you wrote this,"...fighting an insane urge to pinch her on the bum when she entered the classroom."Lol, I thought that was cute ;)Overall, a great chapter, though a bit short. I'm looking forward to reading more :D~ Vicky

That was a really entertaining take on that particular passage in HBP.

So lovely to have a new chapter, thanks for keeping us readers happy! Liked the chapter, I do love the way you work your story in with the book, it's brings a whole new light to it, if that makes sense! Poor old Snapey Poo, are you going to give him a hard time?! How about the old prat Slughorn, and maybe some Draco trouble too!!

I was so excited to find out this story was updated! I was so sorry to finish this great chapter.... I look forward to more.

I just can not imagine anyone having a life beyond fanfiction! You really do need to get your priorities straight.

You need an antagonist? Try Slughorn. He had been Severus' professor and with all that sucking up Slug does, there should be at least some room for him to antagonize his former student. I can't picture Severus being agreeable to the Slug Club, especially with him fawning over Potter.

You arn't going to torture him to badly huh? I mean he will have a happy ending?

Thank you for the update, I feel bad that you plan to torture SS, but at the same time I look forward to it.

An update! Aw, poor Severus; if <i>you</i> planning for evil things to come to him then he is in for a terrible year! I may have already said this at some point, but I love the way you incorporate it all into the same scenes from canon, but not so that we're reading the same long paragraph - keep up the amaaazing work!~

Looking at previous chapters, Snape doesn't need any antagonist but you. 

Plenty of giggle worthy moments! Hope to see more soon.

Well, would you believe it, here I was coming along to ask you when we're going to be getting an update, as it's been soooo long, and what do I discover?! A chapter that I haven't read! Now how the bloody hell did that happen?! I was very cross with myself, but also very excited, what a treat! I blame it on the fact that I've barely had any internet since I moved house 3 months ago, and only got it fixed (finally) this week.And what a chapter it was! At long long last they are back together and there's some action! Brilliant chapter, and please can we have an update soon, this is my favorite fic and it's been far too long!

*sigh* Why does it have to be over? I am dying for more!I am so happy that I was finally able to take some time away from schoolwork to read the last four chapters. They were all wonderful, and I really loved them. Snape's... feelings about Wormtail were rather hilarious, and I loved the bit with Bellatrix's hair.But I especially loved this last chapter. You write their quiet moments, when they're just sitting with each other, so well. It was so romantic, and incredibly sweet. I really loved it. I can't wait to read the next chapter!Hopefully, now that school's coming to an end, I'll have more time to read, because I really would like to go back and reread some of the chapters.Great job!! :D~ Vicky

That was one of the more teasing, sensually oriented scenes I've had the pleasure of reading.

Please, please send us the next one.... I'm dying to know!!!   

THAT WAS GREAT! I love your story. :) Can't wait for the next update! -Elle
