Ah ... how lovely to see her faith in him and to know that he truly is worth every ounce of it.

Gah!  Cliffy of all cliffy's!

I can't wait for the next chapter! 

Another cliffie …Ohmmmm, Ohmmmm … 

Practicing peacefulness and patience …Ohmmmm, Ohmmmm … 

SIGH ... it’s not working … 

Small talk to pass the time... Enjoyed the comments about Ron.

… tapping foot in irritated waiting.

So what? He's going to kill Harry and Voldemort? That's the only thing that will end "It" altogether, so he can live some other way. Please tell me I'm mistaken!I have to say, you are the first author who can write faster than I can read (although, if I had a working machine of my own, and not this lumbering public portal, things would be different)....

It was so beautiful when they were reunited again. I felt so much... it's indescribable. The emotion was tangible as I took in the words. I am so empathetic for both of them and I could tell even before Sev's confession that things weren't about to get easy for the two of them. It would never be easy for them though Dark Lord or no right? Really very touching.

Oh good, Hermione's back. Oh bad, yet another cliffhanger. I hope by that he means he's going to shatter the rules and do something very naughty with Hermione, but somehow I doubt that. It'd be far too nice a thing for you to let Severus experience. If he confesses what happened while she was out of the picture, I wonder if she'd forgive him before a chapter or two of being angry and launching hexes.

You mean Severus wants to end the secret, not the relationship, right?

I'm in the library (since my computer is vacationing at a Hewlett-Packard Spa in California) trying desperately not to gaffaw all over the computer center....are you finished, dear author? Can we PLEASE get back to the original storyline here? I never thought I'd be pleading with an author....

Sirius? you're kidding,right?

 Ah, the Sirius card. Nice thinking, I bet he hated having to tell Draco that with every fibre of his being. He really is clever though, no wonder Hermione and Draco(and the Centauras, he, he) want him. The chapters were good; I'm just not very comfortable with guy slash.

OMG! I get that you're trying to write about how Sev is crafty and trying  to make better the situation, but eww.

Ha ha ha! That was great. He gets out of Draco's clutches & gets to thumb his nose at Sirius, even beyond the veil!

100 housepoints to the House of Fawkes.Wicked as it is, the groping of Snape becomes quite hilarious. OK, the man is irrestible, but how he worms his way out of this, is sly indeed.The wild ladies of the wood were a bit overpowering, but within the castle sofar, he's quite the genleman (cough cough).Hermione will forgive him his lies, but will the Wolf do the same?

*tries to contain laughter*

 This is the 2nd (SS/HG) fic that I read in which someone within the story states the lie that Snape and Sirius were lovers.  The first story being titled "Lost and Found" on FF.net. (The story is a continuation of another story on the site called "Missing In Action", but it ignores the last  two sentences.)

You had me worried at the end of chapter 28. I thought Snape was actually going to start a relationship with Draco.  (That thought horrified me to no end.)  I'm glad that I was proven wrong.  

I eagerly await the next chapter. 

My, that Severus does pretend to get around, doesn't he? Two Malfoys and a Black...

Oh dear gods, this is hysterical.  Some of Snape's one-liners had me in stitches.  A SADDLE for Umbridge!!!  BWAHAHAHA!  Snape and Sirius as lovers!  *scream of hysterical laughter*  That's brilliant.

 But ooooh boy, Hermione's going to be in a snit when she finds out.  Not only FOUR Centaura, but Draco *too*?!  *wince* 

  Just as soon as Severus said, "My lover was killed last night... at the Ministry." I knew what you were going to do.

I had just taken the first sip of very hot tea, the cup still held over the keyboard ... it was a touch and go thing for a second or two. I managed to set the cup down and swallow the tea without nary a drop spewing all over my leather desktop, the keyboard or the telephone.

Aside from The Truth [review for Ch 28] - there was this way out. I will never doubt you again. You are perfection. Dare I admit it ... I am impressed, young Fawkes.

LOL, OMG!  The things Severus has to do.

Well it looks like that plot bunny is off and running a marathon!!!!  Holy Crap!!  I just read this chapter and teh last at the sam etime...wowwee you have had a productive week!Very interested to see how this will come back in Snape's face, hahahaha (laughing maniacly over here)-

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!  (I think that was the linguistic manifestation of a scream.) (Maybe a few more a's.)  Amazing twist.  How in the world do you sleep at night?  At least Sirius won't be barging into his office to yell at him for this, but if ever there was a reason for a ghost to haunt....  All brilliant, F7, just spectacular.  I was laughing out loud, and my 16 year old son wanted to know why, and I swear I could not bring myself to explain why sending the Toad a saddle was so funny.  He's rather innocent, for that age.  It didn't help that I couldn't stop giggling. 

Snape resolved to send the Toad a saddle for Christmas every year for the rest of her life.*SPEW*Am I a really bad person for almost wanting some Sev/Draco action?

LMAO! I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

lmao good god. He's digging a ditch isnt he?good update.

Uh Oh!  Somehow I see his decision to use Sirius as his get-out-of-jail-free card with Draco as coming back to bite him in the butt.  If nothing else this will be really interesting when Harry, Remus, and not to mention Hermione find out -- because of course everyone will find out.  Oh ***rubbing hands together*** this is getting SOOO good!  Thanks for sharing, JoAnne

The jury is still out on this... I am dreading how Hermione is going to feel about all of this. She will find out, you know; it leaves too big of a hole in the plot for her NOT to. I guess I am reacting to events in my own past that are far gone, yet forever too recent to forget.

Anyway, the Master of Deception has made it through again, even though probably not unscathed. Now, Draco will think that Snape cheated on Lucius with Black and hose Snape because NOBODY could keep a secret like THAT.

Lies just get deeper and deeper. So can plot twists.
