I have no idea what I would really be... My grades have never been up to Ravenclaw standerds. When faced with hard work I run as fast as possible. As for bravery for the most I can scrape up is calm under difficult situations and for Slytherin I am not so self serving....Go figure. Ravenclaws do it by the book! 

Nerds Rule!

I don't think tapping your lip would be very safe when you work with potions but maybe he was working on a lust potion, or at least infatuation.

I love learning new stuff. It makes me so less guilty feeling for reading wonderful smut! I did like the idea of deatheater groupies. Of course I would be one, the bad guys always have the best outfits!

I love it an eybrow code dicitionary!

I really enjoy reading this from two perspectives.Good job!

We sure are contrary as a whole we would like to be asked for our hand in marriage as something big but don't want to be put on the spot. I was just at a HP con, and the couple that dressed as Remus and Tonks all weekend, at the dance he asked her to marry him. The DJ was involved and announced it. Everyone went gooey. It was very romantic I turned to my signficant other and said too bad most marrriages split up after two years. He laughed BTW he was the only deatheater at the dance and it was very surreal to see him do the time warp. Great story I'm really digging it thank you so much for saving my sanity and being my refuge in my insane life. You Rock!

I just can not believe I stayed up half the night to read this (changing archives as I just had to finish it). It has been a long time since a fic has caught my attention like that. Truly unussual, fantastically well written and wonderfully told. Particularly his journey froum suave lover of Tonks to a man in love was superbly told. It is official: I have myself a new favorite author!

Ah, lovely! I have really enjoyed this fic, ubi! I hate to see it end, but I do love the way it ended! Can't wait for your next one!

"a scent never captured in the Pensieve"Merlin, did he go over that memory in the Pensieve to stave himself off of her physical self? How hot.

Oh this was marvellous! I could hardly tear my eyes from the computer screen as I read this story. Words can not express how much I enjoyed it... I am speechless!Thank you so very much for writing it.Sonia :)

Oh my GOSH! Who the heck proposes in front of the entire world? Ron is so thick. Poor Hermione, what else could she say?

This is truly refreshing. The implied sexual tension between Hermione and Severus is delicious. I am ready to forge ahead in reading this story however, I had to pause you let you know how much I am enjoying it.Thank you. Sonia :)

Absolutely fantastic, I have just read this from the begining, all in one sitting.  I liked the way both Hermione and Severus had their own PoV chapters.

What's left to say? Completely satisfying and wonderful ending -- the tender, affectionate codas to both of these final chapters were an inspired touch.

P.S. It's interesting to think about reading the story from only POV, although it seemed that the dueling points of view created a certain plot tension together that would be missing if you concentrated on only one.

Whew!  *fans self* Bloody hell, what a ride!!!  Loved the back-and-forth format - what a terrific story!

This chapter was totally unique and unusual.  I was glad to see your a/n about 'research' because by the time I got to the end I was wondering 'is this really what a man feels?'  I've enjoyed this story so much.  Thanks for sharing it.  I'll be watching to see what you create next.  ~

Holy shite, woman... that was INCREDIBLY hot. I always adore Severus POV... I really do... how enjoyable!Good going on the research, I really did feel like I was in his brain 24-7 throughout this story... an impressive feat for a woman to get so fully into his mind. Well done!

*nods in a scholarly fashion*

Yes, I had wondered if you had researched.

This was a sizzling hot end to the sizzling hot beginning - lovely, my dear, and very well done.  Bravo! 

Thank you for such a wonderful story.  I loved the dual points of view.  Your tension building was exquisite.  Your swotiness(?) paid off in the final chapter, it was quite compelling.

As always, I continue to adore your experimentation with POV and form! Another chapter that was absolutely wonderful.

Severus POV was incredible to read. And everything was so real. Very, very real. Which is probably also thanks to you research! I think that was smart of you to conduct research :) Definitely made the chapter even better than it already was.

And... Is this the end? Truly? If it is, I'm both sad and elated. Sad that it's coming to an end because it was such a delight to read. But elated that it's a wonderful, smutty happy ending! :)

Well done! 

Wonderful from start to finish, with some very sweat-inducing passages :)

So much accomplished while I was out of town, and now it's over! :( Wonderful job with the ending, though. As I was reading, I was thinking, "wow, I thought this author was a chick, now I'd swear it's a guy!" Send some of the review-chocolate to your friend for answering those questions, it really gave the story something extra, and I felt like it was totally in character for Severus to be so analytical, even during sex. Great job, thanks for sharing this with us.

Absolutely wonderful and I love the happy ending.  What a nice note to end on-they are both happy, sated, and it seems that they love each other. We can all imagine the love and sex and happy together for ever they are going to share. It's amazing how with the ending you managed to convey all that with just the way they were so happy to see each other in the morning with no regrets on either side. And these last two chapters were hotter than hell. Bravo and thanks for an amazing read.

Wonderful story. Thank you.
