Reviews for Beyond All Doubt
I can't tell you how fast my heart was beating when we found out she needed to use Vertiserum. OMG! And the questions. It was absolutely killing me. Thank goodness for a happy ending to the chapter. Good luck on your exams and your lab paper. I'll be waiting eagerly for the update.
Another fabulous chapter. I love how Hermione handled herself during the questioning, especially that of Umbridge.
Sorry to hear that updates will not be as forthcoming, but schoolwork should absolutely be your first priority. Good luck on the exams!
Wow. You really have captured an original idea for bringing them together. And I'm so excited to read something fresh and new. Wonderful and well written; I can't wait for more.
What a wonderful, impassioned speech! And what a relief that he has been pardoned. Good luck with your classwork. I look forward to more when you have the time.
A wonderful chapter. I can't even explain how much I enjoyed it.Exams and lab reports are very important so I won't complain for the subsequent slowing of chapters from you -- MUCH. ^.~ I'll just enjoy the goodness that IS here and try to patiently calm myself in the wait for more.Thanks once again for this truly great story you're gifting us with and good luck with the schoolwork!
Wow, very nice! Looking forward to more.
Thank you so much for not making this a cliffhanger. I know this must be tempting for an author, but being constantly teased as a reader is frustrating indeed. Now I can patiently wait for an update.Oh, and don't we all just want to slap Umbridge.
Yeah! I knew Hermione would be able to save it somehow wow talk about grace under pressure! Good luck with your classes.
Good luck on your exams and school work. I have really enjoyed this story and will be very excited when you are able to update again. :)
Very nice payoff at the trial scene! Your story is compulsively readable, so it's hard to hear that RL is going to have the NERVE to interfere with updates :) But ain't that life? Best of luck with your exams.
Talk about under pressure. I'm sure Umbridge will manage to leak to the media HG's confession. I'm interested how SS will be once out.
Personally I'd rather you maintain the quality of the fic, rather than rushing the next chapter, though I'm cheering your RL won't interfere for too long. Good luck!
I am SO anxious to see what happens next!! Yeaaaa, he's free!!
Umbridge needs to take her wand and SHOVE IT!

Well said!
YAY!!!!! Great chapter! I like how Hermione just barely squeaks out "Yes" when asked those questions about Snape. Please update! Also, I'm adding this to my favorite story list.
Thank you for writing this beautiful story. Please, update when you can! I do a little chair dance everytime a see new chapter has been posted!
bahh, schoolwork, where are your priorities, sheesh. I love it so far. and am thankful you at least didn't leave us with a huge cliffy, waiting to find out if he was going to be set free or not. I wish you luck with your exams, and hope you can get back to writing pronto.
Severus has been acquitted -- WOOHOO! It will be very interesting to see how he responds to Hermione's little revelation, especially since it was somewhat mixed to say the least. She may be attracted to him and feel sympathy for him, but she's also made it clear that she doesn't much like him as a person -- and unfortunately, that isn't favorable for a long-term relationship. That's assuming, of course, that a relationship is still possible for Hermione and Severus. The attraction might be mutual, but Severus doesn't strike me as the type of man who will immediately leap into Hermione's arms simply because he's learned that she's attracted to him -- no Slytherin male, let alone the suspicious Potions Master, would let the object of his affections know that he could be had that easily, even if he'd lost his heart to her long ago. I wish that I could be more optimistic of Hermione's chances, but I think she still has a battle royal ahead of her if she wants to be with Severus.
Yippy! Uhm, I mean, that turned out okay even with her "less-than-objectiveness." Will they still sentence him for those other things????
Excellent chapter, very angsty and nerve racking to say the very least. I thought Hermione would pop an artery as she tried to circumvent the questions put to her. Good going, Hermione! But now that EVERYONE knows about her feelings for Snape, what will come about afterward? Interesting turn of events, don't you think?Good luck with your school exams and lab report... hope we get to see more soon after. Cheers!
Given the unfairness of Harry's trial in book five, I'm not that surprised that totaly irrelevant questions about Hermione's feelings have been allowed by the Wizengamot. Hermione has made very well, IMO.
Wow, good story, but Hermione was a little vindictive must hav been the stress. Hope you update soon!
This is powerful stuff. So rarely in this fandom does Hermione get disgusted/revolted/emotional about Snape's past - and she should be revolted, not just accepting and forgiving! I'm looking forward to reading where you take this.
Contrary to other reviewers, I see why she might choose to keep this pre-trial approach in Azkaban as neutral as possible. Otherwise her report could be later rendered invalid.
Also, as she knows well, he is not the type to trust easily. A more emotional attempt to reach him would have left her open to rejection.
The only question is whether the visual clues (glasses, dress, new found maturity) would be enough incentive for him to want to help himself at the trial and trust her later. Then again he is a tough character and he has been portrayed as such.
We will see.
After this hormonal immature totally idiotic behavior, she deserves to have Ron, not Snape in her bed and life. I would have expected her to reproach herself for not thinking in advance and bringing him some food and healing potions, not to add to his misery. Glasses and heals, indeed. A proper Lavender.
Well, poor Severus. I do hope he does not really care for her, and if he does, well, it is not such a big deal with everything that he is facing. Craving for a clever little witch who is no better than any other dunderhead when it really matters fits nicely into all the wrong choices he made so far.
OMG this story is FANTASTIC!You're doing such a wonderful job.m I'm on the edge of my sear here! can you update soon? Seriously, the fans beed feeding!Nice work!
