This is so good. He can be so cute when he wants. As for Draco and Narcissa I can't imagine if they're sincere or not. Future events will let us know.

UGH!!!  This is too much!  another great chapter, and nasty cliffy.

This is getting serious and quite interesting. The Malfoy family or at least part of it seems to be changing side or am I wrong? Let's see that in the next ...

Is Severus beginning to feel some sort of fatherly pride for Harry? After all it's not the first time he is impressed by Harry's abilities. That could be very much interesting. I'd like to add that even of I don't say it at every review, I really love your work. Thanks for it

Great chapter, I love the spell work you made.  Just to let you know I won't be in town for a few days so if any authors don't get reviews for a couple of days the word is out so to speak.  But I am looking forward to comming home and finding stories!

As you said Really Great misunderstandings? Fortunately everything seems to go well.

You have been forgiven for the nasty cliffy in the last chapter.  Thank you so much for putting Ginny and Harry back together.

excellent!  i'm loving this story.  thank so much

Love Hermoine's saying, "Severus, you better go, she looked pretty angry." Understatement there. Oh, and then she does something stupid like that. Oy.Great chapter.Truly

It seems Harry finally manage to learn some interesting things. And first of all respect towards Severus. As for Hermione SHE IS SO STUPID. everyone could see that is was dangerous to came in that evil librabry. Woman and curiosity. Hope now that Severus will hear her yells through the walls ... if that's possible of course. Let me finish by telling you that these two last chapters were immensely fabulous. I've already read some of your others fic and you're really a very great author. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.

Hey when and where at Pheonix? I am going and don't want to miss it!

I'm glad he told her the truth even if I think after reading some reader's point of view of the previous chapter and Severus' that she deserves what happens. No one couldnt force anyone to tell such things. And that duel is extraordinary. and then in the middle of an impassionning battle my wonderful mailbox just informs me that there already is a new chapter available. Thank you and thank you so much to the administrators for validating so fast.

Of course Hermione had to let her curiosity of the dark books cloud her judgement.  She's definitely right about Severus being furious with her. He told her to stay away from them for a specific reason.  There's no telling what those books will do now.  I really enjoyed the rest of the match between Severus and Harry. I never thought Harry would have it in him to cast the Cruciatus, but he did it.  He's definitely several steps in the right direction.

I'm glad Severus went after Hermione. I didn't think he would so soon after the confrontation.  I must admit, his forcefulness made my knees melt. He is also definitely enjoying free reign over Harry. I'm looking forward to seeing what type of damage they do outside.

Great chapter, but - uh-oh, why can't Hermione stop being such a nosy little Gryffindor?  She's in deep water this time...

ooh!  What a nasty little cliffy.  I can't wait for the next chapter.  Snape is really getting more distructive.  I hope Harry gets off his rump and fights back!

renovation indeed. Excellent.Looking forward to the next oart.Truly

Ooh, very good chapter.  I love the heated exchange between Hermione and Severus, and I felt like I was in the midst of the duel between Harry and Snape.  Excellent!

OH! Excellent, excellent, excellent Chapter!!  Evil bent Snape at his best... LOVE IT!  "Hermione caught that look in Severus' eyes. It reminded her distinctly of someone about to disobey."   My favorite line of the chapter, i can see it clearly in my mind's eye. 10 + for this chapter, Bravo!  More soon?  Cheers!

amazing story.update very soon please!

Wow.  Just... wow.  You've really managed to catch that feeling of intensity and the situation they are in is so highly charged.  I could feel it in my bones...   And then, the end, it's so... sharp.  I can't really explain what I mean by that.  It's like there's this release of the tension, but then it comes back to snap you.

I'm breathless.

Excellent chapter!  But poor Hermione - the timing just wasn't there, was it?  Perhaps soon...

I am sorry for not leaving a review before (at least I don't think I have ^_^), but I would like to say that I am thoroughly enjoying this story! You are an excellent writer, and I hope you keep up the wonderful work!

I'm glad the spell was so successful. However, I'm rather disappointed that Severus lied to Hermione about his feelings for her.  She really loves him, and to only be called a friend must be heart-breaking for her. I wonder if she'll stop being his nurse as a result, or if she will distance herself from him because of what he said to her. I understand he was scared of his feelings, so he denied them, but he wound up hurting the both of them in the process.

Minority me here, I'm sure, but I think she deserves what she got.  Anyone with any sense of honor would consider it wrong to force such personal truths out of a physically and emotionally damaged person like that.  I've been disappointed that Hermione (supported fully by Minerva and Poppy) would take advantage of Severus' situation here.  Respect and compassion rather than exploitation of illness and a potion-induced vulnerability would have been a better course of action, but admittedly probably not as entertaining for us readers ... IMHO.  I do like the story very much and am trusting in the happy ending.  Thanks for your work!
