That was a lovely chapter. 

I am enjoying this story very much, it is much more light hearted than many other stories about this pairing. I did notice a flaw however, how could she have cast an ampliflying charm on his bedroom door? She is incapable of performing magic and has no wand. Keep up the great work!

Hi,I like this story very much and it is always a joy to see anther chapter appear!! But in this chapter there is a error that you must correct. Hermione have lost her abilities right? But, in the first paragraph you made her use a charm... Maybe she could have use a WWW product or some muggle trick instead? That for you to correct as you see fit, just some suggestions to help! Hope to see another great chapter soon!!

Yay!  They're awake!!!!

I loved the bit about the house at Grimmauld Place... very poetic, colourful, and humorous!  Great chapter.

Oh my goodness, that was heartbreaking.*off to read the next*

spanking the monkey. ROFLMAO!You know, they had best start lusting openly for each other or they will just be friends. There is a window of opportunity where familiarity decreses the chance for romance. I hope the next chapter will have some sexual tension, not just joking about with friends, at least that is my wish.Thanks!Livvy

Um...Concerned that he might be unwell, but not wanting to open the door in view of her previous experience, she cast an amplifying charm on the door.

i just love their banter.  you have such a talent for dialogue both inner and outer.  thanks so much

This is a fun read. I really like the friendship they have developed. Can't wait for the next update!

LOL nope!  You can't blame the man at all!

I love the way you have written the banter between Severus and Hermione.  They seem very relaxed with each other and don't even realize that they are growing closer and how hard it will be to part when Hermione is whole again.  At least that is how I am seeing it play out.  Of course I could be totally off base, but won't it be fun finding out.  Thanks for posting, JoAnne

The end of that was really amusing. 

I have been reading this all along and I am sorry I haven't reviewed before. I love the concept, and your writing (whoever you are!) is brilliant! And of course it's SS/HG, which means I would read it no matter what!

Beautifully written - your style is vaguely familiar... almost bird-like in nature, and yet grounded.  ;-)(That's going to sound REALLY odd if you're not who I think you are!)Either way... lovely chapter.  Well done!!

Bound means it's not gone ... so there might be hope yet! Semi-hoping it'll take a bit more time to find a cure though - enough to have Hermione realise Ron's the only worthy male out there. ;-)

Oh, that ending was hilarious.  I really like their banter together.  I'm eager to see what this next trip into the Pensieve will bring.  It was nice to see them reassuring each other in the first trip.

Bound has to be better than gone.  I hope they can figure it out.  Do they have access to other books?  I wonder where Voldie found the potion to begin with.  Eagerly looking for the next installment.

Purely genius.

Nope, can't blame him at all! My husband always says every tease or joke is 50% truth. So, yeah, he was joking... right. :) Hmmm. Friends, huh? Hopefully more!?

????? I just had to make sure I have my glasses on - was this Severus Snape joking? And taking a joke about himself without getting a seizure? Very OOC, but funny...

Interesting happenings going on here.  I thought it was particularly telling that they were able to deduce that Hermione's magic had not been removed but that it had only been bound.  It is still there, they just need to figure out what the potion was that DL had used and Severus could brew the antidote.Their shared journey into her memory of the night that Voldemort forced her to drink the potion was quite satisfying to me because it lead to their depending on each other to gain the strength for Severus to observe Nagini and Hermione to witness her suffering Voldy's Crucio curse and being Imperioed to drink the evil potion.Their light banter at the end of the chapter is fun, and I detected Severus' laying the foundations for wooing her as time passes:  “Come along, old man. Let’s get you into bed,” she teased.He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively and growled, “Your place or mine, little girl?”For that he received a sound whack on the arm and no help at all in climbing the stairs.“Can’t blame a man for trying,” he grumbled, extinguishing the lights.I love your tale, and can't wait for the next update!Well Done!!!Beth

Great story.  I like the way the characters interact.  I'm guessing any romance will have to wait until she gets her powers back.

Another wonderful chapter. I especially like Severus' explanation to Hermione his thoughts and feelings after waking in the hospital and how he made the decision to be thankful for living through the final battle. It really humanized his character.

I hope we'll soon get to see his reaction when she takes him up on the offer!:-)
