I love the sweet stuff for dessert after the angst-ridden meal you served.  Great job.  I love weddings.

LOL Snooping on the Tea shop was cute, and the idea of Severus Snape shopping for sweets. But I have to say, the 'treasure' at the willow was lovely. But really the best part was Sybill's responce!

I wish some men I know would have Ron's experience with Hermione. 

Oh lo, How low can Ron crawl? I mean how mean and insensitive!  Good thing Severus was there to smooth things over. I was so proud of Hermione for standing up to him, but the sad part is, ROn will forget most of it as soon as he mounts his broom!  I mean, dang girl, She should have sent it as a Howler to arrive int he locker rooms as he's changing for a game. At least, his team mates could get a good chuckle!

Fabulous!! Can Ron get the 'Magical Clap' from one of his Quidditch groupies??? He deserves it! =]

I was sort of hoping Hermione would hex Ron, but it might be better if Ron's harem hexed him instead.  Nice that Severus witnessed it while staying out of it, letting Hermione handle it herself but with him knowing what happened.  Thanks for updating!

Very entertaining!  I'm glad Hermione didn't loose her spark.

Ron should have been hexed.

true, but i would have loved to see her hex ron and then severus hex him, too!  lovely update, my delightful deb.  thanks so much                                     (me blowing kisses)

The world is a better place, not because Albus is the Minister of Magic, but because you revived Severus from the dead!  Ron's visit was worthwhile for Hermione to see how controlling and superficial he is, and it demonstrates how wonderful Severus is.  *Sigh*  I just lurv this story.

Oh this was awesome. I never pictured Ron as being so full of himself. I guess being a famous Quidditch player will do that to you. Bravo to Hermione and Severus for not stooping to his level and hexing him. I agree he will find someone who is always telling him how great he is and then he may be happy.Great as usual, Kim

reassurance was just what she needed! :)

great story and can't wait to read more and find out about Ron's visit.

Wow, That was awesome.  I'm so glad you worked that one out.  I would have been so upset if they just lived happily every after in the beyond.  Thanks for the wonderful update and I can't wait to see what happens next!  Much Love ~ Karen

perfect!  thanks so much, my deb!                         (me blowing kisses)

Sorry about the rock, I was really aiming at those large mosquitos. . . .  yah, the mosquitos. . .

Great chapter, I am so curious as to who will become the next Minister of Magic. I was also very happy to read about Severus and his 2nd chance at living.

Wow! Spent the weekend and today reading this; absolutely loving it! Can't wait till the next installment!Pyro

and this would be a mega-evil cliffie if i didn't know what was up.  thanks so much my lovely deb!                                     (me blowing kisses)

A day of feverish reading, and at least I am thankful not to be left with a stone cold dead Snape for my troubles.  This story is great, I am loving it.  It seemed to take me forever to get through Hermione growing up, poor Snape stuck on the slow path.  Quite surprised not to run across any smut here, as well - of course, that just might be telling of my reading habits of late! *g*  Anyway, this is terrific, keep it up, and thanks for taking the time for showing us the fics in your head.  Makes for enjoyable reading.

See! Knew I could trust you! :)

That was very original, the way you brought him back.  Good show, otherwise I don't think I could take it.....

Phew! Thank goodness for that... and I never, ever thought I would warm to Lily Evans, but thank goodness for her too...

You know that was a very clever use of the life debt, and the afterlife. I was pleased that he had that talk with Lily and that because of her connectin to Harry, could use the life debts to send him back. Way to go.

That was a lovely, touching solution to the nasty dilemna you created in the last chapter. *Reviewer gently admonishes author, but with great respect and admiration.*  I will sleep well tonight knowing you brought Severus and Hermione one step closer to the happy ending.  You are forgiven, Debjunk.  However, I don't think I can withstand the grief of an evil cliffie like that again.
