this is a great story, i can't wait to read more!

I think that it is fantastic that Hermione is helping to heal Snape up, getting him something to wear other than rags, and even offered to assist him in purchasing a new wand; especially when he smiled after she promised the last bit.;~D~*~*~WooHoo, Snape to the rescue--I love it!Wanting only to skate through life with the minimum amount of effort, Whineybutt Tard-Boy (a.k.a. Ronald Weasley), errs grievously in his attempt to make life cushy again, by manhandling Hermione during his begging her to take him back.  What a douche-bag!  Good riddance to bad rubbish!;~p~*~*~Great chapter--keep up the good work!

I like Hermione's whole attitude of "I'm going to keep you against your wishes, until you are healthy, so NAH!"LOL

Anton...what's up with that guy? I'm suspicious. Ron, Ron, Ron, where did you go wrong? Eagerly waiting for romance or a least a little snog (between Snape and Hermione, that is).Great chapter,Livvy

Very interesting to have Ron show up at this point in the story.  I'm wondering if he will continue to be a pain.  I was a bit shocked to see that Hermione erased his memory it doesn't seem like her.  But for the life of me I can't remember if her distaste for memory modification is canon or not.  I do think that the scene fit in well with the story however and thank heavens she had Severous to step in for her.

I love how practical Hermione is in her development of spells as in the translation type--very well thought out, good job!I wonder why it was that Professor Snape thought that it was a good idea at the time to wipe Hermione, Harry, and Ron's memory of his "dying" at the Shrieking Shack.What on earth is it about Hermione that would cause him to wig-out, and run as if the hounds of Hades were after him?I'm glad that Hermione is taking a hand in taking care of him.Well done, keep up the good work.  I can't wait to read more!

Nice story. Hope to read more soon!

Very intriguing start.  Look forward to more.

I hope you will see fit to tell us how Severus wound up homeless soon.  This is too incredible.

OH great job!!! Hope there's more soon!!

I got a chuckle out of the Snape sightings being similiar to Elvis Presley sightings and/or U.F.O. sightings.  I believe that that is the reasone that Hermione doesn't believe that he is still alive.I'm glad that Hermione has a good head on her shoulders; she realized (early enough in the relationship) that things aren't working out, before making the mistake of getting married and cranking out babies.Good first chapter!

Oh my:) This is really interesting. I love the detail you put into the descriptions, I can "see" the places and rooms in my mind's eye.Warm regards,Fizzabella

This is so good! Your word imagery is rich and elegant, and the way she found him was very exciting! I can't to see where you take this!Livvy

This is a great story so far....I'm really enjoying it! LOL at Ron wearing his tightie whities more than once. I look forward to the next chapter.

Ron is an idiot!  And seems a bit unstable as well...Loved this bit:  “Could you, um, hit his face a few times? I added on a little . . .”  And Severus' quick compliance too.  *snickers*

Hopefully Ron got the message!

She is taking charge, whether he likes it or not!

... Fancy meeting you here!

Poor Severus, it seems that he self inflicted his own brand of punishment.  Very interesting P.O.V.

This is going to be good! Can't wait for the next chapter. Livvy

I really do like this story so far... There is a sort of build up and tension between the two of them right now, and I'm really excited to see if Snape will open up to her at all through time.Hope that you update soon!

Glad you updated this VERY good story. More soon, I hope!

Great tension and release and then more tension in this chapter.  The revealed secret was a very nice touch.

That was a very unexpected introduction to Snape!  I'm nearly on the edge of my seat now to find out what he's going to say.  I'm enjoying this very much.

Very interesting beginning.  We are so mean to poor Ron sometimes, but I like the idea of Hermione making a clean break at this point and heading out :)
