Alan Rickman obsessed ex-civil servant now living the good life in France. I only write in the good ship SS/HG. However, if you think that the only way these two can get together is by some sort of forced marriage, 'binding' or whatever, don't read my stories. You will be disappointed.

Thank goodness that Severus figured out what Burbage was up to in time to save the children in Slytherin House... only to be cursed by the no good rat.I hope Severus will be all right, and that Burbage will get what he deserves.This was an action packed chapter, and I'm really looking forward to your next update.Beth

Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)

Response from morgaine_dulac (Reviewer)
Oh I WILL wait!!
How could you leave us hanging like that??? Great chapter! Can't wait to find out what happens next.
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
Thank you
HOW COULD YOU DO THAT!!! What a cliffie. Damn...that was exciting. Please tell me he is not dead! And BURBAGE, YOU ROT IN HELL!
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
sorry - you'll have to wait until the next chapter to find out.
action - packed! Wow!which cursewhichcursewhichcurse? many technical detail I don't seem to understand. and what is Mr Vasey doing there? him getting caught on the same spot twice? so he was up to no good?the wards had been negelcted or destroyed? by Burbage. he wants them to drown. wahh. awful death. but our hero of the day/ night came for their rescue. I hope he managed to rescue them.The water will not stop streaming in, will it?at least they have to run for the secret tower now. and burbage must hang. hehe
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
Vaisey was simply trying to gain his attention by acting very unslytherin and giving him hints about the dampness in the dorms - he couldn't tell him directly because of the oath to his head of house.Bit more on what Burbage was up to next chapterthe water can't get into the actual common room as it is part of the castle and protected by its wards
Burbage needs to rot in Azkaban for all eternity for what he tried to do to Slytherin House and what he did do to Severus! Attacking an exhausted man with a child in his arms; Burbage is every bit a monster as the Death Eaters that killed his sister for committing such a heinous act. How ironic that Burbage ended up becoming so much like what he always despised. Rather like absolute power, I'd say absolute hatred corrupts absolutely.
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
Yes, you're right. It does.
Oh dear, what is that supposed to be? I can understand that Burbage hates Snape, but why put innocent children in danger?
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
More on that next chapter.Thanks for reviewing
That Burbage had to be bad. :)
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
He has issues, certainly ;)
AIEEEEEE!!!! 
get back here and write the next chapter, dangit!! I sure hope "what goes around..." comes around to drown BURBAGE. ooh, I'm so mad at him!!!! (glares at Melusin) FIX THIS NOW!!!!
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
LOL. I'll get right on it
Oh, you didn't killl him, right? Nasty Burbage. Maybe the spell bounced off of Severus and landed onto him? Update soon, I can't take the suspense.
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
You'll have to wait and find out. Will update asap.
Oh, my gosh. This was a gasp-out-loud marathon. The unraveling of the Slytherin House mystery was ingenious, and then you go end the thing on the ultimate cliffie. Please say the next chapter is coming soon.
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
Thank you.I hope you won't have to wait too long.
Ooooh, the nasty--! Quick, post the next chapter! I'm on pins and needles! This is an excellent story!
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
Thank you
Burbage is evil!! Only children, and they've been treated like that. Horrid. Excellent read, though. I was seeing a real 'Titanic' moment! LOL
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
Yeah - a bit more on his motives next chapter.I've never seen the film - but I can see where you're coming from :)
What the HELL??? Burbage, you stinking lying cheating dishonest heartless hopeless son of a bitch!!!!Oooh, Hermione is going to kill Burbage...but what shall become of Severus?
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
You'll have to wait and see
Meli how could you leave us this way? Severus falling into brackish waters craddling an innocent first year cursed by that loathsome Burbag! I refuse to believe the villian might get away. There are too many wand holders around. He must be punished for trying to murder all those children!!! Hell hath no fury like Hermione! I hope she nails his hide to the floor and then some. Grrrrrrrrrrrr 
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
I'm sorry. I honestly didn't expect to finish there - I'd hoped to get to the end this time.Not much more to go, though.
Response from MollysSister (Reviewer)
"Not much more to go, though." Now that puts a little dread in my mood. Yes I want to get the resolution of the story/Burbag's death on the other hand I will be sad to end a great story. Its so difficult to keep the fangirls happy isnt it? 
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
Especially when said fangurls demand Needs Must and Epiphany at the same time :)
Response from MollysSister (Reviewer)
Guilty as charged.
Argh... Well you definitely know how to write a cliffhanger and get us to check in - ALL THE TIME. Good thing I get an email everytime you update. Only, that just makes me check my email more often. LOL Great chapter! Poor Severus, always having such a hard time and he can't even get any stress relief from Hermione. I have to know what happens to him and that idiot Burbage - may he rot in Hell! And what's going to be with the castle - did the invisible shield burst when Burbage cursed Snape? I can't wait to see what happens next. Please update SOON!
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
Thank you. No, the water can't get into the castle proper
Very, very evil. Although I get the feeling you enjoyed it... ;)
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
Of course. Villains are always fun to write
Gahh! Update soon! Update SOON! Must know what happens next!
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
Thank you. I'll do my best.
OMG If I could put my hands around Burbage right now... Please God, Err Dear Author, don't let him die.
Response from melusin (Author of What Goes Around....)
OOh, the power, the power. You'll have to come back to find out his fate.
