You have no idea how upset I felt when I realised this story had been abandoned -- and then how relieved I was that I'd been able to read it at all. Yes, sometimes they were OOC, but I love how you SHOWED so much instead of TELLING (especially between Hermione's feelings & Severus'), and how you set up a fantastic prophecy w/ the foreshadowing.Thank you for keeping this story up so I could still enjoy it (even if unfinished). :D

Although this story had already been abandoned I read it anyway as its a marriage contract prompt.  Yes SS is quite OOC but the story line has interesting ideas - shame its been abandoned I would have kept going with this one

I'm so glad they all are safe except Neville but I'm confident in his awakening. I do hope that Harry will chose the right path or they all will be in deep trouble, again. Thank you for this most awaited and appreciated update. I saw by perusing the reviews that RL has not been kind thesepast months and I hope that it gets better with time. *hugs*

I hope this means you'll be updating frequently again?? love this story

gosh, i would think putting her into the sun would have made her greener!  what an amazing update.  i do hope neville pulls out of his coma.  thanks and mucho smoochies

LOve it hope you aren'y done yet!

Kudos to you, tesh!  This chapter is a whale of a way to get back into the story.  I was giddy when I saw that you had updated.  I have missed this story so, and I just need to say thank you for continuing with it.In the aftermath, the battle seemed to leave its mark on everyone, but Harry's injuries are especially egregious.  Hermione knows that the prophesy must have been talking about Harry, but I wonder if she realizes that she will be key to helping Harry heal from this mind meld with Tom's memories.  Are the Jotun the "givers of life" mentioned in the prophesy?  Is Hermione a "giver of life?"  The "answer" must be in the box the "onyx-skinned warrior with hair of slithering adders" gave to Alexandra for Hermione.  I can't wait to find out what her birthright is.  Is she an Atlantean?  So many questions!!!This story has moved to a whole new level, and I am so looking forward to seeing where you will take it!Beth

I like the idea of Harry's new look. I doubt Ginny will be able to handle it (does Harry have Horcrux Tom's memories of 11yr old Ginny as well?) even if she does want his fame and money. Someone like Luna would be able to handle it though - hmm.

I like the idea of Hermione being photosynthetic, but if she was, why didnt the doctors move her into the light earlier? Were they afraid she'd start sprouting leaves? :)

Wonder what the medusa gave Hermione.

Loved the length of the chapter.

Too much Ron time.

Really wierd stuff going on with Harry.  Hopefully he doesn't turn into the next Dark Lord.

OK, you have made my mental image of Harry really creepy.  i'm glad that most of them are awake, though.

Girl, I totally love your Hufflepuff-in-a-mirror! Helga don' get no respect.

Oh dear dear dear.  What will they do.I am intrigued.  I love these marriage law stories.  I like it that Snape is not indignant and trying to refuse for Hermione's own good at this point.  It was his idea.  It isn't often his idea in these things.I will keep reading.  Please finish the story or I shall run mad.

that was an absolutely terrifying battle, altho i did like the pinkish eggs.  superb update.  thanks so much

No No not there! But ahh cliffies make it brilliant.

AAAAHHHH you're evil. Pure evil.. but i still love your story anyway.

oh it's getting good - keep up the lovely story!!!

I thought the way you wrote Albus' reunion with Sophia and Alexandra was just right.  An illustration of a vivisected Muggle?  Gross!  No wonder Hermione lost her interest in reading.  Severus was kind to suggest they go to the lake.The carpet ride and the enchanted trees are wonderful.  Wouldn't it be great if we could have things like that?  Very useful.  But the most extraordinary application of magic was the Bubble-Head Charm that Severus used to protect his pelvis.  Wonderful use of magic, I'd say!!!But the time for honeymooning is fast coming to a close.  The Dark Lord has called his minions and the Ministry is under attack... and Dumbledore is visiting the Amazons... but that's better than being TDY somewhere else because he is with the Amazons and is much closer to Severus and Hermione than he would be were he in Britain.O yeah, and there's that little matter about Severus and Hermione consummating their marriage... by now EVERYBODY in the Order has heard the news.A lot has happened in this chapter, and I can't wait to see what happens next.Beth

wow...interesting mental picture.  what a unique use for the bubble head charm!  but what now?  thanks so much

Whew, what a chapter! Funny ideas, cool inventions, suspense... but the application of the bubble head charm is absolutely brilliant! :o))))

Author's Response: hee hee! Thanks!

Oh man, it sounds like it's all hitting the fan. I liked the meeting between AD and Alexandra. The feelings they felt were well written.

WHAT !!! Just a tiny little attack is ruining an absolutely wonderful afternoon of delightful pleasures. Really, Voldithing and his Death Eater have no sense of good manners. *smirk*

Okay, big battle scene ahead...

Ha Ha wait until Molly finds out! Look forward to more.

Ruh roh.  That's not good, especially with Dumbledore away and reaquainting with his daughter.  Glad he took it so well, by the way.

Looks like this is gonna be a short honeymoon!
