A drunken Sybil and unwanted cupping..... *Shudders*

I am so glad Severus has finally been able to open up to some one, and confess how he is feeling. Maybe now he can start to heal.

I wonder what made Snape suddenly interested in Hermione when he was so completely wraped up in his loss of Lily.

Very interesting to see Severus so uncomfortable having the Birds and the Bees talk!

I am glad Harry managed to get away to give the memories back. I though Snape may be more receptive to Harry now, but I guess some prejudices are too deep to overcome quickly.

Ok, so I know Ginny has a. Lot on her plate right now, but Hermione does not desrve to be treated like that. They are all healing and finding themselves after the war. It seems like Ginny is blaming Hermione for everything that is going on.

Very well done! I loved that they are now married. I love that Severus had that talk with Harry, I am sure Severus needed that talk too, he just didn't know he did. For Ron, well he has always been a prat, and will continue to be so, if anything he has proven one more time how rigth Hermione was to leave.Last, but not least: Wonderful chapter, I loved it:-))

Somehow I knew that Ron wasn't going to be gracious when he heard the news.  Taking one last jab at Hermione was right in line with his character.  What an ass!  Anyways, Severus did very well making Harry realize that his life is to be lived and that his responsibilities are to himself and his family.  I'm so happy that Severus and Hermione married!!!  I'm looking forward to the adoption and pending birth very much.  Fantastic update!  :D 

Good one, Harry! :)

Very nicely done.  You handled some delicate subjects with grace, decorum and believability.

I'm surprised Eugene didn't hex Ron with accidental magic.  Or that Molly and Arthur wouldn't stop him from behaving like such a boor.

I couldn't have been happier that Severus and Hermione decided to marry right away, and having Eugene be his best man would have made the young man feel completely wanted and loved.  It was a very nice touch.

Severus' talk with Harry was crucial to Harry's being able to begin to rebuild his life.  I'm so happy that Severus shared his thoughts and his thanks with the young man.  Just knowing that his professor didn't hold any animosity toward him was extremely healing.  The gift Harry gave Severus', his wand as good as new, was the best thing he could have done for him, and once again Severus could feel his magic.  I think the return of his wand was as important to Severus' ability to regain his stability as having Harry return his memories and Hermione destroy the mirror was.

It was good to see the warm welcome that Ginny, Arthur, and Molly showed the Snapes when they arrived at the Burrow.  It was a shame that Severus and Hermione felt it necessary to leave before dinner, but Ron completely ruined what could have been a good reunion for everyone.  I swear, I think Ronald Weasley is beyond help.  He had always been one to sulk if he didn't get his way, and finding out that Hermione and Severus were married didn't improve his outlook on the world at all.  Will he never figure it out?  Will he never understand that trouble doesn't find him; rather he is the one who courts trouble by his selfishness and unwillingness to take anyone else's feelings into consideration?  Apparently not.

I'm still in love with your story, and am very much looking forward to the next chapter!  When I see that you have posted an update, it just makes my day!  Thank you.

you know...i know a clever little charm that can disquise porcupines as pillows... i could quite easily set one on ron, if ya like...i mean...you could always think it was a prank...children you know...~nods~

It figures that Ron would show up early knowing Hermione would be there and promptly ruin the visit by attacking her for having the temerity to leave him. What an unbelievable selfish git! If there's any justice, Ron will end up with some kind of S&M witch who treats him to the kind of pain he took pleasure in dishing out to Hermione.But I'm glad that Severus made the effort to get through to Harry, who seems to be almost as damaged as Severus was, albeit in a different way. Hopefully, Severus' words are enough to kick Harry out of his funk and motivate him to move on.

I very much enjoyed this chapter, really a good story and I need to go back ad review this story. I apparently have forgotten where Eugene came from. I must have this story mixed with another. Really loved the last part with the wand. Great scene.

WOW.  What an awesome chapter.  Well worth the wait.  I like that you have keep Snape as close to cannon as possible and this chapter just brought it out.  I am glad that he confronted Harry to help ease Harry's guilt I hope that Harry can move on from this and start to live again.  Ron need to grow up and get a life.  I liked that Severus was upset that Ron had upset Hermione and the first thing he did was go to her and then berated Ron.  I will look forward to the next update.  Kuddo's

Wonderful chapter, and Harry returning the repaired wand at the end was just the cherry on top.

That was really nice. Well, not the Ron part, but what could we expect from him. Glad you made everyone else decent to Snape.

Awwwww a very sweet chapter with a perfect dash of drama thrown in for good measure. I liked the interraction between Snape and Harry, and I have no criticims :) Thanks for sharing! A~

Yay, another update!  I loved hearing that Severus is going to talk to Harry.  And Omg, I'm so jealous she's pregnant!  I can't wait to see what happens next!  Thanks for posting.  Much Love ~ Brena

Thank you so much for a truly brilliant chapter! I am so happy for the way you make Severus feel loved, wanted and accepted, it makes my toes curl in joy:-))

Oh wow, Hermione really gave it to him. I was glad that he at least heard and listened to what she'd said. A baby? Really? Severus a father?  cooool!

Typical male, so proud to be "fruitful" LOL :)

That was lovely.  I'm glad they got over their disagreement.  He's finally realizing what it's like to be cherished.

That was intense, and I'm glad they got through their argument.

Wow, Severus was certainly smug about getting Hermione pregnant so quickly.  Must be a man thing.  Hopefully it will be a daughter.  I always wanted a daughter, but I have two boys.

Awwww wow - who would have thought she'd be in the family way so soon :p Nice chapter - looking forward to more.A~
