great work.  I love how effortless you write, the idea of Hermione scheming quietly in the background and Severus relaxing only in her company is quite compelling.  please keep up your writing.

Excellent intrigue!

I'm so glad that he can use her intel and the rumors that she and her friends have started to his advantage. So they can work together to bring the Dark Lord's empire down. This is great news.

Love it.

I am so glad to see an update. The two of them working 'togerther' will be great!

I was so afraid he was going to be upset with her for playing the game.  I found the fact that what they have may just be a survivors bond, a really realistic thought, but sad that she is feeling as if he will eventually leave her.  I suspect though, that if we were privy to his thoughts, they would be identical to hers.  I hope that he can come back soon, and until then, this time together will just have to be enough.  I have a feeling big things are coming soon... I'm on the line as to whether I think those will be good or bad things.  Update soon pretty please!

Excellent.  The girls are working well as spies. :)

outstanding, they are so beautiful together, they really do complete each other. 

That was an amazing chapter. So much information. So much emotion. I felt my heart ache for both of them.I'm so glad they have found each other. This is a fascinating story. I can hardly wait to see where you go with it.

I would like to thank you for writing a multi-chaptered SS/HG story.  For a while it seemed as if the bunny fountain had dried up for the fandom, and I am glad to see more stories!

Severus is the perfect spy but the cost has been so high, for the both of them, really.  I like how you tell us what happened during Harry's downfall.  I enjoy your writing.  I couldn't tell you what makes your writing so good but I love your stories.  thanks for the update!

Am I obligated to say, "I love this chapter" each time, or is it just understood that I always find them to be perfect?! "What can I get you?" he asked. "Occlumency lessons?" I shot back. That made me laugh.  It's nice to know that she can still hold her own.I'm glad they got things out in the open, and then had a good cry about it. This will strengthen their relationship.  I think it must keep her going to know that he has a plan in place, and seems so in control of the situation.  And I think it must keep him going to know that when he finally finishes things, he has something to look forward to.Anxiously awaiting the next step in the path towards freedom.

That was very intense, but needed to happen.  Now they can share information and work together. :)

wow.  Excellent.

I hope Severus is a successful grave robber.  Hopefully they either buried the lot together or just left them to rot.  Eeek!

I wish I had your wonderful talent at writing, so I could write you a review you deserve.  This story is beyond anything I have ever read.  You are a true artist/author.  As I was reading I could feel the fear, the loss, the confusion etc. of the characters.  I love this whole storyline and while the 'mudbloods' are put to work, they still have a little 'power'.  While those in power... really are not as powerful as they would like to think.Anyway, thank you so much for such a terrific story.  I can see this will be one of those stories where I will be anxiously awaiting the next chapter.  Keep up the wonderful work!

Wow, an update definitely worth waiting for!

Aww!!! I loved the "Mine" thing it was too cute!!!!!!  Have I told you lately that this is one of my favorite fanfics of all time?  :)

Oy boy.  It is certainly heating up now.  Can't wait for the next update.

You can't stop there!  I really wanted to see a reaction from Hermione.  It is really disheartening to know how low he will have to go, and all that she will have to endure to get to a point where they can be together.  Severus is so good at what he does, but how on Earth is he going to overthrow the current regime singlehandedly?  Maybe there are some yet unknown survivors of the order or something.  I would love to see there come a point where Hermione, and the other girls play a large part in kicking some Death Eater ass. *drops wish in the suggestion box*  Keep them coming quickly as I am dying to know what happens next.  Thanks for another great chapter!

Now, just  to depose the boss... ;)

This was really worth the wait.  What wonderful intrigue.  I look forward to your next update.

It is interesting to see what's going on outside the brothel.   Snape is awesome, he's playing the Dark Lord like a fiddle.  I can't wait to see what happens next.

Wow. Great update!

Yes, very good, Severus is so good at what he does!  I can't wait to see what happens next.  Excellent scene, wonders when Voldemort realizes he's been played?  Not going to be pretty.  Thanks for the wonderful update, I loved it.
