Oh, the train wreck is on its way. It's been so long since I have read this that I can't remember quite where, or I'd give you ample warning. So, it must be coming up soon! *bites nails* But never fear, you have a much better option for a story just a few spaces down in the queue (and that Draco is much better behaved!. Um. Well, he's more entertaining and thug-less, anyway). Thanks, love, for reading it!

*loks around*  Haha, beat her again!

LOL ... you two  crack me up. And yes. Hermione is a bit of a twit, because I totally was. this was my very first fanifc, so you must forgive me. I was still learning. I now know the pleasures that a suave Draco can bring. And now, I shall never go back! ;) Glad to hear that you like him in PIE, though. I read all the reviews, but I can't comment on her account. It kills me how many people like Harry better. I am jumping up and down inconsternation about that. I think more people have called him an idiot ... anyway, thanks for reading this one, but mostly that one, which is our pride and joy (and wait for the next few chapters. There are going to be some fireworks soon!)

Can't wait!

I am so glad to hear that you are enjoying it, and I promise that you won't have to wait so long between chapters now. Thanks so much for your continued reading, and your review!

Poor Hermione is innocent. Too bad Draco is evil! in this one, rather than charming. I promise you won't have to wait as long between installments for the upcoming chapters. Thanks for sticking with this, I appreciate that you are still reading and reviewing!

I promise your wait will not be so long next time! Thanks for your patience. And yes, Hermione is in danger here, but you shall soon find out what happens. I think she will gain some wisdom by the end of the stroy, in one way or another. Thanks so much for your reviews, and for keeping up with the story!

Poor Hermione was a bit naive. I was thinking that she was never imagining that any real harm would come to her at the hands of her classmates. I promise, you'll find out what happens in the next chapter! The story is nearly done, it's only 10 chapters in total! Thanks for reading along, I really appreciate it.

I was re-reading this, and I was thinking, "Oh, man! This took a left turn! I hope I bring it back to the plot!" I wrote this a long time ago, and I haven't reviewed it in ages, so I am right there with you, nervous and hoping I don't lose your good opinion. Thanks for sticking with it!

Ah, as I just got my internet back after weeks and weeks, I had chapter 6 waiting for me from my beta! So now I just have to clean it up and post it! I thank you very much for your interest in this story, and for your wonderul comments. I really appreciate them, thanks so much for reading!

It is funny, because now that I have been in fanfic for awhile, I see that people don't really like Dumbledore, but I still do. I like that he is so wise, so it's good that you like him, as well. Thanks for sticking with the story!

It's more the way that people write Dumbledore that makes you either like him or lump him...  He like Snape is easy to write either way.  ;)

LOL! Now I will be spamming you after you have totally forgotten this story. I am glad you thought the spell was clever! *buffs nails as head swells*

No worries.  ;)That's the thing; some stories leave you questioning the title and how it relates to the story.  Your story however ties in rather nicely in all regards.

I am so sorry this took so long to respond! I have been without internet for ages, and I just got it back! Thanks for liking this story! I didn't think anyone would, so  am glad that you are enjoying it! You made my day!

I am so glad that you are liking this! In fact, I just got back my internet connection today, so as soon as I tidy up Chapter 6, it will be posted! Thanks so much for reading, and for your lovely comments!

To hear that they have good chemistry and that they are interacting well is quite a compliment, and I appreciate that! Of course that is one of the big things I am for, so to hear it is coming across, well ... I thank you for your remarks, and for continuing to read it!

Oh,thanks so much! I was really nervous about people liking this, so I am glad to see that you are enjoying it so far. Thanks for reading, and for your review, I really appreiciate it.

*laughs* I promise you, there are answers in the next chapter! As soon as it gets beta'd, more becomes clear. Thanks for reading!

Leave it to me, the minute I get validated, and here I am, putting O-fics in the fanfic, marking stories complete that aren't ... *starts sweating* Can you imagine the long e-mail you would get if they revoked my status after all that? LOL! Don't worry, it's a 10 chapter story, but I warn you. It falls apart somewhere ...

Yes, and I apologize. I put something in the author's notes about that, because I couldn't figure out how to change it. There are, in fact, 10 chapters. Hope you continue to read, and thanks for leting me know!

Oh, I am so glad that you are enjoying it! I hope it doesn't disappoint as it goes on. Thanks for reading it!

Ah, I have the whole thing written. Just waiting on my SUPER-SLOW beta! Thanks for reading it! This was my first long-fic, so I kind of cringe when I look back on it. I appreciate that you made the time for it!

My knowledge of canon is so flawed, LOL! I had to have my beta remind me that they do, in fact, have Easter in the wizarding world. So I had a bit of rewrites in that scene! *brain is rotted from too much fanfic and not enough reading of ACTUAL books*

Thanks! This was written when I was still new to fanfic. I think my brain has melted. I could never be that creative now!Thnaks for reading!

Ah, she's young yet! Forgive her the foolishness of youth; I have a feeling she's going to regret her inexperience more than once in the coming chapters!Thanks for reading! (And I haven't forgotten that I owe you a rebuttal fic!)

I'm waiting with bated breath. :P

I am glad that you are still interested! That really is delightful to hear. *frowns at beta* Now I am just waiting to get all my t's crossed and i's dotted, and you shall have the rest! We are halfway through!Thanks for reading!

Ooooh! I'm so glad that you approve! I am still worried that it is going to fall apart somewhere, but for now you seem to like it. Thanks so much for sticking with it, I am really so glad for your review! *hugs you*

That made me laugh, because I was just thinking that same thing. It's like watching a train wreck, because I have this terrible feeling like it falls right off the cliff somewhere. Don't say I didn't warn you! (go read PIE! That one doesn't tank!)

I've really liked this so far, so when you say that it will go bad a some point, I just don't yet see it.  I'm trying to picture what the train wreck involves and here is all I can come up with:Hermione runs over to Snape, only to realize her greatest fear; She has nearly killed a professor.  Too paralyzed to run for help, she curls up on the floor next to him, sobbing uncontrollably."Please don't die, Professor.  I promise if you just live, I'll get you anything you want.  A hundred thestral hearts if that's what makes you happy.  Just don't die!"In what seems a moment of providence, Snape stirs a little and opens his eyes.  Hermione tries desperately to calm herself and reassess the situation.  Before she can form any coherent thought, he jumps to his feet."You're... you're not hurt?""I'm fine.  And guess what?  You're on Candid Camera!""What?  You mean this was all a scam?  I don't really have to get you a thestral heart?""No," he says, laughing gleefully,"you're off the hook."Although most  did not recognize the sound, the thud as Hermione passed out on the dungeon floor could be heard throughout the castle.Do you feel better now?  Yours can't be THAT kind of train wreck, LOL.  As for PIE... I am reading it and loving it!

O.o.... did you hack my files and pre-read Chapter 4? Either that or great minds think alike! (don't say I didn't warn you)
