Just as you made me angry with Remus for a few chapters, you are now winning me back to his side.  He is no less a pawn in Dumbledore's games than the other two.  I hope that the three of them will conspire against him and really stick it to him.  Or one of the three could just kill him ;)

Wow, that was a really graious thing for Remus to do.  I know he realizes that he can't have Septima, and he cares about her so it was the right thing to do, but still, he could have been honest with Dumbledore and screwed it all up for them.  He's observant, at any rate.  I do hope that things go as planned now that Severus and Septima are officially/unofficially able to be together.  I'm not ready to put forth too much confidence, though.

Yay, Remus/Septima resolution!...WHAT THE FUCK, DUMBLEDORE? No umarried- what? WHAT? Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

At least Remus can see the truth.  Alas, Severus is a little slow in that department. :)

Sometimes one can be too smart for one's own good. :)

Wow, that was surprising, in a very good way.  Mwahahaha. The idea of getting one over on Dumbly is quite refreshing.

Ooh, Lupin, helpful but tricky. Tsk tsk. Now would SOMEONE TELL SEPTIMA SHE HAS A DAUGHTER?

I think Severus should be a bit more grateful to Remus. He just made it possible for Severus and Septima to live together. Your Dumbledore goes beyond manipulative and straight to evil. This is tthe first time I find myself routing against him. Loved this chapter.

Come on Septima, it shouldn't be that hard to figure out. I'm glad Severus took control of the situation and Septima didn't have to basically prostitute herself to Remus. I like how the story is progressing. Thanks.

I loved Severus in this chapter.  For once, he is being just what she needs instead of the other way around.  Now about Renee ... *glares at you.  But in the nicest way possible*

Septima straddles the line between being the perfect partner, in that she is always there for Severus, through thick and thin, loving him no matter what, and being a doormat in the way that she submits to his nasty treatment of her.  At the moment, I think things are going well.  He might be bringing up Lily a little more than he ought to considering he is talking to her competition, but I think he is beyond the point of being all out cruel to her.  At least I hope so ...

I kept waiting for Dumbly's head in the fireplace, but thankfully it didn't appear.  Looks like the fertility potion worked.  Oh, what will dumbles say now?

Awww... now if only Severus would tell her abouy Renee

JUST TELL HER ALREADY, YOU MORON!Well written, and very sweet, but come on, Septima, look at the numbers! Gah!

I loved that he finally opened up the whole truth to her.  Well, except the name.

A nice little chapter. I wish Severus would just tell her about their daughter, though. Gah!

Severus has let it all out.  Now he needs to build it all back up again with Lily in the correct context: his past. :)PS.  Can't wait to see which drabble is yours! :)

oh geez.   That man doesn't care about anyone, does he?  Either way, she won't be Severus'.  He's mad, I tells ya.  Mad!

Will it really matter whether I'm dead or alive? Please, just cut my hair. I need to go to him soon.”Well, if this isn't Severus' official moment of truth, I don't know what is.  There is no more time for being wishy-washy and thinking about what to do.  If he wants to stop her, he is going to have to do something drastic and convincing.  You've made her hair so important to them, I find myself cringing about cutting it.If I haven't said it enough times, I really hate your Dumbledore.  Nasty piece of work, that one.

Geez, Sev, just tell her already! :0

No, not the hair. Stop her, Sev!

I cheated reading the reviews first, and a good hint it was! June, of course! We finally understand why Remus "forgot" his Wolfsbane after taking it for about 20 years. It finally makes sense. 5 stars for explaining this to me!Horridly dangerous though, to sleep with someone who turns into a beast if only a little moolight filters through!Septima has been a toy for several men. No wonder she'll take a child as a new focus of her life, if this is the plan (wasn't so clear to me before).  Finally she'd have someone who would actually stay and love her.  The baby's genetics would certainly be ok for her. Dump all men!I wonder what she still wants of Severus, or if she might have doubts again. Poor, torn soul. Please provide some comfort to her!

So glad Severus was lucid enough to remember the potion in the brandy and to wean himself from it.  Septima doesn't realize that much of Severus' attitude is due to Dumbles.  I hope she's ok.  Not sure if her 'flatness' is baby issues, or... baby issues.

She was being treated as if she was disposable, and she was letting them do it. Had he, through his own selfishness and foolishness, taught her that?That is a lightbulb moment if I ever saw one.  I think he is very much to blame for her doormat issues, although she has some responsibility in it  as well.  Will he finally change his ways?While I am angry with Remus for using her, I am also angry with Severus for trying to keep Septima and Remus apart.  If he doesn't want her, why should he care who she chooses to be with?  His head is still a bit cloudy from Dumbledore's deception, but really, he needs to make up his mind.“I need your help.” She sounded strangely flat.That doesn't sound good ...

I have felt sympathetic for Remus up until recently because he was just a pawn in Dumbledore's game, same as everyone else.  But now he is being very selfish and even though he is focused on a cure, doesn't he want to be with someone who wants him, not clearly in love with another man?  Ugh!  It is frustrating.  But in the end, she ends up back with Severus, just where she belongs.  Now if only they could get this memory business sorted out ...
