I really like where your taking this tale.  You take on Gretchen/Hermione is very unique and well written.  I'll be interested to see where you take it and how your story flows.  Keep up the good work.

I was SO excited to see an update! This story is wonderful, and I'm so anxious to find out what happens next

little improvements, interesting story

Excellent update.

It's so good to see she has some sort of connectin with her daughter. Maybe all hope is not lost.

This is a really well thought story. Well written,captivating.

This chapter really intrigued me. Again, as soon as "Hermione" starts to emerge... ZAP!! It's so weird! But at least Gretchen's not pushing Rori away. That mothering instinct hasn't dissipated in the least.

This is excellent.  Please notify me when you update.

:)  Love your story

I really hope she'll recover her memories and get the life she deserves.

I cried right along with Rori. It must be so hard for her. She just wants her mom back. And to have her so close and yet not there at all must be so humongously stressful for such a little one. She's trying to be strong and sensible, but it's so much for a child to bear. And I think Albus is leading Severus on the right path on how to go about knocking down the wall entirely and getting Hermione back. Of course, Severus is walking a fine line though, because it's his wife and he's used to being in charge, and of course he's trying to do things his way while he can. I just hope he doesn't end up sabotaging things by wanting her physically too much.

Fascinating plan.  I love how Ron drew her out without her knowing it.

Wow! This is an amazing twist on a familiar plotline.  I love the direction you're taking this story!  Your writing is excellent, your characterizations very insightful, and your development and pace are marvellous!  I can't wait to read more.  Thanks for sharing the story with us.

I cannot shake the feeling that Dumbledore knows something, and I do believe Harry, Luna, Ron, Ginny, Severus, Rori AND HERMIONE (and quite frankly, probably McGonagall and Neville) are going to Let. Him. Have. It.

This is a fantastic story so far.  I'm really enjoying it and very anxious to read more.

Excellent chapter!  I'm glad that the prompting is working, I would love to see the family reunited and functioning as a unit as soon as creatively possible (which probably won't do very well in your plot, so just ignore me, lol!).  Great dialogue and visuals!!!  :D

I'm so glad you've had a chance to update this! My heart is still breaking for Severus, but it looks as though Gretchen may have had a breakthrough - thanks to Ron - but she doesn't seem to realize it? Which makes me wonder if there isn't some sort of compulsion (is that the right term for it?) on her present memory - like, she's doing things on autopilot and not even realize she's doing them AS she's doing them? It's really odd, that scene.

so good.  i really like your story, please keep it coming

Seems like apathy has really sunk in.  Hopefully she'll be curious, just to see what happens.

I was wondering if Hermione had her magic still, and it seems she does even without her wand. I am impressed at Severus' restraint. I would have thought he would drag her to Mungos and get her fixed up ASAP! I hope Gretchen decides to use the portkey sooner than later.

I like the idea of Voldy's body being cut up into tiny peices never to return again.

ooooohhh.  intriguing

Wow what a tale so far!  Can't wait to read more

Oh I hope she wants to know soon! I don't know how Severus can be so patient. I'd be tempted to grab her and tell her everything at once - which would probably blow her mind for good. Really enjoying this story. Thanks.

Very interesting premise.  I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes. :)
