It's possible in wartime that madness eventually comes for us all. Yet some madness might be carefully purchased; some sanity knowingly sacrificed. This story is such a tale.

Reviews for The Price of Madness
I woke up this morning at 0'dark hundred thinking about this story and what the next chapter is going to be like. I also decided that if you leave SS/HG out of the next chapter I may never forgive you. I'm hoping that you are doing well and that real life has just gotten a little too busy. I am eagerly awaiting the next installment of this wonderful fic.
O my goodness! How could you stop there? Your story is really amazing!!! I love how you developed the characters and still kept them true and believable! Please update soon!
<heavy sigh> just checking for an update
Pooka!!! I need more!!! Write, write, write, please!!!
I love this story, and am so happy to find an update here! I have only just "discovered" TPP, and I'm very glad I did, if for no other reason than this wonderful story!!!
I loved the interaction between Albus and Hermione in this chapter, especially. And I'm glad that you have Hermione being the brightest witch of her age and figuring out what bugged Severus so. (Silly insecure git that he is, as fond as I am of him!)
What did she do? Ahhh! I can't take to pressuse of waiting!
Ouch!! 'Sir'? How could she? I can't help but wonder how much of those dreams Albus actually remembers while Severus was so accomodating. Great chapter, even if it is a cliffie! I hope that means you'll be updating soon!
Well, felicitations and welcome back! Could you please finish the story before hell breaks loose again? Your faithful eager, and irregularly patient reader
YaY! Severus is back! Kinda... sorta... YaY! I could have pinched Hermione for being such a dolt thought, I mean, honestly woman! And I get called Blondie... Sheesh. LoL. Another wonderful chapter Pooka, I can't wait to read more.
I was so glad to see an update and I know that you've been terribly busy... but I definitely look forward to the next one.
It has been awhile... had Hermione & Severus worked out the Horcrux before? I honestly can't remember, but I don't think so. It seems to me that it'd be Harry's scar in this instance...
And poor Hermione, sticking her foot into her mouth. Silly girl. Hopefully she'll be able to fix things... soon!
Wow, that's all I can say.
He he he he heeee! Loving it! Oh how I love AlbusLIVES! twists.....Calling your beloved "sir" when he used to teach you potions is always a mood killer! Any chance of a swift update for the next chapter? Oh and congrats on the 20lbs!
I LOVE this story! Next chapter!!!!!!
Ok, I got a notice about this story. I don't remember reading it. However, I have to admit you got me hooked!I am begging you to have Severous find his cure it is too sad seeing him nutty as a fruitcake.
I am so happy to see an update to this wonderful story. I bet it was when Harmione called Severus "sir"....that could have turned him sour. I am glad thir first meeting after the whole ordeal was not smooth. It makes for a more tense story! I can't wait to read the next chaper.
Auggggh! You know I love your writing, but I might throttle you! What a wait, and then what a cliff!!!! Meanie!
Yay for updates!!! Lovely chapter, as usual. Mild cliffie there... but I forgive you. ^_^ I had gotten used to Severus being mad, it's going to take some getting used to him being sane again. I'm afraid I'll miss the insaneSeverus, but I'm sure with your superb writting I'll grow to love normal Sev just as much. Again, great chapter. I can't wait to see more!
Ack!!! What a place to leave us. Keep up the great work!
Very cute and positive and all the best.
Poor Hermione, I hope she will repear her mistake as soon as possible, I can't stand the idea of my favourite couple beein seperated for any amont of time due to stupid mistakes. What is the last Horecrux, I have an idea, but are almost scared to be correct. Update soon, very soon, please!!!!
Not unexpected perhaps, but still sad that there is this gulf between them. Silly man.I'm awfully glad the next chapter's written, and I'm actually terribly curious to see how you might futher make use of goblin magic in the future.A lovely chapter ... and you do, indeed, have two wonderful betas.
Squee! Another fabulous chapter!
I love Minerva cuddling with Albus - too cute for words and at the same time, I felt Hermione's unease with it! LOL
So Albus' soul inside Snape caused his madness. Bloody brialliant - that's why you are!
Oh no, she called him sir, he took it the wrong way and let the angst begin. At least she figured out what she said wrong quickly - gives me hope she rectify the situation as soon as possible. :)
I look forward to the next chapter!
Fingers crossed that Hermione manages to sort things out with 'Sir' in the next chapter. Great stuff as usual!
Hmmm, will it be embarassing for Hermoine to realize that when she thinking and doing those slightly naughty things with Snape, she was actually doing them to Dumbledore too??
Grr.
Thank you very, very much for updating, and I loved seeing Minerva acting human and smitten. I'm also curious how you're going to treat the disposal of Harry's horcrux now.
But grr.
I'm glad the next chapter is written. I would be very put out otherwise at such a horrible ending to the interview. She'd better go right back in there and apologize for her own behavior! And let's not have any distractions in the manner of people coming by and wanting her to attend meetings or anything, either! This WILL NOT wait, do you hear?
I love this story so much. *smooches* Thank you!!!
