Oh no, I missed Snape in the past couple of chapters anyway. ;)

Poooooooooook! *kicks your job* Give her more time to write! I am *seriously* jones-ing for some Whore-Calling Snape and now he's run off! Do you have an idea about how many more chapters we have to look forward to of this infuriating and fabulous tale? I want it to go on and on, but I also want Severus and his poor little Patronus to get better. *sigh* Thank you for the update!

Sigh... Another update and a cliff hanger... Someone is trying to kill me!  But as always, an excellent job.  Praise to the Tartan Waterhorse.  As it has been stated in cannon, Bill Weasley is cool and I love your representation of him.  Draco is becoming cheeky, nice to see but there is extreme distress from across the puddle as there was no SNAPE in this chapter!  Waaaahhhh...

I've really been enjoying this very different Snape. It's not a persona I ever envisioned for him, but it seems more than plausable that his mind could crack from all he's been through. Your story is something fresh and engrossing. Your expanded details of the wizarding world are fascinating.

Hey, How did I miss the update. Oh well, I got to read it, didn't I.  A little tense there wasn't it.  Looking forward to some answers.  Too funny that Snape put a message in there to Bill! 

This was like a mouthfull of water to someone really thirsty;delicious, but nor nearly enough!

sterling stuff. please update. That is the $25k question. . . . .

idont knwo if my review took.  net acting funny.loved the last two chapters.  Sev is sweet and Bill is excelently characterized.Kiss your betas! You have really good ones.I love this fic and continue to read it and i have to print it out and steal reading time in small segements.

I loved this chapter, but..."It looked vaguely reptilian at first and then its long tail shrunk to that of a small greenish rabbit as pronged horns shot up out of its head. Before that change was even complete, the body became almost completely unlike that of a squirrel and ragged bird’s wings grew out of its back."  I think you meant almost completely unike a rabbit, unless you were thinking of Hitchiker's substance that was almost, though not entirely, unlike tea.

Whines anxiously -- update, pretty please?  I was really enjoying this, so I hope you haven't abandoned it.

Good to read an update! I'm very curious to know the next few steps. Thanks!

Great chapter!  Now the trio have another very smart and reliable ally.  Thanks for giving the trio more help.  They are going to need it!  Cheers!

I am not sure if I have reviewed this story before, but let me tell you, it is one good story.  For awhile there I was afraid that you had stopped the story, but I am glad to see  I was wrong.  It is a well written story, and I wonder 'what next?'.  I will be sorry to see it end, and am hoping that Severus Snape will be fine in the end.  I am a sucker for a happy ending! :)  Good job.

I've been enjoying this story thus far. However, what finally got me to write a review is that your portrayal of Bill these last two chapters is one of best I've ever read. Love the combination of non-chalance with the quick reflexes and smarts.

 And how great is it that Severus and Bill are actually friends to the point that  Bill gets a special whore name too.

you are completely, totally, and utterly fabulous for writing this wonderful story, i love snape's madness and how you insert his clever little remarks every so often. please update as soon as you possibly can!!!

Squee!!!!  Bill knows about Severus and isn't going to kill him!!  Poor Sevvy, with such a sad Patronus; doesn't sound like the critter could ever protect Severus from a Dementor.  All those forms his Patronus took - do those mean anything, like maybe they each represent someone in his life?  Ooh, you are so secretive you might be part-Goblin yourself! Thank you for the new chapter, Plaid Whore.  Oh, and while Sevvy's Patronus was a sad sight, that was a wonderfully picturesque description!

ARGG!!!!!! *hyperventalates* I'm getting no answers here!!! :(. LOL Sorry. It's not your fault, and I of course loved this chapter just as much as all the others. I'm just getting kind of agrivated, because I've just read three new chapters of various WIPs and none of them has resolved anything. At least this didn't end with a cliff hanger like the other two. ^_^ I'm glad the next chapter will be up soon, I'd really like to find out what that scroll is about. Anyways, thanks for writing such an awesome story. It's people who write great stories like yours that help me get through the monotony of my daily life. ^_^ Thanks!~Morgan

Great chapter! *grin* Bill is a smart one; he completely surprised the trio.Looking forward to the next chapter and those answers. Thanks!

red topped track polisher

Very nice!

I've been waiting for this update for a long time coming, it was quite worth it...

Never knew about ThinK either, pretty interesting. 

Sometimes, Harry's just too oblivious for his own good.Fantastic chapter! I love the standoff between Bill and the trio - namely Harry. Please update when you can!

I just cannot wait for the next bit! I really love this story and your writing is WONDERFUL!

Excellent chapter!  I look forward to getting <i>some</i> answers next time, but this one is a good recap of showing Snape is a good guy.  Thank you!

Ta ta TAAAAAA ! Wow two chapters within a week - yay ! The plot thickens....I would love to see more Draco, hope he is in the next installment. Will we be learning more about the curse Snape is under ?

By the way, my boss and I have discussed "preaching to the choir/converted."  I know it as "preaching to the converted" and he says "preaching to the choir."  It really annoys me when he has the nerve to correct me.  So much so that I looked up the phrase, only to find both were widely used and (horror of all horror - because I'm very much a know-it-all myself) "preaching to the choir" actually predates "preaching to the converted."  ARRGGHH!!Anyhoo....that's my small contribution to hotly debated topics 

I thought I could feel the end approaching, but I think some extra chapters are in order. I'm so glad that Bill did not call in the cavalry.  Now they have someone with a level head about (other than Lupin).  Thank goodness Bill is brilliant, they could really use a hand.I really can't wait to find out what the scroll says.  Very exciting!!
