I can certainly empathise with Severus and Hermione.  It is a bit unfair that Ron has no real penalty for his actions.

I loved Hermione's repeating door slam charm, I bet Sev has a headache!

I do believe Ron is going to have quite a bit on his plate.

I like Minerva, but I had an urge to slap her for a minute.  I guess she feels like she is a mother figure to Hermione.

I bet Severus liked her comments under veritiseurm better than her paring comment.  Now, will Hermione tewar a new one into Ron???

I loved Severus's comment 'Not unless you want me to.'.  Perfect comment.

Well, I bet Ron is having kittens abot now.

Draco and Ron.  Nice. 

I just had to read this story again.  It is just as wonderful as I remembered it to be.  Lovely. 

Ah, what a wonderful ending to a most intriguing story. You know, this was one of the first 'real' fan fictions that i read and fell in love with, for that i wish to thank you. Finally, i just want to say that i loved Severus sulking over the Christmas tree. I can just imagine it, similar arguments have happened in this house after all. Ah men, can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em!!

I just reread this story and it was just as lovely as the other times that I have read it.  Once again very nicely done!

Such an enjoyable story.  Thank you.

:D  Major props go out to you!  Heh.....I think I was most surprised when Ron flew over and attached himself to Draco, that was a nice twist.  And of course, yay for happy endings! 

Ah, lovely! I have to say I really enjoyed this fic! Now get on with writing the other (2) we discussed!

Oh, that was brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! Thank you so much for writing.

oh.my.god!  you sure know how to write a first chapter!  i'm glad i didn't start this story until now, so i can go straight on to the next chapter to find out what happens next!  only, i wish i hadn't decided to start it NOW, when i should be going to bed.  ah, well. 

I love this last chapter, especially the twins' newest potion.  What a hoot!!!  I'm glad Severus stepped in before Hermione could cut loose after whatever scathing thing Molly was about to say.  What a great story!

Excellent ending, brilliant last line. What a wonderful Christmas gift. :-) Wishing you the best this holiday season.

I was very surprised at the ending.  Virtual cookies to you!  I expected Lavender, not Draco to be Ron's true love excellent job!

A very nice finish.  I am impressed that you wrapped it up in one chapter after the dysfunctional scene at Severus' house--that was such a mess!Glad you didn't abandon this, too.  Thanks for the fun piece. 

Brilliant story.   The whole thing flows so way.  I truly loved it.

Thank you.  Lovely ending.  I'm glad Minerva got to get those uncomfortable feelings off her chest and finally begin to heal.

thanks for the gift!!! =) loved the story!

Perfect pre-Christmas pressie and lovely ending!  Thank-you :)

Imagine my squees of delight to wake and find the final chapter of one of my favorite stories waiting to be devoured.

Absolutely wonderful!!  I thoroughly enjoyed this adventure, Gin.

One of the more appropriate to the story final lines I've read.
