Uh, oh.  Looks like Percy might be a DE after all!  Hermione's got to watch that empathetic streak, too.  Yes, she eased Narcissa's mind, but at what cost?  On the edge of my seat as usual.  ;-)

Eep! i adore this story! LOL, i want more now, goshdarnit,  but i'll be patient. AWESOME job! Blessings,LindseyAnn

I am enjoying your portrayal of all the characters.  I love to hate Ron.  I usually hate Draco, but you have him described as intelligent with attitude and that works too.  Harry feels like he is doing the right thing by pushing Ginny away while showing obvious signs of pinning over her. In Hermione's absence, Draco becomes the voice of logic.  Hermione seems to have finally cut her loss of Ron and now that she has seen the baby, I can see major bonding in the future.  Snape is a man on the edge and he definitely needs some sleep, and maybe some loving.  Perhaps he has been thinking about the consort idea too much and it has become a real possibility to him.  Although Hermione did not rule out sleeping in his bed, just for now.  I am really enjoying this story.

Wonderful!   That is all I can say

Hi, I love your story so far, and think that you should keep updating as fast as your fingers can type.If you're up for taking suggestions, might I suggest Elena for the baby's name. It's the Spanish variation of Eileen (Snape's mother's name), meaning little angel.It also, from the phonetics, creates connotations to Helen, who in Greek Mythology, was the mother of Hermione. (It's pronounced like Helaina, but without the H sound).That's just what I'd go with, but I'm guessing you already have something else picked out.Happy Snorkack Hunting (don't you just love Luna?),Sempra

Wow, what a chapter.  Can't wait for the next one ladies.  :)

Please update quickly.  This was an amazing journey that I want to know the outcome before I die!  Not literally, but... well... you know what I mean.  I even felt bad (ok just a little) for Bella's stupidity in the last chapter.  What will is be HG/SS or HG/DM just please not HP/DM!

I am enjoying this lovely, convoluted story so much that I literally want to kick Ron in the butt.  I know that they're boys in their late teens, but they really need to get over their own hormones! 

Snape's little girl sounds like a beautiful, sweet lil' baby.  Too bad there isn't a potion for lactation, one that Hermione could take to nurse the baby.  She sounds like such a tiny thing and it would be to her benefit to have real mother's milk rather than formula.   And I hope you don't think I'm weird for saying that, but newborns do seem to do better on mother's milk.

Poor Severus.  Talk about an honorable man -- he's seeing everything through even though all he can see is his own death in the all too near future. 

I am really hooked on this fic! Update soon.

What a chappie!  Seems to me everyone has their hands full.  Cute way to introduce 'woman's instinct'.Author's Response: CC: Thanks

This is very intriguing!  I look forward to finding out what happens next, and what the baby's name will be.Author's Response: CC: Thanks

*cheers*

Ooh, this is really coming together.  I can't wait to see what happens from here. It's going to be so interesting and, dare I hope, touching to see them become a sort of family. 

I can only hope that Harry and Draco realize that girls hold nothing for them and turn to each other instead.  *sigh*

Brilliant!!!1! I'm hooked, darlings! 

Author's Response: CC Thanks, my dear SB! I say there will be some touching scenes in the future...Mums the word on Harry and Draco!More up soon!

SW's Response: Does this mean that all's well? LOL Thanks for reading, doll. We're working on more soon. (Psst... I like the Drarry idea.)

So... Hermione's now a mom, for all intents and purposes.  Snape is a dad.  Ron is a jerk, and Harry and Draco are becoming... closer?  Do I smell a bit of H/D in the making?

Has it only been a week since the last update?  It seems much, much longer.  Maybe that's because i'm into it. :-) 

Author's Response: CC: That's right. He is basically giving his baby to her. Well, Ron is seen as a bit of a jerk, but remember, he does love Hermione and he does feel threatened. Mums the word on Harry and Draco! ;-) More up soon!

SW's Response: Heh, it was a bit longer, wasn't it? Sorry. All that illness b s. LOL Good news? We're already on the next one, hoping to make our deadline. :) I'm fond of h/d, and I believe Christy is as well, though she's a Draco/Ginny groupie. Snerk. I'm trying to coerce her. LOL

I had some time today so I was browsing and look what I found -- a collaboration.  I love collaborations, so I started to read this engaging little tale.  I am eager to see how you weave the threads to get Hermione and Snape together ... he's a little bit of an ass in this story, but still intriguing.On a purely editorial note, I thought I'd bring your attention to this:  'injuries or inflictions he received from Greyback.'  It should be 'afflictions' rather than 'inflictions,' either that or 'injuries Greyback had inflicted.'  I figure with three betas writing, something has to slip past all those keen eyes!Author's Response: CC: Thanks

Marse Snape, I don' know nothin' 'bout birthin' no babies!Instinct, hmm? Good thing he's got a book, or Hermione would be up the creek without a paddle!

I expect that all three of the young men are going to go completely berserk. Harry doesn't really appear to want Ginny, and you seem to have an affinity for writing Draco with her so I expect that's where it'll end up. Ron's on his own, though. Stoopid boy.Author's Response: CC: Thanks

Why do I feel like the dung heap is going to hit the proverbial fan very soon?  And HG caring for a baby?  If anyone has had a newborn to care for, we all know that this 'know-it-all' will be suffering from sleep deprivation. How will that affect her mood, thoughts and interactions with SS?  This promises to be an interesting turn of events... and the boys being on their own to figure things out without the brains of the outfit?  Yikes!  Splat!  That's the sound of you know what, hitting the you know what... hihi!  Great story, please write more soon.  Cheers!  Author's Response: CC: Thanks

you two sure know how to weave a taleAuthor's Response: CC: Thanks so much

Very well thought out story..I love it so far..I look forward to reading more!Author's Response:

CC: Thanks

I hope to know the little girl's name in the next chapter. Poor Severus, he has so much on his plate!Author's Response: CC: Thanks

excellent.  thank you.

Author's Response: CC: Thanks P! Glad you liked it!

Sw's Response: Thanks, Patty! :)

An excellent chapter!  Who will name the baby, Snape or Hermione?Author's Response: CC: Thanks! Now, that would be telling... ;-)

Sw's Response: Hehe... I'm thinking our dear Hermione will think of some nice suggestions. :) But will our dear man accept one of them?

Aww. I love daddy!Snape. Such drama with the boys all fighting. Draco has been very observant and is really letting them have it, isn't he?

I'm looking forward to what you two have for us next!

Author's Response: CC: Yes, I love daddy!Snape as well! Draco is keeping his eyes peeled, as is Ron. More coming soon!

SW's Response: Thanks for reading! We're working on the next bit.  I think Draco's got some things he wants to really say. ~snerk~

I liked this chapter ... especially clueless Ron (of course he's only eighteen.)  You're creating a wonderfully convoluted plot-line.  Poor Ginny and poor Harry.

Great story.  Can't wait for an update.

I love this!  Snape's baby.  I'm amazed that with all the stories out there, there are still new angles, new tales to be woven.  Sweet.
