Sad... and who was the witch with blue hair? Tonks?

Great story.

i like it. sevvy is one of my favorite characters. he needs a little joy in his life. please, continue.

"Oh! It’s magnificent! And huge"   ROTFL  -  that line still gets me every time, 'phile!  *snort*  so Emma's blonde with big boobs, eh?  *cough*marysue*cough*

I love Snape's summary at the end of this chapter, and I can just imagine his snarky tone too.  Poor man, he's got so much to deal with.  Onto the next chaptah, quickly!! 

Frickin' Macnair... That poor woman, 'phile!  Her whole life's turned upside down! I love the drama though! - have told you that before - and oh! to have Sev look deep into MY eyes and tell me it'll be allright....  *swoons*

Y'know, I like how easily Snape can switch between himself and Steven, but we all have different parts of our personalities.  Who's to say that the Steven character mightn't have been who Severus turned out to be if his childhood/early life was easier.  *sigh* 

 Cliffie = evil.

Poor emma.  But I wouldn't mind Macnair grabbling me :).Hmm Walden and Severus, there's an idea.Seriously, the confusion emma feels comes across as natural and you address many concernsa muggle would have when confronted with a situation of fleeing.

nice start!

Oooooo, I still say that this chapter rumbles with disquiet.  We feel that there's something about to happen: your words suggest a very big 'something' and yet we're only being given small bits to work with.

There's so much information hidden in the words of this chapter, both the backstory and prompts for future interesting (and dare I say, dangerous) events.

Anticipates more! 

This fic is flowing very nicely.  You show Snape's spying abilities well with his alternative Steven persona and how he keeps that separate from Snape.And that is an evil cliffy....

Ah so Snape arrived...and equally nasty as we'd expect.I like that you painted Walden as handsome, it says so in the book.  But it is a cold grace that one would expect from an executioner like Walden.

I liked the line about Snape and Potter and why Harry wasn't invovled in seekig this horcrux.The whole bracelet itself is interesting and well done.

Very suspensful begginning and angsty apartment scene.  Messing with DE's is a bad thing...

Naughty Snape, using *that* voice to woo the woman!  Still, I'm grinning with excitement at what's to come!!!

I also like that Emma instinctively distrusts Macnair, 'cause he IS such a sleaze and a thoroughly nasty man.

*Mission Impossible music plays in background*

Ooooo..... the thought of Severus Snape in New York gives a girl shivers of delight! ;o)  And that Macnair, he's a real piece of work, isn't he.
