It is five years after the final battle and life is great until there is a murder at Hogwarts. Please heed the warnings.

I'm a 20-something musician that loves Harry Potter. I've been writing for a while now. I've taken a little bit of a break from HP to focus on some other writings, but I'm making a comeback!
Reviews for Faithful Death
Since Mad Eye Moody has a wooden leg will Severus be fingerless? He wouldn't be able to hold a wand or brew potions. It would not be much of a life, perhaps he would be better off dead.
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
There will be an alternate epilogue that will answer these questions. Thanks for the review and question.
I personally hope they leave Lucius Malfoy's body to rot wherever it turns up. I hope so, too. good for Draco!
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
Thanks 
Quite a denouement. I'm glad that Lucius received his comeuppance. Yet my bloodlust is unfulfilled (I'm quite barbaric and vindictive at times). But I don't believe there exists a particular act of depravity that could revisit upon Lucius the atrocities that he has committed. I suppose in doing so, we would lose a bit of our own humanity. How's that for a catch 22?Part of me does not want to read the alternative ending. However, my curiosity will certainly lead me to it.I am looking forward to whatever you pen next.
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
Thank you. Because I had written the whole story from Hermione's point of view, I couldn't exactly go into detail of what happened to Lucius. I think if the reader imagines whatever they want they can make him suffer as much as they want. The endings are rather similar. The main difference is the outcome.
oh, sad! the writing was fantastic, though. the scene with lucius was very intense and hermione's reaction was spot-on characterization. the not-happy ending is a very believable one for the british wizarding world and their corrupt justice system. i look forward to the epilogue!
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
Thank you. Your words are appreciated!
I am quite disheartened by the ending. (Sufferer of happy-ending-itis). However, how true to life it is. That public sentiment is oft used to convict people regardless of the truth. That money buys innocence. What a rotten world we live in!Yet, at least before this happened, Severus had Hermione and knew that she loved and believed in him utterly. Conversely, the beauty in this world is also boundless.Wonderful and heartrending fic.
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
Thank you so much for the thoughtful review. Unfortunately, this is the kind of world we live in. There is an alternate ending that will be posted after the epilogue for this version.
i loved this (and the last chapter, too). i like the new rita skeeter articles
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
Thank you so much.
i think know who kill that girl it was eather Lucius or that George Epps kid. one of them is going to talk about sooner or later.
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
I can safely say that Severus did not do it; though, he is being charged with the crime. Thank you for your thoughts.
Response from harrypotterfan2005 (Reviewer)
if you ever watch a movie on lifetime where someone is kill you alway have like 2 or more people that could have done it. and you can tell that one of them is lieing and starts to do something dumd like moving into the dead person home or ggetting bubby bubby woith there loved ones.
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
I used to watch lifetime movies all the time, and it's true. Though, the guilty party will show their guilt in a different way.
poor snape! And Filch? Dawlish is just as slow here as he is in canon. ernie is so sweet! great chapter. 
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
Dawlish is rather dim. He makes the perfect Ministry baffoon. I'm glad you enjoyed this chapter. 
lucius malfoy, eh? things are getting evil... poor snape, but i liked the way you wrote the rita skeeter article. very in character.
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
Thanks. Rita is lots of fun to write. As for the rest, you'll just have to wait and see. ;)
I really enjoyed Ernie's characterization here. Good work. Also, I like that Lucius is now being questioned, the bugger.
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
Thank you. Ernie is a character that has a lot of play room because he's kind of background. As for Lucius, he deserves everything he gets. :)
I meant to review last time, but I forgot. Very intriguing.
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
No worries. Glad you're enjoying this.
i like this take on ss/hg. i haven't read many stories where they're married and getting along. it's good to see them cooperating! can't wait to read the rest.
Response from Clara Minutes (Author of Faithful Death)
Thank you very much! I'll be posting on a fairly regular basis. The story is completely written, so all I'm doing is editing.
