If wizarding society was as conservative as muggle society of the 1930's, then Dumbledore was taking quite a chance with Miss McGonagall's reputation.  I wonder if Professor Dumbledore would be considered beyond reproach?  Just spending the night in his quarters unchaparoned could have been enough to result in a wandpoint wedding or disgrace for the lady.

Aw, poor Hagrid. At least he has a friend in Minnie and Albus was the one to do the "punishing". Good chapter.

Hehe, ideas about a relationship eh? Wink, wink, nudge, nudge. Lol. Good chapter.

Oh this went really well for them both and was very IC actually so I thouroughly enjoyed it! Such a sweet scene when he holds her, absolutely perfect for these two and while one naturally wants for them to get together these moments are precious!

Thank muchly, I am loving the way this is progressing! 

Time to play catch up.  Thank goodness for Sunday nights.  Minerva and Albus have been through quite an ordeal.  They handled it with courage, good sense, and compassion.  I cannot imagine that they wouldn't be closer for the experience.  So what would they have said to each other that caused them both such distress?This story is a credit to the writer's imagination.

Poor Egeria! What a letter to get. And now I'm really curious to know what happened between Albus and Minerva. Looking forward to the next chapter!

I am really enjoying this story! I love Albus and Minerva fanfiction, and I particularly like the flashbacks to the war with Grindelwald. Looking forward to more!

Oh she found him, thank Merlin, I was getting worried for Alby by now, but it isn't as if they are out of the woods yet now is it? I know logically they'll get out of it, but it is still terribly exciting to read ... wonder how will this affect their relationship, it should solidify the friendship at least, well judging by events so far.

Not to mention Albus' little problem ... or perhaps not so little ... poor man, I think he was too exausted to be too embarrased. Well Minnie helped :) 

Great stuff, thank you!

I do hope Albus is going to realize there is more missing from their relationship than his list.

Oooh!  Foreshadowing of evil.I'm really getting to like this pairing through your story.  You've made them real.

Poor Minerva, falling into what must be unrequited love for her teacher.You are reminding me all too well of what it is like to be a teenager.  You have got inside Minerva's head and express her thoughts well.

Ohhhh.  The dreadfulness of being a teenager in love. Especially with someone who is unobtainable.

I should have read this story first (LOL).  Then I wouldn't have gotten squicked by the romantic interludes in "An Act of Love".  These are the first two stories I've read that featured this pairing as the main characters, rather than secondary players.  I am enjoying your created history for them (highly plausible thus far), the detail you create in their world, the WWII tie-in, and the differences from the Harry Potter era.Well done!

I love your analysis of the wards and How They Went Wrong - very clever and well thought-out.  Likewise on your analysis of Albus' list making technique.  Excellent detail and reveals a lot about his character!

Hello, just found your story last night, and finally managed to go through it all right now - wonderful work my dear.

I have not, unfortunately, managed to read/find many good Alby-Minny stories (I take it you are going for eventual AD/MM story, actually I hope you are anyway) and they are my second favorite couple. I do not know why people seem to skip them over, as they provide such wonderful opportunities for writers - your story being the proof right here.

I love the way you mingle past and present with easy, that does seem to fit well, I am not having any trouble at all following, which is sometimes a minus for this kind of writing but no problems at all here. What especially fascinated me, was the early relationship between the two which was really very well done, I loved that part of the story.

Am more than interested to see how this evolved, both in the past and in the present time of the story because both hold equal fascination for me - first for the wonderful evolution of their relationship you are building, second to see how what may have seem an unfortunate incident brings us to possible resolution of their feelings.

Looking forward to more, especially after this evil cliffie and much, much thanks for the story. 

Ooops.  Followed by a wince.We've all done this at one time or another. All one can do is hope for mercy.

You are not in the least repentent about the choice of chapter title (snicker).There seems to be a mutual admiration going here that has the potential to become something more than that.

Just got around to reading the latest chapters..AMAZING!!! Really I love them, while I´m no friend of stories where the reader´s got to jump between past and present, this story just couldn´t do without, and the best thing is, it never gets boring, every single second you learn something new about the characters. Brilliant!

Oh, the battles of war. From the sound of Carson's injuries, I don't think he'll be making it. Poor Minnie, but at least Dumbledore and Moody survived. The description of the carnage is good, if disgusting.

Ooh, an active part in the war. How scary for Minnie. And Albus being lost, hopefully he's okay or this is where he gets his london underground scar. Interesting chapter.

Aww, how cute. They both want the meeting to go well. Hopefully it turns out okay. Some more of Albus' POV on the past would be intriguing too.

Again two brilliant chapters! 'nuff said;)

The Chamber of Secrets!

Hehe, a cat with a dog's paw would be funny. Good thing she listens to Albus. So, the Chamber will be opening soon. It will be interesting to see how they deal with it.

Good chapter, can't wait for the next one. 

Wow, that was fast;) loved it, especially Wilspy calling her 'his Miss' over and over again. And neither DD or M protested or said anything. Talk about denial..*eg* well she is only a 6th year student, but the amount of trust Dumbledore is placing in her...I truly like reading about their past, how they become closer and closer by mutual trust and respect. I´m rambling now *lol* forgive me! Hope to have another chapter asap:)
