Argh I feel so sorry for Snape! *hugs him* I'm happy that Hermione was able to convince Harry *pets him* and most of all that Ginny might soon be well *prays to the almighty arthour*... Great chapter! You really got quite a lot of tension and angst in this one, and yet still you managed to put just enough hope in it so I can see a small ray of sunlight! I'll be looking forward to an update! =) (Oh and Snape's 'peace offering' was very sweet - although he would rather die than to be linked with that word, I guess...)

Poor Sev.  I'm looking forward to updates.  :)

I like the way some of the DH details have been woven into the storyline.

Hermione just can't seem to manage to say things the right way, can she? But then, tact has never been one of  canon!Hermione's strongest skills!

oh goody! i can hardly wait to see severus' reaction to these developements.  thanks for this update.

This is a really great promt, and you have done a great job. Loving it.

I know I'm being repetative, but I'm still really excited about how mature these characters are shaping up to be without taking away the goofy things that make them themselves.  Really looking forward to seeing the Slytherin side of things.

Oh, I like this!  I really think you're doing Ron justice.  I loved that he reminded Harry that they used to copy Hermione's homework, and that his relationship with Hermione looks healthy.  (Not that I'll mind when/if she ends up with Snape ;)

This looks like it'll be a lot of fun to read.  I look forward to following its development.  I really love your writing, so it promises to be a good read. :)  Thanks for sharing your talent with us. :)

I love the idea and am looking forward to Severus' reactions. thanks for writing . love,      barb

I'm curious to see what happens next. And hopefully find out what that nasty stare was all about. Update again soon!

Lovely start and I look forward to reading more :) As always thank you for writing (and for the great beta work you do for others)

I like that the trio has renewed their vows to each other so to speak. United we stand, divided we fall. I hooted with laughed when Harry said he would explain himself more. Hell if he would have done that in canon the series would have been 3 books. Who is Ron going to end up with? I vote for Pansy!!!

Hellooo - I just found this (weee) - great story so far. It's very promising (I have always enjoyed your stories so this should not be different I think). And it's typically Snape to react that way in the courtroom... I'm looking forward to see how he will react (and adapt) to his new life..Also it's very nice to see a mature Ron.. I hope to see more soon =)

This will be a good story that one.Hope you will update soon. I am eager to read what Snape has to say, see him fuming....

Thank you for the update, a very well written chapter. I like the way you have them have sligth doubts about each other, but manage to talk to each other and solve the issues before it becomes a problem. I loved that you had Kingsley and Harry speak up for Severus. I often find Harry to be hotheadded, rash and sometimes downrigth stupid in his tantrums, it is very nice to see a fic where he actually manage to use his brain from the very start of the story. I also found it very interesting that you had Daphne and Pancy in the story, it will be interesting to see how they fit into the puzzle. Update soon

Hmm... poor boys, having to put up with Slytherin classmates. Although I guess it won't turn up to be all that bad! And I sure hope Hermione manages to be properly prepared for her new houseguest, as I somehow doubt Snape will be overflowing with gratefulness to start with.

Loved it!  I am glad to see that Daphne Greengrass will be making an appearance in this fic.  I think that she is a highly under-appreciated character, who I would love to read about more often.  I am so glad that Harry did the right thing.  I, too, feel a bit guilty for having doubted him.  I look forward to reading more.

They put those two girls in with Ron and Harry?  I'm smelling romances.  

Wonderful continuation. You handled the court scene beautifully. I'm eagerly anticipating Snape's thoughts on the matter, and especially his reactions to "going home" with Hermione. How will she do up his bedroom, I wonder... 

Hey Southern!  I just started reading this today and wanted to let you know I'm very anxious to see whats next!  Especially how our Severus reacts to living with Hermione!  Thanks for posting!  ~Brena

Let's see, Snape will have a stick up his bum about this.....  Ok, I had my fun.  Enjoyable chapter and I like the way you show how emotions and interpersonal relationships are changing now that the war is over and it's 'cleanup' time.

Yay, another SW fic! :-D<i>“Yeah,” he said with a grin. “Say, you haven’t any of those Pop Tarts?”</i>Was Ron only in it for the food? lol!

I do hope Hermione and Snape plan to do some research naked!!! I like your mature Ron. I wont mind if you need to kill Ginny off for a plot point. Honest.
