Whoa, quite the interesting hair-pin turn you threw in there. I think my favorite thing about this chapter though, is that Ron is the "sensible" one out of he and Harry. In cannon, Ron is not my favorite, but I don't enjoy how he's always made to look stupid or just plain mean in many fanfics. I'm enjoying this very much!!!

Ok, break time.  Now I can just say WOW!!!  This is an awsome story. The circumstances of Lucius' major change are wonderfully shown. How could a man NOT become totally different after what he has gone through? I love the chemistry between the he and Hermione. I can't wait to come back and finish this!!!

With each chapter you keep me more and more intrigued.  I can't wait to see how they try to prevent Voldemort from getting to Hermione and Hope.  I also can't wait to see how Snape eventually realizes he wants Ginny and actually sets off to pursue her.  I feel like Pavlov's dog every time I see you have updated.  My mouth just waters at the possibilties of what I am about to read.

I believe I forgot to review the last chapter, so I am going to do this now before my brain freezes.  LOL

Excellent chapter.  As I told you, they keep getting better.  Your plot twists are wonderful.  And I, for one, am quite open-minded when it comes to Severus and Albus.  I cannot wait for more.

Damn! Go Hermoine! Though now they really have things to worry about. Maybe there will be a spell in one of Merlins' books that can protect her and the baby. Also, here's hoping Severus can pull it together and make a go of it with Ginny. She'd be good for him, I think. Great job, and I look forward to the next chapter>

Thank God she did what I was hoping she would do... (being cryptic in case someone reads reviews before the chapter--really shouldn't read the last page first, folks! LOL)
Honestly, I think someone cast Petrificus Totalis on my heart. Peter scared the you-know-what out of me. I hope You-Know-Who has a difficult time doing what he hopes to do. *hears Mighty Mouse music* Here he (Lucius) comes to save the day!

The tomb scene was great. I'm glad you are taking your time with what seems to be a budding relationship between Snape and Ginny. I like that she told him that the person she loves doesn't even see her as anything other than a bother. That's a great line and its most probably just the way he had thought about her, just before he saw her again.

There seems to be a part in the end missing though.

Oh damn, I cried reading that!  This is a wonderful story, just hope I'm able to stay awake long enough to finish it tonight! :)

Ah! Poor Lucius. I feel sorry for him but also for Narcissa and Draco. bummer! I'm back here on the first chapter, but I'll be catching up soon. Cheers and thanks for posting!

Absolutely amazing! You've outdone yourself with this chapter. It's the best yet. As always, I am looking forward to more. And I love what you did with Ginny... a girl Severus would definitely fall for.

You need to write faster my dear, because I'm on the edge of my seat.

Your new twist is great. It's in keeping with the plot you have laid out having to do not only with Lucius and Hermione, but with the book Lucius already has.

It's also nice that you are adding another element, which is the potential for Severys and Ginny to become closer.

Keep at it, this is coming along wonderfully.

I just wanted to say I love this story. The bits with narcissa and Draco are very touching and the change in Lucius very well written. I can't wait to see what happens next. Poor Harry I hope he can find some peace and happiness. Thank you for a amazing story and I really hope to read more soon

Very good I almost cried!

*shiver* Almost makes me want to trip and fall in front of Lucius if only he'd pick me up in those arms...
But Severus would get jealous.

A whole new realm...most definitely. Sort of like 'handless magic,' don't you think?
Still want a bottle of that soap....

I think you portray Lucius' anguish beautifully. I am really looking forward to the next chapter.

Ahh that was sweet.Know what you mean about the muses, I am writing a few Lucius/Hermione/Snape love triangles at the moment. In one of them I was shocked at what my muse wanted me to do.... It's a real pain!But that was very happy, and don't worry about the tears as you're writing, I get that all the time!

H'mm Ginny and Severus??????Sorry it's just that well I am more of a Snape Hermione fan.I like the story though and the Dark Lord is rather dirty isn't he?

wow love do you have a sequel yet? This was amazing!

i loved the ending

I finally took a moment to understand where this scene really fits in the world, and I can picture the Phantom at his organ.  CHristine coming up behind him and removing the mask for the first time, and both instances, the Phantom/Lucius decides what the female feels, instead of giving them a chance to explain.

What a wonderful stor!  I like how you brought Merlin and Avalon into it.  The Ginny/Severus pairing was excellent.  I hope you'ver written a sequel!  I'm going to look for it now....
