yeah for serveus and lamo at cissy she got hers maddy being engaged and all and good fot luna i am happy there seems to be soma happily ever afters commingyeahwomderful chapter

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!!! You have done a marvellous job with this chapter, I am totally impressed (and would have paid good money for being able to see the faces of Narcissa and Pancy when Madelaine showed up with her fiancé). Severus acted perfectly when taking the Malfoys to task:-))

Well, I'm delighted that Ron has finally sorted out what he's feeling.  I'm also glad that Severus stood up for Hermione...  I'm having a brainphart:  does she know they're staying together yet?

It's a good thing Ron has older brothers to set him straight! Severus defending the Malfoys to Hermione made me bristle, I must admit. Yes, he had a point, but so did Hermione - and he really, really shouldn't have expected her to just get over it and be all happy about meeting them socially again. I trust that he can understand her a bit better now - and I do hope Narcissa stops meddling (and that Draco stops being an idiot).I'm glad things seem to be working out for the best for all the couples involved, anyway!

“I have no problem with that. I’ve slapped one in the face before.”That is the BEST line in fanfiction I've read in the last six months!!  YES!!!  Great story, I look for it whenever I log into the Poetess.Be well,

The Malfoys are hard to stop - are they not? No must be spelled out completely to them. I cannot believe that they had a second chance and were still trying to fix up Severus even though he is married. I hope the get to see Hermione for who she really is and stop calling her a Mudblood.

well, I must say that I was ready to give Ron the heave-ho so that Luna could get a loving husband, but you turned him around, thanks to George.  and without THWACKING Ron on the head!  the Malfoys - I'm glad Severus told them off.  Madeleine and William were a big surprise, and it let Hermione have a nice chat with Maddy, perhaps start a friendship - who knows.  the Wolfsbane project seems like a nice way for S&H to spend time together plus challenge Hermione professionally.  and Cho and Harry are off to a good start.  all good stuff!  (still, I wouldn't have minded if Ron had gotten whacked....)  now, will Cho and Harry use the betrothal charm too?  mnuahaha!!  thanks for the new chapter.

Such a sweet story!  I am such a sucker for a happy ending.  I love when I am given one - thanks (in advance)!

Only one more chapter to go?  :(  This is one of the few stories I don't ever want to end.

Aww Ron and Luna are going to be ok.  I loved the last bit of playfulness between Lucius and Narcissa, gives their characters a bit more depth

Well I am very happy that Ron seems to be getting his head on the right way round.  It took him long enough!  Delightful chapter as always.  While I of course like your take on the main characters in this story, I am also enjoying your take on the Malfoys.  The shock they display at Severus' declarations is spot on.  They really could not see him with Hermione by choice.  Delightful.  Although I will be sorry to see it end, I look forward to the last chapter.  Thanks, JoAnne

Narcissa ought to be shot!  I am so glad that Madeline appears to be a decent character.  Now can we shoot Draco?  Well done.  Irish

Thank God or wathever is up here for giving Ron a bit of sensitivity. He really needed it. And I'm glad Severus finally admitted something. I'm also sad it's almost finished.

it's always a great pleasure when i see there is an update to your story.  i loved that talking to that george gave to ron, and his efforts to make things right with luna.  i was a little ticked off at severus for not having a little more compassion towards hermione - okay, maybe he can make excuses for his friends, but he should have understood why she might not want to go back to the scene of the crime - but after the nightmare, he absolved himself, and at least he set those malfoys straight. well, it's been fun, and i look forward to you tying up all sorts of loose ends in the next chapter.

I'm so glad that Severus realized how poorly the Malfoys were treating Hermione, and finally stood up for her. That would always have been a problem between them. Ron deserves a huge kick in the pants, and it looks like George was only too happy to oblige.

"What was her name? Tulip?"BWAHAHAHAHA!  I'm still giggling over that one as I type.  That is absolutely brilliant!  *giggles madly* ... *wipes tears of mirth*What an excellent chapter!  Everyone is now on the right track, thankfully.  Good for Luna for making Ron work to earn back her affection.  She offered her love freely, and he threw it back at her.  It makes sense that she would be more guarded now.  Narcissa and Lucius crack me up -- such Slytherins they are!  And I'm glad that, despite her reservations, Hermione braved entering the snake pit yet again. I'm even more glad to see Severus' protective side.  As always, I look forward to more!

Aw... sweet endings on the way! And Sev stood up for her, yay!

I'm glad they are finally making the best of the situations...  I thought Ron might need a smack in the head to get the idea, but George seems to have done the trick!Can't wait to see who you are!

You had me laughing out loud with this line "What was her name? Tulip?”

I'm glad Severus finally lost his temper.  And it appears the Malfoys have to learn that bloodlines aren't everything.  I wish Hermione had punched Draco, though. 

Sorry I missed reviewing this one. Good chapter. :)

I'm enjoying your story :D  I'm hoping you'll post again soon so I can find out about Harry & Cho.  :D

Thanks for some sweetness. Looks like three of the four couples are coming to terms.

Oh, my! So much going on here. Hermione is still learning how to have a good relationship with Severus and poor Harry with Cho. I hope she's alright. And Ron, at least he's gotten some of it through his thick head, but is it enough?

Whoot to Cho! Way to go! She practically showed him!Poor, gin - Oliver is just a typicl male ego driven set of balls. Therapy - they need therapy!
