oh, dear lord, what you've done! cho taken by the serial killer, ginny walking out on oliver, ron - well at least he's coming to his senses. and severus almost saying the "l" word - he must have been distraught! all in all, another terrific chapter. only, please don't make us wait too long for the next. (see above - cho taken by serial killer!)

Wow - great chapter...  You were quite determined to make sure that absolutely EVERYONE was unhappy weren't you?  Now, you just have appease us eager readers by updating quickly!  Please?

ok about time ron came to his sensesand severus using the "L" word i shudder at the thought but i like how you left us hangingand you knew cho had to be taken cause harry has to go tot the rescue to be her knight in shinning armourbut all in all written beautifully as usual thank you for sharing with me

Lots of suspense.  I look forward to the next chapter.

Very exciting chapter, I hope Cho makes it back ok!

You've kept us on the edge of our seat - yet again!! Gods, Cho!Oliver and Ginny still have to get things sorted - I do know a compentent therapist!and Ron, the sod, wank up! It's time he actually grew up!and thank Merlin Severus said yes! Harry's so lucky.Update - I've got to know!

Wow, Oliver really is an idiot.  And I'm glad Severus and Hermione are moving on, and really, I like that Ron had some sense.  

Wow! what a chapter! I'm glad I'm me, their lives are not restfull at all, are they?I liked all the actionUpdate soon please

Oh wow, I'll say emotions are running high!

You do an amazing job of juggling four different relationships with four totally different sets of issues and emotions, and making them all vibrant and alive.

And I like the way they're intersecting right now, too!

So many cliffhangers in one chapter!  I really like the way you're able to juggle so many plotlines so gracefully.  

Wow, talk about crisises! It seems like everything's going wrong, doesn't it!?Oooh, Harry had to burst in right when Severus was going to tell Hermione he loved her, didin't he! Grrrr. . . Well, now for some psychiatrist talk: Ron and Luna desperately need to talk. Ron obviously needs Luna, and I bet the same goes for her. I mean, kiss and make up, hey?Ginny and Oliver. . . well, I think Oliver's being a pig. I mean, Ginny can't really say she's never going to see Harry ever again, can she? That would be ridiculous! I mean, he really isn't listening to the sweet voice of reason here, and Ginny is so fed up she's leaving! (Or at least that's what it seems like. . . ?) They are having major problems. Oh, Severus! How sweet of him to worry about Hermione like that!Same goes for Harry! I like how you're pairing everyone up, even though Harry wasn't actually forced to, you know, marry, or anything.Another completely wonderful chapter! Thank you so so much!~Katie

Well - all the relationships have had turns for the worst and maybe they can dig themselves out of the problems. Ron realizes that he wants Luna but she is not there. Ginny walks away and leaves Oliver after finding perfume and lipstick on him. Severus chews Hermione out for not taking the time to let him know why she is late coming home. Cho's been kidnapped by a killer. What a chapter - what great story plots.

Interesting developments with Severus and Hermione. And good for Ron to realize he doesn't love hermione any more...

HOW dare you leave a cliffie like that!!  Come back here and update at once!!!!  Geesh~!

Poor Luna! Ron, on the other hand, deserves Azkaban.  

Methinks Narcissa protests too much.  Hopefully, bedding a Gryffindor hasn't dulled Severus' Slytherin instincts for trouble!  And poor Luna and Ron!  He really is clueless.

A few bumps? It feels more like the rollercoaster The Viper at Magic Mountain! only with everything in tripple instead of double!! Good chapter by the way... all four couples are on the rocks,  on a storm tossed sea in a row boat (Or needing a therapist!)

Oh dear! Looks like everybody's having difficulties. At least Harry and Cho are working them out.

Oh damn, the review box stopped not being difficult.

Oliver and Ginny, oh dear me, it's just getting worse and worse. I suppose they had it coming, given that it started out so relatively well for them. I have to say though that assuming he didn't want her to be there for the celebration was kind of really stupid on Ginny's part. When has he ever not wanted to spend time with her?

Luna and Ron, I was really happy when they had sex, I thought it was going to be make up sex of sorts, but now it seems he managed to scare her instead. And she still gave in and took what he would give her even if it was emotionally unpleasant for her. That's so sad. I'd also have to say poor Ron, though. He's obviously reached a point where he wants things to be better for them, but he doesn't know how. I like how he's comparing her with Hermione and how he didn't know how to handle her either. It makes it seem as if on some level he's always been a little bit lonely. But at least they got some things said, so even if it's all very sad right now, I think they're on their way to better things too.

Severus and Hermione are at least on the same side. I think they'll be the first ones to figure out that divorce isn't necessary. Narcissa is totally up to something and I hope against hope that Hermione will refuse to go. It really would be for the best for her to not go.

Okay, I keep saying which people are being idiotic, let's flip it on it's head.

Yay, Harry! For beginning to put it behind him at last. And for forgiving Ginny. Of sorts.

Yay Oliver, for protecting Ginny against the big bad Harry and mid-game too!

(OMG the review box is behaving normally! :D)

Yay Luna for telling Ron what he was made of and taht although she's loved him for a long time she might not continue to do so when constantly treated badly

Yay Ron for realising that he likes her more than he's willing to admit.

Boo Severus for leaving Hermione like that, he might as well have thrown her to the sharks. It makes me think that he doesn't really understand what it's like to be  muggleborn in that sort of company

Yay on him though for defending her.

Yay on Madeleine for actually being a decent person and approving of being turned down that way although the entire situation must have been a little humiliating for her. I kind of like her, although I can't see why she would want to be friends with Narcissa.

Yay on Severus again for realising that Hermione wasn't really unreasonable at all and that she was actually the victim of the evening.

At last I get to this story! I've been so behind on reading it's not even funny, but I had to take them in the order they had been updated or I'd just accidentally skip stuff.

Let's see, the idiots of this chapter are Cho, Ron and Oliver, and to some extent Harry too.

Cho, why oh why can't you just listen to the man when he's trying to tell you something and when it is so obviously about the thing that you're upset about. And Harry does have a point about that bait thing, although I also think he's kind of a little bit unreasonable. I'd say he was completely right, he should have made her listen.

Ron, well he's not as idiotic as he has been, but I thought he was still a bit mean to Luna here. She was just trying to do something nice to him in return for his doing something nice for her. Least he could do was say thank you instead of pretty much telling her to go away and not touch his stuff. It made me wish that George would realise that Luna always says stuff like it is, she doesn't make up excuses like it was cold or drafty. If she says it was cold then it bloody well was. I kept expecting himto shout at Ron about it, but I suppose Ron's obvious unease with this Stanly fellow sort of countered it. There's hope for him yet.

Oliver is perhaps not so much an idiot as he's completely impossible to figure out. And to think he was so promising. So he knows about the infinity symbol and thought it was nice. Okay. He reminds Ginny that it doesn't mean anything concerning the divorce has changed. Okay. He then won't let her out of his sight because someone might be interested in her? What? Okay, he's just feeling a little responsible for her safety while they're married. But he still gets angry about her loving Harry! Can I whack him please? Basically he just told her that she can't like him too much, but she's not allowed to like anybody else either. I'm glad Ginny got her way. It's kind of Ron-ish behaviour with the Stanly-fellow, except Ginny's totally different from Luna, so she reacted completely differently. All in all, he may think that he found that symbol nice and that was it. I know he found it nice for a reason.

At least Severus and Hermione were being reasonable people. Which is good because it was totally their turn to have a little peace.

I'm so sorry if there's weird spacing in this. I'm experiencing review box troubles.

Those Malfoys are nasty pieces of work.

Just as well he redeemed himself there, could have been nasty.

great chapter !

Just like a sauna, hot , steamy, and leaves everything limp!

They are coming along nicely, aren't they?
