You are a meanie!  Argh!  Your only saving grace is that this is an excellent story and you update quickly...  Will Lupin continue to be a factor in the story?  This is very exciting - I really am not sure what the outcome will be.  For awhile, I thought that Hermione will go back to her time and find out that she really screwed things up and have to go back to try to fix things.  Now, I am thinking that she may become trapped in this time (which I think would create a paradox because she is already alive?).  Hmm, are my guesses even near the mark?  Or am I completely off base?  I kind of hope I am completely wrong because there is nothing more fun than being completely taken by surprise.  I eagerly look forward to your update!

I don't mind cliffhangers. Just keep them coming.

I wonder what's going to happen to them now. If Severus had picked up the Starglass, then they could have "wished" themselves away from the store. Hopefully Severus doesn't totally destroy his relationship with Hermione. Please update again soon!

great chapter!

Your not sorry really you cheeky minx! Can't wait for the next update! What a chapter!!!!!!!

aarrgghh! another evil cliffie. aside from that, what a sad chapter. what with hermione's feelings for severus, who feels betrayed by her, and then poor remus on top of it all. no wonder hermione made a REALLY BAD DECISION. and now they're caught and injured, too. i hope the wait for the next is short!

So good!!Can't wait to see what you have planned next.

I don't think getting arrested is going to be considered making progress. Oh hell. What we need here is a powerful "friend" to help out. "Malfoy?"

I kind of want to smack all of them at the moment.  I'd love to see them explain all of that. 

Dear, dear, we ARE in trouble, aren't we?  (smile)

Oh drats the evil cliffie!  Severus is suspitious, Lupin seems to have a 'crush' and now they are all caught.  I can't wait to see how you get this straightened out.

You truly are a gifted writer Rhiannon! You had me on the edge of my seat for the entire chapter!Thanks for sharing your awesome talent :)

It's ok, I love cliffhangers! But such sadness in this chapter. Tragic realizations. I think Hermione has been fooling herself a little bit, and reality has pretty much clubbed her upside the head.

Author's Response: Yes, you are exactly right.  She needed the waked-up call, though.  Of course, now she is emotionally involved, which can't be good, all things considered.

Ah, their misery is so easily felt! That was quite a cliffhanger, at that. I can hardly wait for the update! :)

They're in it up to their eyeballs now. Hopefully Hermione can avoid having a criminal record before she's even born.

oooooooooooooooooooooooo dearrrr...........~

Somehow, I think the answer to the "how did you know" question is going to get very...involved.

A bad day indeed. How are they going to get out of that situation?

Oh what a chapter - well Severus knows now that she is lying. He is back to plotting. They are trapped in the shop and now unconsious. Cannot wait for the next chapter.

I loved every word of this chapter!Your witty sense of humour just kills me..."Deciding that the best way to deal with the five-ton elephant parading through the conversation in a silver mask and black robes was to pretend it didn’t exist, she said reasonably," and as always, your characterization is dead on!5 stars *****

Aaargh! *chucks a pie at author*This story is getting better and better with each chapter...even with the cliffies, as much as I loathe 'em!

So it looks like Mundungus isn't the only one who had to "supplement" his income. Or was Remus there to pawn something else? Guess I'll have to wait and see.

Enjoying muchly!

I admit I got a Ron flashback from GOF when Severus 'suddenly noticed' she was female.

I hope, if Remus isn't the thief, that they didn't cause enough of a scene to scare the real one off.

Looking forward to the next! And seeing more of Remus.

What a bombshell - it was Lupin that stole from them. Poor Hermione getting hit by the curse - at least she remained calm while they seemed to panic a little

I was thrilled to see an update, and what a twist at that! Severus and
Hermione are absolutely aware of each other, but I have to wonder...if Lupin is
to be like Koga, will he start referring to Hermione as his woman? ;)
