oh goody, i love magic combined with science!well done, even if you did scare us with the evill cliffhanger of dreams in the first chapter.  Thanks for this.

why did she suspect she had thrown out the eggs?  doesn't she recall?  I would.  That being said, because that bothered me at first, I have to say otherwise this is a very suspenseful chapter.  very good. 

What a fabulous, creepy, lovely, dark way to bring Severus back to life.  I do so hope they discover some way to extend his life beyond the allotted three years, but one can never tell with these dark tales?

Oh wow! I love how clinical you have made this resurrection.

Very, very interesting! It reminds me of one of those old, perfectly awesome black and white sci fi movies-- an aura of creepiness pervades.The details concerning the science of resurrecting the dead were brilliant and innovative. And it is just SO like a government body to issue an order for a resurrection simply because they need the best Potions master for a job.I am saddened that he only has three years to live, however. Perhaps this might change?

You do such a great job of making this deliciously scary. I kind of have, in the back of my mind, the idea that this is Severus as kind of evil-zombie or something, but that's probably because I read the first chapter before the prologue! LOL Guess it could be any DE in the black clothes, couldn't it. Or just any old guy. I know when I'm alone in the house I get skittish like that. *shudders*

Author's Response: Lol. Me too. It's worse when I've been reading horror and I'm alone. The house creaks because its old, and it always sounds like there is someone downstairs. It's at this point I go and hide in the wardrobe. *giggles*   
I'm glad that you like this so far. I hope you'll enjoy the rest of it.

This is such a wonderful premise! I actually completely missed the prologue, so I'll go back and r&r that now, but I'm looking forward to the rest of this. Love all your science-details! :-D

Author's Response: Thank you. Hehe, and you know how I love to write them. They make everything so much fun. *grins* 
I hope you'll enjoy the rest of it.

I can't believe Hermione forgot her wand! Although phoning the police would have been smart, being able to protect herself with her wand would have been smarter. I wonder why the room gets colder when the intruder gets near, or is it her imagination? Perhaps it's Severus come back from the dead or near-dead? I definitely hope you update soon.

Oh, good God! And you leave me there!! Evil, evil cliffie! As usual, I'm entranced by your prose. I don't think I was breathing through most of that. Very much looking forward to more (and to air!)

Gah! Straight out of the best horror movies. Very good start.

You do know Novum Labratories is real, don't you? This is their profile:Novum Inc is a private company categorized under Testing Laboratories and located in Pittsburgh, PA. Current estimates show this company has an annual revenue of unknown and employs a staff of approximately 100 to 249.Hee hee hee....

Your writing is so enchanting. The way you describe things... Well, I could only hope to ever acheive such ability. I do hope you update soon, as I am positively anxious to know what happens next!

Ooh - really creepy!  And I thought that the whole ministry thing was creepy (scary actually).  Hermione is really in a bad place...Great chap - although I think I would label it as sort of an interlude.  Doesn't matter though - except that it's great.  I look forward to an update!

I liked his point of view, it's so other-worldly

The Ministry is an arse, as usual! Hope Snape and Hermione can sort them out.

He thought about killing her in such a detached way. Almost analytical, as he tries to figure out just who he is supposed to be. It worries me about what will happen when he discovers he has been lied to by his angel.

Chillingly beautiful, just like the winter day Severus describes.  There are so many possibilities with this story! I am going to be reading every update eagerly to see where you take us.

A bit eerie but coming along very well.

Good chapter - Hermione is really stuck between a rock and a hard place.  I hope Snape remembers soon!  I look forward to another update.

That was very poetic and beautifully written.

interesting combination of Muggle Science and magic, perhaps the MoM has moved with the times somewhat since Voldemort's demise.

very scary start... hope the intruder is there for less than nefarious purposes *wishful thinking*

I wondre who it was I hope it wasn't Severus but it would be a good twist if it was.I hope everything will be reaveled in the next chapter.

Hmmm, I'm not quite sure what to make of this chapter. It was extremely short and really only implied movement in the plot. Introspection is all fine and good, but it would have been nice to have something more to read here. I really did find myself disappointed that that was all there was to this chapter. Please do continue this, for I am insanely curious about what happens next!

Ah, so the last chapter was a nightmare. Just how much of it was her nightmare? Was she really sunburned, or was that just part of the nightmare?This chapter was very Frankenstein-like to me. I'm not entirely convinced that the Ministry would have so many Muggle-influenced things, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I loved that Severus's personality has remained much the same, even through death and amnesia. I'm not so sure that I quite believe Hermione's characterisations, but I'm going to go on to the next chapter anyway...
