I am really enjoying your fic. A good story with lots of interesting dilemmas. My two cents....why can\'t Draco, if he wants to be in a commited relationship with Ron, look into aritificial insemination (his sperm), donor eggs, and surrogate mothering? I have yet to see a slash story where these options are considered. All these things are callcally possible aave ave occured...so....why not? Does having a gay relationship exclude being able to have biological children? I can think of examples in real life of gay women bearing children with donated sperm...so again....why not? A bit more complicated for a man, but not impossible....especially when you can afford to pay.

Not sure where you are going with Hermione and her pregnancy. That\'s quite a problem there. I\'m sure Draco would take in his half-sibling if Hermione can bear to continue the pregnancy and to give birth....which seems very uncertain at present.

Look forward to more.

So Hermione keeps the baby, and slowly begins to love it, finds love with Severus, and lives happily ever after. Well, that overdone, cliched, and so not true to life. I do enjoy your story and will probably continue to read it, but I don\'t enjoy the preachy tone that this chapter has taken at all. Don\'t say that this didn\'t reflect your opinions about abortion, and then list pro-life websites at the end. Don\'t insult readers intelligence like that.

And for what is worth from someone in the medical field, those websites are incredibly biased and some statements and just plain untrut. T. There are much better, unbiased, websites out there pertaining toroduroductive health, and abortion.

This chapter (23) was very well written!!! You covered quite a lot without actually getting into the graphic end of things, yet got the point across completely. I couldn\'t get the 1st link to come up, but the 2nd one, I never knew, never really needed to know. This whole subject is in fact very touchy, but I think you are handling it with total respect & I feel that in itself shows that you are a writer with a conscience!!! I think you are doing a wonderful job of writing from the perspective of a hurt, sad & very troubled mind that is Hermione!!! I will be watching cha chapter 24. Deb >^..^<

I could get into a huge abortion versus life arguement right here. The horror tactics used by the far right and the christian conservatives disgust me. The assumption that they are right and the rest of the world is wrong makes me scream with fury. Overpopulation, reincarnation, science, who cares what other\'s think? They are going to shove their way down the throats of everyone else. (This is not an anti-christian rant, just against people who dictate their views to others.)

Blue and Black Cohash are herbs that has been used as abortants for thousands of years and far past the first trimester, so I can\'t imagine that the wizards don\'t know about it, by the way.

The girl has been raped, what she needs is counseling, where are the psychologists of the wizarding world? The midwives whose job it is to help girls through this?

I am very angry that she is going thorugh all this alone. (Which must mean it\'s a good story, if I have gotten all riled up)

I have been enjoying the story so far, but I think this is the sweetest chapter. Poor Drakey-wakey. His reactions are very realistic and I am sorry the truthgoingoing to be such a problem for him.

I have in fact been enjoying both pairings. I loved Snape\'s snit fit over the mollycoddling Hermione received and I am enjoying Ron\'s confusion.

So, if Bill\'s a ponce too, does that make homesexuality one of the side-effects of in-breeding? : )

So glad that your back & yes, this was well worth the wait!!! I can picture Harry\'s face, seeing what he walked in on;-) Can\'t wait for MORE!!! Curious to see how long it takes for Ron & Draco to move a bit further into their relationship? Also looking forward to hearing more about Hermione & how she & Severus get going + how she\'s going to deal with Draco & her baby!!! Deb >^..^<

I am enjoying this very much. Keep Snape snarky! (Cannot abide a wimpy Snape!)

So, when\'s the next chapter? Is it soon? Can you make it sooner? Would *now* be too soon? Pleeeeeeeease?

DNA is more like blueprints or potion\'s instructions than an actual potion itself. The DNA is used in a similar way as a cookie cutter, except it makes the protiens that make up the you.

I\'m dying here... So just what ARE the conclusions from Hermione\'s report? And when is everyone going to find out about the baby? And and and... Can\'t wait for more. I\'m very much enjoying this. keep up the great work!
