A/N: Re: LittleBird\'s Question on Snape\'s fainting.
We all deal with trauma in different ways. Hermione\'s explanation of Snape\'s fainting spells is Post-Traumatic Stress Syndrome. This is a complicated disorder which I would never wish to trivialize. (I actually was the first on the scene at a college friend\'s apt. after a murder/robbery had taken place and, along with my friend\'s roommate, discovered my best friend\'s body. I suffered dreams, nightmares, emotional numbness and flashbacks for years.) Post-torture, Snape as a Wizard deals with any amount of stress right now by having a shut-down physiologically-- he faints. It is a defense mechanism. His symptoms may change over time and he may even brew up a magical nerve tonic that we Muggles don\'t have access to. Whatever the case, I\'ve always said that I am no more than a layman writing for entertainment and wish to trade harsh psychological reality for the illusion of truth or verisimilitude. Therefore, though I do not wish to trivialize what happened to Snape by saying, oh yeah he\'s fine now, I have simplified his reactions to an extreme.

Another one more amazing than the last. I\'ve never read another fan fic that is so rivetting!

Interesting about Snape\'s health -- wonder why he keeps passing out? I like how you\'ve explained the differences with what happened to the children -- puts our Snape in a much more sympathetic light. I\'m steadying myself for the next chapter and the show that the two wizards have planned -- have a feeling the results will be heartbreaking.

Oh, thank god you are a reliable updater, April! I am just in knots over what the wizards in red and blue are goin to do to that darling little Sarah... It\'s all the worse because I have a four-year old girl myself... Great Chapter, great story... I\'m entralled!

Chapter 16... Things are making better sense to me now where the triplets are concerned!!! The Red & Blue wizard are really hell bent on revenge!!! It will be interesting to see what happens if Harry is the one that goes to the other realm!!! Will he get so caught up in his \"wife\" & eeineeing Sirius again that he won\'t do what needs to? I would hope that his caring for Remus would help keep him on task!!!

I can\'t blame Hermione for being mad at Severus!!! I do feel that he meant well & that he wanted to finish the cure jointly with Hermione, but she will see him not getting the rest of the cure as not caring about Remus!!! I still hope that they will be together when all is said & done!!!

Til chapter 17, Deb >^..^<

You know, I\'d been thinking that the brothers were the Creevey boys at first, but the more I read the more I figured it wasn\'t them. I think it\'s going to be very hard for Harry to go over and see the life he has with Lavender and the children in the Silver Heather realm. Hope that both Snapes and Hermiones work out their problems.

::squeal:: Oh, I was so friggin\' happy when I saw that this was updated...And actual Hermione/Sevvie, not their dopplegangers...Very cool! :) Definitely looking forward to more!!!

Holy POOP! That was fan-bloody-tastic! Do you know how long that took me to read, only to find out it wasn\'t finished! GAH!!! LoL....I don\'t mind the suspense. It\'s all right. But HOLY CRAP it was good. I like it. Loads. Never thought I\'d actually like an AU fic, but there ya go.arn arn something new everyday. :)

So...did two of the triplets survive? can can\'t wait to see what happens! The chemistry you have going between the unmarried Snape and Hermione is fantastic and soooo hot! Love this story! se use update soon!

Another brilliant chapter. OK so I was wrong in my suspicions. Was Dr Snape simply inaccurate in casting his unforgivables?.
