Tension build-up again! Except this one is worry rather than anticipation of more pleasant things. Ah well, you still have me on edge. :)

I am absolutely amazed at how thoroughly you\'ve researched parts of your fic, down to latin and flowers and temperatures! Kudos, Betz, because I doubt I\'d ever put so much research into a fanfic. But I really do appreciate your efforts -- it\'s very nice to know you value your writing and readers so much that you want your story to be as acurate as possible ^_^

As always, I look forward to the next chapter!

Hi Betz,
Enjoyed chapter 40. Graveyard scene and meeting Professor Sprout was charming - bet Sprout never thought she\'d make Headmistress. No doubt her office is full of mud and cuttings in jars by now. Poor Snape - he\'s so stressed. But I\'m sure that he and Hermione are going to shag and shag and shag (well, I can live in hope).
Power to your quill.

LOVE IT! I loved what Severus said to Lavender about not having anymore masters, and I loved the talk Hermione had with Albus and Minerva. This was a great chapter, now I am anxious to read the next one! LOL I can\'t wait to see what she does, if she blurts out she knows him, or goes with her plan to say nothing. I hate that she is in dispair, but I would be too if I was her! Keep up the GREAT work!

Betz, a very nice chapter again. I so much enjoy your story that I imagine what happens next when I can\'t fell asleep immediately. (Therefore, I knew it was Lavender - of course I wondered that brilliant Hermione needed such a long time to think of the Moody-infused danger...). You know, I just love Sev, and hasn\'t he become a sexy man in your fic? I really hope we will have some nice juicy ( right word? :):):) story...sorry for my mistakes - unfortunately I am not a native speaker.
My imaginations of the future: A Lavender-Snape branch in USA (Kentucky, hihi, joking) where they work and brew. Hermione pays flight tickets (rember her credit card (:)) and send them via muggle transport (i.e. plane) abroad. Hermione has a well-paid job in the Lavender company and travels forth and back to her LOVER. Besides, she is working on the defence of Draco and Sev....I am really looking forward to your next chapter!

I do apologize, lettng my evil twin lose on your poor and unsuspecting betas. I now have her chained to a chair while I read this chapter aloud. You should have seen her thrash about wantng more. HEHEHE. Serves her right.

Great Chapter though,just enough palpatable tension. And I do love the way the scene ended. Excellent. Bravisimo. I can\'t wait till Chp.41 or the Chp to \"the ultimate question with the ultimate answer\", Chp. 42.(Douglas Adams fnas should know). :) And I am curious, will I need to bring sugar for the lemonade or not?

Whoops, I apologize for it has taken all night to wrangle Jess into that chair so she wouldn\'t chat up the board with noonsense; but I mispelt the word....palpable. Sorry.

And I am glad you liked the plot device, use it if you like. Would be interesting to see Ginny become pregnant with Draco\'s baby and not know what to do...And the consequences would be interesting to see.
