There was so much to take in with this chapter. 17,000+ words and no "mindless sex stuff". Sirius and Hermoine's reactions to their daughter's death. The Grangers' reactions to their daughter's experience. Remus and Sirius's conflicting thoughts and emotions. Snape and Lupin's discussion about Hermione and Lily. Actually, Sanpe in general. Your author's notes. (*hugs*) A lot to take in. I'm going to have to read this one again before I can give a thorough review. However...

Just posting because I'm checking back obsessively for updates and it's getting frustrating to show up and be, well, frustrated, so figured I should do something just so I feel like I showed up for a reason.

Okay. Here goes...
I'm really caught in this controversy about Sirius. He has been acting like a real *** (put any bad word here). But besides his own psychology, he has Kreacher and Azkaban to influence his behaviour. Still, some certain thoughts were really his own, for example, ''it was okay if she orgasmed" sad excuses for logic. And, unlike Remus, he never tried to analyze his behaviour ("Why? I don't know, I just am"). Yep, he's pretty clueless about everything. So I do not really know what to think about him. But no matter what, I never felt any pity, probably because he's had a, um, good time. OMG, I think I'll never be able to solve this problem.
Adara's death... oh. Just when it seemed like Hermione had been hurt with everything in any possible way and there could be nothing new to cause her pain, it had to happen. Oh, I really want Sirius to hurt... and in some twisted way I'm glad that it was his daughter who died and not Ron's. Maybe he'll even use his brains and realise whose fault it is. But if he blames Hermione... it will be just too much.
Letting Kreacher exist looks like a possibility for him to escape. As well as not telling Hermione the cause of her daughter's death is a possibility for her learning it the hardest way. Of course, you shouldn't tell us anything, but given these possibilities, I'm pretty nervous to read next chapters. Anyway, I believe in your abilities to provide us with great stuff ^_^

JayFortuna - I don't know if you read other reviews, but I just had to comment because your feelings on Adara's death mirrored my own. When I first read this chapter, I was absolutely devestated. However, there was that small part of me that was relieved it was Adara and not Persimmione which made me feel very, very guilty.
And I too have been worried about Kreacher remaining alive, but now you've added one more concern. I didn't even think of using info on the baby's death against Hermione. Merlin.
See this, Babs? We love you, but you're evil!! ;)

Chapter 31
What an Easter present! So sad, so cruel!
I'm happy at least Persemone is alive, but Hermione is not nearly close to recovery. In fact, I'm afraid she'll crash badly, in the first line.

Oh thank god. Finally. I can breathe again.
It was relatively easy to pick up that Remus was Snape, because you got the tone of his speech just right. Though the "Gr- Hermione" hint was very helpful too. LOL And thank you thank you thank you thank you for not making Dumbledore a part of the sex. I can't get with that one. (His youthful love for Grindlewald can last forever, as far as I see it.)
I really thought Kreacher had done something to Adara, I didn't get it right away that she was smothered by Hermione until reading your notes. Once again, instead of taking the easy or obvious way out, you've totally mindfucked us all. (crying)
Great writing.

Two chapters to read! Did I miss the first one or did you post two together? Anyway, I'm glad to see Draco isn't completely heartless. Bella is beyond twisted, it makes you wonder if she too had a perverted house elf giving her lessons. I bet Lucius will not be pleased. And Poor Adara, she was so young and innocent. As if Hermione didn't have enough problems now she'll have this guilt to add on to it. Sirius will be devastated, but considering his mental state I wonder if he won't get angry immediately after. Will he blame Hermione or will he realize that this is partly his fault too? And what are they going to do with Kreacher? I sure hope they can find an elf-proof cell for him or Hermione still won't be out of danger. Looking forward to seeing what kind of answers they can get out of him.

One really stupid little nitpicking comment: At the very end, when Severus asks Albus if he'll "tell Sirius about his daughter," you know as well as I that Severus would have said "tell Black about his daughter."
