Hmmm, I wonder how Hermione's insecurities will manifest themselves in her relationship with Severus...methinks there is some angsty humor ahead ;) Keep up the good work!!!

I hope Hermione kicks chance and Lily's untouchable memory to the curb. I never did like that character much... I found her flaky, shallow and quite the opposite to the perfect personna that JKR seemed to want her to be perceived as. Blah.

Excellent. I look forward to reading more.

Hi there!

Boy, it sure seems that a storm's a coming, doesn't it? Our Hero has to open that book, and see what's replaced his (surely) elegant prose; Hermione has to become further depressed and down due to the LPP ("Lily Potter Problem"); they have to deal with the Ministry's almost-certain crackdown on Severus' cell circumstances and the cagey marriage; the Mulcibers have to be made public; Hermione will decide to sell her company; the whole world will find out to whom she's married, curtesy of the jackass hitting on her at that party..... Lots of balls in the air, and I'm sure you'll keep them all aloft.

I hate not being able to review after every chapter, but please know that I am rooting for you, 100%. It takes talent to weave a web this complex.

Cheers
CB

Hermione should have more self confidence. I can not wait until she does.
Thanks for the great story.

Ooh, angst and insecurity. On everybody's part. Better get Harry a copy of the book, I guess. Good chapter!

Ahh poo. Didn't realise how much I missed since uni started again.

Severus needs to stop punishing himself. I know that will take time but it's getting a bit annoying. I would go out of my mind if I was in Hermione's shoes, having to live in two separate places, travelling so far just to be with your husband.

I hope the Weasley's will accept Billy and Ginny. I think they're cute together. And the Ministry better watch out, a storm's coming...

You're right, he doesn't strike me as the encourageing kind of teacher either. But I think that he might be more or less approachable and crushing, depending on the student. But well, on with the new chapters...

He should have been prepared that she'd want him out of prison. I mean honestly, they get along so well! Did he really think that she'd never try to coax him out of his self imposed punishment? That seems too easy to me!

And she's jeallous! That's so sweet! Am I right guessing that the misterious angel is a certain L. Evans? Oh, Hermione is so in for a surprise!

Ginny kicking the Ministry employees asses? That's good! They deserve it!

Lovely read, as always. Thumbs up!
