I apologize for not signing in but I'm just too tired to care :) I really love this chapter. What am I saying? I love all of your chapters. This is one of the best stories I've ever read. I love the dinamics between all the characters. You've breathed life into everyone. And you've made use of characters that have always been there just waiting for a storyline, instead of throwing in a bunch of OCs. Not that there's anything wrong with original characters, but you get my meaning. I mean, Marietta is so fantastic and I love that you've brought her to life.

I love the developing relationships between everyone and the fact that even now, years later, they're still learning stuff about one another. The moment between Harry and Severus on the hill was beuatiful. Then again, all their moments are amazing. I find their developing relationship mezmerizing in it's progression.

There's just the right amount of angst in this to make it enjoyable. I mean, there's an obstacle to be defeated and it's difficult with no obvious solution but it doesn't feel hopeless. I mean, they're working for their happy ending but at least I feel they could actually reach it in the end. Does that make sense? If not, my apologies, it's 3am and I'm exhausted. But I know reviews are food to the writer's soul so I wanted to feed you for such a good job :)

Loved Ch. 42! I felt like I was waiting forever--but it was worth it. I can't wait for the next chapter.

Ch. 42 Ooh, it seems that Severus can play well with others, after all. They just have to be geniuses. I like Harry

Another great chapter. I'm so relieved that what followed last chapter was almost anticlimactic - a lot like real life where perspectives the day after a fight or huge disappointment are often muted and able to be approached. The fact that Snape can is progress. I like this Harry - I don't think of him as weak but considering and capable of taking one day a time. And there's nothing like a project to improve the mood. Clever to make a joint project with Marietta.

Thank you! I've been checking for updates every day since ch 41 was released. I was so worried Severus was going to be caught either by the Ministry or Death Eaters (though those seem to be pretty much one and the same at this point). I love it that Severus is getting some of his old snarkiness back, but in a more friendly way. Although I wish harry hadn't dropped the whole "did you really mean the hitting on me thing" subject so easily, I suppose that'll come up again later? Very much looking forward to Severus's personality coming back/developing more in the coming chapters.

Really nice job with this latest chapter. ^^ I loved Harry's quote at the end of this. And Severus' reaction to seeing Harry and Marietta was kind of adorable and sad, but I like how you resolved that even if Severus still couldn't voice to Harry that it did mean something more than what Harry concluded. Lovely job so far.

I am fully enjoying this story, and I hope you will update soon! You're an evil cliff-hangery-type person, keeping us on the edge of our seats and wondering what will happen next.
