I absolutely love this story. The intelligent witty banter is priceless. Your selection of words is very crafty, and it is fun to constantly looking up new vocabulary. I love the way you are developing the relationship between Lucius and Hermione from at first utter animosity to now tender love. Wonderful!
I am a fan of your take on the sorting hat. It is one of my favorite "persons" now. Lucius actively endeavoring into bribing the hat to sort his twins into Slytherin once they become of Hogwarts age ... priceless :D
You take great care to present the long term friendship between Snape and Lucius, with all their emotional background, and the situation with Snape now being married to Lucius' ex-wife. Everything you describe sounds so believable and sincere. I am deeply impressed.

Thank you very much for this wonderful story.

So the ROR speaks? WOW, never would have thought of that. Good job Labib! So, find the entry point, isolate the delivery system, locate source, and maker, and somebody is going to be in a fairly large amount of trouble! I can hardly wait. just one question: what is this compulsion we all have to give Hermione twins? By my count among the various stories I've read, she's had twenty-three sets, I think (but I might be wrong). Not that I'm against twins, Just a bit curious.

The reactions on Hermione were very hormonal and acurate........ Not that I know first hand, but nice........... You have never failed making me laugh on each chapter............ Beautiful........

Lucius will most certainly feel her wrath when Hermione finds out about his arrangements. If I didn't like to see her go off on him so much, I might feel sorry Slytherin schemer. Oh well!

This is my first review since I'm finally caught up, and it's at my favorite part...babies! I love Granger/Malfoy babies. The 'preg' warning was the first reason I started to read this story. The fact that the characters made me LOL was a bonus :) I was wondering how how Hermione could not have been pregnant before, especially with references to Lucius' umm..."wonky wand"...

Keep writing, I'm really looking forward to what heppens next...

I'm loving it! Truly I avoided it after the first few chapters, finding Lucius intolerable and Hermione unlikeable... But this is LaBib, of course I couldn't stay away for long. NOW it's just plain perfect, I think you've painted a very realistic picture of what these two would truly be like as they got to know one another. Now that genuine love is at play on both sides I'm flying high, as realistic or not I was squicked earlier. What can I say? I'm a cheese puff at heart. And Twins! Brilliant. So many possibilities, and you'd better not be considering miscarriage missy. I apologize for not reviewing more frequntly, but I read this on my phone, and this short review has taken about five minutes to tap out on this little keyboard, so you see my dilemma. (Not to mention whatever spelling/grammer mistakes must be floating around up there.) I'll make a stronger effort in the future, remembering how much feedback can mean. :) In summary, great story (as always) great chracters, great plot, and now that they care for each other, great sex. You're the whole package wrapped up in regular updates. <3

Another appearance of the sorting hat! I really love the way you use him. I'm worried a bit about the little Malfoys, though. What if one or more of them are actually Griffindors? How will they survive all of those scheming Slytherins? Daddy Malfoy will probably be too smitten to harden them to the possibilities. ;D Twins! I didn't expect twins! Lovely. I started out with twins, lost one early but I remember the early breast enlargement and the bizarre early ten pounds of weight that I just couldn't seem to lose but didn't hit me anywhere but my 'gut'. And thank you for your explanation of wizard genetics in this story. It differs a bit from what Jo says, so it really helps with the perspective of how the story is developing. The situation with the purebloods and the muggleborns makes more sense now. And a sentient ROR is an excellent idea! And it's ornery, too! lol. Poor Lucius had better be on his best, slippery political self. He needs to know where the toxin is entering. Now I have to think about things in your world that the old lady in the parchment store, students at Hogwarts, and businessmen in the wizarding world all come into contact with that would be able to transfer the toxin...

ch 46 - poor Hermione, with pregnancy hormones AND that anti-Pureblood toxin in her system. Sounds like Luna has things under control. Lucius should tell Hermione about Snape being godfather, but she has choice of godmother; not sure about names for babies, but I assume they each have veto control. I enjoyed the Sorting Hat's appearance, and what a deal they made! Had to laugh at the Room of Requirement being sentient; definitely no more sex in the RoR. Hmm, can the RoR be Obliviated? Heh! Thank you for the new chapter!

Just a quickie from me this time, but feel free to keep tabs for future recompense...

You know I enjoy the steamy sections, but the banter? It's SUPERB. *is tempted to hit the Slytherins with a Chastity Curse just to keep the railleries coming*

Nah... Not even I'm THAT cruel.

I simply adored this chapter. I was chuckling at several different points, obviously enjoying the witty dialogue.

Hermione was a hoot in the beginning of the chapter with her wayward emotions. It was laughable how one moment she was hating him, blaming Lucius for all the horror of her life and the next she's clutching onto him like a babe with a security blanket. Too funny. I especially loved the line about ruining his tie but that he could use it later to tie her up.

Snape was great in this chapter, although I am definitely not a Snape fan. It was somewhat endearing when he quietly asked Lucius if he was going to be godfather or not. Very sweet, if a Slytherin can be sweet.

Let's see, what else. Oh, Lucius admitting that his wand is broken. Honestly, it cracks me up everytime Snape mentions how faulty it is, but Lucius admitting that it was sputtering and wonky was classic. I laughed so hard at that part. I loved how he said that he was so fond of it that he tried to fix it himself. LOL

Last thing and then I'm done. The deal with the hat to sort the twins into Slytherin was great. Only he could think like that and end up taking that much control over his children. LOL. Honestly though, I really don't think that the kids would have been sorted into any other house anyway. Hermione has too much Slytherin in her and combined with Lucius.... they are going to have one hell of a life with their two children.

So, great work and update soon!

TWINS!! Holy Hell you aren't going to go easy on Luc are you?! This is gonna get really interesting if Hermione's early mood swings are any indication. I can't wait to see what the ROR finds out about the origin of the toxin and how it's being administered. And may I just say....Snape is sounding a little jealous at Luc's good fortune. Bad form for him.

Wonderful Update!!!!
