Again, a solid chapter. You're so totally with them, in their heads, feeling it with them, experiencing it with them. And now, after all these chapters of healing with them and working it through, you've just ramped it up with Snape's return.

Honestly, I've usually got not patience for cliffhangers, but this one has me throughly stressed. LOL

Looking forward to the updates.

You recommended this to me before but I only read through the first couple of chapters. This time I read through all 16 chapters. It gets a lot better once they escape the manor house. I like the interaction between the trio and the inclusion of Madam Pomfery who very rarely gets such attention.

From the fire attacks, and the heat, I was seriously thinking Harry was going to die and resurrect as phoenix animagus in some of the early chapters.

The revenge list is a good idea and underlines something for me that I noticed on my last read through of Half Blood Prince: Harry is one of few modern heroes that's unabashedly motivated by revenge. Even Dumbledore acknowledges and even encourages this sentiment when talking to Harry about prophecies.

Revenge is usually thought of as a 'bad' motivation in modern things something a villian or anti-hero would have as a opposed to a pure hearted hero powered by love like Harry.

Okay, I really like the story so far, but fer the luvva gawd please work on your formatting. Its very annoying every few chapters to have to copy-and-paste into Notepad just because suddenly the sentences run off the right side.(chapters 6, 8, 10, 11 & 12)

Another solid chapter. I was waiting for Harry and Hermione to finally be able to let it out, and you didn't disappoint. It was so emotional, beautifully done.

Honestly, angsty stuff is my favorite, and sometimes my hormones just demand it, LOL, and this is just overflowing with it. Well done and conveyed so strongly and believably. I particularly appreciate the detail, and the little moments that might be throwaway to you when you write it, but that convey so much.

The only negative that jumps out in all of it is the stray punctuation issues, and even those are not huge.


As usual, very much looking forward to the updates.

Late schmate. As I so often say to ff authors... we gratefully take what we can get and for those who bitch and moan over it... seriously, get a life. ff authors have lives to so sometimes the story is gunna be late being upddated. *shrugs
Are they going to end up a trio or is this bonding over healing? Not sure how he's going to react to Ginny being around. Harry's still a kinda volitile. Not sure Gin's going to understand. Mio and Ron are doing a pretty good job for amatures... at least they have an idea where he's coming from.
