Ah, the dismissive gesture of Snape regarding the Healer was for some reason hilarious. It was actually what I thought he would do if he ever encountered someone like that Healer.
So it seems that whenever the Lord/Lady was planning on releasing the vassals, they died of a heart attack. I wonder if that is the bond's way of punishing the Lord/Lady. That, or they were both murdered by someone.
That Harry wouldn't mind dying to release the Slytherins doesn't really surprise me, but it's still incredibly stupid of him. After the sacrifices his parents made and to a certain extent even Sirius (talking about Sirius, it's been a while since you last wrote a story with him alive in it XD Ignore that little ramble), one would think that he would be more careful with his life *shakes head*
Well, at least Hermione would be there to smack some sense in him.
I wonder how Draco will appeal to Harry - it's not like they ever had a good bond. I'm surprised it was Narcissa who suggested they use the life-debts and not Lucius. For some reason I thought Lucius more likely to use those bonds than Narcissa. Oh well. It will certainly be interesting to discover whether or not Harry will ever find out why Draco would like to get close to him.
Anyway, like always a great chapter that answered some of the questions ^^ I'm looking forward to the next chapter :)

"He might have to be his Lord's Shield, but he would make the shield out of Dark magic and bad temper, not bleating Gryffindor mercy." This is my favorite line so far.

The Lord's Shield! Cool! What a neat idea. And for Severus to be the Shield too! I love it. I don't think that Healer
should be trusted at all. And now Harry is under a spell?

Yeah, after this chapter, I'm really distrustful of that Healer. I wonder what she told Hermione. Cases in the last ten years haven't appeared in books yet? That sounds fishy to me - especially considering what kind of breakthrough it would be if a Lordship bond was broken in that manner. I'd assume people would want to document that experience and bring out to the public in the form of books as soon as possible.
But we can trust Hermione to search relentlessly for the answer until she finds it, I suppose.
I had to admit though that it was a weird mental image I got when Hermione pulled Harry's eyelid back to stare into his eyes LOL My instinct would have been to smack the hand that came close to my eye XD
The Healer is kind of a hypocrite though. She was saying every human life is valuable, yet she seemed to not mind that Blaise had tried to kill Harry, and the bond only reacted in his defense - actually, not that I think of it, with her claiming she knows so much about bonds, she should have realized that the bond is a seperate (at least I assume it's kind of seperate) thing that reacts in the Lord's defense.
Will Snape continue to have the role as Shield, now that the bond sent him to Blaise to deal with him? Like, the bond wouldn't shift the Shield position from one vassal to another, depending on the situation or so? Although Snape seems to be the best choice for the position (did the bond decide that or Harry subconsciously?)
Hm, the review came out longer than expected. Oh well *shrugs* Great chapter like always :) I really enjoy reading your stories!

about #6...
It's ONLY been a day? Daaayyuuumm! >_<
...and leave it to Severus Snape to break it down...HARD over that thick
skull. Too bad the other Slytherins weren't there to hear that speech, cuz
they do need to hear some type of common sense at this point.
The Lord's Shield? I like that...and Severus is perfect for that. Now if Blaise will get
his head out of his a$$, he would be the perfect Sword [cutting enemies to the quick], Pansy would be the perfect
Shield Maiden [deflecting enemies with her words], Goyle the perfect Soldier [keeping the enemies at bay] and Draco
would be the perfect Warrior[fighting the higher ups in the political arena].
...and I hope Severus startss to see his worth & I think that's it. :-)

gosh I love Severus. Feel free to threaten Blaise all you want to because Blaise is an idiot. I'm worried about what spells that healer taught Harry to do to himself. I don't trust her a bit. He better tell Severus about them before he tries anything.

For some reason I don't trust the Healer. Her answer to breaking the bond is too easy. While it does make sense that not exercising the bond would cause it to weaken eventually, that solution seems too easy to really work. I don't know - I just don't get a good feeling of her when reading her explanation.
Pansy's view was nice and expected when she talked about using Harry's name to get higher up - that's the way of a Slytherin I suppose.
Great chapter like always :)
