additional potential ‘Vati threesome’ - YES please :D
I saw the summary for your next story . . . now I know why you needed your crazy muse back ;) - I needed her for the other story, the one that is standing still atm :(. Beside, she returned that way from you :P
just run with it! - you know how insane that creature of mine is...I have no choices but to follow :D Tho, running would be nice pace, at the moment we are galloping, which is not bad, I guess, I want my sanity back as soon as possible XD
Expecting her to step back, he advanced a pace, only to find her blocking his way, arms crossed, looking up at him accusingly. / And the way the fingers of her wand hand flexed against her bicep suggested that she fancied her chances of seeing to it, if he did happen to transgress. - way to go Vati! She is fantastic, and YES please, reward her, she deserves it ;) Hell, we deserve it, after all that happened in this story :P
Their conversation and "conversation" are so sweet and gentle :)
“By hand . . . as that seems to be the manner in which this mess was created.” - hahahaha, the taste of his own medicine perhaps? Small retaliation for all the punishments he gave them? Wicked Hermione :D
“Fuck the books.” She pulled him down onto the pile with her. / against her bed of books - ok that can be...uncomfortable, not to mention damaging to the poor books. What do you have against those books, give them a break, woman :D
This is such a gentle chapter, and after the whole story it is bit...dunno...you keep expecting what is going to happen next? I like it, it is just....normal, something they both need.
Waiting for your next chapter with impatience, and personal desire (I won't say request, nope, no, I won't ;) ) some hot sex scene (leave the love-making to their own privacy :P ). xx
Aww, yayyy!! And hells yes to the Vati reward! Do your Thang!
Mmmmmmmm, Headmaster Bulgy Pants, I've been a very bad girl. I keep reading DS's chapters and forgetting to write a review. Naughty OO.
Obviously I loved that they got back together and came to an understanding. Such a relief. But the remaining questions haunt me. What's going to happen to Voldie? Is he going to die (or is that beyond the scope of this story)?
Call me selfish, but I don't want Vati horning in on Snape and Hermione. I would like to see you do some femslash sometime, but not with this story. For some reason it doesn't seem plausible to me here. (But I've been wrong before. And you know I'll read whatever you write.)
Just two fixes:
"Yes.” He interrupted.-- "Yes," he interrupted.
In one sweet thrust he was fully unsheathed--This could be me being slow, but inside her he's sheathed. But I've been known to misread things.
This story is so different from your last, and I'm loving all the differnt flavors you have to offer. I'm sucked in no matter what. *Bows down a la Wayne and Garth* I'm not worthy. As always, I'm eagerly awaiting the next installment.
I think one of the things I enjoy about you posting about chapter, besides consuming it completely like fiendfyre, is that you reply to the people who comment. Makes me feel special and stuff. This story is among my favorites, and I will "patiently" await the next chapter...... While figeting.... :)
DS,
Chapter 30.
I was sleeping, quite peacefully, when I thought I heard the noise... I looked at my phone and it was 6.35am (two hours before my alarm, might I add)... beer barrels being delivered to the pub nearby woke me. I normally sleep right through it. Feeling quite fresh and rested, I decided to check on your story. And there it was, a freshly whipped-up update! At 6.32am ;-)
I was right to take comfort from the last line of previous chapter -OK(!) fiiiine, I admit, it didn't need any considerable brain power to spot your more-than-a-hint... I was just a bit emotional -blinded by tears... It seems, Dumbledore was not at all as unconcerned about Miss Granger's well-being and planning, as I shamefully suspected at first. Your Dumbledore seems better than original, but I still don't believe he would decide on such step, had he not been already dying of a curse. Anyway it seems he's been planning a many steps ahead -what a relief.
And, I'm glad to see I was not wrong about Draco :-) I am curious to see what his next moves will be.
You are right, the advantage of WIP is the fact, that there is a connection between you and us. I enjoy our little conversations just as much as the story itself. It's nice to be included and appreciated -I mean it both ways.
I can't contain my excitement. Waiting for new orders.
Love Fox xx
P.S.
I just went out on my balcony and shouted "Hello London!" :-D

In the words of the great Kate Bush......Wow! That was an amazing chapter Dessie.And I feel so guilty as you have again stymied me in to liking another character I wasn't so sure of...DD. I loved how you brought in to play how he COULD have "asked" Sev to kill him, but he didn't, though we still were aware of the moral repercussions that would have evoked. I also loved how DD made him headmaster and it wasn't at Voldemort's bidding. Altogether this has been a very satisfying chapter and presumably they are now free...for the moment...to indulge in some serious horizontal tango-ing under no one's orders but their own. Best wishes, Love Ali xxx.
PS.....Wayne Campbell...Wayne's World...Saturday Night Live. When him and his side kick Garth Algar met a star...Madonna or Alice Cooper they prostrated themselves shouting "We are not worthy". I was awe-struck when you thanked me for the last chapter title....she says coquettishly smiling and giggling and twirling a brown curl of hair...........
Great chapter. Very satisfying (non-sexually this time). I'm still eager to see how Hermione and Severus work things out, and I'm curious to see what you plan to do with Voldie.
The dialogue was great BTW. I wish I'd taken notes, but I was flying through it before I went to sleep last night (because you know I couldn't wait till the next day).
Re: Chapter 30
I actually laughed out loud at several points in 'the conversation'. Very nice way to AU things.^_^
DS,
I'm wondering if a distressing period of your literary output is coming to an end yet? ;-)
You are a devious queen of unexpected twists! I fucking love this story. I have never seen much point in reading WIPs before, but I get it now. The experience is much richer, than when reading finished work.
Come on now hurry up, I'm dying to see what's next.
Love Fox xx
P.S.
London is still waiting... and today we have a rare day of sun and near-clear skies. It's looking up :)

I wonder where this chapter will catch you ;) - it is around 1AM, so I'm at home ;)
that’s another shortcoming of mine - I'm opposite of it, clear mind first, solve the problem then panic or rant
he gently lowered Dumbledore’s body - I should've guessed, you and your twisted brain - brilliant!
the morning had left him feeling distinctly nauseous. - I bet it did :D
I suspect if you’d been anywhere close by when she’d first arrived, you may have found yourself divested of a certain part of your anatomy. - LOL!!! Nope, no chance, she's smart enough not to damage anything she might need in future ;)
You are not to return to the fold of the Dark Lord./ But never ask of him what I asked of you. It must be his own choice, not a condition—a manipulation that I regretted every single day. - you presented Dumbledore as much better man than I'll ever be able to see him :)
“How?” Dumbledore rolled his eyes in exasperation. “Did you want me to tap you on the shoulder and whisper, ‘Keep it up Severus old chap, nearly there!’?”/ “And in regards to your question about whether I would have substituted myself in her place for you. The answer is ‘no.’ You may be a handsome man, Severus, but there are only certain sacrifices that I’m willing to make.” - ok I'm literally ROFLing right now XD You are fantastic and twisted and I adore your mind :D
It was another of his deep regrets, something else he wished he’d never conceived, but perhaps there was to be something positive to come from it also. - don't tell me, that is his too? :O
And what did you do my muse? The insane creature won't help me write single word of on-going story, but I have almost 5k words of something so bizarre and twisted (for me) that even I'm confused, but still writing atm :S
