  1. In the Red - Last Step Bickymonster: I really enjoyed this story and I am rarely a fan of super powerful Harry; you manage to make it subtle and interesting enough that it didn't put me off. I loved the development throughout and the story was well paced and interesting. Over all an excellent job and I am glad I read it. Thank you! I'm glad you liked this Harry and the story in general. Thanks for reviewing (and I'm glad you read it, too ). k.: Thank you, thank you, thank you That was great story You're welcome. And thank you for leaving a review! BAFan: Ch. 18 Whew! That resolved itself more quickly than I expected. Thank goodness Severus finally decided to look beyond his first, instinctive reaction and actually LISTEN to what Harry had tried to tell him. At least, I guess that's what happened. In Chapter 16 you wrote something like "He looked at Harry but saw only Potter." In my review I forgot to mention that I really like that line; it conveys a lot of meaning. Off to read the epilogue now. Yeah, Severus was not quite as thick-headed as he sometimes can be, but I guess he realised that sometimes you need to take a leap of faith... Glad you liked that line Ch. 19 Awww. And sniffle. That was a beautiful ending. I won't say "perfect" because perfect would be also getting the answers to the many questions about Harry's job; e.g., why he seemed at times almost to know about future events, such as that he would need an identifying mark on Severus, to name only one example (because I can't remember another another one off the top of my head, lol). Maybe some questions will be answered in a sequel (hint, hint)? I don't know if AFF allows us to mark stories as favourites, but if it does then I will! I guess I can understand that you would like some answers, but I never intended to end this story with a great reveal. I like the mystery and the hint that Severus might get some of those answers even if the reader doesn't. And no, sorry, there won't be a sequel Thanks for reading and sorry I couldn't give you that perfect ending... moodysavage: I have totally enjoyed reading this story and I am so glad at their happy ending!!! Thank you so much for finishing this awesome story Thank you. I'm glad you liked it... No problem! Monique: hi, ich habe in den letzten tagen deine story gelesen und sie ist wirklich super! zum glück habe ich gewartet bis sie fertig war... mach weiter so Danke schön! Ja, ja, dadurch hast du dir ein paar Cliffhanger gespart - deine Fingernägel werden es dir danken ... mihoshi5: I must say your work was a joy to read. I really liked how Harry was able to leave clues for Severus so he could figure some things out on his own. I am glad that Severus and Harry were able to work everything out. Thank you! I'm glad you liked the clues (I really was quite unsure about the chapter with the crossword puzzle because having Severus find out in this way didn't allow for a lot of momentum)... What can I say, I love happy endings... the ElKay: Just wondering if Severus has pockets in his boxers for potions. That must be where the pepper up came from in chapter 15. You know, I wouldn't put it past him. But I was thinking more along the lines of Severus having a secret stash of potions in every single piece of clothing he owns... Seiren: Not a reviewer, but since its finished I wanted to tell you just how much I have enjoyed following this, and I shall be looking out for your name in the future as your story flows well, has barely a mistake and is easy and enjoyable. Thanks again!!! Hey, I'm glad you enjoyed the story and my writing style. Thanks for reading! Four Words BAFan: Ch. 1 Okay, I took took one reviewer's advice and stopped reading not only her review but all of them, 'cause I didn't want the story spoiled. I can already tell that it's going to be different. On to Chapter 2! Yeah, that was good advice. Hope you like the story! Ch. 4 Great job! This was very well done. Loved the second-person POV; very unusual to find that. Good job all around. Thank you! Glad you liked the 2nd person style - this story just seemed to call for it! Thanks!
  2. In the Red - Step Eighteen qwerty: Last chapter? So sad. I'm glad you're writing an epilogue tho! I thoroughly enjoyed this story. Very well written and unique! Great job Afraid so. Thank you and I hope you enjoy the epilogue! themysticaldragon: *Looks at Harry and Severus* See. See what you can accomplish when you pull you heads out of your asses? (north heads, not south) I'm glad you two are getting along better.. and that you two have learned to TRUST one another. Lol, it was a long journey, wasn't it? But they definitely made some progress Sera21: AH! That was lovely *clapclapclap* so happy Sev had the balls to just man up and accept his happiness Still curious about Harrys job though...I mean the secret keeping won't go away... Thank you! No, the secret keeping won't come to an end very soon, but I have every faith in Severus' observational skills so I think they'll be just fine... mnfm: Ohh, this was good, hot, sad, everything. Please tell me there is more in the future? Thank you. I'm afraid the answer is no. There will be the epilogue, but that's it. delia cerrano: The end of a good story is always bitter sweet. I'm very glad there will be an epilog. I hope it is a long one. I love this version of Severus and Harry and their relationship so much. Yep, it is, but it has to come sooner or later... Hope you'll like the epilogue even if it isn't particularly long... Lumcer: I really enjoyed this story! I am also emmencly glad that your updates were not few and far between! I look forward the remaining bit of this story, it really is a well writen tale! KCK-Lumcer Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the story and my writing style kit: only one more chapter left!! noo....you cant just cut off an addict. it could kill me. haha but in all seriousness, i enjoyed this chapter. I'm glad that they got back together. I cant wait to read the epiloque. I know, I know. I'm a terrible person, but I just can't support your addiction any longer. It's time to move on, my dear... Thank you! Anon: SO SO SO GOOD!! Thank you. Glad you liked it!
  3. In the Red - Step Seventeen qwerty: Grrr. They need to stop acting like teenagers and just talk to one another! -____- lol good chapter. Where would be the fun in that? delia cerrano: FOUR LETTER WORDS!!! Why is Harry being so slytherin!! Darn right mean! Cruel to Severus! He, and even Remus, expect Sev to know stuff or figure it out...from how? with what clues? WHAT WENT ON AT THAT GATHERING? It's driving me nuts and I can't figure it out either! Eh, Severus pretty much already figured everything out that happened at the charity event. I think Harry send Remus because he assumed that Severus wasn't making a decision about their marriage because he still had some questions about what happened. And though I agree that Harry is not making things easy on Severus, I wouldn't quite go so far because Harry CAN'T tell Severus a lot of things - that he also doesn't WANT to tell Severus certain things is out of the question, but then again, Severus isn't exactly being an open book... bloody dawn: This is certainly a turning point in their relationship ^^ i can't wait to see what they'll be doing Best read the next chapter then. Thank you for reading my story! themysticaldragon: Honestly, do we need to club these two in the head and lock them in a magic proof room. *Shakes Harry violently* Wake up! This man LOVES you. YOU ARE SAFE with him so stay your scrawny Seeker butt with him! (or all Dinkel's fans are gonna .....) *Pokes Severus in the arm* He's begging you to reassure him. IN more ways than one. Hold him, tell him what he means to you. Other than that, I love your story.. oh.. and sorry about the pillow thing earlier! *gives you cookies* You know, they say violence isn't a solution, but when I kicked my bike once it stopped rattling so I think there might be some exceptions ... Yay, cookies! I forgive you for everything. Thanks for reviewing! kit: drama, drama, drama. I love it too!! I also love the fast update. ugh!! this chapter left me wanting to read more though!! I need to read what happens next. I'm addicted to your story Good to know. You know I really shouldn't support your addiction... BAFan: Ch. 17 Grrr! Those two make me want to shake them until they see some sense. Stupid, stubborn idiots, each in his own way. Maybe a bout of mutual Legilimency would help? Except that Harry's job wouldn't allow that, of course. Sigh. . . . So is Harry "indulging in petty avoidance" as Snape thinks, or has he perhaps gone on a mission for work without letting Snape know -which would be pretty crappy of him so I hope that isn't the reason. Whatever the reason, this is another great chapter! I forgot to mention in my review of Chapter 16 that I found a typo: "amendable" instead of "amenable." Oh, yeah, mind-reading would probably do the trick, but then again, they could just talk about it like two normal adults... I don't know which one is more unlikely ... Thank you and thanks for pointing out the typo! Unintentionally Yours BAFan:Ch. 17 I wasn't going to leave a review until the end of the story, but I just have to say how impressed I am with this chapter! Up 'til now now I've only read "In The Red," but since I love that story so much much I decided to check out your other works. So glad I did! I can tell that this is an early attempt, but there is a perceptible improvement already, just in this story, and the difference between this and In The Red is marked. You have truly grown as a writer, not only in the improved grammar (because that could be due to a good beta) but in the more sophisticated storytelling. I can't wait to read more! Yeah, this was my first story and I was very grateful for the people who helped me improve it and my English in general. I'm not exactly happy with this story anymore (though a part of me will always be proud that I wrote such a long story and that so many people liked it) because when I reread parts of it now I notice all the mistakes and weaknesses and cringe at what I came up with plot-wise. Anyway, I don't want to turn you off of it, so I'm just glad that you noticed my development since then
  4. In the Red - Step Sixteen mnfm: The chapter was great, sad by great. Divorce! Please. After everything they've been through. Thank you! Now that's on the table, let's see if Severus really wants to get a divorce... qwerty: Well didn't see that one coming lol. Harry said that he didn't want a divorce and Severus was angry, cutting Harry's words off. So I'm gonna go ahead and think that Harry doesn't actually want a divorce and was simply trying to show all the facts of the story to Severus, which one possibility is divorce if Severus so wishes. Le sigh. Such a loveable but difficult couple! They wouldn't be nearly as interesting if they weren't so complicated and their relationship so full of misunderstandings... But yes, I think that's exactly what Harry was trying to do. Too bad, he's not so good at breaking the news gently... delia cerrano: DIVRCE!!! Noo say it's not true!! I feel so bad for Severus caring for Harry and having Harry always be just barely out of reach. Never saying anything straight out...and now that he was just getting his life in order he throws this at him. And always that ex of Harry's, Colin in the background. So I'm sorry but did Harry have sex with Lucius or not. How come now it's okay for them to get a divorce. Harry sure made it seem as if he wanted the divorce and Colin wanted him to get it. I sure hope you're going to update soon because I'm weeping and wailing over here. My poor Severus just can't get a break...can't find someone who will care for him and want him and not think he's an ugly, old, poor, nobody left over from the war who should be in Azkaban. Actually, Colin is just Harry's PR-manager and Oliver Wood is his ex-boyfriend, and I don't think either of them has any say in that issue. And no, Harry didn't sleep with Lucius because he realised that it wasn't Severus. And it would be okay for them to get a divorce because Harry saved Lucius' life and thus paid off the life debt... And yes, I'm updating soon, so I hope you'll like the next chapter and that it's not quite as confusing... BAFan: Ch. 16 Wow. My head is spinning. What a fantastic chapter! Loved the crossword puzzle. It seems that this story is winding down, which makes me really sad. Can't wait for the next chapter. Thank you! And yes this story is almost at its end, three more chapters I think... Hope you'll like the next one! kit: ....DIVORCE?! It makes sense ,,,,since it was a contract between them, but I don't like it. Hopefully decisions are not made too rashly. One of them has to admit that they have feelings for the other, but they are both afraid of being hurt I need to read the next chapter to see how this situation develops. Yeah, that would be a good idea, wouldn't it, if they just talked with each other, but then where would I find all this drama? I quite like drama Then go, read the next chapter! Sera21: As ever, you're doing a great job! Keep it up! Getting so frustrated with Harry not saying anything and being open and needy one minute and closed and stand-offish the next. Grrr... Thank you! I can totally understand that, but Severus isn't saying what he really wants either... moodysavage: now I don't know how to feel... upset and stressed that Severus is hurt... annoyed that Harry won't be open about how he feels pretty much forcing Snape to sign because there is NO encouragement that Harry wants to stay married... hopeful that this will force them to admit that they WANT to stay married not because they HAVE to stay married... forget that. Harry messed that up. Severus is going to sign because he feels unwanted isn't he and there is no evidence that Harry feels more than a healthy sex drive. *banging my head on desk* don't be dismayed that you have upset your reader. Quite the opposite-it is a good writer who can get a strong response. Of course now you better get those next chapters out pretty soon that shows they do NOT get a divorce or we may just have to tie you to that computer chair and feed you nothing but bread and water till we get our happy ending. So get typing (I can't stand a hurt Snape). To be fair, Harry might have wanted to give Severus some encouragement, but then Severus got all defensive. And then of course Harry threw him out which wasn't helpful... Yeah, they pretty much messed it up...Thank you!!! Okay, okay, posting the next chapter. Getting tied to to a chair is not my idea of fun themysticaldragon: Okies.. i have a few.. lil beefs. Harry needs to NOT divorce Sev! He needs to open up to his husband and just let Lucius rot in Azkaban! The rotting in Azkaban part I can totally do. For the rest you'll have to read the next chapter... Care Less SlythindorMalfoy: I loved this! I haven't really read a H/Rod/Rab before and it was perfect and you had a fav of mine. I love petite Harry. Keep up the good work! SM Thank you! It's not a common pairing and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
  5. In the Red - Step Fifteen dark-huntressmoony: Hm...i noticed that you said Harry is a what not a who (well you know what i mean) so what is he? can't wait for the next chapter! I was referring to Harry's work. Of course everyone also knows who he is, but in this case the point was that his colleagues use these glamours because then they can do their work without revealing their own identities... Thank you! qwerty: Ahhhh what does Lucius have plan? I wonder if it's really a plot for Voldemort's return... Hmmmmm. Intriguing! Also brilliant use of a bruise to ID the real Severus. Can't wait for your next chapter. Good job! Thank you and you'll find out soon what Lucius was up to... Enjoy the next chapter! bloody dawn: think that after this incident severus will not let the issue about harry's secrets go unnoticed. I can't wait to read what's coming next I think you're quite right ... Hope you'll like the next chapter! Sailor Sayuri: Ch. 15 YAY! Update! *squeals**happy dance* This chapter was GREAT, as always! *winks* Great job! *winks**thumbs up* I'm really worried about Harry! His scar bleeding is always a red flag for Voldemort's presence or magic....what the hell is happening!? Since all the Horcruxes are gone, how is Harry's scar still bleeding since he died to kill the Horcrux in him!? ARGH! You REALLY know how to leave us hanging! *pouts* I REALLY want to know what happens next! *wails* Please update soon!? Pweety Pwease with a LOT of Lemon Drops on top!?!?!? *BIG puppy eyes* Good luck for next chapter! *winks* Kisses! ^^ PS: You gave me a hint, here's the candy! *lol* Interesting questions, let's see if I can't answer some of them in the next chapter.... Lemon drops, yay, now I canlean back in my chair and feel like Dumbledore kit: ....what is going on?!? wah!! i want to know why its hurting harry and why he has doppelgängers and....there are just so many why's xC Did harry figure out that snape had been polyjuiced just by the fact that he attended the event they agreed he would not be attending? I'm sure snape and harry will discuss this after he is released from within the wards.....well, if he can discuss anything regarding it. I appreciate the longer chapters! cant wait to read the next one Well, the doppergängers were already explained (more or less) with Harry's colleagues not wanting to reveal their own identities but still wanting to show what work they are in... And for the rest you'll have to read the next chapter... Thank you! Ann: Amazing chapter. I would love to know how Harry found out about Lucious. Great writing. Thank you! There will be some answers in the next chapter - hope you'll like it! mnfm: You do! It getting better and better. Please update soon! Thank you! Glad you liked it! delia cerrano: Yes, you do deserve kudos for the longer chapter!! How about aother one? What on earth is Harry involved in and what is Lucius' plot? Lol, I think the next chapter is also quite lengthy... and full of answers... TinkerBabe7: looooooove the story. I'm glad it didn't take Harry so long to figure out that Severus was in trouble. I hope Harry is fine and I can't wait for them to rescue Sev. Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying the story so far and I hope you'll also enjoy the next chapter!
  6. In the Red - Step Fourteen delia cerrano: What on earth could Harry be into that keeps him silent with Severus and endangers him??? Severus is saying no to being bottom for Harry? I'm surprised. Saving it for a special occasion? Well, it depends on where Harry got his information, doesn't it? I wouldn't be surprised if his job's security measures covered pretty much everything, no matter how personal the implications... I think Severus is not ready to trust Harry so completely that he would cede control to him... kit: Constant vigilance indeed. I'm curious to read what will occur, if anything does occur, in the next chapter. Poor harry....seems quite frustrating to not be able to say certain things. At least he was able to communicate a portion of it to severus, somewhat. What ever does or does not happen in the next chapter, I hope you'll like it ... I'm glad you noticed that Harry's inability to share certain things with Severus is frustrating for both of them, and not only Harry... Sailor Sayuri: Ch.14 YAY! Update! *squeals**happy dance* This chapter was GREAT as always! Good job! *winks**thumbs up* I'm becoming REALLY frustrated because of Harry's job! Each time Severus mentions it, I'm ready to strangle Harry myself! *lol* Plus the fact that our Golden Boy is scared for Severus's safety, I'm getting scared for our favorite Potions Master! >_< I REALLY want to know what happens next! *wails* Please update soon!? Pweety Pwease with Chocolate Frogs on top!?!?!?!? *BIG puppy eyes* Good luck for next chapter! ^_~ Kisses! ^^ PS: I don't know any other Wizarding Candies, so it's back to chocolate! *lol* But since you like them, I guess you'll be happy! *grins* PPS: I really don't know who would eat Acid Pops either....maybe Dumbledore? *lol* Yeah, I guess Harry's job is not exactly something that makes him more accessible to Severus or the readers Hope you'll like the next chapter. I'm glad you returned to "normal" Wizarding Candies. Can't go wrong with chocolate after all PS: I thought Dumbledore was more of a Lemon Drops kind of guy... moodysavage: I hate worrying about severus' safety. It drives me crazy. Oh no, we couldn't have that. Quick, read the next chapter... Shortsnout: I've just read all the chapters in one sitting; it's rare for me to spend so much time away from all my commitments to do that. I think your story is fabulous! I like the mysterious Harry, and the way they've almost been split into two different people, Potter/Harry. I'm enjoying the way he's trying to support Severus, without being over bearing or taking charge. As for Severus, he's still the grumpy man we love to torment, and your portrayal of him is really spot on. I have to admit, there was a little lump in my throat in the last chapter. Hearing about Severus' dreams and if he could really have them was really moving. I've just read your character bio, and when I saw English wasn't your first language, my jaw dropped.honestly. I think in terms of grammar it's rather good. In terms of pacing, each chapter reveals just a little bit more about the story, it's moving along nicely. I think the quote at the beginning of each chapter is a nice touch. Look forward to reading more! Shortsnout Thank you! I'm glad you like my portrayal of Harry and the way he tries to unobstrusively improve his relationship with Severus. And of course I'm also happy that you enjoy my version of Severus... I'm also glad that you enjoy my writing and that my English istn't too horrible . Improving my English is always a good excuse for spending hours and days working on my stories so I'm glad it paid off. I'm flattered. I got the inspiration for this story from a quote so I thought it only fair to include it, and others... Enjoy the next chapter! Lumcer: This was not what I was expecting... It was so much better I am really looking foreward to reading more! Harry's job is annoying and sometime I wish I could see into his mind workings, but I love how you potray them both. I love that you've tooken on Severus' insicurities and Harry's complexities! Please write more soon!! KCK-Lumcer Lol, glad I exceeded your expectations Not getting a view into Harry's mind was part of the challenge, but I thought it turned out quite well... Thank you!
  7. In the Red - Step Thirteen SPILLWAY BLUE: Love this story. I have a feeling Harry and Severus are going to get a surprise and Harry will not be happy but when Severus and it are put in danger because of Harry"s job we will fine out what he does... Oh, you're good. There's definitely danger on the horizon (or paranoia), but you'll have to read on to find out the details... Thank you! Kate: yay, I really like this story. I look forward to a new chapter, so do not make me wait too long Thank you! I hope the next chapter will be to your liking, and not too late moodysavage: I'm really loving this story but I can't remember if I've reviewed before. I think it's very sweet how Harry and Severus have a real relationship even though they do not TALK about anything to do with their relationship and they even try to avoid THINKING about it lol. Silly men. I like how Harry trusts Severus to comfort him and yearns for that. I hope that he gets out of that job of his. I think you haven't, but there's a first time for everything and I'm glad you're enjoying it so far. Oh, yeah, there are good at avoidance. No promises about Harry's job, but maybe the next chapter will change your mind (at least a little)... Demonadine: oh this is just marvelous! I love this story lol. I do hope you have as much fun writing it as I am reading it. Thank you! And yes, I definitely enjoy working on this story and writing in general I'm just glad there are so many people out there encouraging me and telling me that they enjoy reading my stuff. It's a great feeling... Sailor Sayuri: Ch. 13 Yay! Update! *squeals**happy dance* LOVED this chapter! It was GREAT (as always *lol*)!!!! *squeals again* Tenderness, smut, Hermion and Ron, and Severus being Severus! *lol* I loved it! *grins* GREAT job well done! *winks**thumbs up* Plus, the chapter was LONG! *squeals* It made my day! *grins* Sorry to make you wait for the review since you were waiting for them! Hope you didn't lose too much sleep! *lol* And please keep the Blood Pops, you're right, you never know when you're going to need them! Good idea! *smirk* I REALLY want to know what happens next! *wails* Please update soon!? Pweety Pwease with Acid Pops on top!?!?!? *BIG puppy eyes* (I'll try every candy HP universe I can remember, be prepared to receive some weird things! *lol*) Good luck for next chapter! *winks* Kisses! ^^ Thank you! I guess you'll have to read the next chapter to find out what's going to happen next ... Eh, thanks for the Acid Pops. I'll keep them with the Blood Pops, but I'm not really sure what kind of creature might be interested in those... delia cerrano: Still don't know what Harry is doing so secretly but I think if Ron, Hermione and especially Severus knew they wouldn't like it at all. I think he is "sacrificing" himself again some how. Maybe Hermione knows a little of how much Severus & Harry mean to each other...seems a bit more empathatic or knowing. Now I'm the one waiting anxiously (for the next chapter). Probably not, but just because they wouldn't approve it doesn't mean that Harry doesn't enjoy his work. I mean, there has to be some reason why he's working for them, right? Hermione is nothing if not perceptive and she might not be quite as pig-headed as Ron or Harry... kit: So...i have been away :C I know!! it is no excuse. The bright side (for me) is that I had so many chapters to catch up on. I love how you are giving us a more in depth look about Harry. I can't lie, I'm really curious about Harry's job and the many secrets which he keeps hidden. Seems like night terrors are one of them. It is sweet how Snape takes care of him and douses harry with sleep concoctions. Well, I'm going to try and be a more avid reviewer. especially since you are such a committed write whose story deserves reviews. Can't wait to read more! Well, I hope you're all caught up now... There'll be a little about Harry's job in the next chapter, as well as a lot about Severus' work so I hope you'll enjoy it. Did you just put "sweet" and "Snape" in the same sentence? Never thought I'd see the day ... I won't argue with you on the reviews-bit because I truly love getting reviews jujukitty: ch 8- one small issue, when reading minerva's letter, you made it sound like it was right after the war with them missing dumbles and teachers and students, but it's apparently 5 years later. also, i thought you said he was giving up on teaching when he was packing up his rooms to move Eh, no, you misunderstood something. I never said it was 5 years after the war, it's just about 5 years since Harry left school (I took some liberties with canon and "my" war ended differently and most of all later than in the books). So according to my calculations it's about one year after the war, in which time there were the trials and the awarding of Orders of Merlin). Assuming that Hogwarts was closed for at least some time during the war and then needed time to be rebuilt, this year will see the reopening of Hogwarts... And no, Severus just moved out from his quarters to move in with Harry. He didn't give up his teaching position. (And in case you were wondering what Severus was still doing in Hogwarts when the school was closed, I'd say he was under house arrest until his name was cleared.) Sorry for confusing you and I hope this long reply or the confusion didn't put you off of this story... awww! i'm really enjoying this story, as others have said, a unique little twist on the format and i'm dying to know about harry's secrets right along with sev lol, though it does look like harry's starting to let a little more of himself become visible to his husband at least. keep up the great work, i'm really looking forward to more of this Thank you! Harry is definitely opening up more, as we'll see in the next chapter. Hope you'll enjoy it! Unintentionally Yours CrimsonRose94: Really good so far! On Chapt 34 (just finished the chapter) - I found it kind of funny that Luna slipped into the DADA class since she is the year below them ... I teared up on some chapters and it is nice to see some of the DEs that have some positive emotion to HP <br /> Cannot wait till I finish reading this! Thank you! Oops, yeah, I don't know what she was doing there...Hope you enjoy the rest of the story... Crepererum delia cerrano: Still working my way through your stories. I have enjoyed all of them so far and really think "In the Red" is sooo good so far. When I 1st started this one I misread your sumary. I thought it was going to be Harry/Snape not Harry/Sirius. I love Harry/Snape stories but I don't care for Sirius. He seems a spoiled mean overgrown child. Once I started I kept wondering why Sirius kept sticking his nose in so much. Surprise on slow me when I went backed and checked the summary top. While I'm still not a Sirius fan I loved your Harry so much (though an elf and wings? really?) that even Sirius was making me feel for him in his drive to keep Harry. So... I tricked you into reading a story with a pairing you don't really care for? Wow, I'm good . I'm glad you enjoyed Harry and that the story wasn't too horrible for you, though I guess it must have been a bit of a letdown when you realised the pairing... Winter and Ice Jburks: I loved it. I waited to review until the end. I stumbled upon this story on another author's profile page. They had recommended this as a dray/luc/harry story and I was intrigued. I hadn't read one of those before. (Now a story that mentioned dray/luc or Fred/George is normal for me to see, but it seems quite a few either are all for or completely against the incest. Now this though made sure that they weren't incestuous. Quite a breath of fresh air. Not that I mind the incestuous ones because honestly anyone who thinks Fred & George hadn't at least kissed because they wanted to see what kissing themselves would be like, is just a little crazy in my mind.) I feel like I've been through the emotional wringer with the two days it took me to read this. Absolutely amazing. I must say I feel like I agree with Nightmare about making sure no one hurts Harry ever again. It's just wrong! Wrong on so many levels!!! Thank you for writing and sharing this delightful story. Even though it truly wasn't always delightful in sense of the actual events, it was well written and I enjoyed the emotions that were wrung out of me. Thank you! And I'm glad you enjoyed my take on this pairing. I guess it always depends on your own level of comfort with this subject matter and of course on the set-up of the story. Personally, I wouldn't have a problem with Fred and George amusing themselves, but a full-out incestous relationship between Lucius and Draco (or any father and child) wouldn't be something I'd enjoy simply because there's such a power imbalance between them that I'd always wonder about abuse and exploitation... Again thank you for your truly delightful review
  8. In the Red - Step Twelve delia cerrano: Wow! Harry gets hurt and Severus really gets shoved in the way back...we don't need you, go away sort of. I know Harry was hurting & not totally with it but geeeze. I thought they were working things out and getting a bit closer at least.<br /> They both acted like there was no caring a-tall between them. And St Mungo's! Severus is the husband but all they saw`was a deatheater? strange man? Can't wait for the next chapter to see how they handle Harry's injuries and what the ... does Harry do for the Ministry?? To be fair, Harry did tell the healer to give his instructions to Severus so it's not like he totally ignored Severus. Plus, most of the next chapter will be Harry-Severus-centric again... Would you be very disappointed if I told you that I'm not going to answer your last question? Sailor Sayuri: YAY! Update! *squeals**happy dance* This chapter was GREAT, as always! *winks* Great job! *thumbs up* I loved the concerned Severus and seeing his interraction with the other of the Trio! It was great fun, even if Harry was injured(not sure I wrote it right... ^^'), but what else is new? *lol* I'm pretty sure now that he's working in the Department of Mysteries, I don't know another place that works with artifacts in the Ministry! *lol* I REALLY want to read the next chapter! *wails* Please update soon!? Pweety Pwease with Blood Pops on top!?!?!?!? (Don't know if you'll like these ones *lol*) *BIG puppy eyes* Good luck for next chapter! ^_~ Kisses! ^^ PS: Sorry for the Licorice Wands, I'll remember never to send some! *lol* There'll be a lot more concerned Severus in the next chapter, guest appearances by the other two thirds of the Golden Trio and injured, but stubborn Harry - hope you'll like it. I think I'll keep those Blood Pops just in case I ever meet a vampire - you never know, maybe one day they'll save my life silverstargirl: Great story! I am really enjoying it. Your characterizations are spot on! I do hope to find out what it is that Harry is doing for the Ministry soon and I am sure that Severus and the other parts of the Golden Trio really want some answers as well. I doubt he is a Hit Wizard or an Auror, so I am guessing he is doing something with the Dept. of Mysteries. I cannot wait to see Severus dealing with his patient/husband. I am sure that Harry will be nearly impossible to deal with, so let the fireworks begin. Thank you. You'll get some answers in the next few chapters, but I don't promise to answer all of them. No, to Harry being an Auror and a definite no, to him being a Hit Wizard. Let me just get my lighter and we'll start the fireworks in a minute
  9. In the Red - Step Eleven delia cerrano: Oh good a little more of their personal life. What does Harry do with all these hours and hours of work? When is Severus going to relax and show his caring for Harry. Surely by now he has to realize that Harry really does care about him, is true to him and does enjoy sex with him. What Harry does at work will be the big question in the next chapter - I'm not promising to answer it, though ... Oh, but we will see a caring Severus soon. Hope you'll enjoy that. Thank you for reviewing! qwerty: Love that last line. Great chapter! Eager to learn and read more Thank you! So did I! dark-huntressmoony: Loved the chapter, can't wait for more, Severus is slowly breaking down. Thank you! He's not the only one... Sailor Sayuri: Ch. 11 YAY! Update! *squeals**happy dance* This chapter was GREAT as always! Good job! *winks**thumbs up* I'm really getting curious about what Harry's work is and what are his secrets! It's really frustrating! >_< I REALLY want to know what happens next! *whines* Please update soon!? Pweety Pwease with a lot of Licorice Wands on top!?!?!?!? *BIG puppy eyes* Good luck for next chapter! ^_~ Kisses! ^^ PS: Keeping tea next to you for Ice Mices was a good idea! *lol* Well, you'll have to figure out yourself what Harry's job is because I'm not telling. But Severus will find out one of his secrets in the next two chapters so I hope that's something... Ugh, licorice. Not a fan to be honest, but I appreciate the thought... Thanks for your review. Nicole: Can't wait to read more!! I'm loving this idly confident Harry ! Thank you! I'm really enjoying writing him as well kawaiigirl: So many questions! So little time! Lol luckily for me my bouts of amusement last chapter did not frighten anyone but these mysterious are killing me ! Your story is turning into quite the mysterious thriller and I'm enjoying every single word and devoring it like dessert! Anxiously Awaiting the Next Chapter, Aña. Thank you! I hope you'll survive a few more mysteries because the next chapter isn't really rife with answers. But we'll get around to answering at least some questions, eventually. Hope you'll enjoy the next chapter! Unintenionally Yours dantae: This was my first ever HP/LV and I have to say it was probably the best fic I have ever read! I also really grew to enjoy the language differences. There were some things that just didn't translate perfectly but they gave the story character. This was perfect. Now I'm off to find something else to get my fix!! Thank you! I'm not sure I deserve that honour, but thank you nonetheless! And thank you for finding my mistakes interesting rather than annoying Good luck for your fic search!
  10. In the Red - Step Ten dark-huntressmoony: Not gonna lie I'm waiting for a Possessive/Jealous thing to come from Severus because of Draco. And maybe a demand for answers and what not. At least it seems like Severus is starting to lose some of that snarky assholishness that he had for Harry Well, I can give you one of the two, though I'm not sure it's quite what you had in mind. But I still hope you'll like the next chapter... qwerty: I was surprised at the appearance of Draco and Lucius in this chapter. Did Draco know of Lucius' plans for Harry before they were thwarted? Interested in finding out more about Draco and Harry's non-friendship, so-to-speak. Great chapter! Yay, I'm glad I could surprise you. Draco might have known something, but Lucius is still his father so I think family loyalty might have been stronger than his "non-friendship", as you so nicely put it, with Harry. Oh, but Draco will make another appearance in the future, so I hope that will be to your liking. Thanks for reviewing! delia cerrano: Loved all the action, people, dancing, banter...the whole party scene. Uh oh! Lucius dropped a little bomb didn't he. Severus is so tender on the subject of Harry that he will probably start withdrawing even more or putting all sorts of bad motives onto Harry. I wish Harry would be more open in his feelings with Severus and maybe his plans or at least be more "us against them" in his attitude. Still one of the best Harry/Snape out there. Thank you! Severus definitely has been rattled by Lucius last words, which might prompt him to find out some of Harry's secrets. Let's see how that goes... I'm flattered that you think so! Bickymonster: I was pleasantly surprised by the interaction between Harry and Draco, one of the reasons I usually like good quality Drarry is the banter, more than anything else. You managed to put that in here perfectly as part of a (tentative?) friendship. I really like how Snape is starting to be a bit possessive about Harry, it is endearing. Overall this chapter was fun to read and made me smile. I'm a fan of banter myself so I'm glad you enjoyed their interaction . And I'm happy that you liked Severus gradual warming-up to Harry. Thanks for your review! Ch3rry: Yes finally some Malfoy senior interacting, I was sad that you skipped the part where he found out Harry married Sev. Mmm well this was unexpected I was not expecting Draco and Harry to be friendly. Aww all the open affection between harry and sev was so cute. That's the problem with this limited perspective: Severus just wasn't there when Lucius and Harry had their meeting... Thank you kawaiigirl: Great chappie! I love how fast your updates are and you won't believe how loud I busted out laughing after Harry told Lucius about the raid. I can't wait to find out some of Harry's secrets! Anxiously awaiting the next amazing chapter, Aña Lol, I hope you didn't scare anyone with your sudden amusement. Oh, secrets, quite a lot of those swirling around. I think Severus might be ready to ask some questions soon... Thank you! JC Black: Why do I have a feeling that Severs is going to get very angry with Harry about all his secret and leave him for a time. Great story keep up the good work.... Oh, I think you might be underestimating Severus There'll be no slamming doors, but finding the courage of entering through doors that are already open, or at least knocking... (After you read the next chapter: Did that make any sense? I think I might have gone a bit overboard with the metaphor. Sorry.) Sailor Sayuri: YAY! Update! *squeals**happy dance* This chapter was GREAT! As always! Still LOVE how you write this story, it seems so realistic! It's like the real epilogue of DH, because I could really see the character's evolution to be like this in their future! Great job! *winks**thumbs up* And yes, I loved seeing all those characters! Especially Draco. I always had a soft spot for Draco! (I'm a big fans of Drarry and Snarry...bigger fans of Snarry though! *lol*) I don't know if you'll continue the story with Harry and him being on friendly terms, friends or past lovers, but it would be great if it was one of the last two! *grins* Severus might be jealous if he discovered the last one though! *smirks* I REALLY want to know what happens next! *wails* Please update soon!? Pweety Pwease with a LOT of Ice Mices on top!?!?!?!? *BIG puppy eyes* Good luck for next chapter! ^_~ Kisses! ^^ Thank you! I'm glad you think the story realistic. That's always the problem for fanfiction writers, I think, because most of the time the changes we make in regards to characterizations make perfect sense to us, but they might not make any sense to anyone else. So I'm happy that you like it. Harry and Draco are not past lovers, but their friendship might be stronger than they would ever admit. I think they both decided to start fresh and found that they are not so incompatible after all... Ice Mice, always wondered about those, but I think I'd better make myself a cup of tea in case my mouth freezes shut... Thanks as always for your review! Sera21: love this story!! I honestly thought no more quality HP fanfics were being written. You proved me wrong Thank you! That's too kind of you and I hope you'll enjoy the next chapter.
  11. In the Red - Step Nine Sapphire Phoenix: No, that wasn't the best place to stop! What is it with authors on this site giving cliffy chapter endings? It's enough to make me want to growl at my screen-and I'm tech support, so I know how futile that is! I am enjoying your story, so please continue. Would it make it better if I told you that I have no intention of continuing where I left off?... I thought so. Well, sorry. But I'm glad you're enjoying the story. mnfm: No it was not, you evil one! But I loved the chapter anyway. I'll be waiting for the next one. mnfm Glad I didn't totally ruin it with that ending delia cerrano: That surely wasn't the best place to stop!! More please. They seem to be living separate lives with neither really trying to change that. They might as well be hiring a call boy for all the caring about each other there is. They have meals together most of the time with biting mean comments on Severus side and off handed, generic, "pretend to be interested but I won't make time for you" comments from Harry. Hopefully something will change between them, for the good, soon. But that whole chapter was basically porn - didn't you have enough already? You know, I really like that idea with the call boy, but alas, they signed a fidelity clause so I don't think I can make that work... Oh, don't worry, there'll be some changes soon, but somehow I don't think there'll be less sex... themysticaldragon: *growls and throws a pillow at the author* No.. not a good place to end the chapter at all! I have been following the story and I have been enjoying it. I think that poor Severus is afraid to admit he's madly in love!! Boy, was I glad that was only a pillow. I'm not good at ducking, you know? Thanks for reading and I'm thrilled that your such a hopeless romantic kawaiigirl: Why did you leave off there? It was finally getting smexy! I have a feeling that Severus is going to make things difficult with this relationship lol hmm I wonder. <br /> Waiting impatiently until the next chappy, <br /> Aña Because I didn't feel like writing another lemon? Sorry. Oh, you think Severus is the problem? We'll see about that... Ch3rry: No it was not the best place to stop, lol that was just cruel!!! Maybe a little. But that's what your imagination is for Demonadine: evil very evil lol I am loving this one, so thank you so much for writing and sharing it! Oh, wow, you're loving the story even though I'm evil. Lucky me! Sailor Sayuri: Ch.9 YAY! Update! *squeals**happy dance* This chapter was GREAT! As always! *grins* I know I'm repeating this at each review, but what else can you say when it's allready perfect? Sadly (since I'm french), my english is not good enough to comment on this great work of art! Except that this chapter was VERY hot and well written! Good job! *winks**thumbs up* I REALLY want to know what happens next! *wails* Please update soon!? Pweety Pwease with a lot of Pumkin Pasties on top!?!?!?!? *BIG puppy eyes* Good luck for next chapter! Kisses! ^^ Thank you! Don't worry about your English. I'm not a native speaker, either, and I think we're both doing fine Yum, Pumpkin Pasties, always wanted to try those... addiena_saffir: no it wasn't and as long as you don't do it again we can just forget about it this once. Glad you're willing to forgive and forget Thanks for reviewing!
  12. In the Red - Step Eight LeaniaSTL: Woah, Severus is determined to see only the bad in Harry; it's almost becoming an obsession. Seriously I would've been impressed, and even taking Severus' refusal to pay him any appreciation, he could've mentally been impressed. This is a really hard-ass Severus, and it's an eye opener; also different then what most make him and it twists my brain. I'm enjoying it, and I wonder if this hard-ass Severus is difficult for you to write and/or stick to? Also, what does Harry do? Is he an Unspeakable? What else is there that would be so secretive? With the way he handles his magic, I would almost think something that handles the study of magic, how it flows and ties together to form spells, and it's various complexities. Keep up the good work, I look forward to more! Leania Well, the Severus in the book isn't exactly a fan of Harry's either, is he? It takes a lot of anger and resentment to treat an eleven-year-old like he did in the books. But yes, he is kind of difficult to write - not that I don't enjoy it - but there're a few scenes I've written that I took out of the final draft because I didn't like what Severus (or Harry) had become in them. As for Harry's job: What else indeed? I'm not going to tell you what is job is, but I think I dropped a lot of hints so I'm confident you'll figure it out (or maybe you already did?). Thank you! qwerty: Great story so far. I love your writing. I would say that Harry is an Unspeakable but in the books, people were allowed to say they were an Unspeakable - just not what they were working on. But maybe your version of the Dept is more strict? Or maybe Harry is working for some entirely new Dept... intriguing! Looking forward to your new chapters! Thank you. Who says that Harry isn't allowed to say what his job is? Maybe he just doesn't need to say it because everyone already knows where he works, just not what exactly he does there....Hope you'll like the next chapter... delia cerrano: Super long chapter? It went so fast I didn't notice. Still loving it. Severus is just sooo up tight that Harry couldn't care for him now or ever! I sure hope Harry doesn't really care for his ex Oliver. I want him to love Severus and just have had a fling with Oliver because he didn't think Severus would be interested. I sound desperate don't I? I just love Severus & Harry so much! I'll take that as a compliment, I guess. Thank you... Maybe a little desperate. I don't really see Harry as a guy who has flings nor as someone who would settle for someone he doesn't really love... Timeangel93: Well you DID bring me into a review-y mode! *snickers* First, I have 7 Words that have gone through my mind the entire time: WTF happened with Harry!? I mean I get that Harry was always a little bit Slytherin, but this rapid change between calm and emotional? (Ergh, me and my grammar) Second, I really like your story! Third, suspect Harry is at least in love with Severus. Call it sixth sense. And after this chapter, I can't shake the feeling that Wood might something have to to with Harry's odd beheaviour (but maybe I'm just too paranoid xD ). Fourth, can't help but feel a little vary about Harry's reasons for the marriage. Could be anything, really, not just the little bit he offered to Sev. Fifth, never thought Snape could be a Drama Queen! (Even if I can't blame him for that) And last nut not least, enough of my ramblings. I'll review again next chapter! Well, the simple answer to that question is that Harry lived through the war, killed Voldemort, got a job and learned to play nice with the press all before most of his school mates figured out what to do with their lives. And for the complicated answer you'll have to read on Thank you. Who am I to argue with your sixth sense? Yes, maybe you are a tad to paranoid and Oliver Wood is just a guy who likes to play Quidditch... True, Harry might have ulterior motives, but then again, according to your sixth sense he's in love with Severus... Aw, we all have our drama queen moments, don't we? I'm looking forward to your next review and thank you for this one... dark-huntressmoony: Great chapter, waiting eagerly for the next one, and a break in the tension. I swear one of these two guys are going to crack and my money is on Severus Thank you! I'd offer to hold that bet, but I would have an unfair advantage... Sailor Sayuri: YAY! Update! *squeals**happy dance* This chapter was GREAT! Plus it was very long! I LOVED it! *grins* I think you did a great job as always! Still in love with this story and great wrighting style! Good job! *winks**thumbs up* Poor Harry and Severus! For different reasons, but poor them! Severus is too stubborn to SEE Harry! He's learning, but how much time will it take? Plus poor Harry who is misunderstood by Severus. He's not in love with our favorite Potion Master yet, but Severus expect the worst from him and I think that other than having cooled his temper and thinking more like a Slytherin (strategy wise), Harry hasn't changed from his school days (except for being confident)! Still a great guy and generous, always thinking of everyone else! I wonder when Teddy Lupin will make an apparition since he's Harr's Godson? I REALLY want to know what happens next! *wails* Please update soon!? Pweety Pwease with Berty Bott's Every Flavour Beans on top!?!?!?!? *BIG puppy eyes* *lol* Good luck for next chapter! ^_~ Kisses! ^^ Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm happy that you see Harry this way because that is what I was going for. I didn't want him to be perceived as emotionless or abusive or somehow creepy, but this whole thing is tinted by Severus' view on Harry and Severus isn't exactly unbiased when it comes to Potters. So, thank you for that. This story mostly disregards the later books so no Teddy Lupin, I'm afraid. Oh, wow, Every Flavour Beans - hope I don't get something nasty like troll bogey or baked beans... BlackDragon:I just wanted to let you know that I love your stories, and love you because of them and because you alway complete them unlike so many others. Keep writing I will definitely keep reading You rock! Thank you. I know how much I hate reading a story and then finding that it hasn't been updated in years so I never wanted someone to feel that way about any of my stories. Pretty selfish, if you think about it Glad to hear that! BAFan: Ch. 8 I have to agree with the reviewer who called Snape a drama queen, lol, although that vision he had of exacting revenge on Harry was disturbing, to say the least. Will he ever stop searching for opportunities (mostly mistaken) to belittle Harry? Poor Harry, trying so hard to be considerate of Snape's wishes and desires, not realizing that he only fuels the man's paranoia by doing so. I can't help but wonder what Lucius will do next; I don't see him just meekly giving up on his plan. I've noticed one consistent error in your writing: confusing "loath" (reluctant) and "loathe" (detest). Just fyi. Can't wait for the next chapter. You know, I actually wrote a scene where Severus did much more than just thinking about it, but then I took it out because I don't see him that way. I think deep down Severus still hasn't got over what James Potter did to him in school and Harry is a convenient target for his anger and maybe he feels that if he could humiliate Harry like he was humiliated it would not only level the playing field but also help him get closure... Oh, no, Lucius still has some plans up his sleeve... Thanks for pointing out that error. I honestly didn't know those were different words - I'll make sure to double-check in future chapters... Slynx: Just started reading your story and very much enjoying it! I love your experiment with having only one point of view. Not getting Harry's perspective is both excitingly frustrating and refreshing. It keeps me guessing and I really love that in a story. <br /> Can't wait for the next chapter! Thank you! I'm glad you're kind of enjoying the limited perspective. I guess it would clear some things up to have some insights into Harry's motivations, but I do enjoy keeping you guessing kawaiigirl: Grrr im so angry at Harry right now I feel this simmering rage I have really gotten into Severus mind during this chapter I can't help but feel...I can't even really put into words how I feel about this calm rational Harry but if I'm honest with myself and everyone else he just pisses me off. On a brighter note I love this story and I'm enjoying it so much I love characters that I can really get into and extract a reaction from me. Keep up the great work and I can't wait for the next update. Also, I apologize for all my run on sentences and bad spelling. Sincerly, Aña I had really mixed responses to Harry's character - some seem to think that he's deliberately goading Severus on while others assume that he's doing everything he can to be nice to Severus. It's interesting to read your reactions, but I still hope that he'll start pissing you off less in the coming chapters... Thank you and don't worry about long sentences or spelling mistakes - I didn't notice anything wrong with your English...
  13. In the Red - Step Seven dark-huntressmoony: i still love it, but my heart aches for Severus, i really hope he just cracks and breaks down soon. It's kinda painful to watch him dance around Harry. Well, the next chapter includes a minor breakdown, but all in all, I don't think Severus is one to do that. Thank you! Ch3rry: Wow great fic. Sev is being so irrational about somethings but can't say I blame him. Harry needs to stop making assumptions about what snape does and doesn't want, my heart broke a lil when sev felt like harry doesn't want his with someone like him Can't wait to see how press Malfoy Senior is when he finds out his plans got ruined. Thank you! I think Harry will notice in the next chapter that he needs to include Severus more if he wants their marriage to work... See you there Sailor Sayuri: YAY! Update! *squeals**happy dance* LOVE this chapter! It was great! Good job! *winks**thumbs up* Insecure Severus is so cute! And I love powerful Harry that does things that known as impossible to withches and wizards! *lol**grins* REALLY want to know what happens next! *wails* Please update soon!? Pweety Pwease with a LOT of Chocolate Frogs on top!?!?!?!? *Dobby starry eyes* Good luck for next chapter! ^_~ Kisses! ^^ Lol! Don't overdo it with those Chocolate Frogs - I might eat too many, get sick and be laid up in bed with no access to my laptop for weeks! Thank you! VincentMeoblinn: Fantastic!! Thank you! I'm glad you liked it! delia cerrano: Boy, Severus is really feeling impotent & used and doesn't know what to do. I hope Harry, who I think knows a little of how Severus feels, keeps working at the marriage and doesn't give up in frustration. I wish Harry hadn't made Severus think he didn't trust him with that comment about his study being private. I agree with Sev. The honeymoon or getting to know each other is over already? Still crazy about this story so if you need me to wash your dishes so you can work on the story, just let me know. Wow, no-one ever offered to do my dishes for me! I was grinning from ear to ear after I read your review. My personal dishwasher Thank you... Maybe Harry needs to try a different approach, if he wants different result...
  14. Unintentionally Yours delia cerrano: Read the story over two days...enjoyed it sooo much. Showed different facets of the characters than usual. Thought people didn't realize how good & loving Tom was to be so understanding of lack of sex, not telling Tom much then blaming him for mistakes, and leaving Tom alone while Harry slept with/cuddled with everyone & his brother of his "friends" like poor Tom didn't need someone or wasn't as important. Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the story and I agree that Tom was seriously underappreciated in this story. I think he really did quite a lot for Harry and was very understanding without demanding anything in return, but then again he made some pretty severe mistakes and those tend to stick out more than his good qualities... Frances: I always think that stories that take me through the whole range of emotions and make me feel things on behalf of characters and rant at my computer screen are the best stories, and they are rare, despite how many stories I have read. Despite the rarity of such stories, I can easily say you've crafted one. While I hate that Harry has to be abused in these stories, I absolutely LOVED reading this, and I'm set to read your others because I think they'll be just as brilliant. You should be really proud of yourself for grafting such an amazing story. Thankyou, from the bottom of my heart, THANKYOU. Thank you! I'm glad my story spoke to you on an emotional level and thanks for all the flattery... I hope you'll enjoy my other stories as well... Four Words delia cerrano: Oh my I am glad I knew it was going to have a happy ending. I would have been sobbing otherwise. I love your writing and the way you see the characters. Your writing is fresh. I liked that Harry was a book illustrator rather than the usual auror. Currently reading your other works while waiting with bated breath for another chapter of "In the Red". Thank you! I'm really flattered that you chose to read my other stories as well and that you liked this one. I think I said so already in the Author's Note, but I really don't like stories without happy endings...
  15. In the Red - Step Six Sailor Sayuri: LOVE this chapter! *squeals**happy dance* I'm SO happy you updated! Plus, it was a VERY hot and well written chapter! *smirks* I love Snarry smut! And especially dominant Severus (I don't like sexual dominant Harry, I don't think it's in his character with another male! *lol*)!!! Like I said, the only thing I can say about this chapter is: very hot! *grins* I REALLY want to know what happens next! *wails* Please update soon!? Pweety Pwease with a LOT of Chocolate Frogs on top!?!?!?!? *Dobby starry eyes* Good luck for next chapter! ^_~ Kisses! ^^ Once again, thank you for reviewing twice on one chapter. That's really flattering! I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter, and the smut... And I absolutely cannot resist Chocolate Frogs - at the rate your throwing them at me, I'll have a full card collection soon Bickymonster: This story is very interesting, I am not normally a big fan of the forced marriage stories but I think you have done a truly wonderful job of this one and I am looking forward to reading more. I really like what you have done with the characters, you have managed to keep them true to themselves while allowing just enough development from where they were at at the end of the canon. I am curious to see what you plan to do with this plot because you have managed to give us enough to draw us in and help us understand exactly what is going on, but at the same time have provided a few little hints of mysteries and the future plot to leave us wanting more. Your writing style flows well and is easy to read, the story has a good pace; you really are quite talented. Congratulations of a great start to a story. Hello again! Thank you for reading this story, even though forced marriage-stories are not usually your cup of tea. I'm glad you like my characterisations of Harry and Severus and I hope you'll enjoy the rest of the story and whatever plot I'll come up with... Thank you, I'm flattered! delia cerrano: That's as good a beginning for a political marriage as you could ask for I guess. I think each cares more for the other than they feel they can show for fear of rejection or being put down. I hope Harry will be able to show how being married to him will be a far better life for Severus than Sev had and that Harry will be the one to show him what it feels like to be loved. Severus is lucky...gorgeous Harry and promise of complete commitment to him only. Harry is really trying to make the best of the situation and Severus might realise in time that marrying Harry really isn't the worst possible outcome for his future... But we'll see Thanks for reviewing! mnfm: Good, good, good! Please come back soon and update. (I can't wait for Malfoy's scene) Thank you. Lucius Malfoy will make an appearance eventually, but right now the focus is more on Severus and Harry. I hope you won't mind too much... dark-huntressmoony: Interesting to say the least....looking forward to seeing where this is going Thank you! I hope you'll like the next chapter as well LeaniaSTL: Oh interesting indeed; perhaps it won't take long for Severus to realize Harry isn't like he always thought him to be? So Sev's really missing control, hmm, and Harry doesn't mind letting the control go to Severus (as far as sex goes). Keep up the good work, I look forward to your next chapter when you return. Hope you have a pleasant time away. Leania Severus can be remarkably slow on the uptake for someone of his intellect, I'm afraid ....Thank you! Enjoy the next chapter! Nicole: Please, I hope you continue! I'm finding this story a unique and fascinating take on a kind of forced marriage. I can't wait to read more! Thank you! I'm glad you're finding the story interesting...
