Whatever rating you choose is fine with me, but you can always do a lot of implication.
Author's Response: Thank you! Yes, I am fond of implication, particularly subtle implication, and do it quite often as it is (see shower scene in current chapter). I don\'t have definite plans, but I just want to keep my options open, and wanted to get feedback from the readers as to if there was a strong preference either way. * * * Thanks, again!
You really capture the moment by moment plot of the story -- very realistic.
Author's Response: Thank you. That\'s one of my prime goals when writing: put the reader in the proverbial shoes of the character whose POV we\'re taking. If you can \"feel\" their position and reactions, then I\'m happy! ;-) ** Thanks, again!
Looking forward to your next post!
Author's Response: Thanks!
This chapter is written so beautifully.
Author's Response: Why, thank you. ;-)
I love her interaction with Atilla!
Author's Response: lol... Yes, well, keep an eye on Atilla. You\'ve not seen/heard the last of him yet. ** And don\'t you know she simply *abhored* dealing with him, particularly like that.
I have really enjoyed this story quite a bit.
Author's Response: Thank you! I\'m glad you enjoyed it. And thank you for sticking with it to the very long awaited ending. Your thoughts and opinions have been most lovely to read. Cheers :-)
I love the ending of this chapter. I also like how you characterized Regulus here -- highlighting his differences with Sirus -- and how Hermione is truly discovering his attributes. I really am enjoying this triangle.
Author's Response: Thank you! Yes, I love Regulus, too, but for different reasons than I love Sirius, so that tends to come naturally for me to show their differences, and that those things that separate the men are also still good things. I\'ve had a lot of people upset because it was Regulus and not Sirius, but sometimes it takes it being the wrong person to make one realize the \'right\' person. Hermione knowing the great things about Regulus and still feeling something missing tells her what she needs, what she truly wants. Thanks, again!
I liked the reference to Stubby, and I like the ending of this chapter. I want to read more.
Author's Response: Thank you! It\'s great to hear from readers, and particularly to learn what they do/don\'t like. The Stubby reference is quite important to the story.
I\'ve actually written the story up to Chapter 10 (I\'m currently battling through Chapter 11 right now). If you are in a rush to read further, e-mail me and I\'ll get you onto the other chapters.
If you\'re not in a hurry, I\'ll be putting Chapter 3 in queue tonight, but it\'s been taking about 1-2 weeks to get them through.
Thanks, again!
Cheers!

I love this one too. I would like to see this develop beyond a one shot
I could see the 7th book taking off in this fashion. I feel for Draco.
Wow! I loved how you captured Snape's sardonic wit while allowing him a semblance of sensitivity.
Harry and Ginny and the Weasleys believe this.
This is why they send their poor Hermione to her granny’s cottage in Ireland on February twenty-ninth, Leap Year, hoping she could also leap back to life and perhaps to love once more, five years after losing Ron in the war.Hermione doesn't know it, but her parents and the Weasleys plus Harry are not content seeing her slaving away with paperwork and living by routine with a dead look in her eyes.
In Ireland, amidst the hills and the romantic whispering of the mountain breeze and the sea, in the handsome seaside village of Ardmore, someone is waiting for her.…someone waiting for something to complete his own return to life.
Someone named Andrei MacElroy...or so he claims.This had been entered into the New Year Challenge At the Sign of the Green Dragon and won 2nd Place (insert very undignified *squee* here).
Rave reviews. Not your usual Dramione fic. The sequel is up. ~Then Somebody Bends~
Wow! I'm very intrigued. Can't wait to read more. I like the connection and I wonder about the wizard she met earlier...
Author's Response: thank you, jennifer! stay tuned! :)
I cannot wait to see the plot unfold. I am curious about Draco's relationship with Harry and why he is "Andrei" to Hermione.
Author's Response: now, jennifer, im sorry i\'ve neglected your review for so long! please reread the story if you like, so that you can see the answer to your question! thanks a lot! ^_^
Another great chapter! I love how you show his feeling growing for her, and I am curious about the back story with Draco avenging Ron's murder. Harry and Ginny were humorous too.
Author's Response: another great thanks, jen! the back story? i\'ll give it to you. ^_^
I am falling in love wth this story!
Author's Response: awww, jen. ^_^
Yea!!!!!!
Tell me more, tell me more...
I just discovered this story and I love it!
I'm glad it's not over yet.
I am so hoping that the future has been altered just a bit.
I love the forbidden forest scene. I'm glad the "bird's" name wasn't "Buckbeak." That would have been too much!
