Old enough. I'm a writer by heart, using the wonderful HP universe (specifically Severus Snape and Hermione Granger) as a canvas for my imagination as I learn the craft and strive to be published one day. In real life, I am a professional with a doctorate in my chosen field.

Thank you for the update! Loving this story, even if it is a while for an update. Totally worth it! 
Now, which redhead has been lurking?

I know that it has been some time since you updated, but I really hope that you return to this story at some point. This is not only a beautifully written story, but an incredibly unique one as well. You've done a tremendous job. Thank you for sharing it with us and I hope to read more someday.

Looking forward to finding out more about Molly and Ron, and why they have done as they have done.

Wow, that was unexpected. I don't know much about changelings so this will not only be fun but educational!

Thanks for the update.

Changelings and Empaths?  OMG!  This can have far reaching consequences for Hermione, Severus, and Rose, can't it?  Could this mean that baby Rose could be like Molly and Ron?  Quite a twist here, and I can't wait to find out what happens.  Well done!

mmm ... interesting.  Change into what I wonder.  A Weasel?

Are any of the other Weasley offspring affected by this bloodline?

As always trilled to see an update, my love for this story still stands strong:-))

MuseAmusant

Okay, that was definitely a most unexpected little twist. I'm curious to learn what Molly and Ron's status as changelings (and empaths) has to do with their twisted proclivities.

What Ron did to that poor child-mother was beyond the pale and I don't blame Severus a bit for subsequently praying to the porcelain god.

In a similar situation, I would be doing the exact same thing.

Ah the truth is at hand.  Hermione & Severus are so good for each other in this story they balance each other.  Love this chapter.

Response from Bardsdaughter (Author of An Orphan For Christmas)

Glad you are enjoying the story. Thanks for reading.

I'm enjoying this story tremendously, evil cliffies and all. I love your use of foreshadowing and flashbacks. Keep writing, please! And soon!

Response from Bardsdaughter (Author of An Orphan For Christmas)

I'm glad you are enjoying the story! Thanks for reading!

MuseAmusant

Ohhhhh, that was definitely an evil cliffie!!!At any rate, it rather sounds like there are some skeletons about to come tumbling out of the Weasley-Prewett family closet. If it was only Ron himself, I would think that his encounter with the brains in the Ministry or the Horcrux he took turns wearing or both might be responsible for his state. But now I'm wondering if Molly did something to her youngest son that resulted in him turning out the way he did. And if so, what about her other children and Arthur? Curiouser and curiouser.

Response from Bardsdaughter (Author of An Orphan For Christmas)

Thanks for reading!

I am a patient person, I can wait, I can wait, I can wait .

And I am so glad you are. Thanks for reading!

Arrgghhh!  Another evil cliffie.  I want to know what happened... I feel sure that somewhere in those memories there is a Molly Weasley plotting.  And just how much was Arthur involved?  A lot or a little?

"It’s my chance to offer redemption instead of seek it.”  This is a powerful reason for someone who has lived through what Severus has lived through to welcome the particular challenges his new job entails... but there's no denying that it's still a hard job.

Thanks for another great chapter.

Response from Bardsdaughter (Author of An Orphan For Christmas)

Robert Malcolm and Isobel Ross McGonagall...  Thank God for them and their love for their son, Severus, and his bride, Hermione, and their child, Rose.

I am so very glad that this strong family will be standing with them while little Rose is christened.  She may need a good  strong family to defend her if worse comes to worst.

I love this story!!!

OMG!  I had no inkling that being a Changling also meant that Ron could turn into a Dementor.  This gets scarier by the chapter.  And both Ron and Molly will be at the receptioin after Rose's christening?  Dear God.Great chapter, btw.Beth

Glad you are enjoying it! Thanks for reading.

I was so afraid that this story had been abandoned -- and it hasn't been! You've updated! YAY! I lurve this story! Thanks for writing!

Response from Bardsdaughter (Author of An Orphan For Christmas)

Never abandoned, I promise. Glad you are enjoying it! Thanks for reading!

Another piece of the puzzle, it's building into quite a picture.

Glad you are enjoying it! Thanks for reading.

Dumdledore was wrong again, Ron is now a danger to all that come in contact with him. Hopefully Severus and Hermione can keep little Rose safe from the past.

Response from Bardsdaughter (Author of An Orphan For Christmas)

Yes, he was. He always was a little too "my way or no way" when it came to decisions he made. Thanks for reading!

Sampdoria

Thank you so much for another great update. I am quite sure that I love your version of the McFonagall family, especially Isobel:-))

Response from Bardsdaughter (Author of An Orphan For Christmas)

She is spunky, isn't she? Thanks for reading.

Now little Rose has a chance of a good lfe.

I like the added explanations about changelings and dementors and how Aurthur has managed to stay with Molly.

Response from Bardsdaughter (Author of An Orphan For Christmas)

Thanks! I hope you continue to enjoy the story.

Oh my goodness this is good and I did't realize it wasn't finished. Now I must wait. Excellent story but if this is a pattern with Ron why isn't he in restraints or Azkaban. 

Response from Bardsdaughter (Author of An Orphan For Christmas)

I'm glad you are enjoying this. Thanks for reading!
