Oh NOOOe!!  Hopefully, looking into Erised will get Severus' head straight once and for all.  Like everyone else, I think that Krum prolly Crucio'd Hermione.  Please update soon!!

Uhoh, I think the Unforgivable was cast on Hermione by Viktor.  I knew there had to be a reason he was staying so close to Hermione. I wonder if Voldemort sent him there. If Severus was that concerned about Hermione, he should've went to her. But I can't wait until the next chapter to find out what is happening.

Ohhhh, you NAUGHTY THING, you. I won't pass out, I won't! :breathes heavily:

Poor Severus, he longs for her and he won't let himself have her - when he ought by rights to know how she cares for him.  

I won't beg for the next chapter - I don't beg Mia, I won't beg you - nope, nope. 

:clears throat nervously: 

This is an awful way to leave a reader! But very well done. I've followed this story for a long time and am enjoying it immensely.

Goodness! I have a feeling that Viktor was the one to cast an Unforgivable Curse at Hermione, but I could be wrong. If that is true, then he probably won't be staying at Hogwarts for much longer.I wonder exactly what Severus had seen in the mirror last time. Were Lily and Severus having sex in many devious positions? I guess that could definitely be his heart's desire.I hope that Severus finds Hermione before anything too horrible happens to her. I am definitely on tenterhooks.

I can't believe this cliffie!  .  I am glad that this story's going again, though...

Fantastic! I was so caught up in Severus' emotional upheaval, I felt sick myself. Wonderful job! But, but... you leave us like this???? An Unforgivable??? Get thee back to your keyboard!!

'Tis magnificent and terribly sad.  He does the exact opposite of what Dumbledore told him to do, not ten hours earlier.  *shakes head* 

I don't like that Unforgiveavle Curse *shakes head*

Elegant and poignant. What an indulgent treat to spend a whole chapter navigating with Snape through his mine-laden emotional terrain! Delicious and frustrating all at the same time!! Let's hope a look in the Mirror of Erised will finally knock our Potions Master out of his trough of self denial! Also, shouldn't Hermione be convulsing with need by now?  And what could be happening all those floors above the Dungeons? Oh cruel and wondrous Authoress, you sure know how to deliver a cliffie!!!!!!!!THANK YOU!!!!! More, please.

NOOOO!!!!! You can't leave me like that!!! That's cruel! Please update soon!!!!!

Oh that last line..that os one hell of an EVIL cliffy.I don't see Krum casting an unforagivable.  Such a mystery with that last line.Severus is so off the deep end in jealousy- I love it.Yet HG is so miserable and this last encounter has probably left her utterly hopeless.

*GASP*

I.  Can't.  Breathe.

Eep!  I must know what happens next.Update soon, please!

Argh g#dd@mn it!!! I want the next chapter in queue ASAP! You are a cruel woman!

Okay, I'm calm. When I saw the chapter heading, I though, Oh, gawd - this  can't be good! And I knew who the "regresee" would be. And you sure don't disappoint! This is classic Snape at his best! insecure, unstable, jealous, and full of rage. Brilliant chapter, just what was needed I hope after all this has been resolved, our couple can finally settle into happiness. But that is just me - an incurable romantic!

Livvy 

aaargh, more!   God, you do know how to keep your audience interested. Im on the edge of my seat here. Can't wait for the next chappie

Oh, that is truly a cruel place to leave your readers hanging. Compositionally it's brilliant, but still... 

What a chapter, it was so intence! On one side I am so mad at Severus for being so ignorant and hellbendt on hurting the both of them, on the other side I feel so sorry for him for having been so hurt by Lily that it destroyed him emotionally for so many years. And the mention of the unforgivable curse, that was an evil cliffhanger. Surely you cant have Hermione killing herself by an AK? Did Victor use an imperio on her to lure her to his bed? But why would he do that when he claims to love her? Was it an Crucio? Did Hermione use it to make one pain take another pain away? Update soon, I really, really have to have some answears! Many tanks to sshg316, I sincerely hope that she still have your PSP so you can consentrate on writing:-)) Update soooooon!

Argh!  I thought I was frustrated waiting for this chapter!  Please oh please hurry soon with the next one.  We need to chain you to your computer until the story is complete.  This is too good to have to wait weeks.

This has everything: P with P, angst, romance, cliffhangers; even the naval slang.  Though it is also in everyday use (in this household, for the advent of six o'clock, when it mysteriously becomes morally acceptable to drink gin and tonic!).

This story has had its share of terrific/evil cliffies but this one may be the worst/best yet. It's so awful/brilliant. An Unforgivable? Where, by whom, to whom?? You really drive me insane/have me applauding. Whatever. Happy writing.

nooooooooooo!!!... tomorrow I leave town for a month(with no internet :S)!!!!... I'm dying to know what happends!!!...great chapter =)!!

No no no!! It can't stop there! Ah well. I will be eagerly awaiting the next.

yes... it is slightly cruel to leave us this way... :)Honeslty I don't really know what to say. I am axiously waiting to find out exactly what's going on with Hermione's absence, the unforgivable, what Sev will see in the mirror... wondering if he'll see Hermione, if Viktor cast Imperious on the head girl, if Hermione will be found in time.... Fantastic writing as always!
