So i didn't realize you had updated this story and so I just spent the last half hour or so rereading this story. I think it is very good. it was slightly slow at first but i think it works for the story. A gradual build up and then the reward. I didn't know you had so many stories up and cannot wait to read them all when I get the chance. I feel like you could make this fic NC17. I thought your smut was well written. I mean a bit an the tamer side compared (sp?) to other smut stories yet still very sweet. Hopefully you update soon. Keep up the good work ! I thought the whole "bill speaks for all of us" was very touching. It reminds me of my family though not as big. Hopefully you'll touch upon why Bill refuses to really cry or talk about the death. I think that was a very tragic but well played "killing". Hopefully no one else dies but you never know!

hey great fanfic i hope you keep it up and i love your story so far so please dont abdon it

Love how you're writing Hermione, Harry and Ron - but in particular you are writing a Hermione right now that I can really like, and that is somewhat rare. Writers have a tendency to make her too smug and you've really overcome that, in my opinion. I love how she's working with Harry and Ron like a team. I love how you had Harry be the one to go talk to Ron. I do expect you'll have some fallout from Ginny coming up before too long, but that's cool. And I love the ending bit (with the R rated part on your web page) - well done, I can't wait to read more.

I love the story and I loved the smut. It was really amazing. You've got a deft touch, both with character development and character *ahem*...interaction.

SO - please don't stop writing this!! It's got me hooked and that is something I really appreciate.

What a wonderful chapter! I feel so bad for Ron. I loved the sweaters that Mrs. Weasley made for the trio. I'm looking forward to reading the next chapter.

I loved the letter that Harry sent to the Prophet. Very OC of him, but fitting. Kind of Churchillish. Just what the people needed to inspire them.

I also liked the use of the quote. And of course I enjoyed Hermione's shock that Harry knew it. I want to say that it was from Henry V. Was it? I know that I'm probaly wrong, but....

The scene where Hermione went to him was perfect. Really well written. All in all, this entire chapter was really well written. Bravo!!

Aw, damn. The bit with the sweaters is fantastic. As usual, very, very good work. Oh, and the smutty interlude is nice too.

wonderful chapter! The inspiring letter about hope to the Daily Prophet was really good and of course that last part was great too. keep it up!

this was a good chapter...i felt really abd for ron. im looking forward to the next chapters of your story.

thanks for another great chapter - it always gets me when charlie dies, he's definitely me favourite weasley. looking forward to reading more soon

That was a good chapter. I'm glad he did send a letter to the Prophet to give some inspiration to folks. It was a good thing to do.

I also want to thank you for making the smut scene optional. That means I don't have to do my general scroll down for a bit and hope I didn't miss anything important to the plot. I really appreciate that.

Please keep up the great work and update as soon as you can. Thanks for posting!

interesting chapter. cute cliffy. seems as tho things are coming together... in very small bits. Looking forward to the next chapter

great story so far. I'm really enjoying the gradual development of the plot, while being consistent in the character growth.

on the A/N: Too true. Where as in OOTP, Harry's reaction to Hermione getting hit with the Purple Flame, much more of an ACT of love than anything that Ron has produced. good story, I'll keep reading.

awesome! cant wait to see what happens next! almost cried when charliedied
