| Ack! Hmmm ... I don't think the Denseev marriage is as idyllic as he thinks; his wife is too simpering and I suspect she has her own rebellion simmering. Perhaps Olyweh's aunt will rescue her and bring her to Hogwarts? Like poor Andrew in the last chapter, you've painted a powerful (and in this case, UGLY) picture of a character - Segrassi - in just a few paragraphs. What a slimeball! This Jrinnu poetry sounds sappy - romance written by people who don't believe in or value love. No wonder the aunt never married - but how did she escape an arranged marriage?? [Unless she's a widow?] Nope, nope, I have to contain my curiosity until the next chapter... Author's Response: Women in that culture can veto a marriage, if they choose. The aunt simply never accepted to get married and sooner or later the offers dried up. You know, I've actually MET men like Segrassi? They were really open about their lifestyle, too (poor wife)! Thanks for reviewing! | |||

| This is really shaping up beautifully! Author's Response: LOL, I'm glad you're enjoying it! | |||

| Interesting twist. I look forward to whatever will happen next! Author's Response: Pretty grim for our girl, but things will get worse before they get better. | |||

| Voldie's contact - is it Olyweh's father?? I feel badly about how Severus didn't help Andrew when he could've, but feel worse for Andrew. Poor Andrew did the best he could, considering his parents might've told him that Severus was a Death Eater - he should've tried Dumbledore instead. Since Voldie was aware he needed more numbers, he really should've kept Andrew alive - his vanity seems to be in control here. Are you going to show Harry-Ron-Hermione in this fic? Oops, sorry, asking lots of questions - should only ask one question: where's the next chapter?? Author's Response: I hope the next chapter gives you a hint who the contact is. I felt son sad writing Andrew! Never thought I would because he's only there for a moment, but there you are. I guess Rowling must've really agonized about killing off Cedric and Sirius. Actually, you got the nail on the head: Voldemort may be smart and calculating, but his ego trips him up. OK, writing about Filch is not so hard, writing about Snape and Pettigrew is really hard, but I would not dare make any kind of attempt with Harry-Ron_Hermione. I mean these three are the main characters and they've been superbly written to great detail by Rowling and I simply don't dare tinker with them. Fine, I'm no Gryffindor, I admit it! Next chapter is about half way done. Thanks for the review!! | |||

| Sheesh, with an aunt like that, Snape will be EASY for her to deal with! So how did the aunt and her sister grow so different from each other? Author's Response: Well the aunt is much, much older than the mother, so she didn't really grow away from her sister, but rather she was almost an adult when the sister was just a little girl. All this comes up later in the story. Wait until you see the aunt and Snape when they meet! Thanks for the review! | |||

| ... Seems to me that the Drakes forgot about something... Rationality, maybe? Great chapter - I really like the way you described what was happening with Snape during that 'display'. I am curious about what will happen next with the Jrinnu... Author's Response: Don't get me started on the Drakes. It's very hard to guess how Snape would react seeing a student in danger. I'm basing my own analysis on Book 2 where McGonagall says that a student has been taken by the monster and Snape gripped a chair until his knuckles were white... so without knowing who it was, he cared. Now imagine if it were one of his own House, he should care more bacause he knows them better. In my story it's very important that Snape be consumed by guilt about this because that will explain why he's so protective later. | |||

| I don't understand any people who are crazy enough to sacrifice their children for a cause. Once you begin sacrificing the future, you've lost. This is a wonderful carrying on of the immense following OotP. I feel sorry for Snape having to see this. Of course, I feel sorrier for Andrew Drake. ~Lisa Author's Response: Yes, well the Drakes had a horribly twisted version of Abraham's sacrifice in mind... frankly, I've never been able to process that one either, and I thought it was just the kind of story an extremist might latch on to. Yeah, poor Andrew. You know, once I read that Rowling came out of her office crying when she killed off Sirius, and I thought "well she must be very sensitive". Now, I totally understood her! I got so sad for poor Andrew! | |||

| You're a brilliant writer -always glad to see a new story of yours up! This one seems really interesting... are the J'rinnu (sp?) at all influenced by the Tinkers and their desert-dwelling relations in the Wheel of Time series? They seem a little like what that race might have been like if they hadn't split...
Also... *sigh* I keep forgetting how much I love your portrayal of Severus.
Cheers and keep writing! Author's Response: Thanks so much! I've never seen the Wheel of Time series, so I can truthfully say that there's no deliberate relation. Someone else asked me the same about Tinkers and I just thought they meant the dictionary word "tinker". I'm glad you liked Snape. It's always been very hard for me to write characters from the book... even Pettigrew had me thinking for a long while! | |||

| Interesting portrayal of Voldemort. His inability to taste and enjoy sweets brings to mind Dumbledore's love of the stuff - interesting indeed.
I look forward to more. Author's Response: I'm so glad you noticed that! Strangely enough, I'm never too nervous writing about Voldemort. The other characters have me twisted in knots, but this guy is just so simple: he's all bad. No redeming values whatsoever. I shall work tirelessly to bring more soon. Thanks for the review! | |||

| Yay! You're writing again! Looks like this is going to be an interesting journey. I like the very vivid setting and the characters that you have introduced. I'm looking forward to more! Author's Response: Thanks, Obadiah! The "vivid setting" comes from listening to my reviewers. Several have asked for more details and I'm trying to comply. It's not easy though. | |||
