| ACK! Well, I didn't see that one coming. Ever. I read Wounded today (yes, all today, it's not like I have a life or anything:) and I didn't review. I know, I'm terrible. But my goodness..... I did NOT see that one coming. EEK! Author's Response: No worries, on the not reviewing the others one. :) I know how caught up you can get and how you can get in a hurry to move on. This story has been a lot of fun for me to write and I have even surprised myself from time to time. LOL | |||

Well done Ms. Phoenix Author's Response: LOL That is quite a revelation isn't it? I hope that you are able to get back to the story soon and continue reading on. I'm glad you are enjoying the story. I like to try to find new and unusual twists, and that one worked, didn't it. LOL | |||

| Hmm, the idea of Snape in a romantic relationship is interesting, because I imagine it would not come easy to him. But now that Voldemort is dead, he can have that, and I think it would take an assertive, intelligent woman like Aurelia to break through his walls. Hopefully you continue to keep him snarky, defensive, and awkard, because anything else (sentimentality, tenderness) is quite out of character. Author's Response: Thanks, Amanda. I'm glad you like the idea of Severus finally being able to move on. I have a wonderful beta, thanks Zen Lady, who is more than happy to smack me around when I get too romantic. I'm working on getting the next chapter ready for posting. :) | |||

| Oh bog! I just did not expect that. Hah! Well done on a brilliant bit of lateral thinking. JKR eat your heart out. Author's Response: Thanks, Black Spot. That was a fortuitous bit of fortune I got from Hells. Had she not mentioned it in a beta return of my Deathday entry, I never would have had it in this story. I have to thank her again for that little mention. :) | |||

| What an interesting and unexpected revalation (about his mother)! I have heard of this theory and this is the first time I have seen it used in a story! Great job! This chapter was very well done. Severus was so....Snape! His dialog was so very like him in tone and verbage. I could almost hear his voice (or I guess it's Rickman's voice *sigh*)! I like how you have set up the upcoming chapters. I look forward to more. Author's Response: Thanks, greenwood. I have to say that I haven't seen this incorporated into a story either, though I have read only a few post-war fics, so that might have something to do with it. I'm glad you like how I've portrayed Snape. I'm going to once again thank Zen Lady for smacking me back in the right direction when I started to stray a little too far away from Snape. :) Actually, that would be make him change too quickly. *wink* | |||

| You're right about the choppy, or maybe it should be rough and stormy, seas when it comes to the romance, he has the social skills of a geeky 13 yr old. Do you remember Kevin's friend Chuck on "The Wonder Years"? That's about where his social development is, with a nasty, snarky, and sarcastic side that Chuck didn't have.
Notice I tired to keep to the nautical (read Naval) way of putting it that you started with smooth sailing? I've got a question for you, were you at the Academy the year the printer made a mistake and used Navel on the diplomas instead of Naval? It just goes to show that everybody needs a proof reader. Author's Response: Thank goodness I was not part of the "Navel" class. I think it was either '94 or '95, so I was there. When we heard about it, we couldn't believe it. I'm glad I'm not the only who thinks Severus is emotionally immature, but given how he treats Harry, he has proven that he is capable of some serious regression. I do recall Chuck, but only vaguely. Thankfully, I've seen enough media, met enough awkward people in real life, that as long as I keep focused, I have no problem imagining the immaturity. | |||

| That was quite a twist at the end! I also enjoyed Helen manipulating him and him letting her get away with it.
He did lose the only 2 people he could consider friends in the war, so he doesn't have any friends to go to for advice or just to talk things out with someone. Now that we find that Irma Pince is really Eileen Prince will she have the memories from both her identities? Otherwise, how will she be able to councel him without knowing all the backstory and what's going on now?
I'm happy to see that the romance popped it's head up quite early in this story. They already had a good platonic relationship and I did feel that a romance would flow naturally from that friendship. That's why I asked for the sequel.
Until the twist at the end I had never thought about how the name of Irma Pince could be related to Eileen Prince. Author's Response: Thanks, Trickie. The bit with Helen was something completely inspired in the second or third edit. I was initially going to put her in Hufflepuff, but after I had that wonderful little idea, I knew where she belonged. *wink*...As for Irma/Eileen, don't worry, those questions will be answered in the next chapter. Interesting story on that, I never thought about it either until I sent my Deathday entry to beta and my lovely beta, Hells, mentioned the Pince/Prince theory to me. Never dawned on me until that moment. :-D And of course, once I had that idea, I decided to take advantage of it. I must be hanging out at the wrong HP sites never to have seen that one. Either that or I never paid it any mind...I agree that romance can start working it's way in to this one pretty early as they do have a strong friendship already. Of course, knowing Severus, it won't be smooth sailing. *wink* | |||

| I see you're intrigued by Irma Pince too, grin! :-) This story is very enjoyable and I'm looking forward to reading more! Author's Response: Thanks, CareCrystal. My intrigue with Irma Pince is only recently realized thanks to the Deathday Festival. I'm bouncing between two fics right now, so once I get the next chapter of the other one where I want it, I intend to clean up the next chapter of this one. My Beholden muses are overruling my Redemption muses right now, but I'm sure that will shift in the future. :-) | |||
