    What a sad chapter. I think the miscarriage will have long reaching implications. Severus certainly will regret the loss and I know Trudy does, even if she doesn't admit it to him. I loved the description of her angst over his questions. He really does mean more to her than she is willing to admit. Great job.

    Sorry, just read this - I'm happy to Britpick whenever you want; I didn't find anything that needed changing in this chapter though. I loved, "Chin up; no blubbering in the beef," - very Dumbledore!

    I enjoyed the time-turner sex - I wonder if the time-turner will come in handy for other plot-driven purposes? Hmmm.

    That was quite a mean trick of Hermione's as well - good on Trudy for setting her straight.

    So Snape is going to test Trudy - I look forward to that. He is so exacting.

    Wow, another wonderful and intense chapter. I can't wait to find out how this will be resolved. I hope both these lonely people get what they deserve.

    Poor Trudy. She had to deal with a cold-hearted man and now she has to deal with an emotionally distant one. I do feel for her.

    I loved this chapter, it had some great smut, some revelations about Severus, Trudy had a great put down for Hermione, and some hints that he cares much more about her than she knows or that he knows himself.

    How are they going to deal with keeping the students from finding out that she's living in his rooms with him? Even the biggest dunderheads could put 2+2 together if they find that out. And once they figure that out it's just a short step until they figure out what goes on in the Potions closet. I hope you can keep it from them, I love the thrill of them being in there and using the time tuner so the can get it off while his class is clueless just outside the door. It reminds me of Chapter 13 in Vresna Ussep's 'Secretly Slytherin', the chapter was called 'Quickie in the Closet' and it's one of my all time favorite chapters in fan fic. This one has also become one of my all time favorite chapters.

    So what's happening to Trudy? Has the curse not really been lifted after all? Or is she just driven wild with desire by teh Sev?

    Interesting corner-turn in the plot direction. Now they have to rescue Elizabeth, and somehow Snape and Trudy have to rub along (heh) together in the dungeons while they plot. Opportunities for limitless lashings of sexual tension there.

    I really liked the passage that dealt with Snape introspecting on his sexual past, and I loved the use of the word 'dissatisfying' to describe his self-inflicted pleasures; it went beyond 'unsatisfying' and gave a perfect insight into the emptiness and self-loathing of his experiences.

    Your version of Snape is by far my current favourite; I'd be happy if this story never ended.

    (Chapter 11)

    I'm dying of curiousity to know what Severus' plan is. It was both sad and slightly amusing to see Severus try everything rather than admit to himself that he has feelings for Trudy. Curious how Voldemort has lifted the curse, yet she's still feeling the effects. Can't wait to see how Severus rationalises her wanting him. Update soon please!

    Either Voldemort lied, or they have formed a bond that can't be broken with the release of the spell. Trudy is truly a sad character. Lestrange did a job on her, and now Snape is having to do the same. I enjoyed the chapter, even if it was a little depressing to think of Trudy's plight and that of her daughter.

    Please update soon, I can't wait for more smut in the potions closet. A quickie in the closet sounds like a lot of fun.

    Well, lots of questions were answered in this chapter and the most important one for me was that they both have real feelings for each other. This is one time that I'm glad Dumbledore decided to interfere and manipulate, now they have to stay together and since all the effects of the curse don't seem to have subsided yet, she
    still needs access to his soothing ministrations.

    Wow... I'm really excited to read the rest of this story! A Lestrange as Elizabeth's father... that's quite the twist. :) I love that Trudy is so real. She's not a Mary-Sue, she's not normal, predictable, she's different. And I really, really like it. She's so... believable, so much a real person. So excellent job. :) I can't wait to see Snape try to explain his whole agent/double agent/triple agent thing... XD

    Chapter 10: This was an excellent forward-moving chapter, well worth the wait. Voldemort is coldhearted, but he knuckled under to Elizabeth. I would love to have heard that three-way Parseltongue conversation. Snape and Trudy got the worst of it this time. It

    you know one thing i like about this story was Trudy calling the dark lord Voldemort, but no one else has the guts to say that name, even snape. Trudy also calls him different things that no wizard would call him. It really reminds you that Trudy is a muggle and until now she hasn't seem the horrors that voldemort has done.

    I really like your latest chapter. Can't wait for you to update!
