    Stole this from the net:
    "I fall cause I let go, the net below has rot away"(Metallica): the man doesn't care for anything anymore, he has "let go" of his own self, stop caring for himself, he falls because letting go this way means saying "f**k you" to everything and everyone including yourself. It's not a relief, a liberation, it's a denial, it's turning your back on people and on your own self.
    For me, the "net below" stands for this self-respect that keeps us from spitting at our own face for the ugly things we've done. His has rotten because he has let it withered. This can happen when you find yourself unable to forgive yourself for all those bad deeds, when you judge and condemn yourself for ever for what you've done.
    Then, there's nothing worth anymore, especially not you. You let your self-respect decaying and you fall. http://www.geocities.com/thebluepond/metallica/lowman.html

    At the risk of being labelled a sychophant, even though I'll willingly swear to the fact that you didn't tell me beforehand, I think the title refers to Harry and Ron's safety net of anonimity, and for Harry personally, his best friend Ron. Everybody knows who they are now, and Harry doesn't even have the refuge of his best friend left, as Ron clearly hates him now. The "rot" refers to Ron's seething animosity towards Harry, I think.


    There were a couple of things in this chapter that threw me.....one was Lucius losing his cool in court and blurting out what he did, thus irrevocably damning himself to conviction, and the other was Ron. It's understandable, if not entirely right, that he would hold some resentment towards Harry for all he'd suffered, but to have him actually complain about Harry getting more attention in reference to their identities being revealed is beyond the pale, and incredibly petty of him! I don't like this Ron.....even if he were to apologise later, I'm not so sure Harry should forgive him this.

    As for my speculating on the plot, you horrid woman, you only encourage it, and then stonewall me refusing to let anything on!!! But you don't fool me, Missy! You revel in taunting me, I know you do!! And anyway, if I didn't try and guess the plot, you'd think I didn't like the story! Which I do, so update! Immediately!

    WOW!!!!!

    That was really hard for the aurours to hear.

    I know you said this is a dark story, but I can said that this is the darkest story that I have read in a long time but a really good one.

    Hmm.....interesting. I had thought that Severus' earlier taunting of Harry giving his permission for what he did to him was simply a psychological torture device, but now I'm not so sure. With a good lawyer he could possibly not be convicted. Grrrr! You've opened up a whole new can of worms here, making me wonder about whether or not this is all some sort of plan, either Voldemort's or Dumbledore's,....a means to an end.....aarrrgghh! Update! Immediately! You're making me crazy!

    What a fitting title for this chapter. (11) It's a shame that Ron makes so little of Harry's torture, it's almost as if he doesn't understand, or refuses to ascknowledge, that Harry was tortured too, in the name of sparing Ron. Makes me wonder if Ron was told that, in the end, Harry begged for it to be Ron, for himself to be spared any further punishment. Update soon.

    Of course I knew that was going on! Like they would really spare him...It does piss me off that Ron makes Harry's torture seem like nothing! I do feel bad for them both because here Ron thought that he was protecting Harry all this time and Harry did too only to crack at the end. The sadness....I cant wait for another chapter!

    I hope this isn't one of those stories where it only takes a few moments before Harry is ready to forgive Snape for everything he has put him through. This ordeal is something Harry has to live with for the rest of his life. If they do end up together it should be years into the future and after hours of therapy! Still there is no way for Harry to have his old self back.

    Hmm....it'a a bit difficult to review this chapter as there's not a whole lot to go on, but I am glad to see Harry and Ron ahve been rescued. I guess I'd have to say also that I was surprised, although not quite sure why, to see that Severus had been arrested with the rest of the Death Eaters. I guess it makes sense, however, as he was there and it would look suspicious if he weren't. I'm wondering if this isn't all some sort of convoluted plan of Dumbledore's......I guess I'll have to wait and see. This chapter has left me a bit unsettled because of all the questions I have, so please, hurry and update!!
