I can't believe Lucius would want to make a scene and even talk about Voldemort in public especially since he had pleaded that he was under the imperius to get out of going to Azkaban in the past. I hope Severus comes up with a way for Harry to kill Voldemort without using an avada kedavra.
That was a very emotional chapter!
Ha!! I love your Warning for Lucius Malfoy!! He certainly does deserve a Warning in this fic, he's absolutely toxic!!
Poor Harry!! The burden of being the Saviour of the Wizarding World, and the pressure of feeling that he's going to be a failure before he's even begun!! I'm afraid Severus really does have his work cut out for him if he hopes to try to put Poor Harry back together again!!
Awesome chapter!! As always, your Severus rocks!!

Haha. I don't think this was really a cliff hanger. In fact, it gave a bit of nice closure to know that Snape finally understands Harry's thought process. A bit of a relief actually. Good man, Snape :D
Hope to see more soon! You're doing great.
Really, you think we hate cliffhangers? Noooo, not at alll.
Destroy Harry's well being? I though he was supposed to get better not worse!
oh my and so starts the new rollercoaster with Harry and Severus. Really great chapter, I was suprised that Harry went as far as he did with his threat. Looking forward to whats going to happen now, and what and if Severus decides to tell Dumbledore. Keep up the awesome work, and please update again soon. LES
Another great chapter. Thanks for not making us wait long for the update. I do think this is my favorite of your stories.
At least Harry was able to stand up to Lucius, even if he did have quite a reaction to it afterward. And yes, attempting to kill Lucius wasn't a good idea at that point, but I was pleased to see that Harry wanted to fight back, not just retreat inward.
Snape is clearly having a difficult time at this point. Having to go off by himself and recover for a few minutes, at a point where he already had evidence that Harry was going to have some sort of episode, shows us just how hard this is on Snape.
As usual, I love the subtle things you do, even in the midst of actions sequences, that convey so much. The scent of Lucius cologne was one, as was Snape's difficulty dealing with the aftermath.
I have to admit, this particular crisis at this point in the story had surprised me. I guess I was thinking you were moving to greater healing with smaller crisis episodes. The meeting with Lucius (which I did expect ultimately) happened earlier than I'd thought and therefore -- naturally -- was more difficult for Harry to take.
Excellent writing.
Wow...talk about a cathartic chapter! The last scene with Harry and Snape was extremely emotional and really made me choke up. And the scene where Harry was flashing back... It's interesting how the smell of Lucius's cologne, a smell that is usually considered pleasant, is enough to make Harry vomit. The fact that you emphasize small details like this makes this story so brilliant.
Great writing. Lovely chapter. You are all shades of awesome.
HEY! I didn't ask that you destroy Harry's well being! I wanted him to heal and get back to school and laugh with his friends. Now I'm sad. And willing to cast the killing curse myself on Malfoy!
I am so proud of Snape! Good job with this chapter, you should know that they just keep getting better...can't wait for the next chapter! (I do like it when horrible damage is inflicted on Harry from his past, but please make sure that he's going to be ok in the end!) Keep writing and I'll keep hanging on your every word to see what happens to our beloved pair of characters...great job of characterization by the way!
