    Great chapter because now I'm wondering how Harry feels about the conversation Severus had!

    Author's Response:

    Thanks! I have to keep the suspense up, now, don’t I? Throw Lucius Malfoy in the game and make things uncertain again :-) 

    I’m having a spot of trouble with the coming chapter, so it will be a bit longer than usual before I update, but I will be back soon.

    Argh. I can't believe no one besides Snape considers health important. It's painstaking obvious Harry is in no condition to give a statement.. The least they could have done was to go to the hospital themselves, specially if it's preliminary.

    I hope Harry doesn't take what Lucius said very seriously. Even if it was an interesting conversation to overhear it's still Lucius..

    I didn't realise before how lonely Harry must be. And after everything that happened he has to go back to the Burrow and meet Ginny and the other Weasleys and all. It's just too much. It's so unfair that people expect him to be so self sufficient.

    I'm actually glad these last chapters were so dense now that it's "over". It opens a lot of possibilities and it made Harry and Snape resemble each other more and seem closer.

    Author's Response:

    You put your finger on one of the points that I wanted to illustrate with these last chapters: how lonely Harry is. Snape is in fact the one who stands by him most consistently, even if he miscalculated when he gave Harry the advice to support Ginny in accepting the Obliviating treatment. The Weasleys still care for Harry, though.

    Fantastic :)! Love how Snape and Harry are defending each other! But oft course Harry had to hear Severus Tallinn:( ;) Can't wait for more:)!

    Author's Response:

    Thank you. Let’s wait and see what kind of damage Lucius Malfoy might cause… Or has Harry’s faith in Snape become strong enough to resist his machinations? 

    I’m having some issues with the coming chapter, so it will be a bit longer than usual before I update… but I will be back soon :-)

    Loved how what seemed the right thing for Snape and Steadfast to do at the time turned out not to be for the best.

    Author's Response: Yes, isn't that so interesting and frustrating at the same time! But that is how it turns out sometimes. It is difficult to keep one's wits about oneself in the middle of an emregency.

    Whew! I totally overlooked the legal aspects of Ginny's Obliviation. What a potential horrendous error. I guess this would be a good reason to prevent Oblivations against the wishes of the patient: when there is a current legal case in progress and the patient is a witness. The Judge was also correct: Snape had too many conflicts of interest and Steadfast totally botched the investigation.

    I enjoyed the questioning of Harry in that many issues were brought up. The Priori Incantatem was much more fleshed out than in canon. I didn't enjoy the questioning while Harry was so debilitated. That was just cruel and callous. LOL, very gov't-like.

    People and societies are flawed and it can be very interesting to read with the right author. I don't need to add that you are one of those authors.

    Great chapter as always.

    Author's Response:

    Thanks, that was really nicely put of you, Teriwright! 

    There are several major objections abainst the Obliviate spell, as I'm trying to illustrate in this story. I always thought that it was rather carelessly used in the original novel...

    I’m having some issues with the coming chapter, so it will be a bit longer than usual before I update... but I will be back :-)
