omg! this story is brilliant (as was the last!) Luna is a totally under used character and when she is used people make her totally ditzy, i love the way you write your Luna and the relationship between her and snape is fantastic and totally sweet, i dont think i have read a fic that looks at the relationship she has with her father, i cant wait to read more about it. I also love the relationship snape has with Harry and the way he retains some snarkiness as well as being nice to him, i do hope an update is soon coming! ta

This is just a quick little mention of my favorite bits:"...wishing fervently Snape would stop talking to him so he could concentrate on losing consciousness, or possibly dying." and "Almost at once the pain begins to recede, like a thick, greasy carpet rolling backwards off his body." Your descriptions of Harry's misery are visceral and hit the mark! You might consider even leaving off the part about Harry being 'sore' because it minimizes your other descriptions. I love how humor does wend it's way through your writing, it makes it very readable.
As for Snape, I definitely like 'snarky Snape' because I think it's too engrained in his personality to abandon it entirely. :D

I do hope you have not abandoned this story. Your treatment of Luna is extraordinary. I have never felt so sympathetic toward her as I have in reading this piece.
Please do updae if at all possible.
I just tried to review three times in a row - the anonmyous reviews don't work - so eventually I got over my laziness and logged in, because I could not pass this lovely story without a lengthy review.
I adore Luna's involvement - the way she slips, surreptitious and yet immediately indispensible, into Harry's life. I know you said no comments on evil!Ginny, so I will refrain - but I do enjoy Luna's presence here, even if - or perhaps, especially if - romance does not become the central focus between them.
It is odd how little we've seen Ron and Hermione, as though the fact that they haven't had trauma in their lives excludes them from the club of Luna, Snape, and Harry, as though they could not possibly understand. I think this might be a mistake. I hope you don't demonize or marginalize either of Harry's two original best friends, who have been there for him since the beginning of the novels...
I truly feel for Harry, who seems to think he is unlovable, unacceptable... I do hope Snape and Luna help convince him otherwise. Your Snape is amazing, by the by - caring without lapsing into sappy, often quite honestly at a loss as to how to deal with Harry.
Thanks for this story - it is amazing so far, and I can't wait to see more!

Author's Response: I would have hoped that the quality of Harry's admittedly brief interactions with Ron and Hermione in the story so far would have kept you from worrying about any such thing, but no, I have no intention of demonizing them. Hermione, Ron, and Ginny are all very important to me, even if they don't play large roles in this story.
