I just found this story and read the whole thing in about two days. I like that doesn't make the whole Hermione/ Snape thing seem too impossible nor too over-the-top magical. I also liked that Snape loses faith in this chapter. When do you think we can expect the next? Thanks for writing!

Author's Response: Ooh, my goodness, thank you! Kudos to you for reading this whole thing in two days; it's a lengthy little sucker. I will have the next chapter up either tonight or tomorrow, I think. Hope you enjoy it! Thanks for reading!
