Ah, I loved the "Peanuts" inspired title- it fits perfectly. So thanks goes to your beta's: GinnyW, Horserider, and JuneW : you guys are amazing! So this chapter... very interesting. I was on the edge of my seat a few times where I thought Hermione would say she didn't want to try any more- ah! The interaction between Ginny, Harry and Hermione was played well. I'm excited as to see what happens next chapter! I hope you and your family are feeling better... Can't wait for another chapter (it brightens my day)!

Author's Response: Yeah, I was stuck for a good chapter title and Ginny came up with that one. Yeah, Hermione was tempted to just say "fuck this, I'm outa here," but she's a noble, stubbon Gryffindor who is not a quitter. Her loss. Thank you. Everyone has been well this week, which feels like the first time in ages. The next chapter is with my betas right now, so it's on its way.

another positively glowing chapter! Fabulous work! As always, anxiously awaiting the next installment!

Author's Response: Thank you! There will be quite a bit more 'glowing' in the next chapter.

You updated! Yay! And out of sheer curiosity, will you marry me? That episode with Ron and Hermione was absolutely SUPURB!

Author's Response: Yes, I did. Funny thing, I have more updates on the way. That's the way these WIPs work. ;-) Your offer of marriage is appreciated, but I don't think they allow polygamy in the state of California. Glad you enjoyed the counseling session.

it's taking me quite some time to get through this, but I appreciate the effort and thought that went into it. I still believe that Hermione should divorce Ron and run like hell! "I just hope that hotel got the smell and stain out of that phone booth after that Christmas party." *snort*

Author's Response: I'm sure the hotel has dealt with worse. Yes, you are of the 99.998 percent of my other readers that Hermione should leave Ron. And the other 0.002 percent? One reader who though Hermione was WRONG, WRONG, WRONG for mentally cheating on Ron. He was rather insistent that Hermione was immoral.

"In this corner, we have 'Ron the Underminer' master of degrading comments. In the other Corner, we have 'Danger Granger' queen of the left hook. Today on The Jerry Springer Show!" I'm kidding, I feel bad that Hermione is so wounded by her hurt that she can't withstand Ron's barbs in front of the counselor. It's almost like she doesn't know how to defend herself from him so she just lashes out. Harry and Ginny at least still seem to have their friendship. I just adore your Harry. You won't let me have Snape, so can I have him instead? ;D Draco made a very good point to Snape. I hope he takes the words to heart and does something about it. I think Ginny gets how things really are. She seems to, anyway. I liked her little 'nudge nudge, wink wink' comment on how Hermione will be at the spa. Then her halo appeared,( taped to her horns. ) "I just mean 'for the cause'" Yeah, right! Nice chapter, explored everyone's feelings thoroughly.

Author's Response: Yours and cathmorgan's reviews are always very insightful. It's not just that Ron insulted Hermione so blatantly, but in front of other people. If you have noticed, most of Ron's barbs to Hermione happen in private when no one else is around, so no one else really witnesses his attacks on Hermione and Hermione does not feel the humiliation of others watching him cut her down. It's one thing to suffer the insults, it's another to suffer them with spectators. In front of others, who wants to just sit there and "take it." Ginny and Harry are on better terms. Harry is getting counseling to deal with some of his own inner deamons and a lot of misunderstnadings, especially about sex, have been cleared up. You can have Harry, as he really is a decent fellow at heart. I think the next chapter will illuminate Snape's thoughts on Draco's remarks. And yes, Ginny is very perceptive. Being the baby of the large family, sometimes you have to be in order to survive - and I speak from experience.

Betas are wonderful. A good beta is worth their weight chocolate. Three cheers to yours! :-) I hope you and your family are feeling better and that soon RL will give you time to sit and play with your writing. That was certainly an interesting counseling session. I loved when Hermione socked Ron in the jaw. Oddly I also loved when Ron said he said those hurtful words to Hermione to hurt her, obviously. Normally people aren't that honest about what they do and make up little excueses about how they didn't realize they were hurting someone. I actually think Ron really wants out of the marriage too, but is too afraid of his mother and what wizarding society will say. Will someone confront Molly about why she didn't tell Hermione everything about marriage? That's something I really want to see.

Author's Response: Yes, good betas can make or break a story, and I have been blessed with some good betas. Thank you for your concern. Your review is very illuminating and interesting. Good points. Can't say anymore.

I just wish poor Hermione had clocked Molly as well...ah well, I'll try to be patient. I expect she'll let her have it eventually unless Hermione's guilt over the (in my mind) inevitable break-up with Ron leads her to hold her tongue. Molly will be crushed already by that. Thanks for another great chapter!

Author's Response: Yes, well, don't we all wish that Herrmione and GInny could do some rather painful things to Molly. Thank you, more on the way.

Again an astounding chapter – I was always interested to see a session with the counsellor.
They behaved much more badly than I expected and I can only agree with the therapist that the two are a reason to quit this profession, if you won’t take it as an ensured income for years!
Although you make us see also Hermione´s part in the enormous difficulties between them, I truly find her very stubborn not to capitulate. She is the one who is clearly more vulnerable and violated, because she takes the whole verbal fits at face value, not tactically. Quite typical for an only child. Ron had far more exercise in crosstalk with his siblings, and he isn’t very considerate on top.
He deserved that she jumped on him and boxed him in the face. Perhaps he’ll comprehend that she feels as literally hurt by his words as he feels by her fist.
I liked it that you give us a lot of inside in Severus thoughts. The very best image of the whole chapter was Severus standing in the lift and chewing on Draco´s words
Thank you for this chap and a lot of fun and success with the Bonsai club exhibition. ~ Moyra

Author's Response: Yes, Hermione is a "say what you mean, mean what you say" sort of girl. You are very perceptive, she does take the insults to heart, as one would do in a house with only loving parents and no bickering siblings woiuld deal with. I think Ron will think twice before getting that verbally vicious again. Glad you enjoyed the vision of a flummoxed Snape, as you so aptly put it, "chewing on Draco's words." Thanks and the bonsai show went well.
