very fun mystery!fic!. i really liked the boys as healers, especially harry as a general healer and draco as a researcher. i thought it really suited each of their personalities. the friendship between hermione and draco was a nice element, and i love when hermione plays matchmaker. the sex was wonderfully hot, and there was a lot of tenderness there too. such a cute end! so like draco to realize harry gets horny on trains and then rent out the whole damn thing! *g*

I'm glad you enjoyed the mystery part of the story. I also love the boys as healers, especially Draco as a researcher and Harry seems to fit the general healer category.

A wonderful read. I have a weakness for healers fics, and this has everything: good plot, hot sex, and a great matchmaker Hermione. Loved it!

I giggled about Harry enjoying the view of Draco's arse. Loved to see Draco as someone who knows his stuff, and Harry as well. I really liked how equal they were in this task - a nice use of the prompt.

The friendship between Hermione and Draco seemed a bit too close for me and I had to decide that I would believe it in sake of reading the story. I would have liked a bit of information how they had managed to develop such a friendship and how Draco had been able to overcome his deeply rooted prejudices against Muggle-borns. The same goes for Harry's instant gay-ness.

The plot, on the other hand, had me intrigued. I enjoy plot and found this one about the Squib children and their mothers very engaging. I really enjoyed to see it solved!

Thank you for your comments. I see Draco as being changed after the war. I know from experience that while it's not easy to change the habits of a lifetime - it can be done. I appreciate your candor.

Thanks for reading.

Great story. I love the decade-old mystery that came to life now. Nice to see that the General Healer picked up on the similarities, and that both Draco and Harry were able to work out what needed to be done. And yay for Severus helping out from beyond. Though I'm sure he would be mortified by the side-effect of Harry & Draco's relationship. Hee.

And I loved that both boys were pining for each other, yet in denial all along. They just needed that little nudge, and wow! Mmm. Very hot.

Thanks darling! I did have fun with the fact that Severus inadvertently helped get the boys together. *snerk*

lovely fic! you used the idea of beginnings and endings really well. the potion and voldemort's plans fit seamlessly into established canon, and i liked that harry and draco had to go through snape's journals to discover an antidote.

another aspect i liked very much was harry and draco getting together about halfway through. it was nice to follow them through the first few weeks of their relationship, and the flash forward to their honeymoon was the icing on the cake :)

Thank you for your comments, especially for the comment on the prompt. I'm glad their relationship worked for you. Sometimes it's hard to get the pace right for the story.
