Great update. I really liked this chapter. My favorite line was when Min told Albus

"Albus...please don't take this wrong, but...I hope our child doesn't take after his uncle."

I can understand why. I really like Aberforth's nickname for Min, "Tabkins" is really cute and different from "Tabby" that Albus calls her. I've never read it in any other fic.

As usual, update soon with another chapter, please.

Kay

And it seems to me you lived your life (Albus)
Like a candle's golden flames,
Never fading with the sunset,
When Dark times appeared.
But, your footsteps will always fall here,
Along Hogwarts hallowed halls,
And, though your magic may be gone,
Your legend never will.

(My tribute to Albus Dumbledore, with thanks to Elton John's song, Candle in the Wind.)

Tabkins was perfect; I agree with JKMcGonagall, very orginal. This story just keeps getting better and better.

I enjoyed this chapter and I hope all goes well from now on though I have a feeling, this is the calm before the storm. Clayre x

I can't wait for more. I'm wondering what role this baby will play as there must be a reason for such a show of power when he/she was conceived.

Yes, time for some answers. I hope Albus and Min stay safe when he starts looking for them. It would also be nice if Poppy could bring Min some new robes. The old ones can only strech so far, I'm sure.

Nice update, now do it again soon, please...(hands folded looking at the screen hopefully).

I knew Albus couldn't wait much longer. It is going to be interesting to see what Millicent says and if this is really her or some unknown force behind the hunting of Albus and Minerva.

Oh and Jaya, if you ever decide to write a series of lemons linked by little bits of plot, be sure to let me know. Yours are always a great read.

Hmmmm me thinks Minerva might be having twins! I didnt show for ages but then my bump sprung from nowhere!

I am glad Albus is going to try and find out what is going on, they need to get it sorted for all their sakes.

Looking forward to the next chapter!

I was slow to show when I was pregnant but I believe its only one baby. I'm banking on the baby not being your average kid due to the magical outburst when it was conceived or maybe Minerva is eating a lot now! Great update and I can't wait to see what happens with the ministry.

I could smell that foreshadowing a mile away. Great update though. Wonder what will happen when Albus tries to force the issue with the Minister. I hope it doesn't get too ugly.

I like the way this is unfolding slowly and the interactions between all the various characters, but two days is such a long time to wait!

We shall all be good and refrain from bothering your boss, but only if we get a really long update with a lemon next time, teehee.

Lovely chapter.
