More please.. I invision a story set around this letter, a long story preferably, one with intrigue, action and romance.Kill the spare, Ron that is, and Hermione will be forced to find true love with Severus.... What??? I am just trying to help you out here. Don't look at me like that... Sorry, I feel the flu coming on and am delerious.Loved it, wish for it to continue. Thanking you...Love Sonia :)

I enjoyed this and would love to see you continue with a sequel.

very nice, especially for a first effort. It did make me choke up for a moment.

nice short fic, and clearly such a ltter would spike her curiosity.  If you are just starting, you may want to try 100 word drabbles, they help sharpen the writing and do not take a lot of time. 

That was great and I for one would love to read a sequel (and a mutli chapter one at that!) I think you have a very elegant writing style and I liked the fact that the letter wasn't a love letter, Snape has just opened her eyes now we need to see what she sees.

It's a cute story  -- it sounds like there's an alternate 6th & 7th year in there, and that HG, HP, & RW are off to hunt Horcruxes after their 7th year, and HBP never happened. I do like alternate 6th-year fics. I liked HBP, but I really love AUs in which SS never had to kill AD, for some reason, and I like a more-or-less good (or, at least, not evil) SS. I think that if you have the ideas for it, a sequel or a prequel/sequel could work quite well.

I wasn't entirely sure of SS's motivation for sending HG the letter, so I think that could be something a sequel could explore quite nicely.  It was an intriguing glimpse that you gave us!

Oh, there are so many interesting hints, I can not help hoping that you do continue this, answering some of the questions and giving them happy ending.

Nice one-shot. I look forward to seeing it continue if you decide to do so. I like that the letter was hidden, and that it disintegrated. I also like how he was in the shadows and made the slight contact with her. And that it wasn't a love letter. I, too, think that it would be frustrating to be required to berate a student who should be commended. Just a quick note on writing style. I loved that you started with a short sentence and the second was long. The second paragraph of the story was much harder to read since the sentences were almost all long. I found the paragraphs where you varied sentence type & length to be more readable.Thanks for sharing your writing, and I'll look forward to seeing what else you write. :)

I like it.

I won't deny I'd love to know what happens after the war, with both alive and no need of hiding... or maybe they find each other during the war? He hinted he was going to help them in the letter...

Anyway, it was a good little story as a one-shot and if you don't decide to continue, I hope at least I'll see other fics written by you soon.

That would sure be a shock for Hermione to receive such praise from her former professor.  I liked it.

I would love to see you continue this story line.  Your writing style is good-- clear and uncomplicated.  I think you should go ahead and develop the plot here.

I think you did a great job with this. The 'voice' of Snape was not overly effusive, which would have ruined it for me. There is definite potential for more, a chance meeting somewhere, perhaps after the war, or a series of coincidences or something, with the unspoken letter hanging in the air... I don't know, you're the writer. This is a good starting point if you choose to take it, but it'll stand on its own. Hope to see more from you in the future!

I'm afraid I must beg you to write more, your ideas in this story show so much promise. I would certainly read it.HugsEvela

Please, please, please carry this on.I love it. I get the feeliing that there's so much more to tell.Pleeeeeeeease do more.I'll send you a cookie if you do.

This works beautifully as a one-shot, but I do hope you expand on it and turn it into a full-blown multi-chaptered story!

Oohh great start to this story. It would be fine to leave it as is, but to follow it up would be even better. Good job.

Your story was really good and I definitely think that you should make it more than a one shot. The story itself seems lke a prologue and makes me want to hear the rest of the story. Please post more!

I really enjoyed this little story. It was sad but sweet, he left so much unsaid in that letter for her to read between the lines. Thank you for sharing it.

Oh, I liked that.  I would love to see more. 

Well, I liked it!  I do hope you'll write a sequel to it. I'm a happy ending junkie so I'm putting my plea in now *wink*.  I'm glad you chose to post your work.  Thanks!

Very moving and bittersweet - it does make you hope that both of them survive the war (hint, hint!). Keep writing...

I really enjoyed this story. I'd love to see you write/finish the sequel you said you were working on! :-)

I liked this, either as a one shot, or if you decide to continue with it.

Oh I like it as a stand alone. Just a minute in time before the ravages of war are upon them. Good job!

very well done!  touching without being mawkish.  thanks so much
