New Chapter for Time Lapse
Time Lapse
Pearle42 Reviews | 7.5/10 (42 Ratings, 0 Likes, 50 Favorites )
“Oh my God! You’re dead! I saw you die.” Hermione’s face turned deathly white as she stared at the profile of the man she thought had died and left her alone to face the world without him. Time has started to run backward for our heroine, as we watch the story of her love affair with one Severus Snape play out from finish to start and start again. *Mostly DH compliant, but definitely EWE.
The idea for this odd fic comes from the Seinfeld episode, “The Apology.” The story runs backwards from the start of the episode when the group is attending a wedding in India, back to the beginning (or the very last scene of the episode) when the invitation to the wedding arrives in the mail, stuttering back randomly every few minutes as events are presented in reverse order.

I am amazed and enthralled with the Harry Potter universe, with the emphasis on Snape. HG/SS is my favorite ship (you have been warned). I like sci-fi ? Star Wars, Quantum Leap, Star Trek, and Ray Bradbury to name a few. Horror also catches my interest as in Stephen King. I am a married, mother of two teenagers, multiple pets (dogs, cats, rabbits, turtle), and I work way too many hours. The rest is window dressing and subject to change without notice. I am also on staff on a wonderful new site called Playwitch. Visit when you get a minute: WWW.Playwitch.net

It's a good idea to have written this that way. And you're absolutely right. Having put the epilogue at the biginning would've ruined the suspense. I'm just curious about the name of the French hospital "Charlotte Duerre". Where did you find this? Was she some kind of famous french doctor or you just created her for the story?
I liked that quite a bit.
Lovely!!! But then, so are all of your stories. I was so happy to see a story from you in the queue when I logged on. This was really nice, and you were right to keep the epilogue at the end. And this line was really funny: “Fine, I’m a virgin. Well, technically, I don’t think that’s true anymore. " That just seems like such a Hermione statement. <g>
wonderful fic, i like the originality, while i was reading i thought please don´t tell me it is a one shot!, but the epilogue was just right were it should be.
Reading the story backwards was kind of hard to begin with but it was a very good read! Great job!
Good to read a one shot that isn't just well written and thought out, but has an interesting storytelling format too. Allthough I could "Waargh" at them for not having fluffy-flower-sexy-paradise-thingies right after the Shrieking Shack incident. But then again, don't think that would have given us a great story :)
I have not seen the Seinfeld episode you mentioned, but the technique you applied to relate your story was easy to follow and I enjoyed the telling.
Pearel, what a heartfelt story. I liked the format a lot better than I thought that I would. I hope that since we are seeing a fic from you, that means that you are feeling good. Hugs, Muggle Mom
Loved it. Thanks. Stories like this are all too rare. Great job.
Oh, wow, I loved the format of this fic. Thanks for a fantastic story!
I like your format, how you have it in reverse. It is different, and entertaining. Lovely!
Severus, you idiot, it's about time you start to fight for what's yours!Great story, a lot less confusing than I thought it would be, being backwards and all.
WOW Pearle, Excellent story, MORE, MORE!!! Have missed you and your stories...Glad you are back!
Lovely, I liked it!!! Wanted to kick Severus's ass, but I loved it:-))
How creative of you ...it was a pleasure to read!
I enjoyed this very much. The format is interesting and fun to read. It's always nice to see a new story from you (as well as new chapters for WIP's). I hope that this is a sign that you've been feeling well.
I really like this story. It made me happy. Great job!
