It was a very well written story, but I can't bear to think of him alone, and broken on the cold stone floor.

Always alone and always the outsider. Poor Severus!! I will take him!!

salvamea

uh-oh. there is someone broken on the floor.*sniff* I feel so sorry for him.Well, as it seems, it must have been all in his head and his head alone.So sorry he didn't get her. Fascinating, what tricks the brain can play on you sometimes. How cruel.he would have deserved her. waiting for one whole year.grr.And then this Potter clan again.No wonder he was so mixed up in the end, that he called her Lily. But different from  her, Hermione never promied anything. so not her fawlt this time.Give him something to heal, please. be kind to him.

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

*sniff* Thank you so much for this wonderful review,

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

! This was one of the very first pieces of fanfic I ever wrote, and I am rather fond of it, despite its unhappy ending. And you have so accurately captured what I wanted to portray! Thank you again; I really appreciate it. In many of my fics, I will be kind to him. I promise. But here, I'm afraid, he doesn't get the happy ending. *sniff*

That was just a little creepy!  Excellently done tho

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

Aw, thanks

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

, I think your the first to call my story 'creepy,' which was definitely what I was going for. Snape is definitely creepy in this, I think, and unstable. Thank you so much for the wonderful review, I really appreciate it!

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

sad! *pouts* wicked the way you pulled the rug out from under us. too sad the image of somewhat wigged-out severus sunken on the cold stone floor. i will go read your other story now in search of a happier ending.

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

yes, my other story does indeed have a happier if somewhat ambiguous ending, so yay!I love your phrase "somewhat wigged-out severus" I think that sums it up nicely. Evil, evil little plot bunny! I enjoy my fics with lemons and happy endings, but this little bugger would not leave me alone. Thanks for the review, I'm glad it surprised you!!~kizzy

And that puts a twist on the normal Hermione / Severus tales. I rather like this one even though the ending isn't happy. Shows a very different side to the would be relationship. Good work.

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

Thanks so much for the review SW! I'm so excited you like it *jumps up and down with fangirly joy!* I know, I normally like happy endings too, but those evil little plot bunnies will stop at nothing...

A very chilling twist on Snape/Hermione, and yet one which just stays with you...  I thought it very well done, and it also makes you think.  It starts out like a standard romance, then takes a left turn at the last minute and knocks you for a loop!  Sometimes the unhappy tales are the most powerful ones.  Thanks for sharing!

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

Hi Indigo thanks so much for the review!! I was hoping that I would kind of trick people expecting a PWP, so I'm glad it worked, even though our poor severus doesn't have his well deserved happy ending in this fic *sniff* Thank you for the wonderful review, I really, truly appreciate it!

mia madwyn

Oh my. What a whammy you pulled on us, setting us up for one thing and delivering another. Just like Hermione did (or seemed to do) to Severus.

How sad. Wonderful fic, though.

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

thank you so much for the review, mia! It means so much, coming from you, one of my favorite authors ever (seriously, care of magical creatures...i have no words for how amazing it is...) Glad you liked my little fic though *fangirly squee!* Thanks for reviewing!

What a twist!  Poor, poor Severus, so mistaken in love. 

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

ah, yes, the twist! Glad it surprised you, i was going for something more unexpected and different than the pwp. I know, poor Severus! Thanks for reviewing, I really appreciate it!!

sinbad

What a sad story, it's almost as if Severus lost his mind not being able to seperate the two women..........

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

yes, he is definitely unstable in this fic. Actually, that is what gave me the idea for the story... severus mixing up hermione and lily... and it went from there. Thanks so so much for reviewing!!

Calicoskys

OMg that was so sad. But so well written. Poor hermione and severus

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

Thank you so much for your review! It was sad, it was sad to write because I am a hardcore hg/ss shipper and they should be together! But the rabid plot bunny demanded otherwise... I am glad you enjoyed it and thought it was well-written (*squee!) As a newbie author, I really appreciate it!

remy

Ach, nein!  *runs off to find something happy to read*

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

I completely understand,

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

! I had to go read several happy fics after I wrote this. Thanks so much for the review!

pookah

I think this was very well written.  You really packed a lot into a short piece.  Poor Severus, Has he imagined all those other student crushes?  or only the one that matters, the one he requited? 

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

I think that as Severus is the youngest teacher on staff (and well we find him to be so attractive...) that some students are bound to have a crush on him. But I think that he was truly in love with Hermione-- he was attracted to her both intellectually and sexually-- and so he imagined things that weren't there. And I think he just wanted to be loved so badly by someone he cared for that he saw manifestations of love where there were none. Poor Severus! And thanks so much for the review, I am so glad you liked it! (sorry about this long response, I'm at work tonight and incredibly bored!)

MollysSister

Oh my goodness! There is something not right in Snape's head. I feel sorry for the guy!

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

you know, that is exactly what I was thinking as I wrote this! He just wants to be loved, poor Severus *sniff* Thanks for reviewing!

Poor Severus.  Evil, evil plot bunny! Nice for an early effort! I enjoyed it!

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

grrr, evil plot bunny indeed, it gave me no rest! Thanks for the review, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Aww...poor Severus. Great story plot, I wish they would have actually gotten together though. Wonderful writing. ~Jen

Response from kizzy7 (Author of In the Dark)

*evil grin* Thanks! This was one of the first fanfics I ever wrote, and I am rather fond of it!
