I do hope that they do have a little girl. Joy Snape, I love the sound of that.

Aw i'm sad this is over. That letter was beautiful.  You haveto, have to, have to write a sequel. fluffy is good.  because now i want to know the name. you evil woman you!  congratulations on an excellent story. i look forward to more out of you.

Great story. I for one would love to see a sequel or even just a couple more chapters added to this just to wrap everything up a little more. (As you said this is more of a beginning than an ending.)

What a lovely, lovely story - I was practically crying while reading Severus' letter. A sequel would be most welcome, of course!

You must make a sequel, but MUST make a sequel... here allow me to hipnotize you:  "You will make a sequel, you will make a sequel. Fluff is excellent, you will make a sequel."

Downright begging, maybe... Please, please make a sequel. Oh, please, PLEEAASEE make a sequel.

Shall I fawn upon you extravagant (but well deserved) praise, bow down before you, all in the name of a sequel?

Seriously I really liked the story, very well done. Oh, and have I mentioned that I'm voting for a sequel.

What a sweet ending!!! I've really enjoyed this story, and I especially like the wry humor you write for Severus. I would LOVE to read a sequel!!!  Thank you very much for sharing your story with us!

I'd love a fluffy sequel.  Too much angst these days, fluff is welcome. 

I LOVED IT!! Yay!! of course we all know what he'd name her!! A short sequel would be great to read, 95% fluffy makes me intrigued by the other 5%.

SEQUEL SEQUEL SEQUEL.... I want to know boy or girl? do they get married? I NEED TO KNOW. So if nothing else you can write the sequel just for me

Fluff is good!  Fluff is WONDERFUL!  Please keep writing? I'm begging!

Joy! Her name would be Joy! What a lovely, perfect ending. I absolutely adored Severus' atypical breakfast behavior and the shocked confusion of his colleagues. I will miss this story immensely, but you couldn't have wrapped it up in a more elegant fashion. Bravo!

Absolutely!  We've got to see the bundle of joy when it (she?) is born! 
I really enjoyed this story and would love to see more from you!

Although I don't believe that I've left any reviews for this story until now -- a grievous lapse for which I am now attempting to make amends -- I've enjoyed it very much, and this chapter is no exception.  I rather like the fact that Severus gave her an inkwell -- I agree with his assessment that it suits her more than a common-or-garden piece of jewelry, especially for a bookwormish know-it-all such as she.  (I'm much the same way -- I've sometimes said that my idea of bling comes in the form of kilobites rather than karats).  Am I right in supposing that Severus's increased appetite hints at the possibility of a sympathetic pregnancy (now that would definitely be something to see!) -- and that if he and Hermione do have a daughter, she will be christened Euterpe in honor of the woman who helped bring them together?

I'm sorry I haven't reviewed before.  I loved this story, and waited anxiously for each chapter. 

Go for the sequel, please!!!  Please, please please!

Again, I loved it.  Great job!

*bawls*

Oh, that letter from Severus to Hermione ... guh, I turned into a crying mass of goo; it was so so beautiful!  And I loved reading Severus' point of view in this chapter!  I was a quivering mass of teary humanity as I read through it.  I loved the way he was playing with the staff at the end, and of course, I have an idea what the child's name should be if it were a girl - you made it very obvious!

May I join my voice in the growing chorus of sequel requesters?  This was a lovely lovely story, one that I am sure I will return to again and again in the future.  Thank you for sharing such a gift of a story with us!

I love this!! Beautiful happy ending. Please, a sequel - how about twins? a boy and a girl....

*Insert girly squealing* Sequel? When can you start? I absolutely loved Severus enjoying the chance to shock his colleagues senseless, Minerva's reaction was particularly hilarious. And Madam Pince is right, Hermione definitely needed a man capable of challenging her intellectually ... I never could see her marriage with Ron, realistically, being very happy or lasting very long. Not with Ron's Quidditch obsession and complete lack of interest in all things academic. Not to mention his obviously roving eye, from Fleur to Rosmerta and Lavender. I loved the ending and I'll be keeping an eye out for that sequel!!! *Squee!!!*

I would love a sequel, just because I enjoyed this story so much.  That was lovely. 

Do I think a sequel is necessary? HELL YES I DO!!! Chain thyself to your keyboard and churn it out!

This was a wonderful romp my dear. Just enough angst with out going down to deep. I am a happy little fan girl.

)))toddles off to favorite you so I can stalk find you in the future.

Sequel! Sequel! Sequel

That was a lovely ending using Severus' perspective, and somehow just right, especially as he contemplates what their future first-year would look like. Of course I'd like to see your take on that, too, even if it's only a one-shot! In the meantime, thank you for this enchanting story.

Bring on the fluff!! I'm raedy to read.

Truly lovely and some really nice humour in this last bit. =] 

Will miss this terribly, you must swear to post another little something soon!

Ah, well I must guiltily admit that I don't believe I've left a review up to this point. However, I have thoroughly enjoyed every word and eagerly awaited each update. A sequel would be lovely. THANK YOU!!!

Very romantic letter! I enjoyed every single chapter of Bundle of Joy. I'd ♥ reading a sequel about Severus' child. Thank you very much!

Please do make it a girl.  He seems the type that needs a little girl to adore.
