I am a grateful fan of Ms. Rowling and of her overwhelming Byronic Character, Severus Snape! Please check out the first chapters of each fic (except for "How Can I Tell You," which is on Chapter 2) to see pictures of the Heroines.
Admins' Note: Livvy6 died suddenly on February 22, 2012, leaving behind her husband, six-year-old daughter, and seventeen stories well-loved by the TPP community. All who knew her—including those in Harry Potter fandom and all of us, here—are richer for having known her.
Requiescat in pace, Livvy. Always.
Reviews for A Change is Going to Come
Oh what a roller coaster you've woven. I really like how you've developed the 70's and the horrible conditions that the rise of the war brought. Hermione's beating was tough, but then she did slap him. Severus is so heartbreaking in this because we know what he becomes... or is that changing? Very well written and I'm hooked.

We shall see... more to be revealed. I still haven't forgetting the chapter I'm dedicated to you! :) It will not be too long now.Thanks!Livvy
I am always so happy when I see a new chapter of this story. It is so engrossing! I love what you have done with it, it is the most original time traveling story I have read about our favorite couple. Keep up the good work, cannot wait for the next update!
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Thank you so much! I hope you keep on enjoying it!Livvy
I'm surprised Dumbledore let her go, is he keeping tabs? I'm looking forward to the next chapter, I assume Halloween will be near?
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Next chapter will be her return which takes place one month after the 1st chapter. She will return on October 31, 1981 in the middle of the night after Voldemort has disappeared.Thanks!Livvy
I ask not so much for lemons, though they can be very good, but for more story. I want to see how this unfolds. Great story!
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Thanks! It will be time for Severus and Hermione to get on with their life now that Voldemort is gone (temporarily). But the Order memebrs that survived will have something to say about her sudden return.Thanks!Livvy
Oh, a lovely, yet horrifying chapter. Ironic how the two generally coincide. Oh, Severus is still Severus. It's funny how I love him even when he gets all possessive and cranky. Poor Hermione. I enjoyed, again, seeing the first chapter explained a bit more. Nice work. I'm on the edge of my seat...
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Thanks! I can't wait for y'all to read the next chappie! Fianlly, lemons!Livvy
and it won't be any too soon! faboo update. thanks so much
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Thanks! Hope you enjoy it :)Livvy
Oh dear. This is getting quite dramatic.I only just got to read this now -- somehow the email notification seemed to have slipped by me;pThe Potter's and Evan's dead?Lily using James? To what end? To make Hermione jealous?I can't wait for more!A~~
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
They are together, for whatever reason. Hermione will learn more later down the road. The next chapter will bring every to a head.Thanks!Livvy
Oh, I felt shivers at Dumbledore's warning to Hermione. And Sverus' report really showed how the war is escualting...The forced 'tower-in' didn't seem so bad, but Remus' explanation of the Evan's death and the POtter's was sad. good chapter, hon.
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Thanks! Glad you liked it!Livvy
The power Voldemort has and is using to pull Severus in is quite scary. I'm kind of sad to see what will happen soon. Of course, it will be nice to have all of the answers to the many questions from the first chapter.
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Yes, I hope it will live up to the build-up and not be just - "How could you leave it tlike that?" or "How is this mess going to get fixed?"Thanks for reviewing,Livvy
Holy Crap, That was a shocker! That makes a lot of sense though. Sometimes when traumatic things happen to people it really pushes them in strange directions. I was so happy to hear Hermione say "Mrs. Severus Snape". It made my heart flutter! I remember the days when I would have those kinds of gushy fairy tale marriage feelings....wait I still have those feelings who am I kidding. Anyways, another amazing installment from a totally awesome author! You Rock my Sox Livvy! Much Love ~ Brena
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Thanks! I'm glad you liked the chapter. Good now that Hermione has Lily and James put together, now she can focus on more pressing matters!Thanks
Interesting direction.
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Thank you. I hope you continue to like it!Livvy
This story is a very unique twist on the whole Time-Turner fics. It's really fun watching Hermione interact with everyone, and playing such an intricate part in the first war against Voldemort. I'm curious to see how Hermione's relationship with Severus progresses, and all the other events that lead up to the first chapter.
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
I hope you like how the next chapter turns out. I can't wait for it to be validated and posted.Thanks!Livvy
Excellent detail as always - hopefully the next chapter isn't too terribly shocking...
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Me too! I hope everyone will like it or at least can't wait for the following chapter.Thanks,Livvy
Do we know who killed her parents? That is an interesting way to bring Lily and James together.
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Some Death Eaters on a mission from Voldemort-but not Severus. The Morsmordre hung over the house, so the magical community knew it hadn't been an accident.Thanks!Livvy
I can see Severus is being seduced "by the Dark side." HP has some similarities to Star Wars, yes? Hermione is going to have her hands full keeping him in the Light if they are not supposed to keep their relationship, even secretly. Lily blatantly snogging publicly reminds me of Ron and Lavender.
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
LOL! Ron and Lavender. So funny! Hermione will have to learn to let go and allow Severus to go his own way. (Look back to chapter one) The next chapter will make it all clear.Thanks!Livvy
Yet another interesting chapter. I like the way you have brought James and Lily together- It's awful under the circumstances of thier parents dying, but I have to compliment you on the idea. Look forward to the next chapter.
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
I'm looking forward to how everyone likes the next chapter as well. I'm glad you liked how I put James and Lily together.Thanks!Livvy
very creative way to deal with moldybutt's visit. terrific update. thanks so much
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Thanks! Glad you liked it!Thanks,Livvy
And the web continues to be woven. I wonder is this the visit to Hogwarts old Voldy made requesting the Dark Arts position?
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Ten points for your House! Oh, yes... and not only asking for the job, but to also plant the horcrux there in the castle!Thanks!LivvyBut no one knows about that.
I actually managed to read this update from my cell phone while on vacation. My husband kept asking me what was so important that I needed to read right away... Well this is what! What a fabulous chapter. I've been waiting to find out how Hermione handled Voldemort. And I was so very impressed with how she interacted with him. It was a very interesting conversation. I'm sooooo looking foreward to sitting down and reading the next chapter (from my actual computer) Much Love ~ Brena
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Thank you so much for being a die-hard supporter! YOU ROCK! THat is the reason I write these stories-I'm such a review junkie :) I'm glad the chapter was worth the effort. I hope you enjoy the next chapter as well!Thanks so much!Hugs and chocolate,Livvy
Lily is such a bitch in this. It makes a refreshing change. :)
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
It does, doesn't it? :)Thanks!Livvy
Severus is willingly deceiving himself about Voldermort. He would never be content to let Severus keep his hands clean, so to speak. The humane killing of Lily's parents doesn't sound like the average DE, does it.
A Change has been such a good story, I can't wait for the next chapter. Thanks for posting, I enjoyed it.
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Thank you for your compliments. Severus is teetering, and Hermione is trying to keep him grounded in reality, but a person can only do so much. The killing of Lily's parents was just a message to her that Voldemort hasn't forgotten her defiance. Very sad that.Thanks,Livvy
A very nice chapter, every one makes me more anxious for the big reveal, whatever that entails...I loved the line about Alice (Longbottom), you have a great knack for details!!!I'm looking forward to the next chapter!gab
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Thanks. Couldn't let Frank and Alice out of the picture, could I :) THey were such good, brave, and loyal people. I hope you like the next chapter... I'm prepared for Howlers ;)Thanks!Livvy
Everything is coming to a boil! I can't wait to see how you are going to interpret the attack on Halloween. I'm curious, though, about why you chose to make Lily gay. Was that just a whim or is it going to be important later? Or did you see something in the books that I missed?
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
I was just thinking how Lily is always presented in such a perfect light. She can do no wrong, always so loving and beautiful Gryffindor angel. It just came to me as a way to show how we really never can know our parents and they were actual real people before they became just "mum" and "dad."Thanks!Livvy
I'm sad Severus is starting to lean towards Voldemort... sigh. More dead parents. The reality is really sinking in. Lovely writing, as always.
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
Thanks. Yes, Severus is getting a tad confused and muddled. Livvy
This was great! I'm very intrigued as to the Lily's motivations. This is definitely not the Evans I am used to seeing in fanfic and it's very refreshing.
Can't wait to see them out of Hogwarts, but of course pace it how you need to.
Update soon!
Response from livvy6 (Author of A Change is Going to Come)
I hope you are ready for the sharp turn into left field after the next chapter... things are changing quickly now!Thanks,Livvy
