It's been quite a while---is all well with you?I'm looking forward to more of this story;  you have a loyal and definite fan here!Please do update soon!

Am I allowed to sing praises while strategically kneeling by your feet?  I've just found this story and I love your writing.  You're witty, and wonderful!  Potentially addicting and what was I sawing. . .   I was basking in your authorship and sending you more good writing thoughts.  Anyway, write on MacDuff!

What an awesome story this is.  You are a very talented writer.  Do you keep an email list to let readers know when you update this story?  Many Thanks,Pris

Sequel news?!?!

I enjoyed this tremendously. Your story kept me up until the wee hours two nights in a row because I couldn't stop reading.
It was great to see the development of Hermione's and Severus's relationship, the growing awareness of each other, the passion and the tenderness. Right now, I'm heartbroken for both of them ~sniffs~, but I will just imagine that he did survive (he never died in my world anyway), that they did find each other again, that he did manage to reverse the effects of the potion, that Hermione forgave him and that they're now living mostly-happily-ever-after.
Wonderful story!

I love them together too.  This was an incredible chapter, possibly my favorite so far.

Wow, great chapter!  Love how he trusts her enough to let her decide how to proceed instead of taking the initiative upon himself.Looking forward to seeing what happens next!

I love how angry Hermione was, keep up the good work.

So much angst! The ending was both erotic and bittersweet. I hope she doesn't have to Obliviate herself... it seems like so many things could go wrong there! What if he dies? She'll never remember that she loved him! It's killing me! I'm loving the story... it's all coming to a head now I believe. I just hope S&H come out on top of things in the end. :)

May I just say, I am completely infatuated with this story. Having discovered it, I have spent every moment I can spare in the last 48 hours reading it, from start to here; unable to close the window without serious effort.It's truly wonderfully thought out, skillfully written and exquisitely constructed. Having not read any HG/SS for some time that really kept me hooked and excited, this story has flooded back just why I love the pairing. Just wonderful. Thank you so much for posting such a lovely fic, it honestly deserves every nomination and award given to it. :)

Your writing is just exquisite.  Sometimes I'm reading a story and think about things that might have been worded differently or done in a differnet manner.  This piece of work is always perfect.  Every moment, every emotion, every word uttered is exactly as it should be.  I've thought this to be true from the beginning, but this particular chapter just had me entranced.I think their plans are an equal mix of foolishness and brilliance.  But they don't have a lot of choices.  I like what they have come up with, but hope that most of it is for naught.  I can't possibly see how this can come out ok for them in the end.  I don't remember if you have ever let on whether or not this has a happy ending.  I no longer doubt that their relationship can survive what is coming their way, but I worry about how things will go after the war, if they live, in terms of his freedom and/or acceptance.  It gives me hope that you love S&H together, but time will tell.  Will be anxiously awaiting the next chapter, hopefully soon.  You have been spoiling us rotten lately.  Please don't stop!

There is absolutely NOTHING in this chapter that I didn't completely LOVE!But I think my favorites are him holding her hand via the caramel, and her fiery declarations of love during their "talk".  He's accepting that she loves him--really does love him (finally), and is letting himself admit the same.And I love them both for it!Thank heaven for the obliviation of Jill!  She's a loose cannon that has had me worried for a while---and we all know, with such neatly planned contingincies as they have brilliantly thought out, nothing could ever go wrong...go wrong...go wrong....(looking forward to the "more" "soon!")

Oh how glad I am that they had this time together after their talk about how to handle the future.  Finding out that Severus must kill Dumbledore was a total shock, and I can understand her horror of finding out the Headmaster is dying, and must do so at Severus' hand.I empathize with her not wanting to be Obliviated, and I hope their contingency plans hold up the worst Voldemort and his Death Eaters can muster.So, she will have the pelletized Obliviate potion for herself in the poisoner’s ring in case she is captured.  And her parents and Jill will have to be Obliviated... err, will she have to do that or will Severus help her with that?It was saddest when Severus told her about Dumbledore, but best was their lovemaking.  I hope they can make the most of the time they have left before Severus must become Dumbledore's murderer.  After that their times together may be few and far between.Thank you for this amazing chapter.  I've been wondering how it would all go down.Beth

wow!

wow, amazing.  I hope they can have a life together after moldy voldy is gone.

Between teaching four-hour classes, I get this. I love you, you know. What a lovely fluffy and smutty chapter! Of course HG would want to hex Dumbledore!! And you just addressed an issue that I am dealing with relating to a relentless plot bunny. Too funny!  I was just thinking about about fine-tuning and targeting Obliviates with sugical precision, but performed on SS. It will never see the light of day, but I can still satisfy the plot bunny!

great chapter with lots of yummy angstcan't wait for the next onekeep up the great writing

Ooh, yes. Just, guh.  Yum!

Now she knows what he has to do, and i8t makes no difference to how she feels about hi.  Must be a big relief. :)

mmm, dreamy lovliness.  Was worried you were going to obliviate her.  DON"T do it!  Understand me?  Don't!  :)  Well, it's your story... *shifts eyes*

What a wonderful chapter! It was so captivating. I can't wait for more :)

Great, fluffy chapter. I loved the part about them holding hands with the caramel. Looking forward to more.

Wow! That was amazing.

what a lovely post-lunch treat, a delightful surprise!Very good developments...

Damn! Of *course* he's going to back away. Not doing so would give us readers our jollies, and Snape simply can't allow anyone to be happy--certainly not himself.Seriously, great story. I'm really, really enjoying it, angst and all. Forget about RL and just get on with writing! heehee Rating: Fifteen stars
