Really nice work.  I like how you've made Lily's memories enhance Snape's even as they contrast and contradict.  For a while I wondered where you were going with it all, so the ending with Luna really tied in with the beginning and wrapped it up nicely :)

that was lovely and sad. i have always thought that luna understood him more than anyone else - except maybe hermione (when she wasn't telling him to study!)

It's rare to see such a deep, powerful, emotional story for Harry, let alone such a vivid and detailed portrait of the Lily/Severus relationship ... well done. And thank you for sharing it with us.

You did such a remarkable job showing us a real person - the real Lily. This girl was well rounded, faults and flights, naughty and kind. Really a nice honest look at her life and her realionship with Severus. I also found it so fitting that Harry ran into (no pun intended) Luna. She was the perfect friend to help him put what he'd seen into perspective. I really enjoyed this. Thank you.
