Reviews for Journey to Redemption
Awww. I enjoyed this, and I liked the nice hopeful ending.I'm laughing a little at poor Hermione for that "because you like me", but it was very cute, and at least it expressed what she was trying to say and got her that kiss.It was nice to see Hermione questioning the crusade and trying to get Severus to think about why he was doing it--and nice to see Severus questioning back.I also enjoyed the emergency dress shopping and all Hermione's aunts flirting with Severus. Thanks for sharing. ^_^
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thank you for your thoughtful review (and the note on the typo). I worried a little about that 'like me' thing, but I'm glad it was cute. The kiss was important to me, and I'm glad you liked the chapter so much.
Nicely done.
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thank you! I knew the competition would be tough.
*curling toes* That's so cute an ending. I love it.
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Wow, toe curling. Thanks!
Yippie! This was a great story. I really liked the ending!
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)

This has been such a wonderful story to follow, it is almost sad to see it ended, though I did love how it ended:-))Brilliant work!!!
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
I kind of felt the same way, too. I wished I had a few thousand more words to tell all about what happened, but I'm glad you liked what I ended up with!
That was a perfect, sweet ending to an uplifting story. Well done.
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thank you so much for your kind words.
I can imagine the aunt flirting and Severus rising to the occasion. :)
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Yay! Thanks. I had fun imagining that, too.
Oh wow... I totally loved the last little segment! Well done! I have tears in my eyes!
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thanks so much. Though I'm not great at them, I love happy endings.
Aw, that was lovely, Merrin. I really liked the last part, not just because of the kissies and stuff, but I liked Severus telling Hermione that she needed to do things for herself too.
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thanks. I really wanted the conversation to lead to the kissies; so glad it worked for you!
Oh, what a lovely ending. And despite the fact that we don't know exactly how their relationship will go, or how well they will work together, or if their days of constantly helping others is over, the story came to a nice close and I am not left wanting more. Thanks for such a nice story.
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)

I like the way this worked out. The conversation about the dining room is perfect. This way it gave them a sort of segway to talk about their feelings for each other and they needed it.
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thank you. You were inspirational in so many ways.
A lovely end to a terrific story. Well done!
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thank you so much!
That was a lovely ending.
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thank you so very much. You made me smile today.
A good ending in that it recognizes sarcasm has its price and a new-leaf can have positive results.
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Very well said. I'm glad to see you got the idea of what I was trying to say.
This was a fabulous chapter.
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thanks so much. When you've read them all, I hope you go vote in the LJ poll:http://community.livejournal.com/petulantpoetess/2532.html
Ah, you really made good use of the brewing. I like how he got all flusterd by watching her.Poor Severus needs more time to getting used to friendly interaction with other people :-)
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it! Brewing is hard work, and this was a pretty steamy potion.Severus is getting there, but old habits die hard.
A Muggle wedding?!?! Oh, my. I would pay good money to see Severus at a Muggle wedding. The Lovegood's printing press is a piece of cake next to that! I can't wait to see how Neville's parents react to the potion. Severus has become quite a Mr. Fix-It!
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
He sure is!
At this rate he'll be known as Saint Snape!
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Saint Snape? There's a plot bunny in there...
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Saint Snape? There's a plot bunny in there...
I'm sure he worries for nothing. This wedding will be a great party and maybe he'll get to kiss her...
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
He's getting pretty darn hopeful at this point.
I love this Severus, witty, but circumspect. It's a welcome change after slogging thru the passages of groping and fondling in the other stories.
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thanks! He's a little restrained here, isn't he?
well, well, well, seems like things are developing nicely for our Severus and Hermione, aren't they? Nicely done.
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thank you!
Very cute chapter, a nice continuation of the story and some very fun dialogue between Severus and Hermione.
Response from Mars1 (Author of Journey to Redemption)
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter. Thank you for the review. :)
