Hello There! My name is Karen and I live right outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Way back in 2006 when we needed to put "Half-Blood Prince" spoilers on our fics... when DH didn't even exist... I created my profile here on The Petulant Poetess.
Falling in love with the SS/HG Ship changed my life and allowed me to be in a position to save the site from extinction in 2019. I'm so grateful to be here and to continue to see the wonderful fic here live on for as long as possible.

I am sorry for your loss!! What an inspiration your Grandma must be for you! I still miss both of mine everyday. Grief never really leaves us,but it will become softer and sweeter when the good memories take over, I promise!!! I love Nickleback and am so pleased to see one of thier songs used as a song fic.!! I have always thought that "Far Away" and "Savin Me" really do capture Severus!!! Wonderfully done!! Hugs~dee

Hi deedee! Thank you so much for this review... I know it's been ummmm 7 years? But I'm still happy to see that you took the time to read this tale. It's now been 12 years since my grandmother left us and I still miss her every day. You're right, the good memories really do take over. It's so awesome to meet another Nickelback fan! *High Fives* They're so much fun! My first fic ever was actually because of hearing Savin' Me on the radio. I had to pull over because of the mental images! Again, thank you so much for your time and participation in this fandom.Much Love ~ Brena
oh geezz this made me cry!! My ex used this song when we broke up! It is oddly fitting though! Great story!
That was really sweet!

Hey Kimbee73! Thank you so much! :-)
Ooooh! Shiny! I'm not a big fan of Nickelback's music but I liked the ideas you put into this story. Disney Prince, indeed. *snort* The only problem I have is that you don't explain how exactly did Dumbledore survive and where was he hiding?

~ Thank you so much for the review.To answer your question, I didn't actually want to focus on what Dumbles was up to. He's a master of having his own agenda and I didn't question his wanting to still be alive. The driving force and focus of the story was Severus and Hermione. Their building relationship and getting them back together with a nice happy ending was really my focus. Maybe if I had been attempting a multi-chaptered fic I would have explored Albus' situation a little more. I'm sorry to have left you with so many questions. Much Love ~ Brena

! Thank you so much for the wonderful review! I actually teared up when I wrote the ending myself. LOL. It completely took me by surprise, honestly. I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Much Love ~ Brena
I was crying as I finished reading, and I'm delighted that you finally found it with you to complete it. I'm sure your grandmother would be honored to have such a beautiful story dedicated to her.

Hey, Honey! Thank you so much for the wonderful review! I actually shed a few tears as I was penning the ending too! :-) My grandmother raised me on Disney movies, honestly. So when the ending finally started forming and it went the way it did it just felt like she was helping me. She never knew I was a writer, but I think she does now. ;-) I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Much Love ~ Brena
lovely

Thanks Feisanna! I'm glad you enjoyed it. *hugs*
What a nice story! It made me a little teary in both a happy and sad sort of way. There is no way she can doubt how much she means to him for him to have put himself out there like that, just for her. I liked her working out the arithmancy equations to prove the date and time. They probably really didn't amount to anything, but noone is going to question her work. Or, knowing her, she really did work out a proper equation... know it all! I liked that explanation as well. What a sweet little tale. I'm so glad you were able to find inspiration to finish this. Your grandmother would be proud to have such a nice dedication, I'm sure.

! Thank you so much for the very lovely and thoughtful review. Writing this story was so much fun, and bittersweet in the end. I pulled out a tablet at work and started writing and the words just fell out of me and when I wrote the last line I was crying. It was like I was being guided along. Anyways, thank you so much for your very kind words. Much Love ~ Brena
