Stunning.

This was incredible! I was totally transixed by the dialogue - the written and the unwritten. Fabulous! Thank you!

I don't know what to say about this story.  It was interesting, and odd, and... every adjective that I come up with seems to have a negative connotation.  Which is bad because I actually enjoyed this.  So I will just leave it at nice job.

This was a truly amazing story. I loved the entire thing. You are a wonderful author.

an extraordinary story!!!

starting from the first impression : a What could have happened if Hermione came back to the Shrieking Shack

Done in  an absolutely different way than the usual writer does.

Then the transformation of Hermione
Then the going back and forth in time and in choosing who tells the story.

Then the tormenting description of her way back to the forest, her experience.

The fear of cruel experiences after what McGonnagal has to tell.

Then the tormenting description of Hermiones way back to the forrest. now the stars are right.

then finding "it" or "him",
a flashback information about the unbelivable that must have happened at the Shrieking Shack.

And then discovering that the one knows that the other knows that each one feels what the other one feels.

And not being sure did he really just call for his blood?
or not just a little for her as well?

how else one could explain the "flaming owls"?

I am soo fascinated about your story.
This is real first class.

Congrats!! to you!

fascinating and very different, really enjoyed both the premise and the execution

What a novel story. A very good alternate ending to what might have happened to Severus. I think they are going to have an interesting relationship what with being able to read each other's thoughts. Great story!

This was utterly gorgeous.  Sumptuous.  A feast of words and emotions.  I love what you did with the prompt, and also with the characterizations.  The description of Severus' home in the Forest reminded me of Frank Lloyd Wright's "Fallingwater", with the organic blending into the surroundings and the stream.  So much to take in, and I find I can't adequately give the review that this is worth!  I loved it!

Wow. This was confusing and amazing. Will there be more? I'm fascinated by where this could go.

wow, just wow.  brilliant.  thank you.

Wow, this was absolutely amazing! Really brilliant story that had me confused and intrigued the whole time :) I loved the flow of it as well-- the back and forth, revealing little by little of what happened between Hermione and Severus and what they've become. Simply incredible.

Anyways, thanks for writing, I really enjoyed this rather unique tale!!

That was a one-shot? Wow. Eerie and very cool.

I have read this story 4 times through in the last 24 hrs. It has stirred some emotion that I couldn't explain. I felt addicted to the characters. It is errie and erotic or is it romantic? It is frightening and sweet at the same time. 

I wish you would explain more. 
"I would have written, but what to say? How to contain the force of what I have become, what I always could have been,...." 
I am captivated by this line and I wish you would explain more. What is the force of what he has become and could have been?  

I'm dying to read Hermione's field notes on this meeting with the cora. How long before she accepts what he is offering her?  

I don't know if you will even read this reveiw. This story is better than the average fan fiction. I would give it 6 stars if I could.  It can be so much more. Have you deserted it, I wonder?

That was absolutely fabulous! You are genius! I know this story was written some time ago, but I beg you for a sequel where Hermione returns with long hair. This story is amazing and I long for it to continue to it's logical conclusion. Although, since I could have never been clever enough to imagined this, I may not know what the logical conclusion should be. Please enlighten us. Please. I haven't read any other reviews but I saw you had 12 reviews and 12 people had made this story a favorite. I'm sure other's have asked for more before me.  Maybe there is a sequel that I have yet to find.
