Just another wayward copywriter chewed up and spit out from the merciless world of advertising. Oh, and my writing for the most part centers around a fabulously snarky, drop-dead sexy dark wizard. He's my not-so-secret obsession.

Beautiful, poignant... so sad but so very dignified and fitting for our beloved Severus; love the description and imagery - breathtaking and lovely - thank you!

This proved to be a compelling writing exercise as I normally don't write Severus from an angst point of view. It's nice to see that this story is warmly accepted by my peers. Thank you for taking the time to review. :)
Beautifully written, tender, poignant and utterly canon. I love your writing style, you always have me transfixed from the first sentence.
Response from rosewood (Author of A Final Redemption)
Providing Severus with a form of closure during his final moments was something I've always wanted to attempt. This is actually one of those rare times where I purposely tried to remain canon. Thank you for your kind words. It means alot coming from a fellow Snapette. :)
Nice to see her eventual forgiveness.
Response from rosewood (Author of A Final Redemption)
Lily's inability to extend forgiveness to one of her longest, dearest friends was a character flaw I had a difficult time accepting. This little story allows both Severus and Lily a form of closure. Thank you for the review. :)
Lovely, just lovely....

Thank you very much. I'm glad you enjoyed this little story.
While I love the stories of Snape and his relationships with other women, stories of him finding happiness in life this story is more fitting of his character. He would never have loved anyone else, even if given the chance. He was devoted to the point of obsession with Lily. Perhaps if he had not lost her to his own mistakes it may have been different but this is Rowling's Snape. Nice Job!

One of the things I've been wanting to do for awhile is explore a form of closure for Severus during his last moments. It's warming to know that has come across and is well received. Thank you for your kind review.
Haunting and lovely. It's an amazingly good description of their relationship for so few words.

Thank you for your kind review. I'm glad you enjoyed this little story.
I have never been able to understand how Lily could cut Severus off, all because of one word spoken in a moment of great stress. Not only did she cut Severus off, she then took up with the very person who had tortured her friend. Sorry I seem to have started to rant
. Your story gives Severus peace and comfort, that is all that counts.
