my catalyst into the world of hp fanfic was the ignominious death of severus snape by snakebite in dh. grrrrr. he deserved better, and i set off on a mission to find it! i appreciate and admire the vast and limitless creativity of all of the wonderful writers on this site and in this fandom.
accordingly, for me it's mostly about snape: ss/le, ss/hg, ss/rl are my favorite ships. i especially like happy endings for those who did not get them at the hands of jkr.
Reviews for If Only
Teenage angst, with so many possibilities for their future.
Response from kittylefish (Author of If Only)
yes! i'm glad you see it that way, too. when i write something during their school days that seem to end sadly, i am always imagining future encounters that end more pleasantly for both of them. :D
This is a lovely story. It's like standing on the edge of a cliff... firmly grounded on one very tiny piece of land with absolutely everything laid out before you, snatching your breath and thrilling you. I really enjoyed it. Thank you
Response from kittylefish (Author of If Only)
oh, what a beautiful review! so glad i was able to thrill you. :D *hugs*
fantastic, I love the idea of Remus and Severus
Response from kittylefish (Author of If Only)
so glad you enjoyed it. thanks for telling me so. if you look at my author's page, you will see that remus and severus is my favorite pairing to write. :D
Oh YES! What if Remus and Sev got together so he becomes friends with the rest of the Gryffindors, never lusts after Lily and OMG!What a worl of possibilities! Would you consider furthering this one one day?
Response from kittylefish (Author of If Only)
that would be a lovely world indeed, wouldn't it? if the muse inspires more on this story, i will write it. thanks for the review. :D
Thanks for sharing this. This pairing is one of my guilty pleasures, and I will most probably be smiling a lot today.
Response from kittylefish (Author of If Only)
hee. so happy to be enabling your enjoyment, then. :D thanks for the review.
If only, indeed. They could have been good together. I know you'll make it up to them next time :)
Response from kittylefish (Author of If Only)
hee. you know i'll make it up to them. every now and then they have to go through a bit of angst, which makes the making it up to them all the sweeter. :D though i will tell you a little secret - when i write a story like this, in my head there's always a sequel that turns out happier, lol.
It would have been a far different world, if he had simply turned around. Or if Lupin had held on just a wee bit longer... Sort of sums up their entire lifes... How sad - to be so afraid of one's own heart.
Response from kittylefish (Author of If Only)
thank you for this lovely, thoughtful review. i do see snape as afraid of his own heart. :( but of course, i spend an awful lot of my time writing stories that leave canon by the wayside in order to give them a different and happier ending together. :D
"As the herd of Gryffindors lumbers by" I can SO see that! :D
