To Be or Not to Be

The ruins of Hogwarts were bathed in the scant light of a crescent moon. And gliding through the darkness below was the imprint of a lost hero. The spirit flexed its growing permanence, feeling the unnerving sensation of swallowing boulders with its newfound form. It, or rather he—he had been a ‘he’ at one point—moved through the dewy, body-strewn grass tense with the memory of the extraordinary choice he’d been given.

Interesting chapter, I'm glad that she is staying. Maybe she will be able to clear her head when Ron and Harry leave. Tough predicament to be in for sure.
Oh that was so hot, I mean so cold.. With Ron gone they certainly have potential. I can't wait for the next update.
Response from _Levicorpus_ (Author of To Be or Not to Be)
Oh, this is so sad. :(
Beautifully written work. I am truly looking forward to the rest of the story.
Hermione and Severus are definitely caught in a heartbreaking situation. I wonder what will happen once Ron is gone. Great chapter, I look forward to more!
Enjoying this so very much, the lonely, brilliant souls finding each other. Great potential for hotness too. Thanks!
A growing friendship? Sounds like a lot more than that! ^_^
Was that little scene outside with Ron a way to punish Severus? To make him see what he's missing? And now that Ron's going to be gone, what's going to happen now?
"Girl, don't you realize -"
Oh, she realizes, Sev; She realizes!
I'm so sad for them. It's kind of like the resurrection stone. They're together... but, they're not.
Wow! Very nice. Very nice indeed. I look forward to seeing how this gets developed! Thanks for all of your work!
Interesting... I wonder how far this can go... Poor, awkward Slughorn lol. And, once again, I thought this chapter was beautifully written. Looking forward to the next chapter!
Ooooh! So hot and sexy at the end!
Oh what a good chapter, you really had me going in the end. Poor Slughorn, what he must be thinking. LOL Seems as if the hunger can perhaps be sated? Oh this should be interesting indeed.
Response from _Levicorpus_ (Author of To Be or Not to Be)
Yay! :)
Poor Neville, that certainly is one of his worst nightmares for sure. Severus coming back as a ghost to pick on him once again. LOL I have to admit I feel bad for Ron, he really does not have any clue who Hermione really is. I am enjoying the relationship between Severus and Hermione and looking forward to see what happens next. :-)

I'm glad you like it!
"Hermione, you're having a bad dream." Ummm... okay. ;)Damn Slughorn!
Response from _Levicorpus_ (Author of To Be or Not to Be)
I know! He just ruins everything.
Lovely.Sweet and mournful. It is full of hope. Hope of expanding instances of shared confidences. Thank you~

Thank you!
I love it! This is going to be an interesting friendship for sure!!! :D
Response from _Levicorpus_ (Author of To Be or Not to Be)
Yay! :)
Im glad Severus had a relationship or two in his past. Im cringing though because I expect they were with Lily look a-likes?
Response from _Levicorpus_ (Author of To Be or Not to Be)
I feel bad for making that jab at him--that he had a fetish for red heads. I think this Severus had to be not asexual and not a virgin, but he also had to have never been in real love. Obviously he wasted a lot of life on unrequited love, which is such a bleak fate for one of my favorite characters of all time (aside from a few in Downton Abbey--just got severely hooked on that one), Anyway, yes--a string of Lily look-alikes! 
What a unique premise! I am glad that ghost Snape is less hostile than the living man was. I would like him to enjoy this hard won peace if he can.
Response from _Levicorpus_ (Author of To Be or Not to Be)
I'm so glad you think that approach works! I find myself spending a good amount of time justifying why he isn't quite so nasty... but I think ghost Severus approximates his soul more than the demeanor he put on in life.
I love the descriptions that you have in here. I hope Hermione can find some way to get some rest or she'll be standing next to Severus as a ghost herself.
Response from _Levicorpus_ (Author of To Be or Not to Be)
Thank you so much! I hope the 3rd chapter arrives post haste :)
I'm really enjoying this story so far. The descriptions and sensations are beautifully illustrated, and I'm enjoying the friendship developing between Severus and Hermione. Though this relationship seems like it can only have a heartbreaking end, I'm holding out hope for happiness in between (if not a completely happy ending lol) 
. I look forward to your next chapter.
Response from _Levicorpus_ (Author of To Be or Not to Be)
I am so glad you like it! It's so flattering to hear that the descriptions are working--this was one of my main goals in writing this story. And I can assure you there will be a fair share of happiness :)
What a lovely story, looking forward to more.
Response from _Levicorpus_ (Author of To Be or Not to Be)
Thank you!
This is extremely well-written and intriguing. I really enjoy this characterization of Severus, but I am selfish and greedy-I hope there will be a way for him to come back from his ghostly form to a corporeal one so he and Hermione can truly be together!Brava for the first two fascinating chapters!

Thank you! I hope you'll stick with me after the next one... it's a little more edgy ;)
