... Love my favourite werewolf as well as a certain candyfloss-haired, eccentric wizard...
The Draco/Astoria/Lucius banner was a gift to me by the one and only star_girl, and the Nagini and Severus Tale one by the lovely apisa_b
The truly unique and rare gem Juniperus made the wonderful & inspirational The Twists of Fate banner, the One Riddle More, The Verboten One and 10th Anniversary one--I am so honoured! The one and only hexgirl made the wonderful Hermione & Xeno banner for me: all of you wonderful ladies, thank you!
Reviews for A Place in Your Heart
Wow, I guessed it correctly, yay!!!! I often feel there must have been loads of ladies (including fangirls like us, of course :P) who loved Severus, but his obsession with Lily never allowed him to reciprocate or even understand their feelings towards him... *sigh*I like to think that he did understand one day, though!

Thank you so much for reading this--yes, I agree completely about Severus *sighing with you*... so sad that one who was so sensitive and capable of such feelings could not have been open and experience love with another--what he wished reciprocated from Lily because of his deep sole obsession with her hindering him... yes, step forward, us fangirls💗 Thank you again, truly appreciate it!
Very sad for both of them, it started me thinking{ always a dangerous thing} which wizard was earmarked for Andromeda, whoever it was it was probably a lucky escape for her.

Thank you so much for reading and the lovely, thoughtful review--truly appreciate it! I absolutely agree, it was probably a lucky escape for her--I can only *imagine* what being raised in that household could have been like and who she could've been forced to marry...*shudders* Thank you again!xxx

Very nicely done. The clues are there throughout and I was pretty sure I had figured out who she was. How interesting that would have been had Severus found room in his heart for her.

Thank you so much for the read and lovely feedback as always--truly appreciate it, and agree--one of the many things that I'm curious about with Severus is how selective he was... in everything, and it struck me that even if someone else was allowed in on certain levels, finding or allowing room for anyone else other than Lily deep in his heart would definitely not be... I don't know, just truly sad *sighing* poor man. And poor witch! Thank you again,

Hey, sweetheart! Thank you for the read and review! Really appreciate it!

Hey, sweetheart! Thank you for the read and review! Really appreciate it!
Interestingly, I initially had pegged it as Andromeda, but had it as a postDH piece (where he somehow survived and she had been widowed for a while) until she started talking about marrying and it was clear that they were younger. Then I jumped to one of the lesser known female professors.Very well done indeed.

Thank you so much for reading and for the feedback! Truly appreciate it! Just got goosebumps that you initially pegged it as Andromeda, and love your concept of a postDH piece (hmmn... new plot bunny)--the picture was of a dark-haired witch in a formal gown and Severus, standing apart from one another, in an almost church-like waiting room or such... Thank you again for your comments!

Much like the other reviewer, my mind raced through a list of possibilites. Very well done !!

Thank you so much for reading and the feedback! I was hoping the description of the witch allowed more than one possibility and that little by little the reader could narrow it down to a few choices. Truly appreciate your comments-- thank you, again!

Interesting. I certainly didn't expect the witch in question to be Andromeda Tonks (nee Black). A number of different witches ran through my mind at various points in the story -- Hermione, Minerva, Sinistra, even Bellatrix -- but never Andromeda. (Obviously, the wedding reception going on in the other room must be for one of Andromeda's sisters -- most likely celebrating Bellatrix's marriage to Rodolphus Lestrange.)

Thank you so much for reading and for the feedback! Truly appreciate knowing that the little scenario came across as intended--I was hoping that the description of the witch allowed several possibilities, but that little by little, it would be narrowed down to one or two--Thank you, again!

I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this piece and how it breaks my poor heart during my countless re-reads!
I had a heck of a time trying to figure out who it was, but then that made sense at the end once she's revealed. I think this is the first SS/AB story I've ever read.
Response from nagandsev (Author of A Place in Your Heart)
Thank you so much for reading! We were challenged to hold off on her identity as long as possible, so it was a real challenge for me to try not to give her away too soon, etc. Truly appreciate you taking the time to leave some feedback on a rare pair--thank you again!:-)
Wow, that was powerful and very sad. Poor Andromeda to have to play second-fiddle to a future ghost.

, thank you so much for the read and the review--I agree, poor Andromeda! And poor Sev, always disregarding potential happiness and waiting for something/someone who'd never *be* for him... arghh! Thanks again, love, really appreciate it!

Oh, how very sad for them both! Interesting take on what could have been.

Thank you so much for reading and the feedback--absolutely agree, it's so sad thinking about the possibilities Severus could have had, if he'd given himself a chance, and sorry for any maiden who might've lost her heart to him, as he gave his solely to another *sighing* Hbar, thanks again--truly appreciate it!
