Oh gawds! Loved it to pieces!  Was funny and so fun reading each chapter.  Thank you for sharing. :)

loved the story, especially the parts that made me giggle. I'm still not sure that I figured it what the missing spell ingredient was to bring Severus back though, love? something , else? ill just chalk it up to reading this late at night/early in the morning. ;)

'Riddle's wrinkly sac!'

Yes, I do feel reading this your love and joy in writing it--every wonderful word of it--thank you again for another masterpiece in celebrating love and life!

Can't wait for your next one!!! *anxiously waiting for a certain sequel* Thank you again for all of your detailed depth & lore intertwined with rebirth & yearning & humour & love and... yadda, yadda ;-) xxx

Oh poor Severus. Even his peaceful days of death are now outnumbered. Will he be able to spook the builders I wonder.

Super wee chapter that left me smiling.

Thanks again.

I laughed out loud when Severus opened the door to exit the Shrieking Shack and found a bizzard of snow. Then as he reentered at a run I suddenly thought of the movie Beetlejuice as it was and is one of my favourites. When spotting you mentioned this film as your inspiration for this story I admit I hooted with delight.

Poor Severus Death has bit him on the bum right enough and now he has to read a book on the subject.

Off to read the next part and even more delighted as I have found this after the story has been completed. Lucky me.

Thanks so much for writing and sharing.

I adore this type of story.

thank you great story 

I enjoyed the story very much. Thanks for sharing.

And again my dear, you have given me great cause to always look on the bright side of life..dada dada dada dadahh. And dahling you can be as evil as you like but......chicklit? I mean that's just wrong.Oh well I suppose a gal...or a guy has to make a buck. I did wonder if he'd become the wizarding equivalent of Gordon Ramsay.Nice to know also that Abe has given up the goats. Magical, wonderful story. So humourous and so well wrtten. A terrific combination. Here's to your next venture. Best wishes, love Ali xxxx.

The ritual was wonderfully intricate,  and well thought out, you Hermione did a lot of research. The next chapter can't get here soon enough. P.S. do you know that the script runs way off to the left? to read it I have to scroll to the left, as well as down, it makes it very hard to read , as I can only read half a sentence, then scroll left to read the rest then back again to the right to continue.

Those ingredients...  I laughed at so many of them.  Helluva way to just 'wing it' yeah?

Phhhhhhhhbt! You'd better have a good explanation for this, missy!  Who's going to replace that roof, now? And the sink? Do I look like a plumber to you? Your fire insurance is definitely going up. ^_^

ooo evil you lol  bring on the update poor hermione

I am completely impressed with Hermione's list of potions ingredients!   Clearly, if you can't find it at Sainsbury's superstore in Greater Edinburgh, it doesn't exist.  Reading about her clever stand-in's for the essence of Severus Snape had me howling with laughter.  Our Hermione has thought of everything—including dog biscuits dosed with knockout drops for Fluffy and Olay® Total Effects moisturizer.

The resurrection spell was filled with POWER... until it wasn't.  And when the smoke cleared on the first night of the full moon...  WHAT? 

Oooh, a cliffhanger. Weren't expecting that, right (insert multiple winks)?

No, I was not.  And you've left me with an overpowering need to find out what has happened to to both of them!  In an effort to help you post the next chapter quickly I am frantically flailing my arms and hands to clear away the smoke.  Please hurry!  I look forward to each update!Beth

Ooooh, this chapter is so wonderful--full of Snape's feelings of futility (so sullen he's reading Magical Me--poor man, er, spirit!), and then to have a vision of beauty and longing before him, out of reach but not out of mind (well, perhaps, he is out of his mind about her, gaga, which is a good thing-hehe!(--Hermione--the tension just sweeps you up and whirls you along to and through the ritual. And what a wonderful ritual, just everything: the descriptive prose, the action and observations/perceptions, and feeling it happening only to have it disperse, truly leaving everyone feeling *frustrated* (contently so, but frustrated as their hopes are dashed and we're left with them drained or worse! *nail biting time!*)... Love the details and descriptions, just simply brilliant, yummy rich goodness. Thank you for all of the wonderful indepth research intertwined in this plot: it's just perfect and fascinating, C! More, more, more!

Just adore all of the detailed references as well as all of the scrumptious, juicy banter!  She would surely suffer a conniption... or choke on her shortbread. HA! Severus' revelation to Hermione's wickedly clever ways is just so wonderful, C! I've always been enchanted by your uncanny, keen sense of humour and luscious style--and am still suspicious of what supposedly is your civilian job... 'Clairvoyant's Book of Witticism' (move over Wilde) or such could make early retirment a reality for you when so inclined--looking forward to more, more, more!

Hey, if you can't mine popular culture for ideas to write a story based on books that are popular culture, then where can you mine for ideas? And Severus might just want to exile himself when Hermione starts up with any of her ideas. ^_^

I had fun spotting all the pop culture references, I must admit when they first started talking about a resurrection spell, I thought of " Hello Again", but I'm sure Hermione will come up with something special just for Severus.

...and it read like stereo instructions.  Oh, how I hate stereo instructions....if the heart spoke too freely of a wicked past, casting too many aspersions about one's character, the dead would be deemed unworthy of eternal “life” and the gods would then toss the heart to a voracious monster as a light snack.  Oh, D'Ammit!  How very Crocodilian!  Lion!  Hippopotamus!Yay! Hermione!  Our favorite Know-It-All has the bit in her teeth now, and I hope Severus has on his best riding habit cuz I think he is in for the ride of his life!Well done, m'dear.  Beth

Luna hit the nail on the head{ as she does }. Hermione has no idea of what could happen to Severus, she thinks he will go to a place of light and peace, not the room of lost souls. Severus needs to set her straght, no matter how annoying he has been, she wouldn't wish that on him.

Hmmmm, no more tricks or voyeurism, is it? What about serenading her in his cinnamon infused chocolate voice? ^_^

Luna's spirit relocation ritual was delightful!  And though it didn't work as well as Hermione would have wished, I think Luna gave her biggest, bestest clue in the world:“That's good because you have a lot in common, you know. The two of you should get along swimmingly unless you kill each other. That's kind of a moot issue, isn't it?”  My thoughts exactly!  Albus' trust building exercises had me rolling in the aisles.  I had this mental picture of Ronald Regan dressed in Dumbledore's wizarding regalia pronouncing, "Aha! Trust but verify!" Thank you for such a grin-inducing chapter!  It was a great way to start my day.Beth

Even though Severus got to use his newly learned trick of turning his face green and making smoke waft from his ears, he never got close to the "juicy red boils" stage.  I wonder if he'll ever make it that far or will he and Hermione be able to reach a détente, before one or the other of them blows a gasket?

I loved it when Hermione told Snape that he deserved a BAFTA for his performance in the Shrieking Shack.  I also loved his broody response.  But the funniest part (for me) was when he very slyly lead her to understand that it was he who left the "get more brandy" message in the bathroom mirror, and that he thought she had fabulous tits.  And last, but certainly not least, the absolutely most delicious part:

“Professor, how could you violate my privacy like that? I’m offended.” “Miss Granger, how can you begrudge a dead man a peek at those fabulous tits? I used to pay dearly for such an honor.”

Will our dear Potions master be able to wriggle back into our favorite Know-It-All's good graces and once again take up residence in Hogsmeade Arms Apartments, Building One, Flat One?*howling with laughter*    I can't wait for the next chapter.Beth

Hermione - 1; Severus - 0. Next round, please. ^_^

GO! HERMIONE! that will give Severus something to think about, when he has calmed down a bit of course. 

Just saying I lovve it.But why didn't she cast a silening charm if the banging on the wall was so persistent?
