Mmmmm, it seems that Hermiones frends ''input'' has been doing more harm than good, no wonder she has been so confused. Now that Severus is awake he will be able to lead her home.

OK, I am so confused. So, Harry is alive and Ron is alive? I thought he was dead. I hope you update soon -- this is a fascinating story.

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

Yes, they are alive. Hermione's been dreaming, and her dreams have been crazy and muddled. :) The story is complete. Sorry about that. I left the pieces for the readers to put together. With Snape awake now, I'd like to think that he'll take over and have her cared for properly so that she, like he, can wake from her living hell.

good story.  But i feel like it's incomplete.What happens to Hermione?  Can she recover? 

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

Well, considering Snape woke up, who didn't have Harry sitting there with him and interfering with his recovery, it's safe to say he will take over Hermione's care and help her through. Or so that's how I see it. I've left that up to the reader. :) One day, I may do a Snape's pov with something more. Not sure that I have time now. Cheers and thanks.

That was really good, but I have to say it was one of the most bizarre and confusing stories I've read in quite some time...and I'm still not sure if I got it :) 

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

Grin! Some people told me the same thing. I'm happy you enjoyed it, and it was meant to leave you scratching your head in some places. :) Cheers!

awwww how sweet, pretty please, with a personal Snape thrown in, update. Please???

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

Thank you. The story is done for now, but I might add to it later.

So I finally got around to reading this.  (I kept the e-mail notice in my inbox until I could.)

I absolutely love this ending.  It's amazing how your mind works and comes up with this stuff.  Brilliant.  

Maybe it isn't quite a happy ending (yet), but it's a hopeful ending. 

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

:) Thanks, NSS, I appreciate the comments.

Interesting story. Lots of different perceptions going on. Maybe now that Severus is awake, he'll be the one to talk to her. Maybe that will get her out of it. Who knows. Thanks!

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

I think Snape will take charge and see to her recovery perosnally. :)

wizardrowling

well well,I must admit that you did catch me off guard and manage to round up everything pretty nicely.The ending however, did seem to be the "easy way out" (perhaps it was the only way out...). What I mean is that it could have explained anything..........That said, the story was very, very well executed in its attempts to balance clarity and confusion, and I did very much enjoy it.

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

Yeah, I tried to have it to where people could interpret their own reasons for things. Teehee. Easy way for me indeed. lol  I'm happy you liked it. Thank you.

Wow, so though-provocative. Thanks for the last chapter. Wow.... I'll be thinking about this for a while. Well done :)

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

Glad you liked it. Thank you for reading. :)

That was so, so, so, so GREAT!  You were totally on my favorite authors list before this, but - Wow!  Just Wow.

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

Kewl! I'm glad you liked it. I'd wanted to try something different. :)

A very diffferent and interesting tale. You had me quite worried for a while there. I cannot help wondering what Snape's "dreams" have been like. Were they the same or has he been some different version of hell? You will have me thinking for a while on that... 

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

I was thinking of writing a companion story, but I wasn't certain people would be up for it. I may do so when I have some time. Thank you for reading, doll.

Leave it to Ron to set everything back with his big mouth. I actually don't like the premise of the story (sorry, but it's too much like my job), but the lovely way you're telling it makes me keep reading.

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

Yep, him and his big mouth. LOL Harry's not much help either. Ah, no problem. It's not everyone's cup of tea. :)

I really enjoyed this:  it was very unique and original.  The end makes a lot of sense, too, but I never would have guessed it from the first three installments.  Excellent job!

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

Thank you for reading. I'm happ you liked it! :) I tried to keep it twisty and surprising.

pottermania

lovely story... my interpretation is a bit dark. i think hermione had to let go of her life for the hex to break on snape...  the third chapter ends at hermione finally letting herself fall completely freely........ and right after that snape wakes up.... the hex had them both in its bind till one let go ........

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

That's a definitely good take on it, and it's a bit different than what others have come up with. :)

excellent story.  thanks

Aw, poor Hermione and the hex. Everything is much more clearer now - and my interpretation has a wonderful Snape/Hermione ending. And Harry was such a good friend.:-)Great story.

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

Thank you very much (agrees with happy ending).

Whoa.  I'm so 'duh, duh' when it comes to figuring out mysteries - and this was a cracking good one!  Very well done!!!  Now I have to go back and re-read from the beginning to see what I missed...

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

Thank you so much for reading! I appreciate it.

I enjoyed this chapter.  It shed a bit of like - much like the light Pomphrey shed on Snape's unconcious form.

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

Thanks for the comments. I'd hoped it would make things clearer for readers. :)

Response from DeeMichelle (Reviewer)

don't you wish I could spell?  :-)like=light ... I'm sure you knew that though.*sigh*

I was way off the track, but this is so amazing.  I really am enjoying it.  Is there more coming? 

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Dazed Detachment)

~grin~ No, I hadn't planned on any more. Not right now anyway. Thank you.

That senario was not one that even occurred to me. A hex!  I feel so dumb. Excellent story.
