I hope you will finish this someday.  I have put you in my favourites so if you begin to write again, I will be advised.  This is such a promising beginning!

Thanks for sharing this with us.

-Wahoo

Oh for joy! You have started an enthralling story here, wonderful post DH possible H/C fic. Its fantastic with all the characters you have included, the imagery you are utilizing and the scope this is capable of is so exciting! GREAT work so far, keep up!

Oh, this is wonderful!  Very mysterious and well-written.  I'm anxious to see how it unfolds.

Interesting chapter, I can't wait to see more.

This is a very promising start! 

Wow. That was intense. I'm dying to know the rest of this story. You have to keep writing this, or be responsible for the mess on my monitor when my head explodes! ;P

Hmmmm, the mysterious plot is thickening...and becoming more mysterious.  Great chapter!  I loved the interactions as Grimmauld Place.  I can't wait for more.

Poor Snape, still alive but having to keep reliving the murder of Dumbledore... I'm enjoying the story, and looking forward to more.

This is really good. What afflicts Severus? Please post again soon....

A lot is expected of Hermione if she is to find a cure for Snape that has baffled even the Department of Mysteries. Is she really that smart or is it the fact that she is able to think differently than wizard kind?

Excellent chapter.  Looking forward, as always, to more.

A very promicing beginning...

This is VERY interesting! Looking forward to what you have for us to read in the next chapters.

With the good, comes the bad. Found some errors that you might like to correct.

You wrote: A pristine envelope now rested on top of Ariana’s grave. The witch eyed the note, mouth twisted into a moue. In spindly handwriting, teasingly familiar, the envelope read: To Miss Hermione Jean Granger. [Please note that Hermione's middle name is JANE, not Jean.]You wrote: When I left you a copy of “The Tales of Beetle the Bard” in my will, [Note also, the title of this book is "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" , not BEETLE.You wrote: “Incidentally, should you try to tell anyone unrelated to what is happening here about me of my department, you will find that you are suddenly at a loss for words.” [Possible incorrect word ... 'what is happening here about me OR my department...']You wrote: There were so many things that no one had every know about him, things Hermione was sure that no one even thought to wonder about: [Typos: 'that no one had EVER KNOWN about him ...']

I really liked this chapter. I've been avoiding fanfiction related to DH because I thought I didn't need to be more depressed. I really have no need to see more of Severus Snape's death, not even his thoughts or whatever. With that mind I approached this story quite relunctant. Well, I'm happy to see that you're doing a great job. I like the new turn and I'm even happier to know you chose to ignore the Epilogue of the book.

I'm hoping to see a new chapter soon!

Regards,

What a brilliant start, I'm hooked already!

This is such an intriguing first chapter!  Of course Dumbledore is still his puppetmaster self, even after death...but perhaps this time it can actually work to Severus' benefit, hmm?  I can't wait to see where this is going.

A very intriguing introduction -- I look forward to reading more!

Oh boy!!!! this sounds really intresting. I  love Severus and can"t wait to see the challenges that face Hermione. , and I do believe that Albus is truly a meddler. Looking forward to more.... Barb

What ever would we do with out some one filling in the holes left at the end of the final book? This seems to fit right in where I was saying the there where still unexplained things left out. Well until next update. Bill

Nah, Dumbledore will never stop popping here and there, will he? So typical, nasty old bugger! But then, after DH, I couldn't believe he was using Severus merely as a tool for his own means, so your story comes as a balm to all my wounds and shattered hopes! Bet her task is to patch him up and perhaps aid him in returning to wizarding society... or maybe there are still some evil Death Eaters doing their best to finish him off,eh? Oh, but I cannot wait to see next chapter!!

Thank you so much for posting this, I've got post-DH syndrome, feeling inexplicable urge to read AU! Long live Severus Snape! ;) 

Fabulous beginning! After all the hoopla I'm happy to see writers continuing on. Thank you. 

Ohh!  Nice tease and set up for whatever comes next.  I'm looking forward to seeing whatever it is you have planned.  Write on!

Great beginning and a terrific final line of dialogue for the first chapter. Can't wait to see where this goes.

My curiosity is piqued. I hope to see more of this soon. I am craving post-DH fanfiction like a junkie, and this is just to my taste. Because now you've got me wondering: just what the hell is Dumbledore up to this time?

Hee. I can't wait for more!

Very intriguing beginning, can't wait to read more.
