What a great story! I liked the fact that your moments of indecision or rejection were minor and no one was wearing a hair shirt and suffering needlessly. Severus sure came through for Hermione. What a guy :D

*applauds* Standing ovation, Subversa! I loved absolutely everything about this story. Thank you so much for sharing your incredible talent with us. I have to tell you, I started reading fanfic about right when you first started posting this story, and I hold you almost single-handily responsible for my sshg obsession now. Not that I am complaining though! No, thank you for allowing me to see the light!! This story--especially this ending-- was perfect. You gave Severus AND Hermione the happy ending they both deserve, and I loved every minute of it. Will read this story over and over again. Thank you!!!

That was a beautiful story.  Snape finally has everything he deserves, love, appreciation and freedom.  Thank you for a wonderful reading experience.

Sheer Brilliance!

that was so beautifully written.  thanks so much for this lovely update.

Subversa, it is nothing but my implicit trust in your authoring abilities that keeps this feeling of panic and uncertainty from consuming me. I can only hope that you'll not be too long in updating. This story is amazing and I have sort of grown attached to this one in particular. Thanks for being amazing :o)Sue.

Oh! Oh! Oh!Such a significant place to end a chapter! I could call you evil, but I believe it's cause you're part genius (I'm hoping honest flattery will get the next chapter up quicker ;p)I look forward to the next chapter!

oooh, the plot thickens!!  Can't wait to read what happens with Krum!!!

Wow. Excellent. Nothing more to be said... *stands to applaud*

Aww, what a wonderful end to this delightful story. You have taken me on one hell of an emotional rollercoaster, and I would gladly take it again any time.

Squeeeeee! I meant to keep up to date with this, but I got so sick over the weekend I was unable to! I loved this story and this ending! Great job as always and keep up the amazing work!

What a great ending.....I do not have the words to tell you how wonderfully written this story is.....thank you thank you thank you for this wonderful wonderful gift!!!!

I do hope that he decides to be with her since they make such a perfect couple.

That is curious... the Vinculum ending up with Hermione.

What a way to take out Voldie! Great job!

I would like to thank you for sharing this wonderful story with us.  I also cannot believe you don't write anything other than fanfiction because I would definitely stand in line for one of your novels.From beginning to end this story was simply... perfect!  And I loved the last bit with Madame Prince, it brought tears to my eyes.  Beautiful!Cheers,Stef 

Your story never ceases to amaze me or keep me on the edge of my seat.

Goodness, Sev certainly has a sweet side. I hope that he lives through the final battle to be with Hermione.

They both went through a horrid ordeal, now I only hope that they will recover completely.

Wow, what an awesome fight scene! My bet is that Morgen will be in for it very soon.

Ah, this was wonderful. At first I couldn't stand to read the two chapters where they were apart, so I just skimmed them. Then after reading the final chapter, I went back and read them all together. A perfect ending. Thank you!
