Reading this story has been an exquisite pleasure. To be sure, your premise was an unusual one, but it made for a wonderful tale of love and commitment, of two souls bound for eternity, and it was a joy to read.  Bravo! I will look for more of your work. Thank you for your wonderful story telling!!!Sincerely, Beth

I love that Draco is so grown up in this story, and not the spoiled brat of old.

I'm very glad that Hermioen turned down Draco. They could have been happy together, but Draco has seen how connected she is to Severus and would have doubts.

What a great update!!! Is the story complete?

I kind of would have liked her with Draco, but I understand that is not the point of the story. 

I like Kingsley..pity he doesn't feature much as the male lead LOL

Mesuem and the portraits out of the office! Wow = change!

I really like the relationship and how she seeks him out.

I love this.  The 'domestic' details of the museum and moving the portraits are very interesting, and Hermione's developing relationship with portrait!Severus is very moving.

wonderful.  i am so loving this story.   and you, too...whoever you are!   thanks so much  and i look forward to  further developements.                                         

I really like what you have done with the place! The museum, the portrait gallery are both excellent ideas and suit Hermione's organizational skills well. I am worried about Hermione devoting her life to the school. What will Draco do with his knowledge of Severus & Hermione's friendship? I have so many questions!

Poor Hermione. It seems she is throwing all her energy and efforts into making Hogwarts a better place. At least the students are benefitting from it.

Just out of curiosity... why are Lucius and Narcissa in frames? They aren't dead so early in life, are they?

Bittersweet. :)

Explaining death to kids is always so hard. :(

Draco is a gem in here. And Ron... sigh... :(

Poo Minerva. I've always liked her

Love the friends' interactions

Such an original plot

like the smoothe transition to friendship

Another good one :)

This chapter is especially poignant.  Well done!

You know, I'm enjoying this story, but I feel that Hermione gets the short end of the stick.  Love is grand, but having that body next to you when you feel alone at night is almost as essential. 

It's great to see Hermioen surrounded by so many Slytherins... hopefully it will wear off on her!

ahh, friendship, love, albeit unrequited yet sweet all the same.  Maybe when she dies and becomes a portrait??
