I am a grateful fan of Ms. Rowling and of her overwhelming Byronic Character, Severus Snape! Please check out the first chapters of each fic (except for "How Can I Tell You," which is on Chapter 2) to see pictures of the Heroines.
Admins' Note: Livvy6 died suddenly on February 22, 2012, leaving behind her husband, six-year-old daughter, and seventeen stories well-loved by the TPP community. All who knew her—including those in Harry Potter fandom and all of us, here—are richer for having known her.
Requiescat in pace, Livvy. Always.

hmmm
Response from Lkmaide (Reviewer)
Sorry, had to think for a moment and ponder the mysteries. I don't really see it as rape as much as abuse. The detachment, his lack of attention to her yes, it could be squeakie-- but at the critical moment, he registered BABY and thats the difference, IMO. The chapter and the story would not be the same if it were all hearts and flowers. Snape is a snarky, dark, bastard most of the time and I don't think this would be OOC for him, especially in light of his early years. If I could only wrap my mind around how to right a story with him getting Lily. . . hmm good stuff here, even if dark. And as for tender love making (gagging here) just read the earlier chapters, it is all there honest. Are you in the queue yet?

I really like the interesting progression that is showing here with Severus. His obsession may be developing along with his possessive nature and that can be trouble.On a more critical note (since you asked), I liked that you showed the changes in Severus's behavior sexually, but I would've liked to read the scene where he was gentler with Diana. It was hard to read the semi-rape scene and, although the description of his reformed bedroom behavior redeemed him a bit, it might've been more effective to "show" rather than "tell" what happened between them later on. Just a thought...
Response from livvy6 (Author of Possession)
Can you elaborate on the last part, I want to make sure I understand. Do you mean how I just narrate how he asks nicely and she complies, but there is no particular scene that shows it? Is that what you mean?
I appreciate the feedback. Because I can adjust later chapters and give a more well-rounded view.
Thanks!

Response from i3luebyrd (Reviewer)
Yes, exactly. More. Sex. Please. Ha ha ha. No really, I think it would be very satisfying to get a scene where we can compare Severus's gentle behavior with the rough scene.

ROFL! Ok I'll see what I can do!

Pretty smart there Harry. But what to do able Severus' behaviour? I'm not sure its love he is feeling but she might have fallen for him. If Severus doesn't straighten up then maybe Harry would be a better option for her.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Possession)
One thing is for sure, if Severus doesn't get his act together, he just might lose her. *grins evilly and dashes off*
And that's all I'll say for now!
Thanks for continuing to review!

Oh, WOW.
I have GOT to know what happens next.
You can't leave it like this!
Talk about evil cliffie!!!!!
Response from livvy6 (Author of Possession)
Oh yes, I'm already on it! And I think it'll be a good one too! Things are definately going to get very complex-soon. I wanted to know what you thought about Snape's sexual complusion? How did that strike you? Out of Character, or maybe no or on the money? What were your thoughts?
Livvy
Response from mia madwyn (Reviewer)
Not out of character. I can see that. Now that I've had time to recover--I'm really glad that Fleur is one who sees the truth. As much fun as it is to Fleur-bash, she proved her mettle after Bill was attacked by Greyback. (I thought that was one of JKR's more lovely reveals.)
I am also quite impressed by what you did with Harry, and the conclusion he has come to. Ouch.
Things are so tense, and I am eager to know what is going to happen when she makes it clear she's not going to tolerate his behaviour.
And a bit worried.
Okay, more than a bit.

phewi thought that they were going to duel :Ptheir conflict of interests will be veery interesting both snape and potter think that it's their right to protect diana i wonder what she thinks about it

She will definately be making her feelings known about that- for sure!

This chapter was brilliant. The way the Weasleys handled the whole thing. I could see it happening just that way. I really don't think Harry and Ron could handle the truth about how Severus and Diana got together. And the A/N, man you are such a tease. Now you have to update soon Please. I'm hanging on tenderhooks waiting.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Possession)
Oh absolutely! I have the next chappie in the queue, I just hope you still continue to like it, cause it's going to get sad soon. I'm very nervous how it is going to be received. I hope I just don't get flamed too badly!
Livvy
Well, Sanpe and Dianna could have at least stayed for dinner! You are doing a great job with this. Once again, I love the characterizations you portray.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Possession)
Thanks so much for reviewing! I hope you are continuing to like the story.

I love Ginny's insights.
And this chapter may have been short, but it was worth it.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Possession)
Thanks, I couldn't resist doing the evil cliffie, as one reviwer called the last chapter.
The next chapter is going to be a difficult one, cause now we're getting into some pretty screwed up stuff. I actually can't wait to hear your opinion on it. So, please, pretty please, review for the next chappie!
Thanks,

oh boooy this chapter was... revealing- discovered a lot about diana the weasley family reacted exactly as I thought it willumm, just a question, though: wasn't Harry supposed to be with Ginny?I can't wait for the next chapter. it's definetly promising!!!
Response from livvy6 (Author of Possession)
Harry is with Ginny, it's just when it comes to Diana being Sirius' cousin, he feels an irrational need to protect her. It's going to get messy, for sure!

Oi, wowzers! So Snape couldn’t face the Weasleys? That just seems so out of character for him. I don’t see him as the back down kind of guy. It’s going to be interesting to see how everyone reacts to him now that he showed up late!
I’m looking forward to seeing what happens.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Possession)
Well, actually Diana said her "intended" was angry that she wanted to come alone to tell them her news. Snape wanted to come with her and she refused. He wasn't to show up at all, per Diana'a request, but came anyway when he felt something was going on- and he was right, Harry was on his way to kick some ass.
Hope you like the next chapter, drama, drama, drama!
Thanks for reviewing!

What's it to Harry anyway? Why is he so upset? Him I don't understand. But the rest, yeah that so sounds like the whole lot. Awesome chapter.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Possession)
Remember when Molly was talking about how they were all related, Harry focused on Diana's relation to Sirius? He started to think about how he could have that connection to Sirius again- nevermind the fact Diana never even knew Sirius- it's about Harry's need to hold on to Sirius. It of course is not rational, but Harry has never been rational where either Sirius or Snape were involved. So his "overreation" says more about his anger that is unresolved towards Snape and his need to grasp onto any and everything he can that will remind him of Sirius.
Hope that clears some of that up for you.
Thanks!

Thank you now I understand. Maybe thats what he needs, someone to look after. But I thought that someone was going to be Ginny. Oh well he always tried to save everyone, didn't he?
Response from livvy6 (Author of Possession)
Well, yes, therein lies the rub! He has his own witch and now he's going to start overstepping his boundaries with Snape's witch. And that is not going to go over well with Snape! But it will be in an unconscious way. Nothing deliberate. Harry is just going to continue to be irrational where Diana is concerned, because of Sirius. But Ginny will also be having a say in all this as well, I assure you!

I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed this story. I was looking at your author's page, wondering if extra chapters of "Longing" were on another site and decided to try one of your other stories. Fabulous story, I was little worried about the outcome at points, but it all worked out and in a believable manner. I sometimes read stories and think that Snape is at times a little too much like Darcy or Brandon for my liking. So I like your Snape, complicated and damaged, but wanting to be better and trying to change, but change like that takes time, which means parts of the story are difficult to read. Sorry, I'm rambling. I loved your story, thanks for writing it.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Possession)
Thank you so much! It's nice to get reviews from past stories. The next chapter of Longing should be up soon Today or tomorrrow, I hope.I do like writing angst, I see there is so much pain and damage in Snape and I am always out for a happy ending where he is concerned. Livvy
