Sweet, the ending matched the story.  I rather liked it.  

I was crazy for days waiting for this update. I am going to admit straight at the start that I saw the "T" rating and went... aw, man! You probably know I like my lemons, yes? LOL.

This will likely remain one of my all-time favorite stories. It was a fantastic journey. Your story-telling skills are beyond compare, with your own unique "voice." And you know how you read a lot of fanfic and quite a bit kind of... drifts out of your mind? The vivid imagery of this tale stayed with me day after day.

I will never forget their entire time in jail. One of my favorite scenes ever in any story, don't know why, but I loved it. Also, when he went to Hogwarts for the staff meeting and took Hermione. Minerva told him she needed to check his syllabus, LOL! He was mortified. Sitting in that cold doorway together... On a decayed log while Remus was nearby... In Madame Beetlebumps's garden, all of them relaxing...

But most of all, it was your portrayal of young Severus. I felt through and through that his utterly childish behavior was strictly canon, and usually not seen or done this well. Even the adult Sev, in this last chapter, still has bits of that. He has almost zero experience with women, and it shows.

But apparently, a romantic heart. And that was the kicker. However... yeah, I would've liked to see his inexperienced, naked butt in bed with Hermione. Ah, after his incredibly good kissing, LOL, it would've been great.

Fantastic story.
So... when is your next one coming?

lulabelle72's response: Yeah, I know. I posted this under chapter one. Smack me on the head. It's been that kind of day. Sorry, girl. Obviously goes after twenty...

aww its over. it was a lovely story. i'm so glad they didn't shag in the alley way.

well, i'm sitting here wearing a slightly sad smile.  wonderful ending, and bittersweet only because it means this wonderful story is over.  as i'm sure you are aware, i've loved pretty much every minute of this journey, and the ending didn't disappoint.  i especially appreciated the fact that it will be like she had told harry - she met someone 'foreign' and is going abroad to be with him.  just wonderful.  thanks so much for this delightfully entertaining adventure.

I dearly love a happy ending.  Thank you for giving us one in this complex and innovative story!

This was a perfect ending.  I've waited on tenterhooks for every update, and I have never once been disappointed.  In fact, you kept me amazed with every sentence.  I'm glad it ended happily, but I feel a bit bereft now that it's over!

Awww...finished?  My eager eyes couldn't believe the ending - though it was wonderfully sweet.  I crave more, though I understand that it had to end... :(

Fabulous ending.  I loved the way you used anticipation - both Severus anticipating that it might be Hermione and setting up the "trap" of the Order of Merlin, and Hermione anticipating that it might be Severus but not willing to hope that the dead might be alive.  I was almost afraid that they would be too unwilling to risk being let down to find out if their hopes could be realized.I also liked that Hermione doesn't jump in to a committment without getting to know him first.  It is nice to see her have some brains.Great story.  Thanks.

Fantastic! The story was splendid all the way through!

I'm loving this story so far, and I can't wait for another update!  You've got me hooked.  I'm eagerly awaiting chapters, decisions, and more younger!Severus.  BTW, baby Draco was adorable.  I kinda wish we could've seen Dobby too though; his fate in DH hit me hard, surprisingly.  Anyways, more please!

This is getting to be one of my favourite  stories. I always get really excited when I get an update notification in my inbox. Keep up the good work! I'm a sucker for time travel :)

Hmmm... it would seem that a lot more time passed than jsut a week since Hermione had been home. More like, she was in her future now rather than in Snape's past and that in said future a week had passed in which she was absent. Unless, of course, all those people joined her group and did all that work to Snape's house in jsut one week while she was gone - oh, but I remember Ron saying that it was like that when she left - so I guess she really is in a 'future' of her life rather than the present - hmmm... :)

Oh my goodness! I wonder what happened to her? I wonder what the hell Snape needs that Phial so badly for? I... I'm just going to go on to the next LOL

Yay, she found it - I'd like to know what it is too :)

I was wondering the same thing Hermione was - is she altering the future or reliving the past? I'm sure I would have the same worries in such a situation - especially with regards to Snape. I mean, one wrong move and the whole of the wizarding world would be affect since he truly is key to the entire battle between light and dark. I was/am I guess, a little confused that he had no Dark Mark though since he had taken it prior to Voldemort's fall. Is it because Voldy fell that the mark faded?? Hmmm... guess I 'll just have to go on to the next to find out :)

Please, don't leave us in suspense for too long! I love this story but the wait is killing me!You are such a good writer, I've even begun to like cats :)

and so the plot thickens even further, as hermione considers going to the past and staying there!  i like the relationship with luna, that she is the only person who knows whats going on, so at least hermione has her to talk to.  and yeah, it kind of seems like if she's already messed up the future so much that she can't recognize it, there's a little less reason to worry about mucking it up some more.  i kind of like the idea of a world where snape and lupin are very nearly friendly.  ; )  one of my favorite things about this story is that you write it with so much wit and humor, it's just so very entertaining to read.  and i kind of like draco when he's written as a not-so-nasty character - as long as we both know she won't end up with him in the end!

I keep on waiting for Hermione to go forward to her time and find something horrible!!!  I like how you weave significant and subtle changes in the present together.  Just great.  I absolutely love this story!  How much is left?  I eagerly await an update.

I love that you drew the parallels between Draco and Severus, with Draco just having that self-confidence. I am also a DMHG shipper so it is great to see other authors mention the connections between Draco and Hermione. Clueing Harry in on a potential disappearance was smart... it will buy her some time before he starts getting antsy.

Another intriguing chapter!  Loved your Draco, by the way.  Who but a Malfoy could so casually offer to hunt down a werewolf and slay them for their beloved?  :)  Hoping Hermione finds a way to let Severus live...  Very well written!

“It’s odd how we all turned out,” Lupin said finally, running his hand against the sharp, brown stubble on his cheeks. “The darlings of Gryffindor: two murdered at the hands of their friends and two imprisoned. Who would have thought? Your path made much more sense…”Shouldn't it be  'three murdered at the hands of their friends' with Sirius 'supposedly' killing peter? Lupin wouldn't have known peter was still alive and the real traitior

No she can't stay in the past! What about poor crooks!  She has to do something that makes Severus live....or bring crooks with her...poor puss

She has to go back.She has to go back.She has to go back.(Please note crowd of readers carrying torches out on your front lawn)She has to go back.She has to go back.She has to go back.

oh that i do love that bit of DM/HG! more please? :D
