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.
Reviews for Full of Grace
There are tears in my eyes. What an incredible story. You are an amazing writer. The plot was tremendous. I can't believe how bad the Aurors and Madam Pomfrey were. Absolute power corrupts was certainly proven in your story. The best part, however, has to be the relationship that you so carefully develop between Hermione and Severus. Cheers to you for making it so real, so tangible. I can't wait for the epilogue.

Thank you so much! I agonized over this fic so much. I was so intimidatied to try my hand at writing Hermione, but I have been pleasantly surprised and humbled by the responses I've been given. I studied European History in college and have half of my Masters work done in European History with a focus on the Holocaust, so after reading DH it just seemed an interesting way to approach a post-war Wizarding world where everything is turned upside down and everything up for grabs.Livvy
Response from sherrithewriter (Reviewer)
Your depth of knowledge of the Holocaust is certainly evident in this story. After I finished reading it, I told my husband and 16-year-old son the premise of the story and they both agreed that it sounded really good. (It was!) I hope you will consider writing more of Hermione. I think you nailed her personality, or at least how I envision it, to a T. She is a strong person and those writers who portray her as only weak or a victim do her a disservice. Thanks again for taking the time to write such an amazing story.

Actually, I just got my next HG/SS story validated, but it is not a straight-forward one. It spans three decades and deals with the events of Snape's life that leads him to Hermione. I hope you will check it out. It's called "Hurt"Thanks,Livvy
ackkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk cliff hangers i hate them grrrrrrrrrrrrrlol i loved the storry i read it all last night when i couldnt sleep but it sent me to sweet dreams with the ending you have given us i hope this story isnt done there is the wedding and all that stil and i know you wouldnt leave you reader hanging without the prper lemons lolit was a woderful story thank you for sharing with me
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Well, I don't write about the wedding, since Snape is so not the type of person to show his feelings in public, I go straight for the wedding night, where alone with Hermione he would be more likely to open up and say all the romantic stuff we all want to hear from him! :) Hope you enjoy the lemons!Thanks for reviewing. The epilogue is in the queue.Livvy
The Weasleys are such a wonderful bunch of people. I loved how they were planning a secret wedding for Hermione. Such a wonderful thing to do.Your last line gave me goosebumps!
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Thanks! I hope you enjoy the epilogue!Livvy
Oh what a chapter and the end of it was so beautiful - I loved how you got him out of the camps and then all the plotting at the house for a wedding - cudos.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Thank you! I hope you enjoy the epilogue!Livvy
What a wonderful surprise--and an epilogue, too? Bliss!
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
After all that gloom and doom? I have to get some decent lemons in there! I hope you like it.Livvy
I love the Weasleys. This was a lovely gesture.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Yes it was. They really proved their love for Hermione. That she is loved just because she is Hermione and not Ron's fiancee. It was a very "grace-filled" gesture and very selfless of them.Livvy
What a sweet ending, but I want the epilogue. Well done Irish
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Thanks! I hope you like it!Livvy
Awww. This was really wonderfully sweet. I'm so glad they're going to have a properly happy ending!
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Thank you, I hope you enjoy the epilogue!Livvy
Yay! Happy endings! I like your Molly very much. Some people write Molly as a real bitch. --I just have to say, since Eva-Snape and you brought it up, that Snape's death in DH was not in battle, a warrior's death as you say, but that does not make it ignoble to me. I believe that it is not a man's death that is important, but his life. So much of Snape's adult life has been spent fighting evil, and in such a way that he was sometimes cut off from his true friends and forced to associate with the worst of society. Such self-sacrifice gives his life great meaning. Whether he steps through a dingy, littered doorway or a beautiful, rich portal is of little importance, it is the life he led and the life he goes to that matter.In my opinion, of course!
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
I guess that is where we differ on that point. I see his whole life so miserable and a great part of it sacrificing so much, only to be doubted at every turn. I just feel he deserved a moment of glory.But, anyway, I hope you enjoy the epilogue!Livvy
Very nice ending, I'm sure the Weasley's are creating the perfect atmosphere for a wedding, although I do agree it would have been nice if Severus had the opportunity to ask.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Well, remember at the end she says "ask me" and he asks her to "be my beautiful Hermione, and I will live to love you". So that was his proposal. But hang on for the epilogue, I'm not done just yet with these two :)Thanks for reviewing!Livvy
Oh how wonderful for them, you made me have tears in my eyes. What a lovely way to surprise Hermione, she worked very hard for all of them to have better conditions.
I hope you will write about the wedding and not end it here, Update as soon as you can please.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
The epilogue will be up as soon as it is validated. I hope you enjoy it, but I don't do the wedding, I go straight to the wedding night hehe. Snape is a private person and he would never say the wonderful things "normal" people say and do during weddings. So, it felt more "right" to have them alone to say all the romantic things they feel for one another.Thanks,Livvy
That was absolutely perfect. Snarky Severus is back. I had to stop and laugh when I read “My joy is complete,” Snape bit out sarcastically. I sometimes have to go back and read the books again to see JKR's Snape because the way he is written in fiction is incredible. His snarkiness, his sarcastic wit, it all makes me wonder what JKR would have written him like if she had not ripped out my heart and killed him with such an anti-climactic death. I could forgive her for killing him off, but I cannot forgive her for the way she killed him. He deserved a warrior's death. Anyway enough about that. I love this fic and cannot wait to see what happens next for our couple.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
I agree. It wass such a rubbish death - if he HAD to die he deserved a warrior's death. I wholeheartily agree. I cried for three days after reading DH. I could not believe she did that. He deserved so much more! I hope you enjoy the epilogue.Thanks for reviewing!Livvy
Wow, that was quick! A so romantic ending.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
I felt it was deserved after so much sorrow. I hope you enjoy the epilogue!Livvy
OMG OMG OMG!! I get to leave the first of the last comments and I must, must, must, tell you I have loved your tale!! They both get to be in character and yet grow to be so much more. Bravo!
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Thank you so much! That makes me so happy you have enjoyed this fic. I hope you enjoy the epilogue as well!Livvy
NO!!!! You cant stop it there! I HAVE to know how Severus managed to get free and be allowed to see the dungeons!!!!
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
All will be revealed as soon as the story is validated. It's in the queue.Sorry for evil cliffie!Livvy
I am so glad Hermione had a cause that brough back the real Hermione. I loved that she was able to stand up to that horrible defence attorney.Now, time to release Snape...
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Thanks for reviewing! I hope you like how this all is resolved.Livvy
Okay the ending of the chapter is such a cliffie - It was Severus entering the castle as a free potions master but what happened - you had me going with the four more years - Next chapter should be good :-)
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Yes, it was a rather evil cliffie, but it's true, Snape is back in black! The next chapter will be very sweet and I hope you like it.Livvy
HelloooooooooooooooooooYou can`t do that to me....... I`m going to die of suspense.I love this storie and now I have got this cliffy......HELP
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
The next chapter is in the queue and all will be resolved. But so you know, Snape is back in black!Livvy
Response from Cloud72 (Reviewer)
Thank you I`m biting my fingernails.......*grin*
Interesting chapter. Nice to end it with a hopeful cliffie! Looking forward to more soon. Thanks for updating so quickly.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Yes, the next chapter is in the queue! Things are looking up now!Thanks for reviewing,Livvy
Interesting last paragraph. Can I hope?
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Yes, hope all you want- it's really true!Livvy
Great chapter, but the end was very confusing. Severus hadn't heard word yet and at the end of the chapter he's in teaching robes, so I'm not sure what's happening.
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Yes, evil cliffie, I know! But all will be revealed in the next chapter, which is in the queue, BTW. And so you know I'm not completely evil, Severus is black in black! He's Back!Livvy
Ooh! A cliffie! And potentially not even an evil one! *waits eagerly for the next chapter*
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
Yes, the next chapter is in the queue! Thanks,Livvy
What could this possibly mean? How has Severus had access to the dungeons? Has he been paroled without Hermione being told? Well Done! Irish
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
All will be explained in the next chapter, but yes-he's back in black! Thanks!Livvy
WHAT?!?!?I'm breathless!!!!!What is happening?Oh my. Please update. In five minutes. (I need time to catch my breath or I'd say immediately!)
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
The update is in the queue and Severus is back in black! All shall be explained in the next chapter: what happens to our favorite couple, and what happens to the aurors and the prisoners.Sorry for evil cliffie!Livvy
Oh my. Oh, my Could it be? This better not be a dream sequence--especially since you left it like this!
Response from livvy6 (Author of Full of Grace)
OKay, just so you know I'm not completely evil, this is no dream! Severus is back in black! Everything will be revealed in the next chapter and it is in the queue!Livvy
