I wonder for how long Hermione has been having these dreams. Since the end of the war? Hopefully Hermione will be able to save Severus from whatever fate holds for him. I have no idea how Hermione will be able to find him. Perhaps during her next "dream" Severus will be able to tell her where his body is and maybe some more useful information.

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

Great questions! Thanks for your comments!

Wow, Hermione is very kind.  I think I'd have a problem with sleepong next to a person in that condition, but, I'm no Hermione!  Qute a good story so far I'm enjoying it.

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

Thank you!  The whole "sleeping next to Severus" was a bit of an impulsive decision on her part...  but she couldn't bear to be further away from him anymore.

Ohhh a new potion!  I love the direction this story seems to be taking!

*grins... Thank you!

hmmm I'm hoping Severus will decide to live should the opportunity to do so.

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

Me, too...

This chapter gave me chills, but in a good way.  I think the ideas that their souls mated and left physical traces of the act was inspired.

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

Thank you so much!  I'm thrilled that it stirred such a strong emotional response in you!

sinbad

Oh this is really quite interesting, she is containing his soul within her!

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

She is!  And there's more...

sinbad

Hmm interesting she is holding his soul on this plane somehow, some way.  Since the soul hasn't left will it be reincorperated into his body?  Kudos for making me think lol!

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

*grins... glad that it makes you think!

Chilling start....off to the next chapter!

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

Thank you!  :)

That is one of the saddest, sweetest things I've ever read! 

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

*sniff. That was a difficult chapter to write, actually. There was a lot of pain and fear and anticipation... Hope you like the next (and last) chapter!

Great chapter - the potion though has me stumped - if it could be the Draught of Living Death plus maybe something else; I get the impression that maybe they have to really want this or it will allow him to pass on to the next life or something to that degree. This is the reason that he is shaking - he knows something that is frightening him but cannot bring himself to tell Hermione.

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

The potion is complicated and Severus is not telling what he's worried about.  More will become clear in upcoming chapters!  Thanks for your reviews,

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

Hehe. I haven't read the intermediate chapters, so I was a little lost to begin with when I was reading this, but it's great and thoroughly intriguing. Now I'm going back to read the bits I've missed!

Author's Response: *grins... Ooh, go and enjoy!  I'm so delighted that you're enjoying it and I appreciate your review.

"Phenominal cosmic powers. .   itty bitty living space."  Heehee  better and better with each chapter.  Bravo.

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

*laughs... Thank you!  I'm so glad that you're enjoying!  The next two chapters are in the queue... :)

This chapter is great!Can't wait till Severus is in the flesh!

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

Thank you!  They are both waiting nervously for that, too!  I appreciate your reviews! :D

I've been remiss in reviewing your lovely story, but I'd like to say that I truly love the whole premise you've presented.  I'm anxious to see how it resolves itself! 

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

Reviewing is harder than it looks!  I've resorted primarily to *squeee for a long time... I appreciate that you took time earlier and now to let me know that you've enjoyed it.  It's complete and will update every few days.

Thank you!

Fantastic chapter - I cannot wait to see what happened to Severus's body and how they could bring him back - I like the analogy of the room at first being black and bleak to the beauty and warmth it is now - good idea.

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

Thank you, Ladyluv :D  Watching these two heal and grow was important to me in this story -- and the space they share is created by them and reflects this.  I hope that you enjoy the story as it unfolds... and answers your questions!  I appreciate your reviews!

This is a lovely story, and the music is awesome!  I've just listened to both songs on Youtube, and I can't believe I've never heard of this guy before!!  And his poetry!  I can't thank you enough for the introduction.  And I can't wait until Snape gets back to the real world.  An interesting approach to the DH problem.

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

Thank you so much!  Isn't it incredible to hear him sing?  He has Snape's voice, as far as I'm concerned.  I'm glad that you're enjoying the story and thrilled to have introduced you to Leonard Cohen's music!  Enjoy!

Intriguing beginning.  I look forward to seeing what these dreams mean for the two of them.

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

Thank you! The mystery will unfold... the next chapter is in the queue and I will be updating regularly (the story is completed). I appreciate you taking the time to comment :)

Response from shefa (Author of In Dreams)

Thank you! And thank you for commenting :)

I'm thrilled that you adored it... Now that I have a bit of distance from the story, I'm polishing it up a bit more as I post... I hope you enjoy reading it again!

The song fits Severus perfectly, thank you, for inspiring me to listen to, L.C. again,{ not that I need much of a push to do that }The line in the song that realy got to me was, "It was the shape of our love twisted me" spot on.

10/10

Interesting, Severus seems to be aware now, even if Hermione is awake.

A very creepy start.
