Just an avid reader who somehow stumbled into HP fanfiction. I read and sometimes, I write.

*phew* that was a relief. I'm so happy that everything is okay, and they are ready to make a go of the relationship. The reworking of the shrieking shack was beautifully done. And no cliff hanger! (Are you feeling unwell?)
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
I laughed so hard my stomach hurt when I read your review! LOL It's a miracle, I know. *winks*Thank you so much! More to come soon!
What a nice chapter. I'm so happy they finally found each other. I can't wait for the next chapter.
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
Thank you very much! Lot o' fluff coming up next. ;) Thanks!
Ok, I love this so far , but you are definity reaching with the glasses bit. LOL whatever works.
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
Well, the whole story is reaching a bit, as does the entire 'ship really. LOL As for the glasses bit, I actually scientifically tested it ... kinda. Everyone in my family wears glasses, so I tried it out. It worked! I could clearly see my son standing behind me reflected in my daughter's glasses. Granted, you have to be at just the right angle, but it is possible. ;)I'm glad you're enjoying the story. More to come very soon! Thank you so much!
Wow, what great story! Update soon, please!gab

Too bad that Hermione is not allowed to have any stenuous activities for two weeks. Otherwise, they could consummate their marriage. I guess they could anyway, but it would probably be disobeying the healer's orders. I am happy to learn that Severus's last thought was of Hermione. I like how you turned Severus's looking at Harry into him actually looking at Hermione.Hopefully their won't be anymore rough patches between Severus and Hermione other than the normal ones that occur between people. Both of them deserve a little happiness in life, especially Severus.
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
LOL Yes, consummation would definitely fall outside of the healer's orders. ;)I'm so glad that you liked the Shrieking Shack scene. JKRs version was a huge obstacle in keeping this fic DH-compliant, and I was thrilled to have found a way to make it work and be completely SSHG. :)I do think we're over the major hurdles. Lots o' fluff on the horizon. Thank you very much! More to come very soon.
Awww! I love how he took charge and went to her like that. That's a real man! I love that stuff! So fluff all you want. I'm so glad Hermione didn't lose the baby!I'll tell you something, the night DH came out, I was at Barnes and Noble at midnight to get my copy. I was pregnant, seven to eight weeks. I stayed up all night reading the book. I started bleeding a little, but blew it off since I had an exam earlier that day. When I read that Snape died I was so upset and I started to bleed badly and before I knew it, it was over. The baby was gone. For three days I was devestated. I was so angry at JKR for killing off Snape and felt so numb about my miscarriage, I couldn't even cry. So I watched Truly, Madly, Deeply and then The Search for John Gissing so I could laugh my ass off and cry my eyes out. It was great.I think that's why I started up with fanfiction, because I hate the ending of DH with a passion! And I think Snape should come back in as many ways we can think of in our stories.You have been telling a very original tale and I am loving it. I can't wait to see how you are going to wrap it up! Great work!Livvy
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
Oh, my. How heart-wrenching. I am so sorry for your loss. *hugs you*Snape deserved so much better than JKR gave him. That's why we're here, right? :)Thank you so much. I'm so glad you're enjoying the story. More to come very soon!
Hi,I like this story very much and I await the next chapter as I have await the firsts. But there is just a little thing that I would like to help you correct... You see, my first language is french and so the title of your french book should be "Livre de formules magiques et potions" The word "épelle" that you use is a verb that translate in english by "to spell (a word)" and not exactly the sense I think you had wanted to give it... So, I hope if it is possible you can correct it and to see soon an all new chapter!!
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
Ah, thank you so much! I will change that right now. :)I'm glad you're enjoying the story!
No!! If anything happens to the baby, everybody will have a guilt-feast : Hermione will feel guilty because it's her baby, Harry will feel guilty because he always does (see canon), Severus will feel guilty because he's just has a row with Hermione. Please, I really think the bleeding should be a false alert, just enough to make Hermione and Severus realise how much they mean to each other.Update soon please, I enjoy this story so much.
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
Oh, yes. You're right about that. If she loses the baby, it will be guilt all the around. *nods*You are very insightful. ;)The next chapter will post later this evening, and much will be answered. My favorite scene of the story is in chapter six, so I hope you enjoy it. :)Thank you so much!
Dude! You can't do this to us!!! Nooo!!!!! Next chapter STAT!!!!!!!!! Please.
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
So sorry! I won't make you wait too long, though. The next chapter will post later this evening. :DThank you!
Ah! A reflection in his lenses. Clever, clever!!!
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
Thank you, thank you. *takes a bow*More to come soon! I'm glad you're enjoying it! :)
Arggghhh! Just when it seems a simple matter of getting them in the same room together while they both admit how they feel, we get an evil cliffhanger to complicate matters further!Ah, but it is still effervescent and beautifully written! "When it comes to women, Severus, you are a dunderhead." He is indeed, but such an endearing dunderhead. Marvelous!
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
Yes ... I'm evil that way. ;)Thanks so much, m'dear! More to come later tonight -- I couldn't leave you all hanging for too long. Much will be answered in the next chapter -- it has my favorite scene of the entire story. I hope you like it!
"Choke on that!"--Love it! Ya get the feeling Hermione is used to dealing with dense males? Alright! Enough with the cliffies already!
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
LOL She definitely is! Sorry about the cliffie (sorta) but I promise it is the last one in this story. :) Much is answered in the next chapter, which will post this evening.Thanks so much!
Evil Clifhanger. I love watching Severus get chewed out by his mom. Classic.
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed the bit with Eileen! :DMore to come very soon!
it's not nice to fool with my story! Leaving cliff hangers and making me wait. I suppose I will just have to wait for you to post the next chapter. still, not nice. all kidding aside, very good!

Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
LOL Thank you so much! It as an awful cliffhanger, I know. But it is the last one for the story, I promise. :) I won't let you hang too long -- the next chapter will post this evening and much will be answered!Thanks, again!
Oh no! Love this story and would hate to see anything happen to the baby. Can't wait to read a new chapter soon.
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
It was terrible of me to end that way, I know. But I won't leave you hanging for long -- I'm posting the next chapter this evening. :)Thank you!
Oh poor Hermione - the trauma of getting upset seems to have been too much on her. I hope that she does not lose the baby and I hope Severus makes it right quick enough. Good chapter.
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
Your concerns are answered in the very next chapter, which I will be posting later this evening. I just couldn't let you all wait too long after that evil cliffhanger! :) Thank you so much!
Very good chapter! I loved how Severus's mom verbally slapped him around a bit, and the cliffie is hard to bear, but I'm looking forward to what happens next!
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
Thank you very much! The next chaper will post this evening -- I couldn't leave you all hanging with such a horrible cliffie! :)
You'd better post again soon! Oh my goodness, please don't let Hermione lose the baby! “That is not love, Severus. That is obsession.”Right in one! That was the whole premise of my fic "Possession". I don't think Severus really loved Lily, but that he had her on a pedestal and made her the perfect woman that she never was or could live up to.VERY good chapter! I LOVE this fic!Livvy
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
I will post very soon! I promise! Most likely tomorrow night. And that chapter will explain a lot of things. ;)I agree completely with your assessment of his feelings for Lily. It irks me to no end that JKR did that, but ah well. That's what fanfic is for -- fixing things! :)Thank you so very much!
Well, I'm glad that Severus is not disappointed about being married to Hermione. I wonder how he'll show her that he does love her and is not disappointed. At least Hermione has already suspected he must care for her a little if he was upset about her being married to someone else.I look forward to learning what has happened to the baby. At least with Severus alive they can have another one, depending on the circumstance of the problem. It seems like there must be a lot of blood, which would be a problem. If there had only been a little blood, Harry probably would not have heard about it.I'm not sure what to think of Severus's confession to his mother. He seemed a little too open with someone he hasn't seen in a long time and one he didn't know very well. Perhaps it's the stress and the need to tell someone about his feelings.
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
Thank you so much for the review! Much of what you mention will be answered in the next chapter. ;) As for Hermione, without saying what is happening with her, this is her first pregnancy -- any amount of bleeding is bound to terrify her. I know it certainly did me! LOLSeverus and Eileen. Yes. It does seem a bit sudden, but they've been alone for four weeks with only each other to talk to. I imagine they've slipped back into old routins to some extent. Plus, I think Severus just wanted to talk about Hermione to someone. It was something he had been able to do until that moment.More to come very soon. Thanks, again!
Dear god, what is with you and cliffhangers? I was all queued up for the heart-breaking confession Severus was making to his mother, and I practically have a heart attack picturing Harry bursting through the door, slamming it against the wall. Update soon!
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
I am hopeless addicted to cliffhangers, but I do think this was the last one for this story. :)It's a horrible place for me to leave it. So sorry (sort of), but I promise to update again very quickly. It should be up tomorrow night, I think. Thank you, again!
It better be VERY SOON! Update! Loved this chapter!
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
Very soon! I promise! Most likely tomorrow night. And that chapter will explain a lot of things. ;) Thank you so much!
Ahahaha... I love that his mother assumed Hermione was his daughter. That is just the sort of reaction most would have, but it is so comical here.
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
I'm so glad you liked that bit -- it had me laughing out loud as I wrote it. :) Thank you so much!
His mother? What a twist! I love it.
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
So glad you liked seeing Eileen! She'll be around for a while. ;) Thank you, again!
Oh, shit. Sorry, only word i could think of right then. XDIf he was so bothered by the thought of her having his child, then Snape is going to be pissed when he finds out that she married him.
Response from sshg316 (Author of Living Legacy)
LOL It does sort of fit the circumstances. ;)Things are certainly about to get interesting ... I hope so, anyway! Thank you so much!
