Reviews for That Language He Has Never Spoken
Hey! Your Imperio worked! I got such a "floating in the cloud" mood that wentover to your lj to see if I could find any tid-bits of the next chapter in there. Good luck with the clowns! On second thought, I might send them to you if the next chapter is not posted very soon! I'm new at intimidation,does it show?
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Noooo, please, not the clowns!The next chapter is in the queue. Call back the circus.
Thanks for the review.
That was quite lovely.
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Thank you. That's lovely to hear!

Oooh. Another great chapter! I really do enjoy this story so, so much!
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad it's holding your interest.
"For myself" rather than "to myself". Severus is right; that one word makes all the difference. Brilliantly done!
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Thank you! And it seems just the sort of minute detail he'd pick up on too.
Glad to see this posted on TPP. I loved it when I read it on Ashwinder.
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Thanks for re-reading (and reviewing). I'm trying to get all my work over here as well as Ashwinder.
I love the way you write - the pacing, the rhythm, the urgency. Looking forward to seeing more of the story unravel!
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Thank you so much.
Such wounded spirits coming together (no pun intended). Despite the location, the desperation, reassurance, and passion make the scene beautiful.
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Thank you so much. Wounded spirits, indeed. I like that turn of phrase.
Imperio'd again...I love how you get in Severus' mind
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Thanks again. It's a thorny angsty place to visit as a writer, and I quite enjoy it.
intiguing...on to the next chapter. I just love getting inside Severus' mind I have been duely imperioed
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Thanks! I enjoyed writing his POV.
Interesting...I like it.
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Thank you. Glad you're along for the ride.
I should have seen that threesome coming. somehow I was hoping it was going to be SS/HG/HP. I liked the part where Hermione winked at him. I felt it was significant. Thanks!
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Not this time around. Perhaps in another fic...Thanks for reviewing.
I cant tell if your Snape has a vivid imagination or if he is a little nuts? Who is the other party in the threesome? I dont get the french orange juice joke. Does this make me a dunderhead? I am off to the next chapter!
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
A little from column A, and a little from column B... the man's under a fair bit of stress and really, really needs to get laid.The orange juice joke was my feeble attempt at wordplay. "Toujours Pur," the Black family motto, means "Always Pure" in French. The wizards, of course, are referring to their blood, but I could totally see a juice company using that motto to brand their product!
Response from MollysSister (Reviewer)
I am a dunderhead because I need to have jokes explained to me! Thank you!

This is a very gripping story. I'm very interested to find out where it ends up! Also, the final section with Lily-Snape is an amazing dream sequence. I probably haven't read a more truly dream-like one in a very long time.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm glad you're drawn in.
I'm trying to figure out what his dreams mean if anything. Good chapter.
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
The dreams mean Snape *really* needs to get some...Thanks for reviewing.
I liked your command to review, it made me laugh. Promising start.
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Thank you! Glad to see the "command" is working. Must go perfect my evil laugh now.
This is quite interesting.
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Thanks!
ah, I loved this over at Ashwinder and now I'm reading it again because it is just so amazing!
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Thank you so much! With all the great fic out there it means a lot that you think this worth a re-read.

Ooh. This looks like it's going to be a great one! :-)
Author's Response: Awww, thanks. I promise I'll try my best.
I have this strange compunction to review...."This girl glows the same way, like a good plum, like she’s swallowed a full season of sunlight." Beautifully written, that! In fact, you've captured his inner monologue exquisitely.So you're promising a dreamy threesome, are you? Well, let's have it, woman! He should have some juicy memories to keep for himself, once having given that other stuff to Harry. He'll need some good, *real* memories, once he's tried out the new potion she's suggesting he create. And then he should have the strength to follow through on 'em!
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
One dreamy threesome, coming up!Also ahead: real & juicy memories. Thanks for the kind review. I'm glad to hear the imagry speaks to you.
I am intrigued. Can't wait to read more.
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
You won't have to wait long. Chapter two should be up soon. Thanks for the review.
This is lyrical and so beautiful. I love the missing scene memories, and your characterization of Severus.
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Thank you so much. I'm glad you're drawn into my little take on the last two books.
Go on, go on . . .
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
Next chapter should post soon!
Did I read this lurking on the sshg exchange? I love it here too!
Response from madqueenmab (Author of That Language He Has Never Spoken)
It wasn't part of the exchange, but has been up over on Ashwinder a while...maybe that;s why it's familiar?
Response from sc010f (Reviewer)
Ahh. That must be it. Well, it's still wonderful here! :)
So sad in the end, but it was the right ending for this beautiful tale.
