Oh, thank you so much for such a wonderful story! I enjoyed every word! So many things I loved about this.
First and foremost, I loved Harry's run of emotion in this. You portrayed a very realistic cycle of denial and depression and healing, and I love that Severus was able to bring Harry around. Their relationship followed such a natural progression, and I love to see a Severus who’s both stern and tender in his teachings.
Normally, I frown upon nicknames, but I fell so completely in love with Harry calling his daughter 'Lilyflower.' That was so sweet, and during the course of the fic I found myself tearing up in places. Very well written and very realistic. Thank you so much!
I don't have clue one as to whom you could be, but I have a strong notion you're British. That, or you have a fabulous Britpicker. I'm just completely tickled by things like Mac, though. *G*
Can't wait to find out who you are if I don't already and read more of your work :-)
