I'm glad you liked the story! The starting point for me this time was to try to come up with a Snarry that was as canon-compliant as possible (which, in retrospect, I should have claimed canon as a genre *g*). It was my way to try to internalize Book 7 and the closing of canon before moving onto the realm of AU Snarries. I'm very happy indeed to learn that the plotting and the characters as they are in canon worked.

I have a weak spot for obsessed!Harry and Memory!Snape and any permutation of Eileen Prince, so I had fun putting all of them into the same story together :) I was a bit nervous about presenting a Ginny that isn't bitter or angry or overly bitchy, given the hurdle she often causes for slash pairings featuring Harry. But she just fits into the overall tone of this particular story, and she has really grown on me. *g*

Thank you so much for reading and leaving such a thoughtful comment!
