Pir8, when you posted that you were done writing Snape-centric stories, I couldn't help myself, I cried out: "NO!" and despaired. You write him so completly alive. This was before I had read this story.
There is nothing like beginning a daunting workday, sitting in the spring sunshine, tears streaming down my face. As I approached the midpoint of your tale, I felt an "oh-oh" -- I am not going to get an easy, fantastic, hot Snape-gets-out-of-the-portrait-and-fucks-Harry-senseless giddy ride of fun. Oh, no, I could see you were going to address everything, make sense oout fo the whole mess of DH and everything leading up to it. For a while, I feared you would never have them make real contact. So, that was why I was weeping amid the pansies in the courtyard outside my office, when they finally rolled into that Slytherin four-poster, and I am now crying happy tears, and completely understand why you (might be) done...
I throw roses at your feet.

	This is lush, and sad, and lovely, and I have stayed up far beyond my bedtime reading it. I don't know just why, but something in all the recs and reviews I saw had me expecting dark!Ginny. I'm glad you didn't go there. Snape's got a lot of nerve accusing Harry of martyrdom though. Big ol git. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Oh this was stunning. Just stunning. This was a beautiful exploration of human nature and relationships and an extremely stimulating read. I loved that you explored many of the under-explored themes and then added to much more in the look at their future. Brava!

	This was simply gorgeous. I have to admit I was a bit leery because of the infidelity prompt but you handled it with grace. The progress of Snape's and Harry's relationship was well paced and kept me on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what was going to happen next. Fantastic fic, thank you for such an amazing read! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I truly don't even begin to have words for the brilliance behind this story. This was more than amazing. It made me laugh, it made me cry. Your characters were spot-on: you created the next generation in a way I've never seen them before. They were so real. Snape was so... so multi-dimensional, so true to canon. I am looking forward to reading this over & over again. (Reply to this) (Thread)
