This has been languishing in my bookmarks for nearly a year, and I've finally gotten round to it! (Takes me a while to find time for things upwards of 10k, never mind nearly 40k.) You hardly need another comment I suppose, but here's one anyway:

Death, apparently, only means that I can't brush the dandruff off of her shoulders and she can't owl me wee vials of shampoo. Other than that, things are status quo.

*giggles*

I like the drama about forgivness and everything between Severus and Albus, and the sniping camaraderie with Minerva.

"You can't come home again," I murmured. "Your recent travails place you beyond your peers. That is immutable."

Frodo Potter?

To close the chapter, finally, on that arrogant young man whose pride ruled him and robbed him of any potential happiness forever.

Oh Severus...

This is what happens then when you die. Your soul is welcomed by those who loved you, and if you were not loved, you are stranded, your soul hovering for eternity. Unless someone has your portrait painted and then you sit drinking warm nothing for eternity.

...*cries*

Mmm, thanks for the extra little garnish of Harry/Draco!

I like Severus becoming friends with Lily the younger. It doesn't exactly fix everything (that sort of wound doesn't exactly get "fixed") but it does soothe it.

	The lovely thing about getting comments so late in the game is that it forces you to revisit what you wrote. Thanks for that. I spent a couple of hours re-reading it, and it holds up for me in the most profound way. I know this story is probably not considered as "strong" as the other Snarry I've written, but I do love it. Thank you for your very kind words. (Reply to this) (Parent)
