This is the Snape I want so much to believe still lives in the world--healed, whole, and loving. Oh, me too! Believe me. It was so hard to let him go and send the fic off to the mods after living in that universe for three months. *happy sigh*
Your comments really touched me. It's really hard to know what to say except thank you again. I knew the fic was special to me, but I really am stunned that so many readers have taken a chance on this PG offering, and have poured out their comments and love.
