Gods among men, ye be. And also a thanks to whomever the pinch-hitter was from the other team that made my submitting this possible :D
Random artist notes, haha! Firstly, my beta told me whoever reads this needs to put on some sad jams first. Secondly, I was kinda hoping for artistic ambiguity, but if it happens to be incompetent coherence, please forgive me! I really do hope it makes some kind of sense and that you enjoy it. More apologies if the talking balloons are confusing at the beginning :(
And random trivia, but I couldn't smoothly fit this into the narrative; the flowers are supposed to be forget-me-nots :D

	I really want to leave more of a comment than "amazing," but I just can't find any other words. It's heartbreaking and sad and brilliant and stunning and I just can't stop looking at it. Talk about totally nailing your prompts. Genius. Sheer genius. Applauds (Reply to this)

Oh, oh, oh. This is just. Um, wow amazing fabulous beautiful. I can't find words to describe just how much I absolutely love love love this.

The sequence of events, the slow but inevitability of it, and the soft, heart-breaking tone is just gorgeous. Love your Harry, and your Snape, the few panels towards the end make me both incredibly sad and marginally happy at the same time.

Definitely my favourite piece of the fest! :)

P.S. This was so manga-like that I started reading right-to-left for several pages before realizing that it might make more sense if I read it left-to-right. Reading too many manga scanlations do that to you. :D

	DUUUUUUUDE! I was wondering why on earth your made 26 PAGES OF SNARRY IN THREE DAYS. And now it all makes sense!!! HOLY GOD, I think you know how much I love this? Yes? XD (Reply to this)

	veridari 2008-11-07 12:36 pm UTC (link)
	Geesh, it's a good thing I can't vote. I'd be giving solid nines to the other team! What a story you told...so heartbreaking and hauntingly illustrated. You nailed your prompts. in awe (Reply to this)

	Oh jeez. You have slayed me dead. So freaking heartbreaking. I had tears in my eyes at the end. So freaking poignant. Wow. (Reply to this)

	anya_elizabeth 2008-11-07 02:11 pm UTC (link)
	Wow... God, I couldn't figure out what was going on, then there was the 'I'm already dead' panel and it all started to make horrible sense... it was so pretty before that, except for that little hint of blood, and then that panel comes out and hits you. And then the rest of it... guh. Wow. Amazing. (Reply to this)

	alisanne 2008-11-07 03:31 pm UTC (link)
	Heartbreaking and SO intense. sobs I think you killed me. wails (Reply to this)

	This is so touching and perfect. A world of pain and unfulfilled wishes. Wonderful work^_^ it's almost like reading a fanfic. (Reply to this)

	jaw hits floor This is a novel in pictures. Wow. I'm blown away. Completely blown away. This is so powerful. I can't even express how much I love this. Wow. (Reply to this)

	drusillas_rain 2008-11-07 08:53 pm UTC (link)
	oh, wow - so powerful and emotional and I'm still stunned by it (and am now pretty much incoherent). Loved everything about this, especially the scene where Harry bursts through Severus, as well as the part where he's eating the pills/flowers. So incredibly wonderful! (Reply to this)

	ziasudra 2008-11-07 09:38 pm UTC (link)
	Beautiful, and at the same time so sad and haunting! It's so utterly peaceful in the beginning until you get to the part when the dream starts turning into the nightmare, and then it's gripping all the way till the end. My heart aches for Harry. Very nicely done! (Reply to this)

	joanwilder 2008-11-07 10:20 pm UTC (link)
	Wow. How heartbreaking for Harry. You really managed to tell the whole story, though, and your imagery was poignant. Nice use of the Camus text. cries (Reply to this)

	oni_butterfly 2008-11-07 10:32 pm UTC (link)
	This is just...wow. That is the only word I can use. Wow. (Reply to this)

	umbrus 2008-11-07 10:40 pm UTC (link)
	Wow that was brilliantly done. I envy your skill of being able to show so much with so few lines. I particularly enjoyed the emotion that was in their body language, face and the shadows. Wonderful work, thanks for sharing ^_^ (Reply to this)
