There are no words, but I must try...

I've been crying ever since Harry gave Snape the tea and Snape blushed, and gone through, like, a million tissues, two hours solid of reading this incredible story through a fog of tears...

So powerful. The most powerful story I have ever read. I can't believe that there can be things in the world as beautiful as this. I was so scared it was going to end sadly, with them trapped apart from each other. The moment I started reading your story I couldn't stop, and young Snape was just perfect in every way, nearly going mad with longing when Harry disappeared... "Where the - hell have you been?" You are so talented, every time Snape couldn't express how he felt, or Harry felt crushed, or Snape's heart broke and he pushed Harry away, I was sobbing. His awkwardness when he fell for Harry was so perfect, the way they made love was so real, so heavenly. The sentence when Snape's heart wants to soar hopelessly out of his chest with happiness is just stunning, so moving. I'm crying so much. It's nearly 2am, just wanted to say thank you for the most wonderfully powerful story I have ever read; a perfect, magical, earth-shatteringly emotional story. It is about real, true love, and I think it's one of those stories that stays with you forever. Deep, and beautiful, impossible to forget. I will read it over and over. You are amazing.

	First of all, no more tears! Second of all, thank you so so much! Your comment is too wonderful, and deeply flattering. I had such trouble writing young Snape - I always worried I wasn't doing him justice - but I am so glad you liked him. Honestly, I'm so touched by your words. Feedback like this means the world to me, and is so appreciated. (Reply to this) (Parent)
