| SilentStardust 2007-11-01 ch 25, | abuseI cant believe you got so few reviews for this. It is an excellent continuation of Pledges. |
| shogi 2007-10-07 ch 25, | abuseHonestly, I don't want to review. Not. At. All. Please don't take that in a bad way... but I'm totally serious. When one has witnessed, or experienced something profound, then one must take the time to... let it sink in, I guess. And that's what I really need to do but I think that it would be unfair to you, the author, to not be able to know exactly how much your story affected me. And it did. And it was amazing. Obviously I've read 'Pledges' and when I came upon this one which read 'Sequal to Amireal's Pledges' well, then I just had to take a look. I don't really care much for Fate or Destiny, I like to forge my own path, but I'm so glad that I decided to click that button and read your story. Jumping back and forth between Severus being dead and Harry's perspective of it was absolutely brilliant. It intriguied me... and then kept me hooked for the duration. Maybe it started with that, or maybe it was Draco's death... but I couldn't stop reading til the end. I think one of the things that really endeared this to me was that it was REAL. People, loved ones, died, and the survivors had to live on and mourn but they kept moving. I actually cried when Harry had to go through Severus' funeral and you described that feeling of aloneness so well ('well' doesn't even cover it... 'brilliantly' does you more justice) that it hit me hard. I've been to a funeral... and I know that feeling... and I know that I'll know that feeling more and more as my life progresses and I meet more people... but that doesn't ease the pain any... I found the parts where the ones left behind have to deal with the death (like Hermione and Ron after Draco; Harry after Severus; everybody after Harry) to be some of the more powerful parts for me. Those made me cry the hardest because... I think it's because I can relate, and so I emphasized and made the feelings that much more powerful. Ok, now I'm rambling so I'll leave it at that and hope that you got my convoluted reactions to your piece. Ah, one last thing, though, before I leave: Thank you. |
| Oxygen Kiss 2007-07-11 ch 25, | abuseThis is a lovely story - though confusing at times. utterly heartwrenching and beautiful. you have a certain eloquence with your writing that is simply lovely. I never thought a "growing old" story would be so beautiful. im speechless. :) |
| Oriane 2005-12-21 ch 25, anon. | abuseAbsolutely wonderful, so sad and moving and fun and scary, just great. Thank you! I also loved the little glimpses of the wizarding world's future, quite sad, but not unrealistic, mh. Thanks for writing and sharing O |

| Jadeey 2005-01-02 ch 1, | abuseHiya. I just started reading this and wanted to tell you that I really like it. I actually read this first chapter the other day and liked it so much i decided i'd go and read Pledges first. It is an awesome chapter anyway but after reading Pledges it had even more of an impact. Ok now I'm going to go and read the rest :-) |
| Dreamfall 2004-10-11 ch 2, | abuseAnother good chapter- but I belatedly realized that this is a sequel (Yes, I know teh title makes it completely obvious- but I had too many windows open and wasn't paying attention) and am therefore off to read the original first. Back later *waves* |
| Dreamfall 2004-10-11 ch 1, | abuseM. Nice start, very evocative writing that lets you into Harry's mind and past without just spelling things out. Looking forward to seeing where you go with it. Seems possible that it will be all flashback, but it will be interesting to find out. But I'm going to stop with the review when I can go on to the next chapter and find out! |
| High Stress Level 2004-06-23 ch 25, | abuseThe raw emotion in this story is breathtaking. At parts I laughed aloud and at others I could barely read the words through my tears. I have never read anything this moving. Even death, though heartwrenching, became something beautiful. |
| daylyn 2004-01-29 ch 25, anon. | abuseThis is one of the most beautifully written fanfiction works I have ever read. It's poignant, sad, funny, moving. It made me laugh and it made me cry (literally). I first read this a few months ago, and I still can't stop thinking about it. This is a wonderful piece. |
| psycho tabby cat 2004-01-09 ch 26, | abuseHeya! I hope you get tired of waiting and write somemore like this in the future *g* I throughly enjoyed this fic. Sometimes the level of detail in the writing was amazing (Harry, Sev and Draco fighting.. and all the Harry/Sev scenes) It took awhile for me to really get into the the story with all the changing times of the first chapters, but once past the those I was hooked. I still havn't forgiven you for kiling off Draco though! I would love to have read some more with the Trio... But all in all a really nice fic. Thankyou and well done. D |
| Filodea 2003-09-19 ch 26, | abuseI just finished reading this in one sitting. It is almost 4 in the morning, and I have to be up at 6 to go to work. BUT, I couldn't stop reading. It is the most touching story, along with Pledges, I have read here. I also read A Bit of All Right, and enjoyed it too. I am looking forward to any other stories you decide to write. Kleenex definitely was a necessity on this one. |
| Madame.x.mlp 2003-09-09 ch 1, | abuseOMG! i have only read the first chapter and i'm already crying |
| Izzy 2003-06-17 ch 8, anon. | abuseHi I'm the one that emailed you!! This is WONDERFUL!! I LOVE IT |
| haldolpoim 2003-06-09 ch 26, anon. | abuseWOW This has got to be one of the best ss/hp stories I have read to date - I haver read it twice now and it was better the second time that the first. Are you writing anymore? Please say you are. Thanks for sharing! |
