I loved the ending, although there could have been a bit of awkward foreplay to seal the deal.

I thought this was awesome. It implies the beginning of a relationship that could probably cover several more stories, but yet there's really no need to say any more than this. I liked the feel of the story, and the way the conversation sounded like something they would actually say. Normally I'd be a little put off by the pairing (especially loving Remus/Sirius as I do), but it fit here. I also found it really sad that because of Voldemort's reappearance, both of them believe they are going to die in a few years. To be that young (still not even middle-aged) and preparing for the end of their lives is a very angsty image. :) Wonderful job!

I think this story is really cute and everything, but I dont understand why Sev says that they are going to die in a few years. Remus says he is only 40, and most poeple live until at least their 60's or 70's usually. And its said that wizards and witches live a lot longer than regulaer people...so yeah thats the only part I dont understand, because everybody considers 40 to be pretty young. Other than that, cute story.

Oh goodness, I loved that! It was so awkward and straightforward (I was laughing quite badly when Severus suggested "consummating their relationship") but at the same time, there's so much implied emotion and depth. Great work writing this piece!

Hahaha... hot damn, that was sweet :D I loved Remus' surprise! And how you (somehow) managed to keep Severus in character and say _that_. Ace!

It's sweet, in a shadowy sort of way. I mean, they're obviously not *in love* but they could end up that way, and they obviously care about each other. I like it. ^_^

Well written, but I must agree with someone else about the last line...

Short and sweet - I really liked it. I know you said in your bio that you hate reviews that don't specify exactly what people liked, so I'll do my best to stay on your good side and give you some reasons :P

*I liked the characterisations - their different personalities (while not completely JKRish) were well written. It was great how they still seemed to keep certain character traits that we all know and love of them, and yet they both developed more - we sort of got to know them on a more intimate level than in the HP series - we got to read about their feelings, their loneliness etc.
*The overall mood of the story was very moving - I can't quite put my finger on exactly what emotions it evoked... wistfulness, perhaps.

gah... I don't know. I can't really specify exactly what made it so good, but I tried ^_^ Please keep writing, you've got the talent.

Your story is beautiful. I've read some of your other work and - after a bit of thought - there is almost a haunting quality to your stories. Not so much sadness. Realism, maybe? I think that's what makes them stand apart from much of what's here - and what makes your work memorable. I look forward to your next story!

I’ve read a few of your fics, and I specially love the ones that are centered on this pairing. This one is really sad. I like the idea of Remus and Snape felling lonely, and searching company in each other. The way you put it is very realistic, without being dramatic. And I specially like the end, because it’s a little more optimistic. It gives the idea that maybe Remus and Snape feel more for each other than they realized, although they’re not in love.
I really like the characteritzacion of Remus, you make him act as he does in the books, but at the same time, you give an interesting new point of view of his feelings. I think he always seems to be more insecure when you write about him.
And I also love Snape. You keep his personality, but making him seem a little more human.
And his conversation is just...wow.
