glow

I just had to read this after tea and sym. Great one chapter filler story that gives us insight to what happened between Harry and Severus while they were out after the snake. Again, like "Tea", this story is well written and full of surprises and tension with just the right amount of cannon angst thrown in for good measure. I sort of like the way these stories dealt with the ending of the cannon story better than JKR's ending! I much rather like to see Severus live and come out not guilty in the end and Harmione's part being such a good shocker...JKR should have stolen your ideas LOL. Thank you for sharing your talent with all of us Snap lovers out here.

ok. review #2:

love it.

As you know, I thoroughly enjoyed Tea and Sympathy and I am SO glad this was written, because I was wondering the whole time what happed between them. Thank you!

Yeah! I'm so glad that you added this to your story. I wanted to know what happened between thee two of them when I was reading Tea and Sympathy. This was great just like your other story. It was funny how Harry responded to the knowledge that Snape and Hermione were romantically involved. hehe. I liekd that they began to respect each other at the end. Very good. It makes me want to read tea and sympathy again. :D

Til later readings

This was a great companion to "Tea and Sympathy"!

I was very, very curious, and now I'm very pleased. I've been talking Harry Potter in the last few weeks, with friends who do and do not write, and you've fixed up the part that truly bothered the writers. Double-agents eventually must come out on one side. In a case such as this, the double agent would have done unforgivable things for one master, in interest of serving the other. A line eventually has to be drawn, and that's when the final act is made. The seventh book never gave the chance for explanation, or for a reconciliation with one Mr. Lupin.

Conan Doyle is a very appropriate work for anyone who will deal in observation, and the other touches fit just right.

The events fit perfectly, the characters interact naturally, and both description and dialogue are dead-on. The best part? Harry Potter and Severus Snape, from book-canon to reasonable adults in fifteen thousand-odd words.

This Jocelyn is your best work so far imo. Well this and Dumbledore's men. This story is very powerful and compact and intriguing, tightly woven. I read it before Tea and Sympathy and to this date I have only read the starting and ending points of Tea and Sympathy relating to this side story. I am sure it will be good too but I'm just not into romantic stories at all, especially when main character is not Harry, even when I find the couple in it oddly fitting.

At 1st when I read it and realized that the author is your mum, I was left gaping at the screen in shock and was like "Her mum writes even better than her..". But it turned out to be you yourself. The little of what I've read of Tea and Sympathy your mum is a very good writer herself, writing seems to be a family gift here. :)

Anyway this is an excellent work really. It is one of the best Snape and Harry characterization. Its highly captivating, I've read it a dozen times. The whole Nagani hunt was very imaginative and logical and I wish things have progressed somewhat logically like this in DH too...

Oh well.. this is a very powerful one shot and a excellent one on its own even without the main story. The transition from hate to trust between Snape and Harry in so "few words" is an accomplishment I have seen no one achieving other than you. Even JKR took the easy way out in DH without any original interaction between the two. Anyway I generally like your work a lot.

This is so powerful. I am confused as I know i reviewed this before- maybe on an early account

What an experience!
Bless you!

Complete awesomeness. You and your daughter are insanely talented and I think its cool that you work together. My brother and I are attempting to write a story together. If I wasn't such a procrastinator we'd be further along, >_

Harry certainly reacted better than I thought. *sighs* Poor guy, must be hard to have the fate of the world on your shoulders. Good job as always!

Okay, I'm officially a fan. Loved the story.

Although i just got through gushing over 'Tea and Sympathy' i must say something about this fic which is the perfect accompaniment to such a great fic. Snape and Harry remain so in character through the whole thing and the insight into Snape's thoughts and emotions is beautifully captured. I really do hope to see more fics from you and your mum.

What a very beautiful story :)

It was even more fantastic than i thought it would be.
