I'm so taken with your writing style!! Some dust seems to have gotten into my eyes near the end. *sniff*

Please keep plugging away when you have the opportunity! You have a wonderful talent for capturing emotion and especially their characters!

I've been slacking in terms of reviewing your stories. No thanks to the rare times I have to get on-line, my fanfic reading habit now consists of saving numerous fics at a time for later reading. But, today I feel like I have to review this story along with Strong Poison.

The first part of this story was pure gold. I remembered how sniffing whilst I was reading had left me in a not at all attractive state. I did enjoy the happy ending very much as it is high time for Severus to finally get to live. I guess I just share your preference in angst, or perhaps it's the fact that you can write angst so well!

If you ever get around to edit this story, or even if you never do find the time... Either way I'll still devour it.

Beautiful! Simply heart warming and heart wrenching at the same time. Age and appearence has deterred too many from finding true love for too long. Rivetting story. more?

I really like this story. I like it the way it is now,but if you think there should be any changes so be it.
Thanks 4 sharing

Just realized I'd forgotten to review this. Wicked curse, particularly cruel in that it increases the distance between Hermione and him, and given all the angst in his life, to rob him of decades like that... But it all underlines a rather heartwarming result, only emphasizing one of the themes of this pairing--that ultimately age doesn't matter. Still has a feel of tragedy for me though.

OMG, you must continue this! This premise turns the whole idea of trying to make Severus younger (via time turner or whatever) on its head. Very well done. I haven't read anything like this idea.

unique idea, well written.

Really interesting chapter. Keep smiling. :-)

A lovely and wistful story... Snape deserves some happiness.

Inspiration can come in the strangest places, can't it. :-p

Great one shot! As always I love your Snape (and your Hermione). :)

Good luck with your other writing endeavours, I look forward to reading them.

Aww...this is sweet! Besides, Snape is a Capricorn, and they always have their childhood last, like any good dessert.

You write these two with such a poignant quietness...the rhythm of their interactions always seems just right to me. Lovely. :D ~Ves

i liked this story and i definately feel that snape should have some happiness, i very much enjoyed reading this =]

Sweet angsty fluff. Snape always expects rejection but Hermione's never been a half-hearted girl.

(But when are you going to finish "Strong Poison", sigh? BTW, I've updated a few things recently, if you have time for reading...)
