Oh wow, this is possibly one of the best Snape fanfictions I've read so far. Your storyline is original and exhilarating, and I love it!

A fabulous story

Thank you for this story. It is brilliant! It is a bit sad that Severus must be Sam, but I think that he likes it, because he is with Lily.

Oh! It was nice! I liked it! I preferred that Severus lives as Severus, not Sam, But we don't get always what we want, now do we?

I find it hard to believe that Malfoy bothered to come and say Dark Lord hadn't killed Severus! But at same time it was a very interesting scene!

This whole story was excellent! I know it was written quite some time ago, but I read it all today and was very pleased. It was the first Harry Potter fanfiction I can recall reading and I enjoyed it quite a lot!

Brava! Excellent story.

OMG! I just spent the last I don't know how many hours reading your amazing story! Loved it! I'll definately read other stories! I loved the ending - Sev/Sam deserved happily ever after :)

That's a marvelous oath, and an even better proposal.

I'm so happy that Sam and Lily are living such a wonderful life.

Ok, and what happens when one of the kids gets The Nose?

Lovely chapter!

Excellent chapter. Goodbye to Snape.

As for James, perhaps he does not realize that he is simply setting himself up as a target. Also, I suspect a young Gilderoy Lockhart is going to resent James moving in on _his_ position as the Cutest Guy of the Wizarding World.

That was interesting having Lucius Malfoy show up to the 'funeral'-it's surprising he even knew it was going on and when to go there. Also, it was unlike him not to want to help out on the cost of the stone (though quite likely Lily would have thrown his Galleons in his face).

Here's hoping Lucius really believes that Snape is dead, mind you.

I really enjoyed this. The story is well-crafted. Sometimes the inner monologues approach cliche, but even there they don't fall over the edge, and generally they are interesting and original.

Mechanical errors were more frequent than I'd prefer - you switch homophones a lot, eg the verbs 'bear' and 'bare' are reversed ('bear' means to hold or withstand, 'bare' means to remove clothing, you have it vice versa), your/you're; almost every time you mean to express certainty, you say 'defiantly' (which means rebelliously) rather than 'definitely'. Still, the meaning is always clear; it doesn't really disrupt the cadence of the text.

Thanks so much for posting this, really fun read.

nice story! i cant stop reading! I loved it!

Hi! I really like this story. I noticed a few small errors, like muggle was sometimes spelled muggel but it didnt bother me. Congrats on a nice long story!

EeveeFlame

i got to say this is a great story mabe one of the best of this pair

Very nice chapter.

And yes, Severus Tobias Snape deserves a memorial. He was killed by both the DEs and the side of the 'Light', neither of whom wanted him the way he really is.

Fortunately, Lily does.

Although I am surprised that she doesn't get harassed by James or Sirius for the sin of not falling in love with James.

Love the nephew-he sounds so very sweet! (though I expect that 'his majesty, the baby' has been known to be a tad upset in the middle of the night).
