Done! I love it! It’s so full of details and ideas... I never was a Snarry shipper but you’ve made me like it. The concept is brilliant (wink wink) and I just can’t sum up all that I liked in this long story in one page. Even Dumbledore. I have to admit I don’t get the idea on the very last line, even if I understand its purpose.
Thank you for putting so much time in this.

Oh god, this chapter made me cry!

That whole business of Lucius making sure he dies first in order to break the link between Snape and Tom is exceptionally clever and original.

I can't believe in Spinner's End being in Weston Super Mare, though. Weston is a shabby-genteel Victorian seaside resort, full of slightly run-down grand hotels and shingle beaches and amusement arcades.

Eee - it's possible the Cheshire Cheese has got quieter since the newspapers moved out, but when I worked on Fleet Street in the 1980s you couldn't get within 50 yards of the Cheshire Cheese for the crowds spilling out of it along the street. I worked just up the road from there for five or six years, and never saw the inside of it, or even got within touching range of the building.

It has to have been London Zoo to which the Dursleys took Harry and Dudley - as far as I know there's no other zoo anywhere near Surrey that's big enough to have a reptile house.

This was so beautiful. Completely unique and utterly enthralling. Thank you so much.

Such a great and touching story. It certainly deserves more recognition.

OMG. This is definitely one of the best stories I've ever read in this fandom! Or any other, for that matter. Beautifully written, well-developed plot - and I was in tears for the first half or so of this chapter.

Excellent story. I've Favorited it.

Stumbled on this while browsing into the myriad of HP fics and didn't regret it for a second. Well done! One of these amazing stories that stay with you for a long time.
Thanks for sharing

This is so great!

I am awed by this fic. I can't say how many times I cried. At the thought of naming Ginny's baby Ron, this made me feel all the emotions possible. Thanks for writing such an awesome pic!

I've read this again... And I'm dissolved in tears. Dear Merlin, what you've done to me. I'm sobbing - with sadness and joy. Thank you.

Hi! A great fan of this truly beautiful literary work.

I just wanted to let you know how brilliant and amazing this is. And I keep wondering why this fic doesn't have more reviews, more faves, and more follows. Because, obviously, it deserves MUCH, MUCH more.

The way you wrote each character was simply remarkable. They kind of stayed in character, but at the same time not. I don't really know how to explain it. Just that, as I read this, I could imagine how each character grew from their experiences. How Severus struggled to cope, I think, but ultimately resigned himself to fate. If you get what I mean. Severus' character, for this story, and in my opinion, could not have been written anymore perfectly.

And Harry. Oh Harry. He is a piece of artwork. I absolutely adore how you wrote him. He shows childish enthusiasm, but at the same time shows a weariness of the world that only a person, really an adult, who has gone through hell and back can emulate.

I also appreciate how you wrote each place in startling vivid detail. It was like I could SEE what the place looked like. You're descriptions were spot on, and I would definitely visit some of the real places you wrote onto the story.

I admit, I cried when Severus died, and I kind of hated you a little bit for killing him. Well, not really hate. Hate is such a strong word after all. Maybe, it was more of a dislike? Ah, but, I'm getting off topic and rambling. Anyway, I would also like to say the way you ended the story was lovely, and I immediately regretted hating you.

Sorry for this looooong review, but I really, really, really LOVE this fic. :)

I hated you very much for the chapter before this. I cried and raged for hours before I had enough time to come back and read this chapter as well and now I feel like a horrible human being. It's like the revelation I got when reading the books and it turns out Snape was actually one of the best good-guys in the story who lived and died for love. I wanted to gouge my eyes out then in shame for thinking so viciously of him before and now I want to do it again for thinking so badly of you.
But seriously, killing Sev when there finally looked like there would be hope for him was very cruel. At least you made it up however so now they can bother be happy forever together.
Thank you for writing this story. It has been probably one of the very best I have ever read and it was an honor to do so. You are very talented.

This was one of the best Snarry stories I've ever read. I was on pins and needles until the very end then you had me crying with happiness. I can't believe it doesn't have more hits or reviews.

Brilliant! Oh, so brilliant and gorgeous. If only you knew how many times you made me cry. Tears running down my face and sopped up by my sleeve. Terrible of you for writing such a wonderful and enthralling tale. There's so much about it that I loved, that I can't even begin to tell you. Thanks and thanks and thanks so much for putting this all together and letting me read it. This story will always be a benchmark for me in the upper heights of all of the stories I've read on this site-including your other stories! God...I'll be thinking about it for days.
