    Oh my gosh. I'm gonna cry, after all this time. :( I'm leaving late tonight to be away from my computer for several days. And NOW you decide to bring Harry back into the picture. My luck, I suppose. But I'm certainly glad that we've gotten to this point finally. Of course, I say that now, but I have no idea if this is a good or bad thing. I had the hugest grin on my face when I read that Hermione would have another meaning behind the comb, remembering immediately the story. I'm glad that Severus can at least now think that Harry is also suffering. That ending was priceless, as Hermione judged Severus's every action. I'll look forward to more upon my return.

    o.O I know that story! I read it in elementary school! It was a funny and sad story but I like that in the end they were still happy =P I hope that happens for Harry and Severus as well.

    You really made my day again. We finally get to the comfort part of this hurt/comfort story and it's just as perfect as all the previous chapters. The scene when Hermione sits on the bed beside Severus and rubs his back is so sweet. Not overdone and they are both so much in-character, just wonderful.
    I'm curious to see the confrontation with Harry, but I also wonder about something else. Some chapters ago I started to think that Neville may very well suffer from unrequitted love, but not to Luna anymore. Is he in love with Snape? Ok, I know that probably sounds a bit bizarre, but is he? The risks he took to get Snape out of "The Dust's" clutches (e.g. the stunt with the polyjuice) were rather high. And his recent reaction, the way he tries to keep in touch with Snape. Well, I can't help but wonder. Oh, and of course I'm very curious to see how Harry, Ginny and their son are doing.
    You got me hopelessly hooked on that story. I hope for many more updates.

    Hermione has, in the past, been very good at breaking into Snape's place and stealing his stuff....

    I've never heard of that story, but it's a point, of course. Snape doesn't think that Harry may be staying away out of consideration for him - even though he told him to.

    Two Britpicks here. "Honey" is a very unusual endearment in Britian - afaik I've only heard it used here twice in my life, both times by working-class Scots. The British equivalent would be pet or sweetheart or sweetie. And we normally say shop, not store, except in the case of department stores, convenience stores and DIY stores the size of aircraft hangars. And even in those, you would walk across the shop, not the store.

    Oh my that was just sad. Severus is just torturing himself over this and why hasnt Harry come for him. Is he respecting Severus's wishes that they remain apart. I loved how you wrote this, I just feel the emotion here

    I find it rather interesting that Severus is accusing Harry of having not been really in love with him, simply because Harry didn't chase after him, and instead paid him his due respects and stayed away. It very well maybe attributed to Severus's state of mind, but yes of course if Harry was "Madly" in love, he would have chased after Severus (which at that time would have gotten Snape upset), but that doesn't mean that Harry didn't or doesn't love him equally if not more than someone who IS madly in love. It is too bad Severus, understandably, wouldn't listen to what Hermione had to say of Harry, although it probably would have done well to listen. Interesting again, and I look forward to more. Although I hope we reach rock bottom soon, so we can start an upclimb. I'm beginning to think that this is a bottomless well.

    There isn't any easy solution. He thinks if he suffers in silence he can spare Harry, yet if Harry ever finds out that's happening - especially if Snape dies - he'll be crippled by guilt. And he doesn't think that Harry may have similarly emotionally-contorted reasons for not seeking *him* out, because he doesn't expect people to consider his feelings to that extent.

    Very nice bit of business with him feeling honour-bound to try to shrug Hermione off, whilst hoping she won't let him. Hermione too is young enough to be his daughter, and a former student, but he lets her comfort him because she acts so much older than she is.

    W.re. Neville btw, he will feel especially bad about having had to watch Snape be tortured, because of what happened to his parents.

    I think "whereas two nights of the week, he took the Dreamless Sleep" should have been "whereby...".

    Every time I read the next chapter, I get chills about the way you wrote a particular passage or how you articulated Severus' emotions. It's really amazing that you are able to do this level of writing every time.
    Amazing.

    The really sad part is this is best that Severus has ever felt--enduring the empty void, without active torture or manipulation--thanks to Albus, for helping to make his earlier life at Hogwarts hell, to Voldemort, to Albus again, and then to Harry, because of Albus. It's somewhat better than being left to rot in the Shrieking Shack, because it could change, but so far it seems that Snape is simply caught in the same trap he's been in all his life. And he's right--Harry's never been one to worry about rules before, why should he now? Harry's been taught that everything a Gryffindor does is right, after all. Maybe now he has qualms--but why should Snape believe in them? It was his own actions, and Harry's at the last, that finished the previous torture sessions, not anything the others did. Yes, Hermione offered him a quantum of solace and rest, but that can't last life long. How can he believe anyone really loves him?

    Hey there! I had to catch up after not reading for a while. My, book one was certainly very impressive. I can imagine how proud and accomplished you must feel after having created something so well-written, entertaining, and elaborately plotted out. I applaud you for providing us with such fantastic fan-fiction. As for book two, I can't wait to see where this is going. You've helped me develop a deep liking for Hermione as well as a stronger appreciation for Ron. Hugo is wonderful, as usual, and Neville is one of my favorite characters in your universe. I'm absolutely dying to see what's become of Harry. I have this feeling he let Ginny go in favor of pining away for Severus Snape. I do so hope this story has a happy ending; Snape has always endured nothing but suffering and self-sacrifice and it's high time he was granted absolution in its fullest form. As usual, you keep me on the edge of my seat and always craving more. Looking forward to chapter 39!

    Your faithful reader,
    Mike
