I think I have to agree with Robert Frost - Fire is better than Ice.

Interesting that he prefers fire when his own name (Frost) inspires images of Ice!

Thanks for introducing me to a new poem by Frost. The only other one I know of, is of course, the famous one about Two Roads Diverging!

Yum...!

Very nice read! I like them like this, dancing around each other.

OMG!

LOVE THIS STORY!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TELL ME THERE'S A SEQUEL!

Well, I'm quite sure I've reviewed this before, perhaps on another site, but I just read this again, like the reviewer before me, like I have many times before.

There really is a charm in this short gem of a one-shot that even your wonderful, longer stories (ie. Dark Roast) do not quite capture. This story really is beautiful, very beautiful, like a snapshot of a moment in time. I'm sure I've mentioned this before too, but - especially in the mention of Lisbon! and the travelling which Snape and Hermione do - a certain air of old-world, European glamour, charm, and indeed a whiff of the romance of Casablanca, which has always been one of my favourite films. Somehow, this fic always evokes Casablanca for me.

And finally, I love the open-endedness. It is so beautiful to leave the promise of something more! I think if you ever wrote another chapter, it might lose a lot of its romance.

I've read this a countless number of times on different sites...

and it never ceases to interest me.

I just love it.

I don't know why...

Maybe just the simplicity of it.

And I love both of their characterizations.

They playfully banter with each other and I like that.

And then there's how they were both "trapped by their fears".

Lovely.

great job.

that was a fabuliuse story. i read it several times over. i think i should read more of your storys.

thats so cool! the poem is tehsechs (means good in my made-up language) and the fic is great, wodnefully written.

continue to write, id love to read more

Oh-my-goodness! it's so perfect! I don't usually enjoy the pairing of it, but you've made it sound consequential, natural, as a matter of fact! You deserve all the compliments, dear. And Frost here is just the right measure of balance! You're really good! Congrats!

I think you should continue this story. It's so yummy, and awesome.

OH glad this is posted here. i faved it!

lovely!

so that teasing story was from you! I enjoyed very much reading it.

This was wonderful, dark and sweet but with a bitter undertone, just like Snape's delicious dark roast coffee. Delightful.

HOW COULD YOU END IT THERE?Do you have something against me?If you do would you please let me know?Man,a girl could get hurt like that-siting on the edge of her chair,lost in a story,and all of a sudden it you can't just end it me if you want me to beg you not to because i willmost ,this is a review isn't it?Other than the fact that it ended,good job.
