Even in death, Dumbledore is scary. And Snape with his dramatic heartbroken drama. That's very angsty. Thank you for writing this.

This is one of my all-time favourite fics. So many wonderful touches.

'Spring term began, still dressed in the ratty, threadbare remnants of winter. It was cold, damnably cold, and the wind blew itself hoarse at all hours.'

Sigh.

Really enjoyed! This was so cute)

Fabulous! Such a great story!

great story! i love the image of severus sleeping on the couch, a big ball of drunken misery, clutching harry's old socks to his chest. pathetic but in a good way.

All your stories have been a delight.

So beautiful, and real, and warm. What a delight. Honestly, you write so well, it's a true pleasure to take the time to read your fics. You don't overuse imagery, like some authors (including myself, at times), and you use it so effectively. I loved your subtle 'socks' theme, bringing it to a close at the end. Clever and just right. Thanks for writing and sharing your stories with us. They're truly amazing.

This is a bloody awesome story. Well written and interesting from start to finish. You wrote the characters so well! Love it! I'm now off to see what else you've written...

Oh yeah, I read this one before "Coffeehouse Jazz" and this is what motivated me to read that super long one. Your way of articulating the tenderness between Harry and Severus is impeccable. The reader FEELS everything and it is just one of those fics where you can't stop reading.

I also LOVE how you have it in a single page format. I read these on my iPod as notes, and the dozen-chapter format is annoying beyond belief. So thank you so much for making it convenient and so much more enjoyable to read. Hoping for more wonderful writing from you!

I totally love this story! I don't have any real complaints. The only thing I will say is that I think the ending where Severus drinks himself into oblivion could've been more intense and emotional than it was. Other than that, which is just a preference anyway) I thought the story was wonderful! I'm off to read the other one you put up!

Awe cute! I love a happy ending. Sev's head is far too thick for his own good. Great story!

goodness that ws a looooonnnggggggggg story! i really enjoyed reading it it seemed very real n i loved that u made all sweet n simliey after the war ,ost of them seemed to be depressed nice twist in this one w/ harry doing the whole puppet thing i read this all in one sitting lol took me like an hr :D

nyways tho i do adivce u to break it up most pple like reading long stories but not this long try breaking them up into chapters a lot of pple will be daunted on the sheer lenght of it

nyways fab job n hope to read more frm u! (myb even a follow up one shot!)

This was a really cute story. Good job

This is by far one of THE best stories I have read in a VERY long time. Thank you so much for sharing this!

I think it's odd that you don't have that many reviews. It's such a great story! I absolutely loved it and would there be a sequel, I would definitely read it! Good look with writing and keep up the good work! :D
