    oh my, you werent joking about the tissues! although more adventures from sev,alaina, harry, lexy and eileen would have been nice i also love this idea of a prequel! although if you take it as far as lily dying too i may need a new box of tissues!

    Author's Response: Yeah, this one's a lot more angsty than the last one, because it contains a lot more about death and sadness.  it's mainly about losing a loved one and then finding a new love and how it can be hard to hold onto the new one, especially when he's got emotional problems, like Severus does.  And I will be doing more with Sev's new family eventually, I just have to think about whether or not to start the sequel off when both Lexy & Harry go to school.

    aww dada home? that was so sweet, little harry is really cute! lily's parents seemed really nice the way they were pleased to see snape, i could imagine them wiping his tears when he was little

    Author's Response: They are, and they also suspect, but have never asked, about his life at home when he was a child.  I would imagine that he was always over there, and so they got to know him very well.  Bet they were surprised when Lily married James.

    Author's Response: Umm...I'm not going to say anything about Lily yet, though of course those of you who have read the series know that she does die.

    Loved Lily's parents but I was surprised that they did not go to the funeral...I mean there must have been someone else who could have taken care of Harry...I am sure that Lily could have used them there and I am sure they looked at James as a son so even though they are muggles they should have been at the funeral (didn’t expect Petunia there but it would have been the proper thing to do), also it may be a good idea for Lily to spend a few days by her parents (by Sev would cause too much gossip) ...I remember after my son’s funeral I could not stay in the house I went in and just looked at his room it was only then that reality hit and I started screaming ... my elder son held on to me just like Harry with Lily telling me it was Ok, I called my parents and waited outside until they came...it took me two weeks before I could enter the house again and by then my brothers had cleared the room... it was too much, I moved about a month later. The shock of losing a loved one really comes only when you try to settle back into the normal routine and you cannot do it alone Lily needs Sev, her parents and even Sirius and Remus now more than ever.

    Author's Response: yes, I was going to have Lily's parents at the funeral, but it was a wizard affair, so then I thought it might be forbidden by the Ministry.  I will make mention of the fact that the Evanses did have a separate service for James and the Muggle side of the family and you'll see that Lily will eventually call her parents and Remus and Sirius because she starts getting reminded of James everywhere.  And I am so sorry about your son, that is a terrible thing to have to go through. My aunt lost her son in a car accident many years ago, he was 25, and to this day she can talk about him but only for a few minutes and she has since moved out of the house where her kids grew up.

    very well done

    just watch the grammar when it comes to 'would of'

    i know you know this but its would have or would've or wher lily says he'd of liked that - he would've liked that

    sorry for nitpicking

    the story and the whole arc is awesome

    overall i give you a ten for all your fics

    Author's Response: Thanks, Bren! You rock.  And I know about that point, but it's dialect, I've noticed a lot of British speakers seem to use it in their fics, which was why I started using it in mine.  Anyway, glad you liked it, I hope to continue with it soon!

    damn that was sad! but Sirius gave him a good send off! very nice job!

    Author's Response: He sure did, but it will take some time to get used to not having James around.  The next chapter will be mostly Lily and Harry and Lily's parents.

    You are going to make us sob our little hearts out - aren't you.

    Author's Response: yeah, no doubt about it, this one's gonna be a real tearjerker.  I can write them, I just don't always like to.  My sister calls me the Queen of Happy Endings because I love books and movies that end happily and I mostly write things that end that way too.

    A Pre-Quel!!!! Brilliant!

    Author's Response: Couldn't resist it! I was home listening to some music and this scene came to me and I just had to write it down!  More to follow, of course!

    Oh dear. Are you going angsty on me Smnapegirl? Will there be happyness to come? Not that I have any problem with angst, lol. Congrats on posting a new story! It was very sad...I even had sad classical music playing inthe background to make it even more sad. I feel happy to say that I did not cry...not yet at least. There is still time, :(
    Good job, wonderfully written,
    Scorpia

    Author's Response: There will be, but this one will have more sadness running through it, as Lily tries to come to terms with James's death and Severus with his past.  But Harry will help them both, he'll be the one who makes them laugh and so forth.  But there will be a few tearjerker moments.  And here's hoping you update your fics too!

    Brilliant as usual! I think I'm gonna need a whole box of tissues for this one. Better go run to Costco, LOL! Can't wait for the next installment!

    Author's Response: OMG, you're hilarious! I think that was the funniest review I've gotten all day.  They're building a new Costco right down the street from me, LOL! Yup, this one's going to be sad but there will be happy times to offset the sad ones.
