Reviewer: ARim (Signed)
    Thank you so much for completing this lovely story.I enjoyed it deeply.
    It gives me a glimpse of what your other story, a Work in progress, would feel like. (still hopeing...) Your Harry, in there, is intelligent, collected and thoughtful. Rarely seen .You have described that Snape's inner dilemma very well. Thank you. More, please, when you have the time and inspiration.
    So many marvellous stories are left hanging forever,a heart-breaking habit for a reader, and the 6 per cent, that are finished, are that much Better for it. Doesn't it sadden you, too, when a lovely gem or gripping, emotionally true story just peters out?
    Happy springtime,
    A grateful reader

Harry hears a voice singing to him, but cannot remember who is singing to him or what all the words are. Finally, he finds his answer in a most unexpected place. Written for the Hush now challenge by Night shadesydney150

    oh - sniffling.
    and after Jan 14. '16..
    an Irish, Welsh Londoner... much, sorely missed.
    Love has to be strong to encompass horrible death.

One unlucky hit with a strange spell. That's all it took to alter the course of Harry's life - and everyone else's life around him. Bound to stay within ten feet of each other, Harry Potter and Severus Snape have to learn to get along or die trying.

But sometimes in the hardest of times, one can learn things never imagined possible. After all, the past doesn't define the future.

    Hello authoress,
    What a cruel Place to stop, please stop torturing boys, and sweet protective potions teachers,( remember Alan Rickman, our Sev, is known and praised for his finishing his work thoroughly to a T)
    you are abandoning a brilliant fanfic - Or else tell us you can't, won't write more, need to get payment or icecream or chocolate before another word is inked down.
    Really.
    Grr. It has the same number of chapters as the last time I read it. Write another. (16-ish) (or more)
    ..
    Please?

    Author's Response:

    Hi there! Thank you so much for reading and enjoying my fanfic. You don't have to worry, though! I haven't abandoned it. I am planning to update it soon, probably in the month of Feb. :)

    But... I'm always up for some ice cream. :P

    'Random story' popped up with your fic - and I think it sounds good - will give it a go.
    But, I wonder, were you inspired by Ingmar Bergman's film: 'Hvisken og Raab'? Translated it means:'Whispers and Screams'.....
    Just an idle thought.
    Thank you for writing for us all.

    Ohh.. * laughs loudly*
    what an ending!
    That unmistakable glare, and as that kind of pussy-hat-pink bird -
    *collapses in chuckles again*
    Thank you , and you write wonderfully, am so pleased you have more than one story for us, because I really do not want to iron all the linen waiting in a large-ish basket in the drawing room .... this is a good excuse, (sits happily down in front of the pc. with a mug of strong Italian coffee, but no vanilla cream biscuit- pout.)

    Lovely story.
    There is a recurrent problem with the verb-tenses:
    "The chair looked (past) uneasy.., but she found (past)
    that it gives (present) her back...."
    present should be past tense.
    It is much easier to read a sentence when the tenses match all the way.
    Please check the tense-rules.
    To help, try William Strunk and E. B.
    White's :'The Elements of Style'. It is a small pearl, pocket-sized, about
    the rules of usage, principles of composition, form, use of words, and brief notes on style. It will help you,because you write with imagination, but the verbs, jangling, catapult the reader out of the story's universe.
    Good luck, and happiness with the work.

When an accident in potions causes imaginable damage to 3 different boys, perceptions start to change. One in particular of a dark and stern man, as truths start to come to light. How does one heal and move on from something like this? Who is left the task of picking up the pieces?

    Oh drat - Of course AD, PP get to Force Severus to give too much - with guilt and no gratefulnes- Isn't it the rule that the Slytherin scapegoat is always overworked, No one defends his rights, Lets just stamp on him. And he has to take three,three! damaged children. Instead of sharing the work between them all. or setting up a rota. They have Magic and House-elves.
    I am furious on Severus' behalf.
    To be an exhausted caretaker does not help the vulnerable young 'uns; or Severus himself.
    His heart is in the right place. Poppy and Albus are just ducking their responsabilites -Albus epecially needs to learn the unselfishness caring for a child would teach him -the blind goat. He should help SS, firstly by explaining the situation to Harry's friends. they hate SS and doubt him which is not needed. PP should help SS by being a
    'call and I'll come night or day' babysitter.
    No wonder our Potions Master was so disillusioned by his 'friends? and colleagues? Voldemort was at least an honest enemy.' Poor chap.

    Author's Response: It'll get better, Severus needs their love just as much as they need his.

Naming his eldest son was easy. Naming his second was something else entirely.

    Ha.
    ... Thank you.
    He does live and they do meet.
    Ah, it feels much better.
    Ps.
    Glitch: ..'She is Ron's sister and Harry's husband'? eh? His Wife, I hope, or did you bluntly mean she has the trousers on too much in their marriage?
    I never did like she wasn't more loyal to her Harry, and could 'persuade' the intransigent,pigheaded Ron to let Harry love Severus uncontested, and grieve over his loss.
    Ron has his Arthur; and I do like Ron, he is an everyday chap, much needed between the Hero and the genius.
    He is brill in Friendlyquark's fic:
    "A Terrible Temptation."
    Thank you for writing this poetic vignette about Harry and Severus -
    I return to it.
