Reviews for Being Hermione Granger

What a description of Severus' character! It's certainly a *possible* reading...at the same time, it's not the one I think best fits the vignettes we're shown in canon. (I'm not going to try to explain why, because that would be long and this isn't the place.)

Even though I don't agree with it, I'm very glad to see it, because...

I'm utterly repulsed by it. Just *squicked*. I *guess* there are some men like that in the world...but I'm not one of them and if I had a sister who was interested in one of them, oh my GOD. BLECCCHHHH!!!!! If canon Severus was like that, Lily made the right choice. (Well, no. James Potter had some serious red flags. She still should have found someone else. But not your Severus.)

And if (as I believe) he wasn't....well, it's *very* plausible that she mistakenly *thought* he was, and that because of this any interest she'd ever had in him was irrevocably crushed.

So *thank you* for a possible explanation of Lily's attitude.

BTW -- with the gender differences you referenced there's actually FAR more within-gender variation than cross-gender variation. The average man is *slightly* more likely to have meaningless sex for "release," and also *slightly* more likely to mind a physical than an emotional affair. At the same time, it's only a *slightly* unusual woman who fits the "male" profile to an extreme. Strange but true.

Madam Pomfrey's insight into Severus' love life/lack there of was exactly how I interpreted it! I always imagined that once he found somebody he'd love he would be passionate for them in a way that bordered on obsession - but then.. who wouldn't want Snape to be obsessed with them! I have fallen head over heels in love with this story! The plot is fantastic and the writing is amazing! Love!

Love your story. Love the plot, how it's written and it's fun to read. :)

Some very intriguing ideas for Hermione (and us) to consider. I'm hoping that it is Snape's way of telling her he has noticed her interest, and encouraging her to keep hoping while he recovers and thinks about his situation. He certainly seems to have been rethinking the way his life (and expected death) can be. I'm really enjoying the subtlety of your story :)

I have just finished reading this story all the way through and I am incredibly impressed by your gift. You immerse the reader in everyone's emotions, without pointing too obviously. You make it clear that Snape feels something, while leaving him mysterious. Just enough. And Hermione is perfect. I'm so glad I found this.

Yea, the potions working. Thanks for the quick update.

Well isn't Snape being sly. I feel there is something in that book he wants her to read before he gives her the symbolized plant. Maybe? I feel he is, as usual, wickedly deceptive on showing his feelings and confusing Hermione. What are they becoming?

two simple words: LOVE IT! Keep up the good job...
