I've been reading the story for a few days now and I really did love it. It is quite different from the normal "and everyone ends up in a house together, lets see how they interact" set up. First off, there was very little focus on past angst which was refreshing. Whenever we needed a reminder, you gave it to us without dwelling on it too much. I also liked that you didn't have anyone object to the relationship. Sure Malfoy made fun and Potter may have blushed, but many stories take that sort of antagonism too far.
I think my favorite part of this story is that it focuses on Snape. His feelings and wants. I've rarely seen a story done from Snape's point of view. Even more rare is a fic that doesn't stray here and there to another person's POV besides Snape. The reader can relate to his confusion and being out of place much more when they know only how much he knows. In that line of thought, you made Hermione seem sexy and mysterious without once having him call her beautiful or any other (at this point in fanfic) trite adjective. His thoughts and the relationship felt right.
There are many other things that made me smile, like the sink notes and him using her shampoo. I think I'll read the story again around new years so that I can notice more of those little details and be in the mood for the holiday scenes.
Fantastic fic. Thank you for writing it. |

Very Snape-ish way of giving comfort. :) |

I just hope Severus is more creative than my boyfriend, who likes to buy "something useful"... ;) |
