wow. the attention to detail was amazing, i can see tonks doing the striptease, the malfoy potions room, snape choosing the bottom of his foot for the tattoo. i also really liked the portrayal of the malfoys, i think lucius would have gotten maudlin and narcissa overwrought, but only with snape. also, i liked the your snape, bitter, direct and realistic. and also really hot. you made him heroic as heroic as harry ever was and gave him a happy ending to boot!

That is very good indeed! Ingenious, interesting, logical with canon, and most satisfying. Thanks!

Lovely! This is Snape/Tonks at its very best. Loved the characterisation, the hopping between timelines, and the plot (there is definitely a plot there, a very engaging one). I enjoyed reading this very much. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I still think it's light on plot, but no one seems to mind so I suppose I should pipe down about it. XD

Not a pairing I've ever read - but you capture Severus perfectly here. A lot of writers make the mistake of turning up the snark and the Victoriana and thinking they've got a Snape. But they forget the gravitas, the mournfulness that lies underneath his barbed words. So this is my absolute favorite part of the piece:

"I will say this once and it will go no further. She was my friend, my best and only friend for many years and I failed her and I betrayed her. She was sister, confidante, partner in crime before the crimes were real. I loved her. She is gone."

Just... lovely, so grave and full of self-recrimination and loss.

By some happy coincidence, I came across your story while looking for my last fic - I was never in fandom, but I read a lot - and when I read chapter nine, I thought, This is what I needed to be able to leave. So thank you, Scheherazade, for a fitting thousand and first story.

I must agree with a lot of the other posters have said. This is a brilliantly woven story and I think characterizations were spot on. You've given us a far more well-rounded Snape than Jo ever did and I just have to <3 you for that because I adore every flawed inch of him to pieces. I also have to give you *squishies* for that conversation with Lucius. The openness between the two men was just fabulous. So thank you so much for a wonderful read! And I'm so glad you found a way to give Sev and Tonks a happy ending after all.

Wow! I've only read one other Snape/Tonks story and that was great. But this? Wow! I know it's not the best feedback but I just wanted to let you know there was one other completely floored by how well told this story was. I'm afraid you've spoiled me for other stories of this pairing. Thank you for writing it!

Well, it took me long enough to read this. And wow, it was excellent. I'm sorry I lost track of it because it was a wonderful. I loved the characterizations of both Snape and Tonks. Well done.

A friend sent me a link to your story today and I'm so glad she did. It's a wonderful story, you have written the ending that Rowling should have written.

I'm a sucker for sentiment and the sentiment you have put in this story is worthy of a John Ford movie. I love the entire scene in his rooms, especially the tatoos and the twist at the end was really worth waiting for.

This story is just amazing. Well-done! Severus is delightfully in character most of the time. The story follows canon so well and never falls into that sacharrin trap. And plottless? I think not. It has a built in plot simply by keeping to canon most of the way. The plot twist at the end is a creative and smooth one. Thanks for a great story.
