I had to go load my Snape icon just for this comment . . . ;)

Absolutely brilliant! I loved how Hogwarts conspired with Snape to help students once the castle knew Snape was trying to help.

The Christmas stocking made me cry and was so absolutely beautiful. I loved all the things the other teachers said to him.

Thank you for such a wonderful story!

I made you cry!!! ***win*** Thanks so much for reading and taking the time to comment, you made my day when I read this :)

First, let me apologize for not responding on the day this was posted. I have not been online much lately, and I didn't even see it until today

I'm so glad it pleased you! All your prompts were wonderful (and as I said, the others may turn up eventually too) but this story just flowed out, like it was already written. Although I enjoy reading all kinds of Snape, canon!Snape is still my favorite and every time I read the books or see the movie, my heart just aches for him that last year -- I'm gratified beyond words that those things came through, and that you feel the same. Thank you!!

Liked this a lot -- the "stocking" scene especially was wonderful, real lump-in-the-throat stuff.

[delphipsmith]

Aha, a throat lump! My work here is done...

Oh, you made me cry as he took items out of his stocking. What a lovely story!

[delphipsmith]

Woo-hoo, I made TWO people cry!! Glad it pleased you -- thanks so much for reading and taking the time to comment :)
