I don\'t get it. How can Hermione be 16 if she\'s in her seventh year? We know her birthday is 19th September (according to J.K. Rowling), she turned 12 right at the beginning of PS, 13 in CoS etc. so she will turn 18 at the start of her seventh year. Sorry, I only just started reading this story, I guess you\'ll explain it later. Did she start Hogwarts early because she\'s so clever? And even if she was only 16, why would people think that was icky? It\'s perfectly legal to have sex at 16 in Britain - admittedly not with one\'s teacher, but still! Sorry again, I bet this has been pointed out in reviews already. I will get on with reading now!

Needfire is very well written and a deep, touching story. For the most part, I really like it, but one thing continues to bother me. According to JKR, Hermione would turn 18 right at the beginning of her 7th year. She is one of the oldest in her class, not the youngest. She was 16 for most of 5th year.

Hi, Areola and Melisande88,

First of all: your amazing, marvellous and thrilling

Oh you guys!!! These last two chapters were great. What a wonderfully written fic. Loved the ending. Thanks for entertaining me.

you did an wonderful job writting this story. i hope you all will write more. you have an amazing talent.

what a wonderful, well written story. Can\'t imagine how I didn\'t know about this before. Very touching.

I may never be able to express how wonderful I find this story. I have been down to the depths of insanity, too. And I too have fallen in love in that place, and thought for a time he might save me. While I am whole- or at least functioning- again, it has yet to be time for us. But I hope. And your story helps. Thanks. It was so beautiful.

All I can must right now is a WOW! I know it\'s piddly and doesn\'t do your story justice, but it was such a long tale. A dark tale. A tale w/ such heartbreak that I wanted to cry. A tale w/ such pain that I almost couldn\'t bare to see what you wrote next. Then to have it all end on such a blessed note was well... More then I ever could have imagined. This is such an epic story. I loved it, even when I didn\'t understand it. I think it\'s a classic for sure!

BRAVO BRAVO! Awesome job. I really enjoyed reading your story and I hope you collaborate again!

Wow, stunning story, it\'s been one of my favorites. I know you took some heat because of the squicky age of Hermione and the self-mutilation, but it made Hermione seem like a real person with the same problems the rest of us might have. And the portrayal of Snape as an love-obesssed man who was clinging to his one chance at a real relationship showed a depth of character, flaws and all. Congrats on finishing it, and I hope you write many more. I\'m a huge fan of Angst! Snape/Hermione stories and this is one of the best. :?)
