can't wait till the end!! Loved NoG <33 I love the way you write and your opinion on the caracters. They are just perfect.
(I slightly thout this was a bit boring on some part, maybe coz there were many words that I don't and didn't know because english is not my mother language)

but I really am waiting for update :D hope u update very soon. Can't wait 2 long ;)

I love this story line. I read the version from Harry's perspective and it just left so many things unanswered (not that I'm complaining) so I'd love to hear the rest. Are you planning on continuing this story?

I loved Nights of Gethsemane, and I'm enjoying Snape's version, in some ways better. In others, I enjoyed NoG's detail with all interactions. I look forward to reading so much more. I'm enjoying your take on Snape's personality and it's so good to see what Snape is going through through this whole situation. In some ways I wish you'd written them both at the same time kind of like one chapter to one then the other so it would be easy to remember everything per chapter that is related to the chapters I'm reading.

Look forward to read more though! Love it~

your chapter 23 seemed to have a formatting problem, the whole chapter is continuous with no spaces for paragraphs and sentences. That is my only problem with it. Good work despite the error in formatting.

well, the whole cloning thing explains why his friends thought they saw him while he was a prisoner... so once again, something we thought was done for har's benefit was fake. man this is busting a lot of bubbles. I keep hoping that he'll truely come to care for har, but it's looking like that was a potion illusion too. Was ANYTHING har felt or experienced real? if not that's just damn depressing.

The difference in between reading Snape's perceptions and Harry's is so fascinating and different. Everything is so clinical and planned from Snape's perspective, even sex. Harry always seemed to be such a reliable narrator (and even when he was lying to the readers and himself, it seemed pretty obvious), which is in line with his personality, but I often find myself completely unsure as to how reliable Snape is, at least about his own feelings and other people's motivations. Then again, Snape's more clinical, less emotional descriptions of what is occurring seems to draw into question so much of what Harry thought was real... even things that I as a reader took to be the truth. It's just amazing how you are able to do that, and is probably such a fun exercise in point-of-view. It's also amazing how Harry, as much as he knew he hated Snape, seemed to start emotionally latching on to Snape in a romantic way, almost without noticing it, while Snape still seems pretty annoyed with Harry and disturbed by what they are doing together, and still seems to have a very hard time viewing Harry as anything but a child. The discrepancy between the two viewpoints is really casting into doubt all the things I thought or took for granted in NoG, and making me wonder if I wasn't the one sort of jumping to stereotypically romantic conclusions about their interactions, rather than focusing more on how difficult the process of trust came to them both.

At first, when I started reading Invictus, I wanted to skip straight to the sex scenes, or the little instances where Snape and Harry interacted, but now I find myself even more intrigued by the moments where we see what Snape has been thinking and doing behind the scenes! It is so intriguing! I can't wait for the next chapter, as always! :)

wow. still, i'm looking forward to later when har's responses will be more natural and less potions based... i hope. As i said in a previous review. I'd be disappointed if EVERYTHING har felt here was potions and conditioning based.
I wonder how long it will take sev to actually enjoy it himself, I mean, sure he's straight but some action, even guy on guy, is better than no action right?

I'm loving this story so much! I've been rereading NoG over and over while I wait for updates here lol. Anyway, I think you're brilliant and I love your stories so much and I can't wait for the next update on this!

welll poo, as unlikely as it was i'd hoped har's eventual affection for snape wasn't potion based... silly me. :/ nothing har gets to experience... beyond the horrors of course, is genuine here. it's all potion and memory induced.

Yeah, I'm just loving this story so much atm. I've been rereading both this and NoG so much lately, it's like crack! Can't, can't, can't wait for the next chapter! :) :) :)
