OH! Lovely!!

I don't think of myself as an overly sentimental person, but I get all gleeful and sighful when Lily/Snape shippers play with the "Always" and you did it beautifully!

I also really liked what you've done with the bits we got in canon and the way that Snape's Patronus was created! I also REALLY, REALLY liked the idea of Lily coming back as a ghost... it always seemed weird to me that in the Wizarding world, where there are so many ways to keep in track with the living that James and Lily didn't do any of them. No portrait? No coming back as ghosts? No memories to peruse? What sort of parents were they anyway? :DDD

Great job!

"Until death do us part" FTW. Fabulous.

I think I’ve read one too many fics where Lily was going to spend eternity married to James. I guess I don’t tend to think of people being married in the after life. Thanks for reading and your comment.

I'd love to see a continuation, with Lily's ghost with him until his death. What an interesting concept, and one that has merited great results :) It's nice to see she still anchors him even in death (if grudgingly on his part hah). And love their banter as children." There were a couple grammar diddies but all in all, nice work, mystery author.

I really like the idea of Lily helping Severus find a happy memory for his Patronus. :)

Glad you like the idea. Thanks for reading and your comment.

beautiful! **claps**

delightful tale, Mystery Writer, that brings out the sweetness of these two.
I love how she feels like a steady light for him, as he looks ahead into inevitably dark times.

the deer story is a wonderful parable. lovesnape's right - this could have more episodes!

and thanks for finding a Snape family crest, that is realy wonderful.

more later... still at work.

Thank you for your wonderful prompts. I had wanted to write a ghost lily story and a patronus story for a while, and your prompts help push me to do it.

Here are a couple of pictures I found on DA that show a ghost Lily:

Here is also a picture of young Lily and Severus when they found the doe. It is also my first time doing a line and coloring with the paint bucket, so not so great.

this turned out to be such a sweet fest, lots of tenderness. I really enjoyed my gift.

I love the art, and your young Sev & Lily are just adorable.
( I cant draw kids, they always look too careworn. )

Thanks. The drawing was supposed to be a pattern for some dolls I made. I’m basically a jack of all trades a master at none.
