for The Stirring2/11/2023 c41 Magdalene
You’re telling me that everyone’s decided to post their FOAF while I’m on a trip with little to no internet access? T-T At least I know that there’s two one shots for me to read when I’m back hehe I’m so so so excited! (Also, thank you Nilsia and Quarantine Blues for the encouragement! Writing Snape seems like a big challenge, I don’t know how y’all do it so well :’) Not sure if my English vocabulary will do... I promise to try, though!)

Okay, where do I start...
OMG I'm having a fit because Nilsia wrote me afnajkfnakjg... really reading has always been my escape for the hard times, this fic really likes me and distracts me, so I'll keep on reading and commenting.
Thank you very much for the nice message.
For the Support Group:
I had said quite a while ago that I was going to reread all the chapters and I have come back with something I think we all had forgotten... Snape and Rosin actually had their first kiss.
It is not the passionate and super spectacular kiss that we are suddenly asking for, but it is a kiss... more like a "pico" (I don't know how to translate that into english), a small kiss, that almost doesn't count, like a lip rose but with pressure... anyway, it happened in chapter 12, when Snape was looking to see if he was causing adverse symptoms to Rosin, in Dumbledore's office.
To Les-Euphories:
I loved it, I've read it twice now and I still love it.
To Quarantine blues:
I love that you took the idea of Snape's meeting with Rosin's parents... I'll read it as soon as I have time and leave you a comment.
Others:
I apologize if my English is slipping a bit in the last few comments. I am not a native speaker and lately Im quite distracted and I know I may not be making myself understood.

Les-Euphories -
Oh. My. God.
You wrote a FOAF! I've left a longer review on the piece, but for now - You're a good writer! This is solid work - entertaining, hot, grammatically and stylistically sound. It's such a lovely homage, honoring the original while adding your own flair. Well done and THANK YOU!
Everyone else - Get a move on with your FOAFs! The time between updates isn't going to pass itself.

I made a FOAF as well, so you're not alone, Quarantine Blues. It's been a while since I've written fanfiction, but I hope you all enjoy.
To the Support Group:
Hang in there, good things come to those who wait!

Yay! We got a bio update! Nilsia's not dead, but no doubt working tirelessly to provide us with an update soon! XD
In the meantime, FOAF (titled "Wolfsbane) is up on my account, here and on AO3.
And, guys, I patently refuse to be the only one writing The Stirring fanfiction. It's your turn, now. Yes, even you, Magdalene. Your English is perfect and I believe in you. I'll even BETA if you want.
Laura - good to have you back *hug*

Dear Support Group:
I hadn't really been able to read the chapter...I thank those of you who left me messages of support, I wasn't having a good time. I am still very sad but I am getting back to my routine.
Now that I have finally read the chapter, I can't believe where it left off...I just need more. Nilsia has a real gift for writing.
Little by little trust is building between them, seeing them talk so freely makes me very happy, those are the first steps to an honest talk between two awkward people.
To Quarantine Blues:
kqkdkwkwkwkwkdkwkd and the screen vibrating... you make me feel a little old and I didn't really get to enjoy that era, because I was quite young, although I did get to see it and use it sometime.
To Magdalena8485:
Totally identified with that gif, because I have a thousand theories of how this is going to continue and for the same reason I always go back to the comments, to see what they are talking about.
I'm as addicted to the fic as I am to this chat, as I said before, I think, I have the habit of coming here once a day... I guess I'll go back to it now that I'm calmer.

I know there’s not even a new chapter (it’s been only a week! it’s fine! I’m coping just fine!) but just seeing new comments from other people as obsessed with this fic as I am makes me so happy! All day I’m like that Always Sunny in Philadelphia scene with the pepe silvia (if you don’t know what I am referencing you can search pepe silvia on youtube, but it’s that famous gif with the distressed guy in front of a wall full of pictures ands pages pinned with red strings looking completely insane) hahaha “Now let's talk about The Stirring. Can we talk about The Stirring, PLEASE, support group? I've been DYING to talk about The Stirring with you all day ok?!” yup, that’s me. I’m literally just waiting for someone to comment so I can say something T-T I told myself that I would try to be normal about this fic but... that evidently did not work lol
to Floop and Quarantine Blues: I’m sooo beyond excited about your fics! Please write anything you want and I’ll happily read it! If even a bio update from Nilsia (which yes I also noticed it hasn’t been updated yet :c) or a new comment on this story makes me excited, imagine a new fic. Even if it’s just one paragraph, I’ll happily read it. Unfortunately I’m not much of a writer (not sure if it’s too obvious that english is my second language lol - so I don’t feel very confident yet but I’ll support anyone else who wants to write something!)
You asked for FOAF ideas and like I said, I’ll happily read anything you come up with, but I’d loooove to read more about Snape in this story! Like, his POV? Maybe on a random situation or an specific chapter. Maybe not his pov but just him interacting with other characters (cough cough Róisín) I don’t know... I’m here for anything smutty too oops

Floop - Alright, it's a deal. Blood pact. Fanfiction-of-a-fanfiction (FOAF) is happening. Probably just smutty and crack-y and short. I'm not overly blessed with ideas myself lol. And this is Nilsia's world, anyway.
Snape is female-coded, eh? I can see that in Fanon. Bunch of women writers lol. Don't keep your character analyses all to yourself, though - links/explanation please!
Support Group - FOAF ideas?

“Were you suggesting I get a move on?"
I quite liked this line as a fave moment. I like the glimpses of his sense of humour!
quarantine blues - please write a fanfic of a fanfic! I’d read the hell out of it! I’d love to see what your take on it… I could try to come up with something myself. Not overly blessed with ideas but I’ll have a think!
sonderful sgdjeonekeneubbnakskakajskk was pretty much my first reaction to this chapter. I like the power balance between them too and also it’s interesting that he cedes power to her. I’ve read a few interesting character analyses about how Snape is female coded in lots of ways. He’s so interesting!
nilsia I hope you’re well! Happy. Contented. Writing furiously etc etc

Dear Support Group:
Has it really only been a week since the update? I'm dying over here. Really, they're going to find me slumped on my desk one day, just dead, with Nilsia's Bio page on the screen. Is anybody else getting worried that the Bio hasn't been updated? Is anybody old enough to remember when we had MySpace pages and could poke each other?
*poke*
sonderful - 'aodjoqhdoqwhdiuhawiushaohSPjdpqjdwehfouahdouwa, etc. !
magdalene8485 - Thanks for the info about Rigel Black! I had no idea fanfics of fanfics were a thing. There's SO MUCH Rigel Black Chronicles stuff on Ao3 it's absolutely insane!
Okay, I could write something. But I don't want to be the only one. Writer's pact, anyone? Show you mine if you show me yours?
To everyone else - Are we done with favorite moments and casting calls? What happens now?!

To support group:
So when a discord gets started (to rave about this fic), I purpose we allow key smashes. Particularly because this chapter is literally 'aodjoqhdoqwhdiuhawiushaohSPjdpqjdwehfouahdouwahodhsufhaeouhsiaHDOAHDUSHFIUSEGFYUESGFDIAOHDAOHDUOahdoabcisiusahvsjfpjfpiajdouqhduwadyibachibaiojapijxaipdjaidoabdiagdiawgdyawgduavdasufcauygcdavsxuasvcuyasbuyagfyuaefbiusefbiusehfiusdbc' I have no other words.
To Nilsia:
I really like the dichotomy between Rósín and Snape, the balance of power between them that keeps switching during the intimate parts of their relationship. Very clearly both are uncomfortable the relationship, but are wholly reliant on each other. I think this chapter paints Snape in a more positive light and shows how much he's grown since Lily's death. He has to exist in a world that is repugnant to him now. He has to continue spewing anti-muggleborn sentiment, despite an obvious disdain for the rhetoric. His absolute disgust in seeing the poster and enchanting a knife to get rid of it. Even trying to figure out how to remove the plaque. The progression of this change is subtle, in a good way, it still lends itself to support Harry's previous narrative that he is evil. But it doesn't allow for a plateau of his character or the completed thought that he is evil. And even when Rósín is in her own head and anxious, she still sees and understands that he is changing.

Ahh AMAZING CHAPTER!
oh, I had to track back a few chapters, but ! I LOVE this little thing you did here on Snape watching her watch him:
chapter 31: “ He slipped his fingers beneath his waistband and slid off his briefs, watching her as if curious to see whether she would dare look at him but she averted her eyes upwards, worried somehow that if she saw his erection she might get nervous and change her mind“
chapter 41: “(...) She felt her cheeks heat even more when she realised she'd been staring. Glancing at his face, she saw that he'd been watching her watch him, his eyes narrowed with lust.”
So much can happen in 10 chapters! Like everyone else already said in the comments, I’m happy to see them become more comfortable with each other :)
Thnx for the update! I can’t wait for moreeee

Holy mother of Merlin!
This is bad, this is real bad. Why do I feel like I am going through the same feelings as her.!?
I cringe but I don't sheeesh. I just finished all the chapters in like a day without any breaks? This thing got be hooked!
Thanks for the story? I didnt know i needed it, but i apprechiate it. Even tho it is still a weird feeling to know a girl (sorry idk why i feel like she is really young even tho she is 19, probably because she is his student) has sex with Severus Snape.
I like it tho, this is now my guilty pleasure. Like the story aswell- you gave them all some personality, like it! Thanks alot and keep the good work up!
(Love your writing style btw!)
With kind regards
