Just wanted to say this: the way you write obsessed, vulnerable Tom is incredible. This is my favorite version of Riddle. He suffers beautifully, maybe because it humanizes him.

Anon, thank you! I strangely liked writing vulnerable Tom. He’s a character who doesn’t often show weakness or vulnerability. So that was fun to write. ...and I like making the characters suffer now and then lol Tom is definitely a character who deserves it, I’d say.

Do you know which tomione fanfiction actually started time travel cliche?

You know what? I have no idea. That would be interesting, though. Maybe it didn’t even start with Tomione? I think I remember fics, where Harry was transported back into Tom Riddle’s time as well. (...crazy, I haven’t read any fics in so long, it’s embarrassing.)

I love time travel Tomiones, though. Even if it’s cliché, it never really gets old.

I cried at the end, this is one of the best stories I EVER read. Thank you so much! I wonder if you would ever consider writing a one shot about Tom and Hermione, maybe set in the future? I'm thinking about what will happen to the world and to their relationship, but only you truly know. I just hope you'll grace your fans with more of your writings. All the best!!

Uh, this is one of those times when it’s a good thing to make people cry 😁 Glad you enjoyed the ending of Please, save me.

In the near future, I don’t plan to write any more for Please, save me. I’m glad I managed to write the last two chapter at all. I kind of procrastinated it for two years 😊That’s a new record for me lol

[winterblume-3]

Your writing is perfect! I just finished Please, Save Me and I loved how it ended! I really hope that Tom and Hermione will be happy now! But I didn’t understand something... Is the “Nothingness” related to some mistake he made when making his Horcrux? Why it stops when he’s with Hermione? Is that because he loves her and is emotionally dependant without realizing it? Her love helps his soul or something? Or is it some kind of “real” magic, like a magically constructed bond? Sorry bothering you!

Thank you, dear Anon. I’m very happy you enjoyed the last chapter of my fic <3

Yes, Tom’s descent into the ‘Nothingness’... I didn’t really explain what exactly happens with Tom there. I won’t answer it here either ;)  I can give you theories about what happened to him, though. But I’m sure there are more lol

Maybe it was how you described it. Tom learned how to love someone through Hermione. Now that he is able to feel love, his soul can’t take it to be ripped apart. That’s why his Horcrux went bad and he needs to be close to Hermione to feel better. She holds his soul together.

Or maybe: Canon Tom went through the same thing. After he created the first Horcrux, he was feeling horrible. Canon Tom felt like crumbling and was pulled into the Nothingness as well. Time passed, though, and he learned how to deal with it. It got better (although Voldemort became a bit insane on the way). In Please, save me, Tom has the option to get Hermione’s help, though.

Hi! I absolutely love your writing and am so happy you returned to finish Please, Save Me. Even after all this time, you never fail to take my breath away with the heart you bring to such dark stories! Ultima ratio and Please, Save Me are such incredible works and I hope you are still interested in writing multi-chapter Tomione stories! I am definitely interested in reading more of your amazing work! Thank you for sharing your stories!

Thank you!!!! I’m so glad you enjoyed Please, save me and Ultima ratio. Maybe now I started to write Tomione again, I’ll just continue. Who knows? We’ll see whether the muses want to stay ;)

[winterblume-3]

So pleased to see the final chapter of PSM but also strangely sad at the same time. Can't wait to read it. I love your writing! Will you be tackling any other of your wips after this? Like Bodyswitch? *winks* Thanks!

Yeees. I finally did it and posted the last chapter. I’m feeling a bit sentimental about it too lol

Maybe now I’ll go back to Bodyswitch or to that other fic I started and never posted anywhere. I don’t know yet what’s going to happen :)

[winterblume-3]

new chapter - Please, save me

I finally did it!!! It’s finished. The last chapter is online, you guys. Aw, who would’ve thought. hahaha Oh god. Be gentle with me.

Hi, omg ich finde es extrem cool noch einen tomione shipper zu treffen der auch deutsch spricht! Ist ja ein ziemlich seltener ship. xD (Ibuzoo war glaub ich auch deutsch?) Jedenfalls wollte ich mal wissen wie du eigentlich zu diesem ship gekommen bist? Was war deine erste fanfic?

Ja, es ist ja eh schon ein relativ “unbeliebtes” Ship. Und dann auch noch deutsch-sprachige Leute zu finden ist ja noch unwahrscheinlicher. Ibuzoo ist auch deutsch-sprachig, ja. Es gibt doch ein paar von uns.

Ich weiß gar nicht mehr, was meine erste Tomione war lol Ich hab zuerst eigentlich nur Harry-centric AUs gelesen. Tom Riddle/Voldemort war aber in denen auch immer vertreten. Ohne einen Bösewicht sind Geschichten ja immer langweilig ;) Ich glaube irgendwann hatte ich alle fics durch und hab dann nach anderen fics mit Tom gesucht. So bin ich dann zufällig auf Tomione gestoßen.

[winterblume-3]

hey, im a big fan of your work. i was wondering if now that "Please, Save Me" is end, will your next work to complete be Bodyswitch? or will you start with something new?

Hello :) thank you! I’m happy you enjoy my fics! 

I’m not sure what I’ll write after Please, save me is finished. Maybe I’ll get back to Bodyswitch. I haven’t planned anything yet. First I want to finish the final chapter for Please, save me. I’m sure after that something will come to me.

[winterblume-3]

Are you german? Cause your name sounds like it.

Yes. You got that right. I'm German. Winterblume means winter flower. Because I like the cold, it matches my heart 😂It's incredibly hot here in Germany right now. I wish it really was winter.

[winterblume-3]

Do you already know the day you'll post the last chapter of your fic? I love it!

Not completely sure when the last chapter will be up. It’s already written for the most part but still needs some revision here and there. It depends on when I’ll have time to work on it.

My guess would be next week, but don’t pin me down on that ;)

[winterblume-3]

I love your "Please, save me"! I'm happy you are back and saddened that your beautiful story is ending. May I ask why there is only a chapter left? I thought Hermione and Tom conflict would develop further into a full scale war. Ending it now feels a bit abrupt. Then again it would be an hassle to write something of a saga. I suppose I'd like to read your thoughts about your story. I'm sorry if I'm being confusing (English is not my first language)!

I’m happy to hear, you like Please, save me. It took me such a long time to get back to it. and yes, there is really only one chapter left. I had already planned to end it there, when I started the fic. I hope I can shape the last chapter, so it gives the fic a well-rounded ending. While there are a few sub-plots in the fic, at its core is the dynamic between Tom and Hermione. Their relationship went through a lot of changes and setbacks (those mostly thanks to Tom...) during the course of the story. In the last chapter I try to capture an important point in the development of Tom and Hermione’s relationship.

[winterblume-3]

please, save me is back yeyyy 😭💓 will there be an epilogue though? seeming as chapter 42 will be the last chapter

Hey 😊 I hope you'll like the new chapter. To your question: No, there won't be an epilogue to please, save me. Next chapter will be the final one.

“Look at that. If it isn’t my favourite Mudblood.”

Smugly Riddle noted how Hermione ceased all attempts to escape after she recognised his voice. She craned her neck so she could look behind her.

“Tom?”
