Hello all,  I am a 53 year old from NZ.  Although SSHG is how I started and still my main pairing, I'll give pretty much any pairing a try, whether it be reading or writing.  Sev and Herms need a bit of variety at times. ;)

Please let it be Snape who wants to speak to "Hermione Granger. Alone."  Please let him be gentle.  Please let Hermione be courageous.  Please...Beth

Not telling... lips sealed. :)

...Snape released his sticky, softened penis and smiled.  I love you, Grace.  He didn't hear the soft gasp from the corner of the room.Elizabeth Burke's portrait must have been in Severus' quarters.  If Severus ever gets so much as a whif of this rumor Elizabeth started, Severus will absolutely have a conniption fit.I gotta go see just how many people know about Severus and Grace.  Veeerrryy interesting.Beth

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Nosy old portrait, eh? :)

I'd thought that Blaise was interested in Hermione, and I'm glad he still wants to be friends even though he knows Severus has her heart.Rescuing Draco from certain humiliation was such a kind thing for her to do... and now I expect Severus must be thinking that both Draco and Blaise are interested in the-know-it-all.I don't even want to think of what sort of a mess can this lead to.  Poor Snape... poor Hermione.Beth

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Hehe.  I like messing with them. ;)

I knew I’d seen it somewhere before.  Oh, my word!  Mandy Brocklehurst and Hannah Abbott were reading their horoscopes in that Muggle magazine, and it took me for frickin' ever to figure out what Severus had seen before.  I'm guessing he had noticed the zodiac sign for Virgo- it looks like an M with an extra loop.  And Hermione has a tattoo like that on her hip.What a brilliant author you are!!!  And I adore this story.Beth

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

I adore you, Beth! xx:)

I am so darn proud of Luna for making Blaise wait. I like that she doesnt let him completely run the relationship. Also somoeone must do fan art of this chapter and Hermione under the desk with both hands occupied!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

I'd rather just see Sev's expression as he tries to contain himself in front of Minerva, with a hint of curl peeking out from under the desk to suggest what's going on, and the note half exposed under the files... hee :)

I love LOVE LOVE that Neville helped Snape leave w/o being seen. That is the cherry on top of the dessert! Also I think Blaise made his point very well. Go Blaise. Go handfasting!

Jumping jellybeans! Snape is going to flip that Blaise is in her room. Then again it might clue him in that he needs to get his head out of his ass and pay attention to Hermione's reactions to his words. Thank goodness the next chapter is up. Dont think I could hae stood the cliffy!

Loved it!  Thank goodness Sev is a Master Spy or it might have gotten a lot more interesting!  Looking forward to seeing Minerva's reaction to the Handfasting... Something tells me that she would be much happier if Hermione was no where near Severus ever again!

I suspect that myself. ;)

Excellent chapter! I loved that she took a bit of control -- showed she sees herself as his equal in their relationship, even if she's not his equal academically/professionally. I'm a little sad that she's berating herself over it, especially since he obviously enjoyed it. I hope she doesn't do anything rash...

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Yes, well, she just realised she should be a little more circumspect.  A few minutes pleasure is not wirth risking his job over. :D

Response from AuntieL (Reviewer)

Oh - absolutely! She shouldn't be blabbing their very private life to whomever asks, especially since they haven't done a binding yet. (Even after... I mean, how would SHE feel if she thought HE was telling everyone what she'd done?) 

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

I suppose she's pretty safe there.  Mind you, that highlights their age difference. It's a very teen thing to do to share those intimate details with your close friends. Speaking  as one of his generation, there was a little bragging by the boys, but nothing like the openness the kids have had over the last 10-15 years, and they're getting worse. Just look at Facebook and Twitter! :DHehe. Now I'm thinking of what Severus Snape would Tweet.Dunderheads nearly blew up two cauldrons today.  Roast beef for dinner.  Had a good blow job, though.

Response from AuntieL (Reviewer)

Good point (about how the younguns brag nowadays). I'm halfway between Severus and Hermione in age, although I was born in the era BEFORE video games were so very ubiquitous. And yes, I'm frequently shocked by what I see on Facebook. I work with young adults -- college age -- and advise them regularly to NOT post risqué things on facebook -- that future employers may eventually take a look at their profile.

Technically it's damn well impossible to give fellatio under a desk unless A- the chair is about six inches lower than normal height to fit under the desk, B- man involved sits at the front edge of the chair and, C- desk is 3 to 3.5 foot in depth to fit an average sized woman.But, it IS nice to fantasize we could actually do it!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Shhhh.  Don't tell everyone that! :P

Poor Blaise!  That isn't nice of Hermione to tease him with a taste of how the other half are living when he is not getting any.What is going to happen when Valentines Day rolls around?  I hope one of them is able to plan something special, and it doesn't turn into an angst fest.  It would be hard to see everyone celebrating when you can't do so (in public, anyway).Severus is amazing if he can keep his cool while Hemione and Minerva are sharing his attentions.  I thought it was incredibly hot, and yet I would kill someone if they put me in that situation.  Ah, the joy as a reader of living vicariously through others.I have read little to no fanfic in the last month as school has taken up every waking moment beyond work and kids.  This is the only story I am allowing myself to read until classes are over.  I don't know that  I even found time to review the last chapter.  What a treat to find a chapter available to read tonight!  So, don't let me down here.  Yes, you are coming to the States for a visit, and you should spend time sightseeing and visiting with friends in the fandom, but I think we can all agree that writing should be your number one priority.  :)  We do have computers, pens and paper, 24 hour coffee bars, or whatever you require.  Come on, I need you! *is desperate, whiny, and weary*Okay, I'll keep until you return to writing.  Have a wonderful and safe trip!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Gee, you're getting bossy for someone who hasn't come up with the pink frilly knickers yet... *taps foot* :P

Response from HBAR (Reviewer)

Don't kid yourself, you like me bossy. ;)  And to be honest, the pink frilly knickers are 75% done (12 years after the initial mention of them, LOL)  So at some point in the not-so-near-future, maybe they'll be available for your wearing viewing pleasure.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

I love it when you're bossy; I'll admit it. :P

Where in the US? Midwest maybe? Say Missouri? You gotta know we're having unseasonably hot weather for this time of year. By the way, good chapter. ^_^

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

LA, SF, Colorado Springs, Rapid City, Yellowstone, Idaho (somewhere), Seattle, then back to SF.And thanks. :)

Response from MsTree (Reviewer)

LA *bleh too crowded. It's actually a bunch of little cities bumping up against each other* SF *nice city, but crowded* (I grew up in Northern California ^_^) Colorado Springs *the fires are mostly contained and my friends there say they've been allowed back into their homes* Rapid City *never been there. Isn't that Mount Rushmore territory?* Yellowstone *this time of year it's crowded with tourists* Idaho *the Snake River is nice* Seattle *say hi to LotM. She lives there* Sounds like a fun trip all the way except for the crowds. Sorry, but I've lived in a rural area for almost half my life now. Not sure I could live in a city anymore. ^_^

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

I live in a small town, 25,000 pepole.  It's nice to experience the buzz of the city and all the shopping we don't have, but I agree, wouldn't want to live there.  Of course, our biggest city (Auckland) is tiny compared with yours. :D

Response from MsTree (Reviewer)

Last census, my closest town had 425 people. (They didn't count the hounds that had pups at the time.) I live a little over 6 kilometers from there (4 US miles). Have fun on your trip.  ^_^

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Wow, now that's a small town.  Must be peaceful though.
