He used his one true beauty, and it soothed even him. Great line that.  Really doing a great job with the 'fighting against/reveling in the darkness' for Severus and Voldy's just foul.  Good work.

Love the thickening plot and dire dilemma both Severus and Hermione are being woven into form all sides--Sirius Black or DEs - gah! Great work and dynamics, Teddy, as always!xxx

Response from TeddyRadiator (Author of Lay Me Low)

Thank you so much - I hope you will continue to enjoy the story!

Response from nagandsev (Reviewer)

Pssst! (whispering: Even if you have Hermione sleep with Sirius, if you write it, I'll enjoy it--Merlin forgive me! Even with Voldy *runs and hide*-hehe!)

Mmmm... love the development and step by step evolution of Hermione witnessing and sharing and helping Severus in his times of need and being a constant as he wavers in and out and around her, and Dumbledore--with his other master summoning him at the end--lovely dynamics! The contrast of her innocence and his deliberate plans of seduction versus his deliberate decisions not to seduce, the power he holds, and the power of another's will, such as the despicable Sirius', is rich and engaging; love it!xxx

Response from TeddyRadiator (Author of Lay Me Low)

Thank you so much! I'm delighted you are enjoying the story.

Love the rich detail of both of their point of views and backstories--masterful storytelling as always, Teddy! xxx

Response from TeddyRadiator (Author of Lay Me Low)

thank you so much! This is a very old portion of the story, and I was still finding my feet during it, so I'm doubly glad you enjoyed it.

Hi Teddy! I've been a fan of this fic since you started it on ashwinder, and I was just wondering if you're going to post all the chapters so far here, before updating it. lots of love,

Response from TeddyRadiator (Author of Lay Me Low)

Response from TeddyRadiator (Author of Lay Me Low)

Thank you so much! I am working really hard to update LML, but I'm in the middle of about three huge projects. I have in no way abandoned it, but I am struggling a bit with the next chapter - I really want it to be good, and I don't really think it's there yet.In the meantime, I'm trying to archive all my fics here, because I LOVE TPP (pets it lovingly!), and want to get this behemoth here so that TPP can eventually become my primary archive home.Thank you for sticking with Lay Me Low - I promise you, I will have an update very soon. I'm dying to finish it.

Response from Aysha (Reviewer)

Thanks for answering Teddy ^^I read almost all of your stories, I think, but LML is my favorite, so I'm glad to hear it's not abandoned! And TPP really is the best xDgood luck with the next chapter then, I hope you can be satisfied with it soon ;)

GodA'Mighty!  That was intense, Teddy!  If that ain't enthusiasm, I'll kiss your arse.  If I were to tell you my favorite parts of this chapter I'd just have to copy and paste every word.  This chapter- with all the intensity and the magic- is as near perfect as it can be. 

*Fans self*  Thank you for such a fabulous story!

Thank YOU, Beffey, for always encouraging me with your love and support!

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittensBright copper kettles and warm woolen mittensBrown paper packages tied up with stringsThese are a few of my favorite things:

 •“She is the reason I can still fight, and I can still assist your precious Harry Potter. She is the reason I can still face the Dark Lord, knowing I’m a hairsbreadth away from death. Not you, not Lily. Hermione.”

•“Congratulate me, Albus. I’m going to be married in a few hours, and this time tomorrow, I’m going to be the best-laid man in Wizarding Britain.”

•“Then allow me this one indulgence, Lass, and tomorrow night, anything you demand of me will be yours.”

I also love Registrar Keown.  He seems like  such a sweet man that even without being Confunded, I think he would have liked Severus and Hermione.

And now that my favorite witch and wizard are joined in Holy Matrimony, I have this sudden desire to find out what happens next!  Thank you for this awesome chapter!

I love Hermione. I love Snape. Dumbledore is right in being wary of the two. I love how the two combined can turn into something scary!

They are a powerful team, aren't they?
