These two are subdued versions of themselves at the moment (well, except for little miss temper), but you just know there is fire underneath waiting to be unleashed.  I'm excited to see what dynamic develops.

Dammit, I caved, lol.  I recently told you I love first chapters because everything is shiny and new.  I love the tone you've set for Severus.  He is still the same guy we know and love, but this new lease on life has given him some optimism that really doesn't betray his character.  And the chapter's end ... You almost didn't get a review, dangling yummies like that in front of me with the next chapter already available. :)

Love the D/s overtones!! I love your description of Severus in his finery great chapter!!!

What? is this supposed to be a horror story? Dumbledore offering Severus MORE than the perscribed apprenticeship...gave me the heebie jeebies and then I had  mental snap shot of a squicky sex scene between the two!! Shudder!!!! As always well written!! sorry for the delay in reviewing! Hugs and I hope you are well!!

Oooh I'm positively drooling in anticipation.  Wonderful chapter.

I think Severus would be the one person to help Hermione with the problem with her temper and rage. Though, the implication is parallel to that of a Dom/sub relationship. If Hermione is feeling so lost, then this would be the best thing for her. A lot can happen in 7 years, and a strong relationship would be one.

Well, that was perfect! I can't wait for the next update and I love the way you write a D/s narrative.

Heh. If Hermione fully expects to be dealing with the Snape she knew as a schoolgirl, I guess she's in for a bit of a surprise. Perhaps Snape (given his past penchant for temper and vitriol) can give her a few lessons in controlling this newly-discovered side of herself. If she doesn't find a way to curb it, the situation doesn't bode well for the longevity of her apprenticeship. Not to mention the emotional stability of her future students. Ouch.

oooh, I'm excited to see where this tale goes.  I don't usually care for WIP... but you have me hooked.

This chaptor is so gripping Intence and down right brilliant.  Love the way you show each person so realalisticly.  I hope they both find what they are looking for in each other.  I am so looking forward to the next chapter 

Brilliant - as always your stories are so well crafted.  Looking forward to updates

Normally, I dislike writing in the first person.  You're the exception.  Wonderful as always.

Ooh, another Teddy fic, throw on the brakes and go immediately read it! Only the first chapter, but you've never less me astray, so I shall try to patiently wait for more! :)

Great as always to see you start something new Teddy and this most certainly does not disappoint. I loved his thoughts about his parents and it was extremely interesting that he began to recover when he appeared to start to forgive them and himself for the past. Your prose is magnificent and so clear and concise.....it is a joy to read. Can't wait for more. Best wishes, Love Ali xxxxx.

Is there going to be more? It has the makings of a wonderful beginning for a wonderful story. Please tell me you are going to explain how he became Hermione's Master. 

I so enjoy your character studies.  I look forward to more chapters.

You have a way with words, you do, as exemplified by "a caul of hatred..."  Your first chapter could stand alone, but, instead, I wish for it to go on to reveal more character(s)...more reasons for just why people do what they do; because too many people are broken on the wheel of past experiences with family, friends or inimicable strangers.  Thank you,  JF

Love it so far!  Really excited for more!

great start Teddy!! Looking forward to more!!!

Great start, love your Severus and looking forward to reading more.

Oh what a shock it is to realize that we are not who we think or want to be.  Sometimes iwe need to fall to our lowest point to see that we have more to give then we taught we had in us.  I am looking forward to Severus's journey to find himself, and find the love he has always wanted.

Hi Teddy, Just rereading some old favorites, and I had actually forgotten that this one is unfinished.  I know you've had a rough time writing recently, and I am sorry for that because I know how important that is to you. I'm not leaving a comment so you'll feel guilty or pressured or anything.  I just want you to know that I am still interested in how this turns out, no matter how long it takes before you are inspired to write it.  And that I have absolute confidence that you will get back in your writing groove when the time is right. I will say for my own personal selfishness, I do miss the feeling of absolute joy when my inbox indicates a new chapter of yours is available.  I wish you the best in all thingsHope all is well

Oh yes....good to see this one bavk on the menu Teddy. I read the last chapter and had to look up that naughty little flower....ooer missus. And please God she has to realise that Sev knows exactly what she wants and needs. Great stuff. Off on a cruise around Scandinavia and the Baltic soon Teddy but I want as many updates as possible. Best wishes, Love a caught in the middle of a summer thunderstorm, Ali xxx. It's chucking it down!

This chapter could've gone in so many ways. But it's good to see Severus showing Hermione he cares for her. I was expecting a breakdown almost as soon as I read she was going to do the Wolfsbane.
