Hermione Granger Severus Snape

Severus loses a magical bet to Albus. The consequences? He's forced to take Argentine Tango lessons from Hermione during her summer break from University. An uneasy friendship is formed that turns into something more. What part does the Wolfsbane Potion play, and what is the mystery behind the Enchanted Leaf? Equal parts: humor, sensuality, adventure, and mystery. My answer to the codpiece challenge on Wiktt. HG/SS (Rating for later chapters).

Dances With Witches was a winner in the laughter category of the Multifaceted Awards (Round 2)

I am amazed and enthralled with the Harry Potter universe, with the emphasis on Snape. HG/SS is my favorite ship (you have been warned). I like sci-fi ? Star Wars, Quantum Leap, Star Trek, and Ray Bradbury to name a few. Horror also catches my interest as in Stephen King. I am a married, mother of two teenagers, multiple pets (dogs, cats, rabbits, turtle), and I work way too many hours. The rest is window dressing and subject to change without notice. I am also on staff on a wonderful new site called Playwitch. Visit when you get a minute: WWW.Playwitch.net

Thie story is just too darn good to remain unfinished!  Is there even the remote possiblity that you will be able to complete it?  A tremendous yarn---needs its  hapy conclusion!

CardinalinNight

This story continues to be amazing. It has been quite some time since you've last updated. I hope that your health, and that of your family is vastly improved. Thus enabling you to complete this masterful work.  Wishing you all the best AND  that you will complete this story! :-)

I've resisted leaving a review until I had finished all the available chapters of this most amazing story.  However, i just felt compelled to say that this story has kept me in its throes from the opening sentence. I'm so eager to complete this work that I've taken to reading a 1-2 chapters in the morning when i should be getting ready for work.  Dances with Witches has it all: romance, humor, angst, and erotica. It is the perfect story!

Well, it would seem they have survived their first major argument. It's a shame Hermione can't really understand Severus' difficulty with her apprenticeship. He wants what is best for her, but wants her all to himself as well. It's lovely that your trio is still intact and close as friends. Bonded for life with an unbreakable loyalty. Lovely.

You come up with such great names for wizarding restaurants and clubs! "Can you feel the magic, Hermione? It is all around us, you have bewitched my very soul. Each time I am near you, every time I make love to you, every time I look into your eyes I can feel the pull of your magic. It gets stronger every time I’m with you.”Wow! You do have this amazing ability to just melt me into a little puddle of goo. I don't blame the necklace for glowing after that!

I love this story SO much!!! I found the translation (to German) a few days before and was facinated by it. Before this I wasn't so fond of the Pairing SS/HG. For me Hermione fits best to Draco ;) But this story... I can't really give a name for it. I just love it. And it seems so right the two together. i love your style to write and i really hope this story will be finished. Feel the warmest thanks for this!  Dalla :)

hehe I am loving this story beyond belief! I will say when I first read the summary I was abit wary but I was sucked into the story after the first paragraph and have been greedily reading now for hours, I cannot wait for the next chapter! it is fantastic!! well done!!!!!

"A wave of her hand and the bubbles turned green and silver. Another spell and they rose in the air and formed the words 'Slytherin Rules' over the bathtub."

You know, a good woman always thinks of her man's comfort level. Bravo, Hermione.

I read the chapter again. I love how you manage to weave in something clever like the above quote in every chapter that takes my attention. There is a quote actually from a few chapters back I am thinking of showcasing in the quotes section. (Just gotta find it again; though I'm pretty sure where it is.)

Just finnished this marathon of a read - and I am tired, square eyed and thoughroughly impressed. This was a great piece. Loved the tango seduction. Hope it ends with tenbrook coming out of the closet, because I just cant see anything coming between these two. Will Hermione end up apprenticing with snape? cant wait to read the next installment. Keep up the fantastic work.

Hey, I'm loving your story so far, can't wait to read the next chapter. Although one thing, for the dance steps you have been occasionally saying, for example "the La Salida" which means the the exit, whcih doesn't make much sense, I have only noticed this a few times though. When you describe the dance movements i can imagine them doing the Tango around her flat or the dance studio, I think you portray them very well, can't wait to read about Halloween.    

Response from Pearle (Author of Dances with Witches)

The dance steps are predominately from the site listed at the end of the chapter, as well as cobbled together from three other sites ( I don't Tango). I'm not sure if the step means more of a transition in the dance (not actually exit), but it is listed in the manner I used. Technically, the Hallowe'en chapter completes the challenge I started writing the story for, but there were still so many plot points left loose, that rather than start a sequel (and need to rebuild the story line), I continued on with the story. I'm glad you're enjoying the story. Thank you for reading and reviewing, more soon.
