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. ;)

I just discovered your story this morning and read straight through to the current chapter. Each chapter is very entertaining. The beginning of the story is a refreshing surprise as a premise on which to initiate Hermione's interest in her Potions Professor. The Prof's training regimen is certainly unconventional and I can see why he performs in the dark. The whole voyeuristic aspect  gives the Prof. such a boost in confidence and a naughtiness to the tale itself.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

She hadn't really seen him as a man before, then - Wham!  :)

That was just sweet.  Surprising maturity on Harry's part.  (Yay! He's growing up!)

He is, deb.  :)

I think it's brilliant how you countered the increase in physcial contact in the last chapter with the increase in emotional contact in this one. It makes the relationship feel very balanced. *sigh* A man who will take care of you when you're really ill is a keeper!! LOL

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

He sure is! :)

That was intense. I can't think of anything else to say. It's the slow burn of a lingering passion. Wow.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Thanks, Rhiannon! :)

Oh, the last scene was so peaceful and lovely. I'm so happy for them! And loved the mature Harry, handling it calmly instead of flying off the handle.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

He is post-war, and post-seeing Snape's memories.  It helps.  :)

That was beautiful, sunny. I always knew Snape had a tender side. He just needed the right person to bring it out.I can see why you thought my previous comment about developing a fever was so funny.  LOL!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Yes, it was very appropriate! :)

Just when I’ve girded up my loins for another chapter of lust and slow burn desires, you surprise me and make me go all mushy and fuzzy, I now feel I need to find some kittens to play with, when I should be working. Once again I cry more, more, faster, faster, chapters that is of course.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Did you find the kittens? :)

From porn to love story in one chapter, great stuff.  Please say the next chapter is in the queue, this is the best story around at the moment.  Very well written and I like confused Harry.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

The next chapter will be up in a few days. Thanks for the review! :)

Wow. Well they are away from the portraits, so they have some privacy. McGonagall is going to flip.

Ahem - isn't this just a little bit dangerous? Out in the Quidditch stands, where anybody could see them? I'd hate to see Severus lose his job...

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Those lazy teenagers won't get up that early, and he knows the staff's habits.  Let's just assume that being a smart ex-spy, he has some sort of warning charm in place, shall we? Or maybe he likes a little risk? ;)

Yum! But yikes...aren't they gonna be seen? We all know he's dramatic but apparently Snape is a little exhibitionist too ;-) - LOL

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Who else would be around at that hour of the morning apart from fitness freaks and nosey know-it-alls? :)

Response from snapesphoenix (Reviewer)

Well - I suppose you're right but you never know. All the same I like this risky seductive Snape. :-)
