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've died.  I choked on fluff.  It was 730am and no one was here to Heimlich me.  I'm so embarassed that this is how I went.

Author's Response: What a way to go! :)

Gag.  Harry's a wuss.  I would have simply beheaded Ron and been done with it.



Author's Response: And that's why they never let you get your hands on anything sharp. :P

I think we should make a book of cliche'd Ron-phrases.

Author's Response: Cool. You start. :)

oh, this was an adverb-fest.  wasnt it.

Author's Response: Verily it was incredibly, tangibly, completely riddled with them.  I know better now... :)

I was going to write something here, but... I can't. I'm too mortified by the way you keep bandying my name about, as if I'm somewhat responsible for this emotions-fest.

Author's Response: Look, I even took your name off the credits on OWL, so be grateful! :P

I've run out of adjectives.  I have.  I didn't think it was possible, but here we are.

Author's Response: Adjectives?  I thought we banned them last drabble night! :)

Did Harry really use the phrase, "I daresay?"

Sigh.  This story had such potential.



Author's Response: Did he?  I can't remember! :)

What a great story!  You are a wonderful writer; I can't believe I've just now discovered your stories!I loved their revenge on Pansy and how Ron was the first to applaud them (while I don't think Ron & Hermione belong together, I don't really care for a lot of Ron-bashing) and Harry learning to appreciate Severus.I really liked the way their relationship developed from awareness through understanding to love - well done!!  Kelley

Thanks, Kelley.  You may like to try Full Circle. :)

“Calling a student’s essay an unmitigated example of total fucking crap written in the style of an uneducated seven-year-old is not professional, and I won’t allow it.”HA!! Love it!

This story was recommended to me by a friend of mine.  She really loved it, and I very much enjoyed reading it as well.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Thank you, Tasha! :)

Great story, Sunny! XDWhat I liked most was the humor within the story.  Hermione was a very brazy woman in this one. Snape (well I keep thinking he had nefarious(sp) reasons for acting the way he did) but you claim other wise. :PAfter finishing the fic, the over all theme of the story, to me, was that once in love or having interst in love it doesn't matter what anyone thinks. First Severus stripping naked in front of her, showing his interest by that way (neat concept) and then once the relationship was established Hermione's attitude of either you like it or you leave (to her friends/classmates/Mrs. Weasley). Looking forward for what you come up with next - especially for the laughs!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Thanks, Kel!  I like an assertive Hermione, can you tell?  :)

Mouth drops open at Hermione touching Severus in front of Ron.......Mouth closes at the fade to black.  Shame on you. There better be more!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

LOL.  You insatiable creature!

Ah okay, backtracked a bit to catch up with this chapter and I see that you had Hermione state that professor/student relationship were possible in the wizardry world. So that would explain completely to me why she wouldn't be upset by this. Although I still find this dark - much like Stephenie Meyer, who in my opinion writes fluffy!dark.  Eveything is working out for them so far but I can't help but cringe at the idea that he is still teaching her and there quite intimate. This is by far not a problem for me but I can't help but wonder if somehow you are steering off the path of fluffiness little by little And by the way you did a great job with this - must continue on! XD

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Must be the company I keep! :P

This is very unintentally dark XD Hee heeSnape: I love you. I love you. I love you..... I want you in bed. XDI remember in high school when I use to believe that if a man had sex with you they must love you then.  This is way I see it as dark. XD

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

You are ascribing evil, dark motives to my fluffy Snape.  Behave yourself, woman! :P

KellyH

K, I needz further explanation about Pomfrey motives - how can she just let him be with her? Cause in the end she would be responsible as well for keeping quiet about their affair. I know she wants Severus to be happy but there is consquences.Sorry, you know me, and hopefully you will not see this as a dig at your work, just a thought I had when Poppy agreed to let it be and support it.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

I see Poppy as aligning herself as Sev's surrogate mother, rather than just a Hogwarts staff member.  She just sees them as a young couple and their teacher/student relationship is secondary.  Call it selective blindness LOL :)

Yup, the game is on and Severus is having his fun ;)

I'm reading your fic now! Yeah! Knowing what I know about you I know this will be fluffy. BUT for some odd reason I'm taking it out of contrast to what it is. I see a man/teacher, who knows that Hermione is very interested in him, (ie, she continues to watch him run, and then get naked and yet still comes back everytime) and it seems to me, pushing her to test her limits.And it almost appears like a game to him in this chapter because there is a risk that he could get caught being inappropriate with her. I love it - even though I know it will not go dark (boohoo). XD   

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

You are such an evil wench, Kel! :P

I absolutely loved this story. I never wanted it to end. But in all honesty , you ended it at just the riht place. You know what they say," Always leave 'em wanting more ".

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

LOL. More shall come.  I do have a one-shot supplement up my sleeve. :)

I just found this story yesterday and couldn't stop reading it. I finished this chapter last night and I love this story it is so intriguing. The fact that everyone seems to accept their relationship is beyond me. But it is working. I can't wait to see what happens to Pansy.Maybe Snape will slip with a "Madam Snape" instead of a "Miss Granger".I don't think it will be a secret much longer.Great story!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Thanks, kimbee! :)
