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. ;)

Pince is in on it and approves!  Who would have thought?Severus was so very sweet to her, and it's nice that they've admitted just how serious they are about each other. 

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Irma gets a lot of bad press.  I decided she needed a makeover! :)

I was expecting harry to say something, but I'm glad you added in pinces comment, at least now they have two allies! I can't wait for more

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

It's coming! :)

I'm glad to see that a few of Severus' colleagues are interested in his happiness as well--even the dried up old maids.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Poor man really doesn't realise that people care about him. Heaven forbid! :)

After all that build up I believe you're pitching us toward the 'World Cup" of lemons!!! LOL I can't list what I liked because that's the entire thing. =]  Please post again soon! Even Madam Pince is looking out for them! *grin*

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

I don't know about World Cup, but I promise they will get to it, sooner or later... :)

*sprays drink over keyboard* Harry thinking himself hallucinating! That's just soo funny *rofl*
And Severus really IS smitten and lost - his reaction really is unusual for the likes of him. I'm just imagining the gossip spreading in the castle. It's good he finds undertanding with Poppy, though. But what have you done with Harry Potter, and whom did you replace him with? *giggles again*

Author's Response: Just a little death and reincarnation.  Changes a bloke, you know? :)

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Thanks! :)

This is such a great story, sunny! :) It's funny and sweet and hopeful and the tension is so thick you COULDN'T cut it with a knife. It's funny, because their affections seem to be developing slowly, but you've only got 5 chapters up here. Very effective and well written, obviously. I look forward to the next [couple of?] chapters! -CC

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Thanks, CC.  I will post another before the end of the week. :)

This was a beautiful chapter, not because Hermione became ill, but because her illness led to Severus aknowlegding that she loved him too. I am also truly happy about Poppy who cares so much for the both of them, not to mention Harry who in this story seems to have been granted quite a few more emotional braincells than he usually is:-))Yup, absolutely great chapter!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Poor old Harry.  He has sacrificed himself for the greater good, been resurrected and killed Voldemort, and found out that his long-time nemesis did everything her did for the love of his mother. Of course he has grown up a little!  As for Ron...  he has a wee way to go yet! :)

This is a fun beginning to the story!  I'm curious to see where Hermione's new obsession will lead.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

She does like research things thoroughly... ;)

Snerk. "Severus Snape's pubic hair..." Now there's a phrase you don't see every day. (Not that I would mind AT ALL seeing the hair itself every day...) Very nice beginning, ma'am. I'm really, really enjoying your writing and look forward to more. Thank you for posting this, Cat

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Thank you, Cat.   More is in the queue! :)

Lovely start, dear. I am really looking forward to seeing where this goes. I can't help but to wonder if our Potions master catches Hermione ogling him, and if he does, what his thoughts will be.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

You may be surprised! :)

yum!  severus in runnning shorts!  lovely begining.  by the by, what is F.A.R.T.?  thanks so much!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

F.A.R.T.= Fangirl Assoc Robbi Texas.  We created it one day when Robbi was feeling unappreciated. Squeeing for Wicked Fun and pretending we like McDonalds are our main aims. Thanks for the review! :)

Response from kimjo2 (Reviewer)

I am so on board with that!  i promise to give her a special squeeeee the next WF update!

Oh man, not only is Hermione  lusting after Snape!  Lol.  I found her musings and inattention quite cute and funny.  I wonder what he'll do when he finds out she's been spying on him?

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

That's the 50 million dollar question. :)

Is that it ??  It says not complete but it seems complete to me unless you are going to add more.   Please let us know , it was really good. I loved it.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Oh, there is definitely more on its way! :)

Response from mamabear52 (Reviewer)

Keep 'em comin'.   I love it.   Any idea how long it will be ?   I love long stories.  As long as the author doesn't get bored and give up on it like so many have done.  Please just keep writing.
