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 love how Ron is just completely bemused by the whole thing! Not angry, just... "Huh?!" :)

Author's Response: It's all a bit much for the poor boy! :)

Uh oh - look out, Pansy! And man, do I ever want to see a picture of Severus in the "budgie-smuggler"! (G) Thank you for another excellent chapter, Cat

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

You may have to stand in line for that viewing! :)

How fun, how will you deal with the student/teacher aspect of their relationship?

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

I alluded to it in an earlier chapter when she was talking to Harry.  They will get her work graded by someone else, probably old Sluggie. I had to keep her in his class just so she could tease him LOL :)

Mmm.... Severus in speedos. *drools* I can't wait to see how Hermione takes Pansy down; I just know it will be damn good.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

All this anticipation for Pansy's comeuppance.  I hope I can fulfil all your expectations! :)

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

And stop drooling. woman.  You will ruin your keyboard! :P

Response from luvsev (Reviewer)

You're a f-ing amazing writer, so I know that whatever you have planned will be sweet. *Wipes drool off keyboard and smiles happily at the image of Severus' body in speedos.*

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Stop it! You're making me blush! *hugs*

Great chapter!  I wondered what would happen with Ron when they returned to Hogwarts.  All told, I think Ron handled their news very well.  I particularly liked your description of how Hermione felt about their wedding night:  "The beauty she had discovered in his face as they had flown together in ecstasy only minutes earlier was a prize she held locked in her memory. His tender touch and gentle lips were hidden treasures for her alone. If love sustained life, they had become immortal."  That is just lovely!The funniest thing was the Australian name for Speedos.  LOL!  I'd never heard them referred to as Budgie Smugglers, but I understood immediately why.When I reached the end of the chapter, I tried to imagine what Hermione has in mind for Miss Parkinson, but I can't think what that would be.  I guess I'm just gonna have to wait for your next update, aren't I?I love this story of The Runner who captured the Know-It-All's heart... or was it the other way round?Beth

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Beth, dear, you are so sweet. What a lovely review. :)

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

LOL. I hate to tell you this, but there is only one more chapter planned at this stage.  :)

I feel bad that Ron wasn't there for the wedding, but I guess he made his bed and now has to lie in it. The swimsuit exchange was humorous, and I can't wait to see how they handle Pansy!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Harry was a bit naughty, teasing Sev like that! Thanks for reviewing! :)

Ron took the news better than I thought he would. He isnt maturing is he???? Perish the thought.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

What?  Ron? Mature? LOL :)

~grins~ Can't wait to see what happens to Pansy. Ron took the news better than I figured he would. They had a lovely wedding/honeymoon at her parent's house. Nice. Loved the line where Harry asks Severus about emigrating. LOL

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

I'm almost feeling sorry for Pansy now... :)

She definitely has him worried! :)

OMG I would love to have seen Sev' in red speedos. *giggles* And their last banter is pure Heaven. I wouldn't be in Pansy' shoes because Harry's right. Hermione can be so scary sometimes. *grin*

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Everyone wants to see Sev in the Speedos! :)

love it. great way for them to get together. can't wait to see the revenge!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Thanks! :)

Ah, sunny, another great chapter.  Loved the cameraderie, and even Ron was pleasant in this.  I can't wait to see the revenge on Pansy and the reaction of the school to Hermione being married.  And Snape being married... to each other.  Bwahahahaha!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Bwhahaha indeed! :)

I really do wish that you hadn't put that image of Severus in speedos in my mind, it's likely to stay there for a long while now  (certainly helped with making me feel better with the cold I'm currently suffering though!)'The beauty she had discovered in his face as they had flown together in  ecstasy...was a prize she held locked in her memory' and 'If love sustained life, they had become immortal' are the most amazing and beautfiul lines.  You should be given some sort of prize for these phrases alone in my opinion! :-)

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

I will have to behave from here on in.  There is far too much drooling over keyboards going on over the speedos! Thank you for your lovely comments. :)

Prof M McGonagall

Well, at least Ron is okay.  Lots of giggle-worthy moments in this chapter.  I wasn't expecting Harry to still call Severus 'Sev' once they got back to Scotland, but it was kind of nice.  I have to tell you, though, that I await Pansy's moment of discovery...

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

I think Harry will restrain himself in class... just! :)

Severus in Budgie smugglers - too evil! Fantastic story.“You know, Sev. You’re not a bad sort when you are away from Scotland. Ever thought about emigrating?” Harry asked cheekily.Yes please! and bring ya cute cozzie too! He He!Cheers and 'ooroo!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Shall I send him over next week? :D

"If love sustained life, they had become immortal."Exquisitly stated.What a delightful chapter.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Thanks, dear! :)

A brilliant update, the only thing sad is that you didn't provide us with a picture of Severus in his speedo...:-)) Ron's reaction were brilliant, still Ron, but absolutely acceptable:-))Though I loved Severus comment on Pansy essay, I am looking forward to see what the trio has planned:-))

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Well, he was almost in his speedos! :)
