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. ;)

Oh, Molly what have you done?

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

It's the red hair; I'm sure of it! :)

lol - sending you copious amounts of chocolate!!!Loved it but would oh so dearly love to ring Ron's neck right now and Molly's, interfering old busy body.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Chocolate... mmm... :)

Sevvy

Poor Ron - I can just picture his face (matching his hair colour no doubt!) 'Iam planning to have mind-blowing sex with this incredible man in approximately thirty seconds...' and 'Snape just smiled, which was even more disturbing' are absolutely priceless lines!Just one point (sorry!): When Hermione returned after flooing to warn Harry about Ron, it said she found Severus 'obediently naked' but then says...'and slowly started unbuttoning Severus' shirt...' (?!)  Either way, I personally wouldn't have been complaining but I thought, for the purposes of the story, you may not have realised it contradicted itself!I'm still loving this though; it's one of the best and most humourous that I've read in a while - keep up the good work! :-)

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

LOL. I got you!  Hermione was wearing Severus's shirt.  Remember, she put it on when Ron turned up and just put her robes over it.  Good observation though. :)

Response from Sevvy (Reviewer)

Whoops, silly me - sorry!  I guess I just got so carried away by the thought of a naked Severus it totally confused me to think that he then wasn't!! LOL :-)

MollysSister

I assume the cap locks rant is from Ron? Clearly Harry's skills at covering for her are shit. WHEN will the update be young lady?

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Just got it back from the beta, will be up it in the next 24 hrs. :)

Such an evil cliff hanger! Thank goodness I know the next chapter is already up!!Lily was my first love. I held onto that love long after I should have let go Really? You think? Sorry my sarcasm got the best of me there.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

At least he finally got his act sorted out! :)

I am on pins and needles to find out The Plan for snogging!!! Do tell

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

LOL.  :)

I think Poppy & Harry deserve the MVP awards for this chapter. How wonderful of them to be so accepting and no temper tantrums. Yippeee! Harry is showing lots of wisdom, I am impressed.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Harry has the benefit of having seen Snape's memories now.  He realises Snape is not so bad after all. :)

MollysSister

The puns were loads of fun! Where does Severus run during the winter months I wonder?

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

You know, I didn't ask him! :)

Wow, this is freaking hot, funny, and perfectly written, to boot.  Damnit, now I have to go back and read the first seven chapters.  Shoot.  Like I didn't have enough to do already...

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

LOL. You are all back to front, babe! :)

MollysSister

I got all sorts of naughty ideas when I read that hermione was alone in the library. I will try to be patient.My name is Severus. What an emotional wallop that line gives. If I could keep my eyes open i would read futher. I'll be back.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

See you soon! :)

MollysSister

Hermione is going to have to start nude stretching so Severus can watch. Fair is fair.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Nude yoga, perhaps? :)

MollysSister

I laughed and laughed at Hermione's discovery that Severus does in deed have pubic hair. Lets see it some more!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

You'll get your wish! :)

OF COURSE!!!!  They finally manage to get through sickness (hers and the other student's) and all the other stuff, only to be interupted.  $10 it's Ron (really, who else could it be?)Anyway, great chapter.  Looking forward to the next one. =)

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Thanks for reviewing, Rhiannon! :)

OMG, Totally not fair!  I hate interruptions!  That's just rude to just barge into someones room/floo like that!  I hope Hermione tells whoever that is off.  Please update again soon.  Cheers!  ~Brena

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Oh, she will! :)

Sampdoria

WHAT? Here I am enjoying myself tremendously, feeling so happy for Hermione and Severus and then someone dares to interrupt????? Who has access to his rooms? Hermione needed a password didn't she? So, even if I like to think that the "disruption" has red hair, how did he/she get in? (Counting Ginny as well as Ron). You better update again soon:-))

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Someone is banging on the outer door, not actually in the room.   Update will be posted soon! :)

You are Evil. Not Voldemort evil, but definitly Lucius Malfoy Chamber of Secerts evil. I can't believe you ended it right there! Been meaning to ask what is F.A.R.T.? Since Robbi inspired this glorious story I must ask does she write as well?

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Robbi is rdholmantx, author of Wicked Fun, Hooligans, and many hilarious drabbles.  FART is Fangirl Assoc Robbi (Texas). A very serious organisation... not! :)

Response from snapes_gemini (Reviewer)

Thanks for replying to my review. I did notice that you did not deny being evil I will have to watch out for you! LOL

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

I am the Pink Evil from the Southern Hemisphere.  Watch out! When you least expect it, expect it!

Taking my lead from Persevero. Is it Coitus Inter-Ron-uptus? Oh evil cliffie. I don't mind drawing out the tension but oh my goodness Sev will turn blue - or at least a certain delicate part of his anatomy will.Loving this story. i love the silences between them. It indicates how much Hermione has grown as a person.Cheers.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

LOL.  How I love new words! :)

LOL.  Surprise! :)

Prof M McGonagall

Who could that final question be from?  Harry?  McGonagall?  My guess is Ron.  Such spectacularly bad timing would be something very Ron-like.  Whoever it is, I hope Hermione hexes him/her with something stronger than little yellow canaries.Once again, your light tone left me smiling.  For a chapter that I had thought would be about the big consummation, there was very little consummating going on.  ;-)I hope Chapter 9 is coming soon.  Severus and Hermione are feeling quite frustrated by now, the poor dears!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

Must stop tormenting them! :)

JL1989

Have you ever read the "100 Ways To Kill A Weasley" multiple-author fic at AFF?  One of the ficlets there features a crowd of pissed off female fanfic readers who kill Ron... heehee!  I think its called "Murderous Muggles" or something like that... reminds me of these recent reviews!Ah, we so love to hate the Weasel-Boy. In this case, I thnk Hermione will do the job herself- I'm thinking he's the soon-to-be dead man (boy) hollering through the door! Or Severus could always poison the brat or something.  !>This fic is so lovely and sexy! I am really enjoying seeing a confident, strong Hermione who goes after what she wants, and a more emotionally open Severus. (and the fact that he does his early morning exercises nearly or completely naked has nothing to do with it- but it sure is a delicious image! Lucky Hermione!)Bravo!

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

I like them like that too! Thanks for the review.:)

wonderful chapter, love that Harry's not some raving child in this. So many people seem to thinkk he can't grow up and learn to be an adult.

Response from sunny33 (Author of The Runner)

True! :)
