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 the marriage law challenge and look forward to reading this!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Thanks! :)

It's so funny how the staff has something to say to what happened during Severus' wedding night! Each with their own puns related to their specialties! Wicked! Haha.. can't believe that they were seen by the Ravenclaws dry humping each other!!! Bet Minerva will give Severus a long lecture about it if it reaches her ears! haha.. a worse gossip than Lavender! This ought to be good!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

LOL.  Glad you're enjoying the story! :)

turnabout is fair play. in all other marriage law challenges it is the women who are at a disadvantage. nice twist.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Thank you! :)

Cruel of you not to let us know what Ginny did.  I hope the next chapter is well on its way.  :D

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Um.  I've done a bit of it so far. :D

Sooo, every time he takes points, hm... something hilarious happens? That's a nasty spell for Snape indeed! One should not underestimate Ginny. But not Snape either.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

It';s called positive reinforcement.  Don't take points, and you are rewarded with nothing happening! :)

Response from Bettina (Reviewer)

Will "it" happen when he (ever...) deducts points from Slytherin? At least Ginny didn't restrict it to Gryffindor alone, which is very considerate, even if it also makes thigns happen more often. BTW, one reviewer commentted that this spell is now going too far... I think that all their snogging etc already went much too far for a school environment, and so I don't mind this either. You're quite OOC, and you know it  :-) 

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Fair cop! :D

ROFL.  Whee, what fun!

The fact that I can read this a second time and enjoy it just as much as the first is an indication of what a good story it is.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Thank you! :)

Well what the heck is Hermione worried about?  In a short span of time, he has gained a wife, had enough sex to make up for a lifetime without, and was befriended by someone who is a Weasley, and a female, and a student.  Does she think at this point that throwing a baby in the mix is really going to shock him?  I think your Severus will make a wonderful daddy.  Plus, if it is a boy, he has already had practice with giving the sex talk :)I sure hope Hermione's raging hormones are sufficient enough to keep Severus busy.  Otherwise Ginny is in for a serious ass kicking.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Hermione is just having a wee neurotic moment.  She'll come right! :)

It won't be too much longer before Severus figures out what Ginny has done, and then we'll know, too.  But I'm very interested to know if Hermione is pregnant, and how she will tell Severus if she is.  Somehow I think he will be delighted to find out that he's going to be a father.  Daddy!Snape... I like the sound of that.  I hope Poppy is back and that is where Hermione disappeared to before Severus awoke.Thank you for this fun chapter!  Beth

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Thanks, Beth! :)

The potions master with a little more confidence can be a lot of fun.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Oh, yes! :)

LOL.  Hermione thinks of everything.

She's a know-it-all after all! :)

Yes, I feel rather protective of Snape myself.  I'm glad he has Hermione.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

He needs someone in his corner. :)

While I've been enjoying this story, I can't say I like the silly game going on between Severus and Ginny.  So far, I think her revenge prank is more hurtful than funny.  It's certainly more hurtful that the tickling spell he used on her.  I hope this prank marks the beginning of the end of this sub-plot and a valuable lesson is learned.I'm far more interested in seeing Hermione break her news and how the ensuing discussion goes.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Yes, the pranking will be over.  Hermione will give him something else to think about. :)

I love this fic and can't wait to find out how Severus reacts to the idea of fatherhood! I think Severus is quite OOC, but that's exactly how I like him!!!  Great job!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

I'm pleased you said that.  A totally canon Snape wouldn't be anywhere near as much fun. :)

Wow!! You've done a really good job with this story! I can't wait for the next chapter!!

Lol. Too funny. Awesome work so far. I cant wait to see what happens next. I think I know though. lol

LOL.  Not sure I do... yet! :)

I adored this chapter.  The playful banter between Ginny and Severus was a hoot, and I thought he was going to have apoplexy when she indicated the size of Harry's package.  LMAO!  And with that Tickling Charm, the war of wits between Sev and Gin is on.  Hummmm... "homework-unrelated calculations..."  Do I hear the pitter-patter of little witch or wizard feet?  YAY!!!!Thank you for this very enjoyable chapter!Beth

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Thanks for your comments, Beth. :)

Huh, what could those calculations be pointing to?Lovely war that Ginny has started.  I'm sure it will be incredibly entertaining.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Severus should know better than to pick on a redhead. :)

This is so very cute.  I love it, and, Oh Hermione, when you shag like bunnies what do you expect?  Thank you for the story, it is very entertaining.
