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. ;)

Thanks for the update!  Nicely done.  Now why on earth did she run off?

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Just because she was overcome with emotion, and Draco was there. :)

Very enjoyable.  I loved Pansy's stumble and Draco was decent as well.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Draco likes her now.  After all, he kisseed her at Xmas! :)

That's probably the best thing you could ever hear listening in at doors. That was wonderful!

Er... sorry, sweetie. Make sure you are cosy and warm in there! :)

I had this big goofy grin on my face the entire time I was reading this chapter.  It's splendifferous.  That means AWE-SOME!I love it!  It tickles me no end that the students are seeing the newlyweds arrive a little late to dinner just the least be unkempt, and they know that there has been shagging in the dungeons.You really made me laugh with Severus' comment to Madam Hooch to "check your broom next time you go for a joy ride with that Vibrating Charm.” Beth

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

LOL, thanks, Beth! :)

Oh, I was totally with Hermione.  Thought for sure he had changed his mind about the classroom fantasy.  What a tease!  I like the new devil may care Severus... showing up all disheveled to dinner.  And he and Ginny together still makes me smile.  Thanks for another great chapter!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Thanks for droping by to review! :)

I am over the top trilled for getting to read another update of your wonderful story. This story is smashingly sexy and I am so much enjoying to have a happy Severus to read about, stories that finds him happy and content are few and far between, making this one precious. Add that you write it so well, you sure brings stars to my eyes and a big grin on my face.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Thank you! :)

I wonder if the gift Severus bought Hermione was a ring? I like how Hermione assumed the Potions class would become what they had fantasied about.  Ginny has a lot of advice for both of them and isn't afraid to scold them when they come less than presentable to eat!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

You will find out what the gift is soon. Thanks for reviewing. :)

Oh yes, they are asoooo behaving like newlyweds.  I really like Ginny's intervention and that Severus turned to her for advice.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Yes.  If course they want to have sex all the time! :)

Aha!  So our author is at last revealed!  I knew it was someone I liked!!  Love the fact that marriage is changing both his reputation and his interest in maintaining that reputation.  Can't wait to see what he's bought her...and how he presents it.  Surely he is courageous enough to admit how he's coming to feel.Excellent work, my dear!!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Thanks, love. :)

I really like your Ginny and her relationship with both of the newlyweds.  Aw,  hugging him and calling him a lummox.  that's darling!  Hermione gets a husband and Severus gets a sister in Ginny.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

LOL. That's very true. :)

pookah

I think the best part was the staff teasing Severus with subject-appropriate jokes.  I wonder, though, what Minerva would have said, had she deigned to make such a joke herself. Your charm that keeps the Head Table's conversations away from the students is brilliant.    Naughty Professor Snape, not remembering that his next class would be popping in on their little 'moment.'   Very amusing.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Thanks,

Quite an amusing chapter, can't wait to see what he's bought for her!  I love how he lets Ginny mother him, too cute!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Ginny is her mother's daughter, through and through! :)

I'm so glad for the chapter. I almost send you a mail a few days ago to ask you when there would be an update, but then I thought it would not do to harrass you (as I could be meant to do). Now I just say SQUEEEEEEE! I like everything you write, but this one is my favourite of the year, possibly ever. So please don't make me want too long fotr the next chapter.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Sorry about the wait.  I had lots of weekends away last month and a Severus Big Bang fic to finish, but should be back on track now.  Thanks for the review! :)

Response from snitchette (Reviewer)

SQUEEEEEEEE again!! That's abvsolutely wonderful news!!!

That was an adorable chapter.  I can actually see Ginny calling him a lummox.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Thanks, blue! :)

I think this is a favorite out of all of your stories that I have read, and I only have a few left to read! I really love how you portray Hermione and Severus. Also how you give the other characters a personality that a few other authors forget or they (the other characters) fade away as the focus goes to just Hermione and Severus.  I really like how Hermione has Ginny how she can talk to about her fears and just tell about her experiences to. I really like how the teachers reacted to Severus after he came to lunch the day after his wedding.  Enjoyed reading all those puns :) I'm loving this so far and I can't wait for more, I just read it all in one go!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Marriage by Numbers)

Thank you!  I've just finished another project which consumed a lot of time and have my chapter in the Intergalactic Quidditich Cup to write this week, then I'll be back onto this story. :)

That was the worst set of puns I've ever seen.

Author's Response: I give you permission to use them in your stand-up routine... :P
