I am a Harry Potter fanfic fanatic, I only discovered it after the release of DH. Disapointed that the series was ending, I read some blurb about fan fiction (which I had never heard of before) clicked a link and 'voila' I was hooked. I started out reading mostly Dramione, but evolved and although I still like DM/HG, my OTP is SS/HG. I also enjoy reading LM/HG and 3-somes with SS/HG/LM or DM/HG/BZ. As you can see I love seeing Hermione paired with those lovely Slytherin men.

After reading for nearly 2 years, I started writing a bit of my own, mostly shorter drabbles or ficlets. I've written seveal stories for fests, such as the SS/HG exchange, the LM/HG exchange, and the LuciusBigBang, fest among others.

I am magalena at here and at AFF, and FF.net; magdalena at GE, OWL and IATQO; and madeleone at live journal, AO3, Ashwinder and the Maple Bookshelf.

I'm pretty sure they will be creating their own original smut in no time.  Yay for a happy ending!

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

Thanks for all the lovely comments, I'm so glad you enjoyed the story. :)

It's looking good for them ...

What?!?! A story where they talk to each other right off the bat?  Good for them.  Talk usually leads to action anyway with these two.

I also love a Lucius who is helpful in all the wrong ways.  Yes, go after her Severus!

I love helpful Luna, smart Ron, and an upstairs with impending yumminess.

Whew!  That was easy. ;)

She'd better not pick truth the rest of the night, lol!

And I enjoyed reading it. Every frisky ending - I like it.

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

Thanks so much, must have missed this review. But I really do appreciate you taking the time to comment. :)

So what follows that revelation?

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

You will soon see! ;D

Wow, she certainly became quite forward - and brazen in her remarks. With spunk like this, why did she have to have a 'push' from her friends? You'd think there'd be some shyness, otherwise all the 'assistance' seems trite. Like, she could have approached him on her own. Is she drunk?

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

Well, at first she was a bit embarrassed by the way she'd acted at the party.(And she was tipsy there).  And the first part(about his voice) just kind of got blurted out without her thinking about it.  But also, since he came to "court" her, I think she she feels more comfortable knowing that he is interested in her as well, so she's speaking more freely now. (This is all my psycho-analyzing the situation after the fact, I really didn't think all this out as I was writing it. LOL! LOL!)

Response from beaweasley2 (Reviewer)

Oh,  okay that all makes sense.

Reaching the goal, are we? *grin* I can't wait anymore for it to happen. At least a kiss, please!

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

We are approaching the end of my little drabble series, the next and final chapter is in queue now.  Glad you are enjoying it!

At last, they're together.  It looks like they may skip the courtship, though.  :P

Author's Response: Hmmm... that's entirely possible.

You have me hooked.  Please update soon.

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

At least they're communicating.

Leave it to Hermione to decide to play nice at the last minute.

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

Yes, that's our Hermione! :D

I could definately handle playing truth or dare with the Dynamic duo.

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

It would be fun, wouldn't it?

Now she's let the cat out of the bag.  Fantasising about him at Uni! LOL

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

Yup, and seeking out beau's that reminded her of him, (she did this without even realizing it until it was pointed out to her).

Wow, great first chapter.  I am reading everything that has been posted so far.

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

Thanks so much!  Glad you are enjoying it.

Ah, how sweet of him, Lucius is goign to help her win him. Severus won't know what hit him.

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

Yea, since he's realized he's not getting any action here, and he knows that Severus quite possibly has an interest, he wants to help his friend.

10/10

beaweasley2

LOL Luna scheeming to push Hermione at Severus and Draco's attempt to do the same was cute. I loved Bliaze's comments best.

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

I love Luna, she wants to help Hermione, although I'm not sure Hermione appreciates the effort!  LOL

10/10

beaweasley2

Oh, loved Severus' answer - so true. Was giggling when Hermione chose Lucius instead of plopping into Severus' lap.  

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

Thanks! Glad you're enjoying.  And as for her choice of Lucius, she was a little put out with Draco's "help" (interference) and decided to rebel a bit. :)

10/10

beaweasley2

LOL Severus attacked Lucius - HE likes her!! Whoot!  I'm glad Lucius was able to calm him down to tell him what really happened.Figures Luna would not only out her, but tell him what her favorite flowers, candy and books are. Although any spell book would do. I really liked how she wouldn't open the door until he said please.  But man, talk about opening her mouth and letting the flood gates - she blurted out every thing!

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

I know!  She just couldn't help herself.  :D

no wonder there were no warnings!!  i thot it was going to be the usual threesome but you triumphed but something completely different. thanks so much for that and mucho smoochies

Response from magalena (Author of The Games People Play)

My characters highjacked the story, originally I also thought it was going to be  a hot, smutty, PWP, threesome. But they took control and wouldn't shut up until I told the story their way!!!
