Severus and Hermione were careful, but not careful enough. Now they'll learn just what their risks will cost them.

Update June 4, 2013:
Parenthood: Ready or Not - Chapter 13 has a good chunk written and I'm trying very hard to get my head back into it so that it's not left abandoned.
Other than that, I've really wandered away from fandom and am mostly writing original things.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!! And then Severus woke up in a tangle of sheets, Hermione held him close and whispered, "Another nightmare, love?"... Well that's the only way I'm going to sleep tonight! Lovely piece - but now I'm sad!
Response from Delayed Poet (Author of When Hope is Lost)
Awww, yours is a much sweeter ending, to be sure. It's just that the muse wasn't going for sweet. I'm sorry!I'm glad you thought it lovely, still!
Wow, quite dark, but strangely beautiful.
Response from Delayed Poet (Author of When Hope is Lost)
Thank you!
Does that mean he killed himself? I'm so sorry for them.
Response from Delayed Poet (Author of When Hope is Lost)
No, he managed to kill one of the guards with that guard's wand before the other guards killed him.I'm sorry for them, too, but the muse inspired the angst, so it's all her fault!

I just saw you're about to about parenthood. That is wonderful news. I'm already impatient to read it.
Response from Delayed Poet (Author of When Hope is Lost)
Awesome! I'm so incredibly excited about it! I can't believe it took two years for my life to stabilize enough for me to finally write it. I'm so glad that there's at least one person out there looking forward to reading it!

A very powerful and painful moment captured in all its futility and agony.
Well done.
