There's not much to say, really. I'm a thirty year-old mother of three, married for seven years, I live in the Southeastern US, I'm a newly graduated Registered Nurse, and I'm absolutely enthralled with Severus Snape. It was my love for Alan Rickman that inititally brought me to love the character of Snape so much, and I adore everything he (Alan Rickman) has ever done, stage or screen. I've been in the fandom for around three years now, and have loved every minute of it.

I'm interested in where this is going. It sounds as if Hermione has an agenda that involves Severus, but I con't know what that could be (assuming he's not 'on the run'). Looking forward to seeing what's next.

Response from BulletTimeScully (Author of The Subtle Nature of Sin)

Thanks! Someone definitely has an agenda... but I'm not sure if it's Hermione...

Oh my! She saved his life, so he plucked her flower all those years ago.And now what? Did she have an auto accident?This is a very intriguing tale. I anxiously await the next installment.

Response from BulletTimeScully (Author of The Subtle Nature of Sin)

Thanks so much! You're on the right track so far! The next chapter shouldn't be too much longer in coming. :) Thanks again!!

NOW IM LOST.

Response from BulletTimeScully (Author of The Subtle Nature of Sin)

Thanks for taking the time to R&R anyway! :) I tend to do things bass-ackwards... like writing in the present when there is an entire back story that I have to explain. I think I'm going to clear it up with one good, long flashback chapter pretty soon. Things will make sense... (I hope)... so keep checking back. :) Thanks again!

Response from PHONELADY (Reviewer)

OK I TRY TO  REREAD AND SEE WHAT IM MISSING LOL TY.

Aha, so they are bound in some way and have tried to get out of it. :)

Response from BulletTimeScully (Author of The Subtle Nature of Sin)

Got it in one...Thanks for the R&R!

They've both fallen far from grace.  I look forward to finding out why. :)

Response from BulletTimeScully (Author of The Subtle Nature of Sin)

Indeed they have... Thanks for the R&R!

Godz this is good!  I've learned a lot about what happened, that Hermione saved his life after Nagini had attacked him... but I'm still a teensie bit unsure of what happened between them, when he came home from St Mungo's.  He took something precious from her that night.  Did he rape her?  Had she been a virgin?  She had said that to him in the club.  But then he goes on to tell her, "It never should have happened, and I live with that fact every single day of my life.”What happened to Hermione when she left his flat just to show back up a few minutes later bleeding from some injury on her forehead.  I'd say, "Yes, they do have a problem."  Indeed they do... but I feel like there is still so much missing from what we know that happened after the final battle, and I can't wait to find out more!Well done.  Have some flowers, m'dear.  Beth

Response from BulletTimeScully (Author of The Subtle Nature of Sin)

Thank you my dear, for the R&R, and for the lovely flowers! You're hitting pretty close to home, but I will say that, no, Severus did not rape her... :)I think I'm going to clear up their past with one really long flashback chapter... hopefully before too long so we can move ahead with things. :) I'm pretty much writing this off the top of my head, so even though there are things that I KNOW will definitely happen (or have happened), I'm not entirely sure where things will end up. I'm so glad you're liking things so far, and I'm sorry if I've confused anyone... I'm bassackward about things like this... As always, I enjoyed your wonderful review! Thanks again!!

Response from braye27 (Reviewer)

Nothing in my review was meant to be bad or derogatory.  I was just trying to tell you what a helluva good story you've got here... and like any good tale, it answers some questions and leaves the reader with new ones.It's wonderful!

Response from BulletTimeScully (Author of The Subtle Nature of Sin)

Thanks! I didn't take anything as bad or derogatory, trust me! :) I love a detailed review! :) :) It helps me be a better writer. Feel free to ask questions... it may help me in the long run if something doesn't fit or if I make a continuity error. Thanks so much! *hugs*
