I love you using Winky.  No one uses her enough no wonder she's a drunk most of the time.

great story waiting for more. p 

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

LOL! Well, JKR has said that Winky will never get over her drinking problem... So I thought I'd use it. ;) Thank you, Patty! ~Ginny

"If you want me to?"  That sounds promising...how soon can we expect lemons/the next chapter and do the two coincide?

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

:) It does sound promising. I will try to have the next chapter up by sometime next week. The question of lemons? I'll leave that one unanswered for now. Thank you,

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

"Not unless you want me to," he murmured silkily in her ear.  Whoo, Hoo!  *does a happy dance*  I like where this going!  ;)

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

HA HA HA! I'm glad. Just remember that Snape is a snarky git. ;) Thank you,

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

Interupted again! Looking forward to the next chapter.

Nice sense of akwardness.

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

:D Thank you! Glad that you thought so.

That is so typical, the slap on the wrist. I am glad Hermione and Snape are going to team up for a little revenge of their own. Ron needs to grow up.

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

LOL! Yep, exactly! :D Thank you!

Two cliff hangers in one chapter? Evil, just evil. This is where I am glad that I am behind and have other nice chapters to read. :)

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

It was evil. ;) But, at least then, my chapters were coming up quickly. ;)

That meddling Minerva (could her timing be any worse). *snicker*

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

*snicker* Nope... then again, Filch's timing is pretty bad too. ;)

I'm reading this story for the second time.  I enjoyed it the first time.  I don't usually read stories twice but every now and then I find one I like enough that if I happen upon it again I keep reading.

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

Thank you! :) I'm glad that the story holds up to repeat readings.

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

Thank you! :) I'm glad that the story holds up to repeat readings.

Linwe Numenesse

Damn! That wasn't nice, leaving us hanging like that! phew, steamy.  Sorry I didn't post a response for the last chapter before this one, I got caught up in reading it again.  Anywho, I really loved the last two, Minerva really needs to mind her own business. The only thing she didn't do like Albus is twinkle, of all the nerve, Cant wait to read more, please update soon.

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

HA HA! I know, I'm terrible. I'm so very sorry for such a long wait. Thank you so much for the kind review. :)

awesome. thank you for a new chapter.

Thanks, patty!

I just love this story.  The scene where Severus and Hermione walk into the restaurant/pub and Molly stands up expecting them to come to their table, and they don't is a scream.  Molly seems like she can get quite huffy and deliver the "cold shoulder" like nobody's business.  Ron is just too clueless for me to adequately describe.  Minerva needs to butt out.  Revenge will be sweet (will it just be against Ron and Molly or Minerva, too?). 

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

Oh,

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

, thank you so much! Revenge will be against Ron and Molly... those are the targets. :)

Mrs_D_Radcliffe

Yes!! I love that friends episode... when they all go to different places to eat it. And Ross and Monica's mum "that's a lot of information to get in thirty seconds" Oh. Just thinking about it makes me smile. :) Another brilliant chapter, and I can't wait for the next.

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

:D I love that show... and that's my favourite episode. Thank yoU!

There was a 'has' instead of a 'was', I think, in the paragraph you were talking about Molly's big b-day plans... other than that, I thought it was perfect. Everything easy to visualize, characters canon-fitting, dialogue flowed well, and Snape wasn't a mushy pile of goo. Melting, maybe, but not mushy. Glad to see you back! Happy writing!

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

Thank you. I'm glad you like it. When you sent the review I looked at the paragraph and the words. It's been so long, i can't remember what it was. ;) BUt thanks.

PlaidPooka

I'm so glad that I finally had the time to catch up with this story, because i just love it!  So today, I started from the beginning again and read the whole thing.  I'm glad that it hasn't been all smooth sailing for our intrepid couple so far, but I'm also glad that they aren't having too much trauma either.  I think it's a most believable start to a relationship between those two, and I adore it!  More soon please!  :)

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

Oh, I love you, Pook. Thank youso much for your kind words. :D

ladyofthemasque

About time you updated, you sneaky potion-brewing woman--this isn't Veritaserum you're making, so don't make the next chapter take half a year to get up!  *waves torch irately, careful to not singe anything important, like the author's fingers, keyboard, monitor, internet connection...*More, please!~Lotm*wavewavewave*

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

I know, i've been terrible, haven't I? And then I've had reviews that have been unanswered forever and people will think that I don't appreciate them. *sigh* Thank you, Lotm.

Response from ladyofthemasque (Reviewer)

Well, hurry up.  My arm is getting tired, and that means the flames of my torch are getting closer and closer...muahahah...whoops, wasn't supposed to giggle evilly out loud like that...*pastes on innocent grin*  Update very soon, pretty please?~Lotm

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

I updated tonight. Is that soon enough? :D

Bravmiki

Take all the time you need.  My kiddies are back in school today - Hip hip hooray!I can't wait for their vengance to rain down on Ron and Molly! (a little for Ginny too, please)  I'm glad that Severus isn't letting Minerva scare him off. 

Response from GinnyW (Author of A Slip of the Tongue)

:D Amazing, i always thought that once they were older that things would get easier... but no. Finding time to write is getting much harder. *sigh*
