39: Defense Against the Dark Arts

I've warned you that i will continue to harrass you about finishing this story until my dying day.  And i always keep my word.  Hope you are still around, that all is well for you, and that this story remains on your eternal to do list.

Hello again!  I don't know if you are even still around, but reading the rest of this story is on my bucket list, so while I still have breath in me, I shall continue to nudge you toward writing.  Hope all is well with you and yours.

SPOILER Warning******In case someone has gone this many years without getting through the last book in the series****************************I hope this new turn in their relationship keeps her from wishing she could just hold hands with someone and walk around the lake. She's had a man now. I can't imagine, at least I hope she doesn't go back to boys. What are you going to do about the Ron thing? She can't go with Ron now. It would would be too mean to Severus!  I hope she understands when Albus is killed.  Poor Severus!  There. Again I'm saying it!  I don't mind his sacrifices if I know he will be rewarded with the love he deserves for what he has had to pay to rid the world of Tom Riddle. I hope you work this out so that he doesn't suffer at the end and you'd better not kill him off like the witch who kills small beloved pets like owls, and sweet dear magical creatures like house elves protecting their loved one, cruelly rends twins assunder with one on this side alone without his other half and the other one on the opposite side of the vale tellikng jokes without punch lines!  Please tell me you will not follow that part of cannon. You are already forcing Severus to do things I don't know if Hermione can forgive him for.  She must forgive him though.When are you going to work on this story some more? Do you know? Are you planing to finish this story or did the last cannon book kill your joy when she killed off our Potions Master in an incredibly un-Severus Snap like end. ....As if the Potions Master of all masters wouldn't have antivenin.

She is being a normal girl, unfortunately for Severus. Severus Snape requires a remarkable woman. Strong, forgiving, able to make her own happiness most of the time and able to consistantly see past the Death Eater Double Spy.  He needssomeone who wants him especially because he isn't like any other man on earth. And he needs someone older than Hermione. I would be thinking just exactly what she is thinking. He is looking for a life time commitment. She just isn't there yet. I don't se how this can end well for either of them unless you figure out a way to turn cannon around soon.  I hate the way things turned out in the cannon. She ruined everything!  I can't stand it. I hope you can salvage this back story so that it comes out much better than the original. Severus deserves better.  I hate feeling sorry for Snape, damn it! I want him to show them all. I want him to end up with the best end of any stick. 

Poor Severus.  I wish she'd run off to Polynesia with him.  I hope she's worth it in the end.  She has no real idea what he faces here. They are living in the moment when they see each other.  He knows more about her than she knows about him. There is so much more to him than there is to Hermione at this point in her life. How old is she, 15 or 16? Well, at least he can have someone pure. I hope she never asks about his other lovers. I don't think she is ready for the answer.  I'm not sure I'd be ready for the Centaura. And we know that in his youth he willingly committed rape in this story, though he reqrets it now. I don't know that Hermione could really handle that knowledge.  She might be able to handle the idea that he had possibly been forced to do it, but not with certainty that he had ever willingly done it.  He's so screwed is she ever finds out all the things he has to do, unless she is a very unusual individual and not very judgemental.  I hope for his sake she is as remarkable as he thinks she is. 

 Hello! I think Draco just passed out! What do you do with this lie.  How to explain that 2 men who appeared to absolutely despise one another were lovers on the low down. Would Draco even fall for that?  I don't think he has been present at the OP meetings to observed the apparent mutual hatred. Draco doesn't know how much the murrauders stalked and abused poor Severus. Maybe he'll fall fore it.  Poor boy wil be manipulated by the Uncle he trustes. That must taste like shit to Severus.
And Hermione can't know about Draco! She would not understand. 
Severus Snape is the most adept spie of all the world if he pulls this off. He must feel like he can never get clean from lying regulary to those few who trust him, beastiality, cheeting on his overly homornal girlfriend that he shouldn't be with, but amazingly they actually love each other and trust each other. Now, add buggery in order to manipulate his godson. He must keep Hermione and Draco apart. And what would the dark lord or Albus Dumblebutt have to say about all of this distasteful activity. Dude, when this is all over you are going to need some serious counceling!

OK. What should he do now?  I say, let the twirp kiss you so that you can get on his good side and find out his secrets. Hey! It's a dog eat dog world out there right now.  Just hope that Hermione doens't find out you cheated on her with 4 Centaras and her worst enemy at the school and all in the same week. It's a fine edge you tread, poor Severus.  I actually feel sorry for you.  

Lucky in many ways it seems, our Severus. The Dark Lord needed a laugh.  Oooooo, let a name slip in there that starts with an H. So who actually rescued the toad in the forest after all?  Make up any answer you like. I had assumed it was Albus. But why he would bother is beyond me.  Does Severus have to go back to fetch her? 

So! Our dear potions master is hung like a stallion! Well of couse he is!  Those naughty girls.  It's a good thing Hermione doesn't know.  And, isn't he terrified of being caught in the act by the stallions while making love to the mares?  I'm sure they would kill him.  I'm glad he gets some small reward for his hard work protecting Harry.  It really is too bad they didn't kill Umbridge. I know Jkr needs her later in the story. I hope she has permanent damage though.  

There's no way that will happen under these circumstances.  I don't believe it.  Girls need a mood or something to get then started. 

Don't worry Hermione, dear.  After you've been married for more than 3 decades you actually will grow together down there from lack of use. You see, the little man is victim to depression, high blood pressure, diabetes and sundry medications for said infirmities, but eventually this will only spark a sense of resigned bitterness. Dreams though few and far between will be a welcomed relief. So cry no more dear girl and by the gods grab him while you can! Perhaps in your world magic will make these things not so.  If that is the case, get over it you silly girl. He must truly be desperate to put up with this.  You all must be.  I was quite emotional the first 20 years. It was dreadful! Now I am resigned to the fact that what ever you were fighting about the first 2 years are the same things you will be fighting about in 10 years until eventually you just look at him and shake your head. Put up with it or try to train a new one. Here is the most important thing you will ever know. They cannot be trained. Don't waste your time. 

I love, "like a raisin through a guinea pig"!  I take it you speak from experience based on your picture of Mr. Flibbert, I believe his name was.  One of the things that annoyed the hell out of me in the movie version of TGoF was the hormonal Hermione whining and bitching in her high pitched self righteous girl BS. I think she was pissed off just like in this chapter for the entire movie. I realize it is true to life but it is still annoying. I have two drama queens of my own and it doesn't get better when they grow up.  I am grateful for grandsons. They are loud and every game requires growling and yelling and running in the house, not to mention accidentally bumping into each other on purpose etc. but I am looking forward to much less drama as when they reach puberty. I look also look forward to Hermione in this story finishing her O.L.W.S.  I'm hyper-sensitive from PTSD after raising two daughters. 

Here it is 2014 and still no end in sight.  Please finish this, it is too good and to frustrating to stop here,

You do know that as long as this story sits unfinished, I am going to pop in periodically and bug you, right?  Now I am not pressuring you.  I know that real life can be a bitch.  All I'm saying is that I probably have a good fifty years left in me, and I am going to continue to encourage you until I take my last breath.  Oh, but please don't wait that long as I do want to read the end, lol.

Hi Fawkes_07, I have enjoyed this so much! It is of course beautifully written and plotted. I think you've captured all the characters quite well. The sense of humor in this story is wonderful and was a great surprise. Love the interactions between H and Severus, and also between Severus & Draco. I see that it has been some years since you've updated. Please, please don't abandon this story! Happy writing!

Ah, I remember following this story every week. It's a shame RL got in the way and it's gone 3 years-ish without an update. I hope you're doing well and come back to it some day. Thank you for the wonderful half-fic, for what it's worth :)

What the what?? I followed you over from MNFF to see what I'd missed, holy mess!!!! I LOVE this story, it constantly shocks me!!

wow, this story just gets creepier and creepier, in the most interesting and hilarious way possible. this has to be the best story i have ever read on any fanfiction site. u are an awesome writer; i have never laughed this much at a story. i now see why mnff just couldnt bear it, lol, way too many disturbing things. i just got used to the thought of draco being a sex god in other stories, now u make him gay! bwahahaha, talk about a monkeywrench. im sad snape gave that 16-year-old release to the mares. i wished my girl hermione had gotten a piece of that. now that would have been fun to read and write, im sure, hehe. again, u are brilliant!

More Please!?!?!? I so like how this story is going.  Love the HG/SS relationship.  I so can not wait for more.

I tried to read this story when I was 16 years of age, back then I could barely read English (not my first language) and I had to consult the dictionary every 3 minutes or so but I do remember little bits of it... This amazing first chapter for example. It's so well written and so true to the characters. It's a pleasure to be able to read it again. 

Aww, Snape's going to be a father.  *snickers*

The age of consent in the UK is 16 not to mention the use of the Time-Turner so she's actually almost two years older than her peers.  She could've consented before.

You are a wonderful writer, and I always look forward to reading more of your story. This is byfar my favorite Snape/Hermione fanfic ever. I thank you soooo much for updating! I love love love everything about it! Are you though, planning to go canon and kill him off in the end, or will I have to wait and see? You make my week!

I went back and reread the last chapter to refresh the story in my brain. It has been a damn long time woman! Come back to the potterverse! We miss you. Im all sorts of confused about H's trouble in potions. Whatever could it be?

ROFLMAO!  Oohhhh noooo.  Snape, you silly man.  I was afraid something like this would happen.  Can wizards and centaur breed with each other?!  You really do love torturing Snape.  It's a fun kind of torture, though.
