I am a longtime fanfic fanatic, having entered the realm via Buffydom. One day I read a Willow/Severus crossover and I was hooked – on Snape that is! He's been in every HP story I've done so far.
I write in multiple fandoms on LJ, esp. BtVS and Firefly. If you're interested in reading my fic for other/crossover fandoms, it can be found at:

So this is an Exhibit A of what "worth the wait" looks like. And the final little vignette was very touching. Yay!

Thanks! I'm really glad you liked the chapter and thought it worth the wait! Also good to hear that you liked her morning scene!
Marvelous, as always!And so very hot! My dreams last night were not the innocent fuffy clouds I am used to, and I am blaming you! 
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm really glad you enjoyed the chapter and found it lead to fun dreams!
Why didn’t I research a charm to do this?
I can imagine Hermione thinking that. Now I want to know if Severus was aware of that thought!
If you ever spoof this, I can just see Severus having a problem with premature ejaculation. I don't think he could really be more of a sex god for this installment. Lucky, lucky Hermione.
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm glad you liked the chapter! Yes - that did seem like her - I'm glad you thought so too. Well, I think a sex god would never worry about coming too soon, so he's a sex demi-god perhaps!
Perhaps because it’s all in his cock?
OMG! Gods, but this chapter was HOT!!
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed the chapter and that line! (grin)
Are you really sure that it's chocolate that you can't get enough of? The details in this chapter lead me to believe that you have done intense, probing research into this subject...of course, all for the sake of artistic integrity! LOL. I'm glad it happened for them and can't wait to read his POV.
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed the chapter! I did do research, but the information gathered for this chapter was obtained not so recently (sigh). SS next!
Wow! Definitely worth the wait. I love your writing.

PHWOAR!
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it! That's my favorite 'hot' sound!
Finally, the bells & whistles! yay! Does a happy dance for everyone! Slow build up, but a very nice payoff.

::melts::
So very, very worth the wait.
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm really glad you liked it and found it both melting and worth the wait!
Response from firefly124 (Reviewer)
You're welcome. And it really is extremely hot. This is one of those scenes I know I'll come back to when I just need to read something really steamy.
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks again. I always wonder about my sex scenes.
It's about time! Poor Severus has worked hard for this. Very hot. Loved it.
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it and found it hot!
Here's a bit of chocolate Sweets.
Very nicely written. Thank you.
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm so very glad you enjoyed the chapter! (nibbles choco, then says, 'what the heck,' and takes a big bite)
*thud*
Oh my. I was a complete puddle of goo the moment she said, "How deliciously dexterous!"
Definitely worth the wait! Although I agree with Severus - don't make us wait that long again. *winks*
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter and thought it worth the wait!
Each bodes well. I just LOVE this Severus!!!
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm very glad you liked the chapter and this characterization of Severus!
Wonderful!
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed the chapter!
Finally. I'm surprised Snape didn't spontaneously combust trying to be subtle.
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm glad you liked the chapter! His Slytherin nature barelly keeps him in check!
Aaack! Ubiquirk, I love the slow build-up of tension (and other things) in this wonderful tale, but I can only respond to the last two chapters with your excellent quote from Severus:"I find myself curling my hands into tight fists to keep from springing up to yell for (you) to just bloody well get on with it!"Hoping the next chapters do---and if things get much hotter my poor computer is going to self-combust, but as long as it lasts till I can finish the chapter, who cares?Bravo!
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm so glad you liked the chapter and the drawn-out UST! (laughs) Yes - I suppose that line can pertain to the readers as well! Nice catch.
Yay!! Wahoo!! :leads parade:
It's seemed like a long wait for these chapters, but oh my was it worth it. Much more to follow?
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed the chapter! Yes - I took a bit of time off to write Back in Black and a sshg exchange fic, but there are only 2 more chapters of this story to come!
I'm a few chapters behind on reviewing...I"m sorry! These are guh-worthy :)
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I can't tell which chapter you're on because this review is showing for the first chapter. But I'm glad you're enjoying things!
Tease. Ok she finally admits she has the hots for him and you gave us a cliffie.........Wah! Still a great story.
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm so glad you liked the chapter even with the cliffie!
Yum! Snape has certainly been very patient in his slow seduction, and deserves all that's coming to him ... *smirk*
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm really glad you liked the chapter and all of the slow seduction! Lots of stuff coming to him! (big grin)
He was so obviously aroused. I knew it from the last chapter! :D
I always love how you show both sides of things. It's very intriguing and quite effective.
Another brilliant chapter! Can't wait for the next one :) Good job.
Response from ubiquirk (Author of Ladder)
Thanks! I'm so glad you liked the chapter and find seeing things form both POVs intriguing!
