Nice. Go Hermione! I'm glad she didn't let Snape take the lead. I can't wait for the next chapter. Keep up the good work! ~Jen

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Thank you! Hermione's bossy, so she's not about so sit back and let Severus do all the work.

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

I will try, but there are essays for college in the way. Thanks fo the support and enthusiasm--that helps get the muse going!

Oh yeah, way to go Hermione! I hope what ever they have in store for him is very personally humiliating. I love this story, it's funny and romantic in a Snape sort of way.

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Thank you! I'm thinking up evil plans right now.

You go Hermione. Don't forget Ron while you're at it.

Muahahaha! Sic him, Hermione! Tetchy Severus? What a threat! Now, what is she threatening him with? Heehee!

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Oh, you'll see just what's in store for Flourish...muaha.

The very best revenge is well-planned and totally unexpected--with a frisson of menace and the knowledge that one being revenged upon is legally and morally in the wrong.

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

That is exactly right.

Yay! I was doing a little dance this morning when I received the email that this updated! Thank you so much for getting back to it! And I'm so happy that their spell worked! I was also really shocked that flourish was the vandal himself. Please update again soon. Cheers ~ Brena

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Thank you! I was thinking of doing some really twisty thing about who the vandal was, but I decided that nothing would surprise people more than the obvious culprit.

<i>she got the impression Severus had just done a wizard equivalent of checking the sliding pump on a shotgun</i>  I love this. Thanks for having Hermione take control and Severus for letting her. This chapter was definitely worth waiting for.

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Thank you! I see a lot of fic where Severus is always playing white knight when Hermione's in trouble, and that just doesn't fit with my idea of Hermione.

irishredlass

Gee it is soo nice to have connections.  I would love to know her agenda of activities

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

She's got plently planned for Flourish, don't worry.

I absolutely love this story; I'm sure I've read part of it before so it was great to catch up on it again now; this chapter is, as usual, well written and intriguing!

I shall keep reading this now.  You are, without doubt, an amazing writer.  I don't think anyone portrays Severus quite as well as you! :-)

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Wow... thank you. That's quite a compliment. *blushes*

Ooooh, thanks for finally updating this one! I can't wait to see what Hermione's plan is...

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Sorry for the wait. Life is crazy. I'll try to get the next one up in less than three months.

this story is so much better than I thought it would be when I started reading it!  I can't wait for the next chapter!

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Er... I'll take that as a sign that my writing has improved since last february (my god, this story is over a year old...)

Response from mock_turtle (Reviewer)

more just that your summary was a bit bland.

cmwinters

Ack!  Too short!But I loved Severus flying to her defence, and then submitting to her because he understood the power play.Can't *WAIT* to see what Hermione's got planned.And yes, fucking into the mattress.  Sounds like an excellent way to spend the evening!

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Sorry for the brevity--but if I had tried to write more, god only knows when I would have posted it. Thanks!

the comment about the dress is priceless; I haven't seen hermione say anything like that before.and I can't wait to see what flourish throws at her.

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Thank you! I love writing witty dialogue--it's fun!

Go Severus! PDA!!! I never thought that he actually would go for a PDA especially with Hermione or anyone!!!!!Update really soon!

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Yay for PDA! I feel like severus, once he's determined about something, doesn't really care what the world thinks. He's also possessive, and PDA is a way of staking a claim. Thank you!

Ooooooh This chapter was Awesome!  (Sorry it took me so long to read)  Anyways, OMG I loved how they both dealt with everything that was happening and how they were feeling and well it just makes me excited!  I know I'm rambling I'm just kinda giddy with the way that this story is going its just awesome.  Thanks for the update.  Cheers!  ~Brena

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Yay it Works!  Woo - Hoo!  But Ooooh do I hate the Flourish Guy!  What a Creep!  This chapter was great because we got to see them actually working on the spell, trial and error.  It was fun hearing Severus discribe how Hermione gets so focused on a project that she doesn't eat or bathe or anything.  Good stuff.  Cheers!  ~Brena

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Thank you! I love obsessive!Hermione.

what a terrific story!  it never ceases to amaze me how several people can take a general premise, utilize the same characters and come up with entirely different outcomes.  i love your characters as they ring so truly.  thanks so much and o look forward  to the next chapter.

Now that was just plain FUN!  OH, what an enjoyable chapter to read!  And you left us on 'sort' of a cliffie, but it's the good kind of cliffie--not the "Oh, no, what's going to happen NOW?" kind, but the "Oh, goodie, I can't wait to see THIS!"  kind!  At least two people need to get some serious comeuppance, and two others need to...well....as I said, can't wait for the next!  (grin)

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Thanks! And everyone will eventually get what's coming to them.

WOW!! I absolutely LOVED this chapter!! Wonderful job! I loved the fact that Severus took matters into his own hands as well...very in character. Fantastic job...keep up the wonderful work and update again soon!~Jen

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Thank you! I like it when Severus does the propositioning sometimes--it seems like it's always Hermione.

What I would give to be kissed by Severus like that!!! What a way to fight Skeeter, than taking an untrue story and making it truth. I'm sure she won't know what to do with herself. Especially combined with Hermione's curse. I can't wait until the next chapter!

Response from tonksinger (Author of Rare, Dangerous, and Unusual)

Thanks! Mm, that kiss was fun to write.
