He can celebrate at my house any day...

"Only Snape’s silky voice could make “celebrate” sound like “have a ten-hour orgy.”" - This is my new favorite fanfiction line EVER!!Great chapter, and I do hope the sentence above becomes a reality sometime in the *very* near future!

If he ever brought Hermione here, he would be sure to close the blinds. And maybe plant some fast-growing hedges....  If. All things considered, it wasn’t really much of an ‘if’. She fancied him, he fancied her, so what was the problem?Only Snape’s silky voice could make “celebrate” sound like “have a ten-hour orgy.” Exactly!!!  Now that's what I'm talkin' about.Lovely, lovely chapter, tonks.  I can't wait for the celebration!!!Beth

"Only Snape's silky voice could make 'celebrate' sound like 'have a ten-hour orgy.'" LOVE that line. And so true. *swoons* I'm thinking in OotP where Snape says "obviously..." Or later when he's telling Harry about Occlumency and unhinging minds. All I could think about was the Alan Rickman's voice is like an orgasm for the ears. Damn, hopefully he has more screen time in HBP. Am enjoying this story immensely. Entertaining, well-written, extremely Sexy!Snape, interesting plot, lemons. What more could a girl as for?!

Ohhh this story has me hooked! I love your Severus.... he's so nasty and sexy all at the same time.

Why isn't there a Severus for all of us??

I would say that for once i'm glad Rita write an article. clearly it helps them a great deal. I'll now wait very impatiently to see who will be the infortunate dragging back into the shop. An for the "ten hours orgy" of course. ;)

Whoop!! About time!!Can't wait till they celebrate!!

Now isn't it lovely... Once he has his mind made up, he doesn't waste much time, does he?

Great story.  Is Severus slowly becoming a very little less of a bastard?  I'm not quite sure yet.  Or was he deluding himself that he was a bastard in the first place?

I love the last sentence of this chapter. It so fitting to the mood of the story. Keep up the fantastic work!

D'oh! Slow, isn't he?

Yes!! They got the spell to work AND Severus realized his attraction to Hermione!! I can't wait for more! Great job...update again soon!~Jen

Are you posting from college? I should hop over to your LJ and see whats up with you!!!

Yeah Dobby! Way to help out! “This spell is Dark Magic, and yet you recommend it to me as easily as I would recommend shampoo to you!” I inhaled by apple when I read that line. It’s a dangerous chapter. I was hoping Snape would ask to be paid or thanked in sexual favors. Bummer. Sounds like Mr. Snape needs reading glasses! Tee hee

Great chapter Tonks girl!

Dude, I totally love this story.  I know I've told you before but seriously this is awesome.  I know its awful but I can't wait for more lemons!  Seriously theres awesome sexual tension between these two, especially the way you've written them!  Awesome job!  Cheers!  ~Brena

"She had a feeling that reworking the spell was going to be a long, difficult process, but it was certainly going to be interesting." I hope it will also full of fun ... and lemons (*hope fervently*) *grin*Ps :I absolutely love when they verbially fight. It makes the more intmate scenes more passionate...

The sexual tension is just great, i love what Severus says when he actually means something else Update soon xxx

Oh, brilliant!  I love this opening; what a fantastic job you do of catching us up and setting the scene for more.  Very nicely done!

It is evident that Hermione had been a sexually satisfying partner for Severus, enough so that he was planning to give her a couple of days to come to terms with her feelings about their liaison.And then he planned on returning to her shop on Wednesday to see if she would need more comforting.  Oh yes!  He's interested... very interested.And Hermione is interested, too.  The sex they had enjoyed had served to whet her appetite for more intimate knowledge of one Severus Snape, aka "Sex-on-Legs."  I loved Severus' little experiment to find out if Hermione still had an interest in him personally... specifically if she was still interested in having sex with him.  This project they have embarked on to alter the Retiiba Poss Poenic spell will be fun to follow, and I can't wait to get started!!!“It will be difficult,” he stated. “The incantation is very simple, which makes our job harder; there is very little material to work with, and the smallest alterations will have dramatic effects. We will have to experiment and test on ourselves--or, rather, on you, for I have no intention of risking myself for this--and it will take a copious amount of plain hard work.” The eyebrow quirked up in a silent question. I wonder what form Severus' experiment and test on Hermione will take?  There is the opportunity for unending good fun with the things Severus is liable to come up with!!!Great chapter!  I think my favorite line is when Snape keeps telling Hermione, "I'm ready when you are."  I love it!Beth

She's certainly right about the last bit, and he is having fun with this, isn't he?

This is great!  My favorite threesome is Serverus, Hermione, and Magic!  Everything has equal play here.  Can't wait for the next update.

Interesting! I can't wait to read how their partnership turns out. I really liked his little seductive ploy at the beginning; it was both humorous and well-written. Can't wait for more...update again soon.~Jen

Okay, so now we're in for the good stuff... I love it when Severus and Hermione are working together rather reluctantly, with all that sarcastic banter and tension in the air.

I like your spell.  I love it when fanfiction picks up the torch and continues inventing new magic stuff.  Thanks for this interesting tale.

Generally, if someone were crying in his vicinity, he was the cause rather than the cure.That's great!  I am really enjoying this story.  Thank you so much for writing it! 

"gaping at him like a Weasley staring at a Veela" ROFL!
