Years after the fall of Voldemort, a mysterious illness throws the wizarding world into chaos. While struggling to find a cure, Hermione learns new things about old acquaintances, and Severus learns that self-preservation may not be the path he wants to travel. Harry learns the price of neglect, and Ron learns why “May you live in interesting times” is a curse and not a blessing. Draco learns… very little at all.

Hello, dear readers and fellow writers!
I read and write in the Inuyasha and Harry Potter fandoms, preferring non-canon pairing that involve bad boys of the fandoms: Sesshomaru, Snape, Draco, Lucius (mmm, Slytherins), and Hermione is the Potterverse bicycle.
Completed fics in the Potterverse:
* The Devil is in the Details (HG/SS - M for language and violence - and I'm happy to mention that it was a Featured Story at TPP for 2/08 and nominated for the SS/HG awards Round Two)
* For All Intents and Purposes (HG/SS - M for language and violence)
Completed fics for Inuyasha:
* Darkness (Kag/Sessh - NC17 for smut - won multiple awards at IY groups)
* To Shed a Little Light (Kag/Sessh - NC17 for smut- won multiple awards at IY groups)
* Quadrangle (Kag/Sessh - NC17 for smut)
* Moving Pictures (Sessh/OC - NC17 for smut)
* Don't Know What You've Got 'til it's Gone (Kag/IY - NC17 for smut - and this was my first fic ever, so be warned)
WIP:
* Cereal Box Romance (Kag/Sessh - Inuyasha - updated irregularly- won multiple awards at IY groups)
* Primal (Kag/Sessh - Inuyasha - pretty much abandoned)
Upcoming projects? Yes. I've got a one-shot HG/SS cooking that I may never finish or post, and I've started a multi-chapter HG/SS as well. I will probably write a number of the chapters before I start posting, so you probably won't see anything new for a while.
Reviews for Becoming Silhouettes
OMG! So I started reading this fic today and I'm totally hooked! I love your writing for Severus and I absolutley love a bad-ass Hermione! You've got a lot of really great stuff going on here and I seriously wish I could sit up tonight and read everything you've got posted so far, but if I want to be not sleeping at my desk in the morning I really need to get some sleep. I just needed to let you know that I've jumped on your train here and I'm totally loving it! I'll be reading more tomorrow of course! Much Love ~ Brena
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
Yes, sleep is important. :) Hermione really was a bad-ass, so there's no reason she wouldn't be as an adult. She thought quickly on her feet and was pretty tough. So glad that you are enjoying it!
No this was a great update! I liked Draco's thoughts as he tired to rationalize out Hermione's motives, and his thinking he had a chance against Severus! Little does he know!How interestng that Lucius would have an answer to the muchrooms. One of the Dark Lord's projects - a Dark kwizard from the past, so evil that his name was erased? Hasn't the wizarding world learned that you don't go around erasing names! They could be important! Gads!Harry and Ron's - oh, that towel! How funny were they. But could Harry be right? Kiddnapped? Hmmm...Love it. Want more. Did you expect me to say anything less?
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
Thanks! Yeah, the wizarding world had a thing about names, doesn't it? He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named... Names can have power.I like to throw in a little humor so that things don't get too heavy. ;)Glad you liked it!
I only just discovered this so I am undisturbed by the gap in updates - so long as it isn't repeated (tries to sound stern!). Excellent and fascinating story - I love doped-up Severus. But what has happened to Ginny? I am completely hooked.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
Glad you like it! I'm trying to avoid any more lengthy delays between updates.
I just started reading this last night, and I'm very intrigued. There's a good plot going.Two specific comments. My cat hates grapefruit too. I was eating some once and he jumped up to my lap to sniff at it, then hopped down.Also, did you know that there is a plant called fireweed? It grows in northern climates. I saw it in Alaska on a cruise. It grows along highways and turns the bees red from their pollen.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
You know, I wrote this chapter so long ago that I can't remember if I (thought I) made that up or not. Glad you are liking it so far! It is a plot-heavy fic, that is for sure.
Great update! I love your writing, so you're stuck with me!I sincerely hope you stay in the fandom rhiannonofthemoon!
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
It's my honor to have you as a reader! Yes, I'll stay in the fandom. I'm reading DM/HG stories in the fandom at the moment. Right now, a crossover plot bunny is biting me. Such a pity that this site doesn't allow them - I love TPP!

Yes, still following! I was very excited to see this update -- even though I did have to do a bit of re-reading to refresh myself on details.
A lot happened, this was a very long chapter, and I'm quite impressed! Hopefully, you'll be able to give us another in the next.... few months? Hm?
LOL! You can smack me. Sorry.
Great story.
Author's Response: Yeah, I had to do a lot of reviewing to figure out where I was, too. I write several chapters ahead, so I've been sitting on this and the next while working on 10. I hope to have the next one posted in a matter of weeks, as opposed to months. My goal is to finish by Azkatraz. We'll see.
i am glad you haven't abandoned this wonderful story. love hermione's plan for getting "under severus' robes" great stuff! hope that other fandom appreciates you as much as we do. thanks so much
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
I don't think anyone reviews like you guys do - you're the best! Thank you :)
This is brilliant! I love the characters you have drawn, and look forward to reading more... soon?
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
Thank you! Sooner than later is the plan! I have to discipline myself to work on both fics equally. >.<
Thank you for this update! I was happy to find that Hermione is determined to pursue Severus. And Draco's contract will enable her to spend more time with him without being too obvious about her intentions. Yeah, right. Like Severus is stupid and won't remember her offer to give him a foot massage... and when he declined said offer... her parting words, “The offer will remain open.”Goody! I wonder what Severus' reaction will be when Draco tells him that their contract with A New You permits Hermione to monitor the brewing of all the potions Wyrm and Prince makes for her.I'm too afraid to think what might have happened to Ginny. I agree with Harry, this isn't like her to be out of touch with every one for so long.Thinking back on Draco's talk with his parents, I'm getting an awful feeling about the real outcome of those experiments on behalf of the Dark Lord. Could that evil bastard have done it himself? Could Voldemort have infused his essence within the spores without anyone – no one – realizing that he had done it? No.... Lucius had said that Voldemort was dead and gone. That being so, which of the Death Eaters could have discovered how to do this and used it to protect himself against death before the final battle? Hummmmmmm... Mulciber, Avery, Delahov.... Bellatrix Lastrange.... This is getting interestinger and interestinger by the minute.Well done!Beth
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
Thanks! I love to read all the speculation regarding Ginny and the Dark Lord. Yes, we've got some fun conflict ahead. :) The relationship between SS and HG must develop slowly - can't see how it would happen otherwise.
Great chapter, and I was able to follow the story easily even with the lack of updates. I understand perfectly how life can interfere with writing. I have a story on hiatus because of my son's health issues. Anyhow, I enjoyed the chapter and look forward to more.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
I'm glad you could - I had to do a bunch of reviewing when I started writing this one again - I'd forgotten a lot of details.I'm sorry to hear that your son has been ill. :( I hope he feels better soon.
YEAH!!! An update!! I've been reading this on another site and was unable to post reviews - so glad to see it here - This is a grand story - your characterization of HG, SS, and DM is spot on (at least my imaginings of them) and you are so creative in plot twists. Love your sense of humor! Thank you so much for your hard work - and here's to you continuing with this story line.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
Thank you! The nice thing about doing characterizations several years in the future is that one has a bit of leeway. A lot can happen in a decade or so. I'm glad you catch the humor - I wanted this story to be funnier, but it just wan't cooperating. :( Thanks for reading and reviewing here!
I'm glad to see an update to this story. I enjoyed it. Can't wait to learn what's happened to Ginny. Can you imagine the explosion when Severus learns Hermione found his guilty secret?
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
Yes, that explosion will be a challenge to get right, but it will be a lot of fun.
Oh, an update, thank you! I like the progress of this, although I am worried about Ginny, as you can imagine.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
You're welcome! Thanks for reading it! Yes, what's happened to Ginny? I wonder...
Yay, you updated! It's nice to see Hermione wanting to persue Severus. I think he may be in for a big surprise! And Draco... what can I say? He's a cad. A cad you love to hate. Not sure about Ginny. would think she'd alert someone if she just wanted to teach Harry a lesson. Hopefully, she's safe.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
Draco is a bit of a shmuck, but he's shameless about it. :) I think I hate to love him.
I love this story! My only issue is that he started taking pictures in her 4th year she would onlly be 14 or 15 years old.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of Becoming Silhouettes)
Yes, perhaps a tad creepy there - though if I recall correctly (and I might not, because it's been a while since I wrote that chapter), the first couple of pictures were from newspapers. However, he didn't take any action. Just watched.I think that a man who becomes a teacher at a very young age at the same school he attended could end up with a warped perception of age differences.
