Darned Child and Devsgma have combined their talents to tell you the story of what has happened to our favorite pair. It starts with a few letters from one extremely grouchy Potions maker to the manager of a used book store. Canon through Deathly Hallows to the point of Severus Snape's supposed death at which point it becomes AU.

~~SIGH~~..Oh I love this chapter...I'm so glad he stayed with her, I am hoping he will eventually feel safe enough to stay the night...Well done, this story just keeps getting better and better....Can hardly wait for more!!! Squeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
LOL. Thank you from the both of us.
"What shall we have for dinner this evening, my chicken? One of your relatives perhaps?"for some reason this brought on a bout of hysterical laughter. thank you.
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
I do have fun having Simon tease poor Yorick. Yorick allows this for some unknown reason of his own. Maybe he likes him?
I say! That made me tired, and I was only reading it. *wicked grin* At least he chose to attend to the right 'bird'. No insult intended to Hermione, I just smirked as I read it. Lovely and lemony...
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
LOL! That didn't even occur to me until now!
Oh, lordy, it should be interesting to see his reaction to those words. Mmm, but such sweet lovemaking...mmmm.
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
LOL. Thank you and it won't be long, I hope. I shall get my - er - self in gear and get the next part submitted this weekend.
thank you so very much for making hermione NOT realize who she's corresponding with. the letter that she sends, about how she feels she's known someone connected with him, is realistic. I like it.
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
The words and feelings of our darling Hermione come from the talented Darned Child. We're tried to keep it as realistic as is possible, but - in a world with magic - what's impossible? ;) Thank you so much for your review and welcome! We're always very pleased to gain a new reader.
hot! hot! hot! phew! that was a close almost misunderstanding. great update. thanks so much
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
They do have their moments, don't they?
OH GAWD. Amazing.
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
Hee! Thank you from the both of us.
OMYGODOMYGODOMYGOD. It's ... I'm lacking words. Thank you fot this most wonderful update.
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
LOL. You're very welcome.
I’m quite thankful to the „Random Story“ functionality the site offers – it came up with your story yesterday. Well, the result was a rather bleary-eyed me this morning (I’d been reading until I couldn’t hold my eyes open anymore), who couldn’t wait to get home from work to continue reading. I rather liked the way you started to tell the story through the letters, and how they changed their tone from business correspondence to friendly, from flirty to … letter sex? Then you added the mystery of his nightmares into the mix and stirred thoroughly. Well done!Thank you for a very enjoyable read.

Thank you so very much,
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
! We always enjoy hearing that our hard work is appreciated. Believe it or not, we hesitated about actually posting the story because of the letter format, but it seemed to be well received and we're quite happy with the results. ;)
At least there is some hope there.
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
Until death knocks down the door and drags me screaming and kicking toward my final destination – there will always be hope. ;)
SIGH!!! I LOVE IT!! Poor Hermione, I wanted to smack simon for just getting out of the tub and not giving her the chance to explain, thank goodness she doesn't give up easily! LOL....Wonderful as always!!!! Looking forward to more!
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
LOL. Thank you very much for your kinds words. ;)
Okay, you are doing a marvellous job at avoiding the inevitable. But could you please get on with it now? ;-)
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
"Avoiding the inevitable." Not really. Building a foundation actually. Part Seventeen will be submitted (hopefully) tomorrow, but it will take a few days to be posted I'm sure. I only hope you'll like what we offer. ;)
very good, steamy
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
Almost as steamy as the water, huh? ;) Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a note. We do appreciate them very much.
Oh, wow. By the beginning of the chapter, it looked like it wasn't going to even make it this far, but there have been some absolutely beautiful moments.
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
Picture a slighty red face here, as I had to re-read the chapter to know what you were referring to. We're a few chapters ahead and I'd lost track. This – so far – has been one of my favorite chapters to work on. Coming to terms with what each of them are and dealing with it was very, very... I'm lacking a word strong enough to convey what I mean. Meaty? Sounds like a butchershop. ;)I know on my end I had to stop and give a great deal of thought to how my version of Severus would respond and it wasn't always easy. Other characters I've written would have gone all soft and mushy, but I have a hard time seeing Simon/Severus that way. It makes it difficult sometimes. Hee! Thank you for the review, which is all I started out to say.
oh what a horrible place to finally be left hanging, it breaks my heart when they are at odds. Hope to see more soon.

Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
There are two more chapters in the que. It won't be long.
gads... hope this gets better soon, I know angst makes a story better but this is painful to get through, which obviously makes the writing well done.
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
Well, we didn't do it for the angst, honestly. We were making sure all the dark corners were swept out so Simon couldn't hide in the any longer. ;)
Response from gersknightlady (Reviewer)
ahhh, thanks for that clarification. I really have enjoyed this story very much.
sigh at least there is that... hope he realises he's in love with some one else soon.
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
Uhm - we'll see?
wow really emotional and horrible situation, well written
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
Thank you.
ugh gads thats horrifying, good work.
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
That was a very satisfying chapter to write. Thank you again for all the reviews you've left. Each and every one is treasured.
Maybe they'll be reunited for the new year. I don't like them too much appart from each other. I know Simon's been an arse but that's he'll always be. She should be used from her schooldays by now.
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
She might be used to what he's like, but if she didn't stand up to him - she'd end up being second best and that's not good. ;)
I'm so happy to see your story here. Now I will receive an alert when yiou update. I love your story .
Response from devsgma (Author of Beyond 84 Charing Cross Road)
