I wonder how Severus will react to his new robes. I think it'll only be a matter of time before Severus will want a real marriage to Hermione. Seems like she's already worming her way into his heart. I hope Hermione is able to aquit him of the murder charge. But I guess that's all in good time.

Awwww... I can just see his face full of wonder, a boy and his slinky. :)

Hey Apollina!  This chapter was amazing!  I loved how Severus actually took care of her and also took the opportunity to look at her work.  I'm hoping maybe he can help her organize her shit better.  Seriously theres no need to be all strung out on happy pills if you've got a Snape in your corner!  :-)  Hehehe.  I can't wait to see what happens next.  Much Love ~ Brena

Very good chapter, I love the image of him "marking" her paperwork!!! Great work!

Wonderful! So enjoying your story, the interaction between Snape and Hermione are great. Looking forward to more!

Read this on AFF, all I can say is love it!

I enjoy rereading a currently posting fic. It soothes me while waiting for an update. It allows me to not be a stalker fangirl. That is a good thing!10 points from Granger Industries for snaping at Lee Jordan in his new baby haze. I am sure the twins will be happy to welcome him back. I am not surprised that Severus does not clue into why Hermione might carry a full medical potions kit with her.

wonderful!!  nice juxtaposition of the realities of the "successful working girl" and the "condemned prisoner" - really enjoying your work - thanks for all the time you put in!

I think that was really sweet of Severus to care for Hermione like he did. I think she's more upset because she allowed herself to relax for once, than for the fact he took care of her. But I think that once she notices he got a lot of her work done, she'll appreciate it. Severus seems to genuinely want what's best for Hermione, and that throws her off, since she only knows him as her professor.

Poor Hermione. I wouldn't want to be in her shoes. I am however curious to know what will be her rezction when she'll discover Snape's comment on her work papers. Can an Azkaban prisonner be hired in a company? Or maybe this will help him make his decision about his freedom... I know I'm asking a lot, and maybe you'll get confuse enough and give me a clue for what will happen in the future. *grin*

Liquid Sunshine.  Hmm.  I have a few patients who could do with some of that! :)

you are fast becoming one of the authors i am most excited to see on the "just-updated" list.  i absolutely love the bit about when she falls asleep and her glamours start coming apart.  and the Assam....mmmm.

Ooo, I hope once she gets over her anger she realizes that he could really help her out of her staffing situation.  Another great chapter, showing him putting together the puzzle of Hermione.

Even now before we hit double digit chapters Severus is noticing details about Hermione that shows he cares. Her glamour, her perfect hair etc...Makes me smirk yes it does.

The description of Hermione's work day is just as horrific the second time I read it. Ugh. I am glad things have turned out with her buiness the way they did. What a soul anchor.

It was enough happy juice to make a Dementor produce its own Patronus.  That's my favorite line in the entire chapter!  Tee hee!  I can't wait until Hermione sees the notes Severus wrote in the margins of her notebooks.  And like he said, what else can she do to him?  He's already in Azkaban.  Besides, his insights may be so clever that she starts coming over every night and not just twice a week...Lovely stuff!  Looking forward to the next chapter!

The renovations on his cell have begun and so has the time she spends in prision with him. Ahh the good old days .

Actually, I believe that Rowlings Snape is a prickly thorn with the most tender  roses of any character in her books. Well said!

Poor Hermione, trying to cram 48 hours into a 24 hour day...  It's a good thing she doesn't have access to a Time-Turner, or she'd be physically 80 years old by now!  And already her mind is working on magical air fresheners for Severus' cell.  Sure, it'll probably make her some good money once it's invented, but she's doing it on his behalf!  Is there perhaps a tiny corner of her brain that doesn't really believe he's a filthy murderer, or at least doesn't want to?  It would be so easy for her to provide him with items of average quality, but she's insuring that what he gets is well-made and to his liking.I can't wait to see what happens next.  Hopefully Severus will be able to lighten the load of Hermione's schedule in the future as a return gift to her...  I can just see the two of them eventually "talking shop" on her visits to the cell, brainstorming ideas for the business and thoroughly enjoying themselves...On to the next chapter!

Aw, Severus took care of her, sort of. Poor Hermione sounds really far gone.  That's just sad...  Nice work.

Good chapter -- has Hermione charmed the calendar she gave Severus to show when she plans to visit?

Oh, this is hard. You thougt that it was becoming to fluffy.

Oh, I am a bellydancer, I see that I make practice in my sexlive.I like the story a lot, and happy that your write again

Poor little rich boy... And Hermione's day sounds awful too, I'm looking forward to seeing the changes their mariage will bring... Great chapter!!!

he wouldn’t dare throw them atop his fetid mattressI hope she will provide him with a new one. How is she going to take advantage of him on such a filthy thing? *grin*
