Pity he can't shut up that older Sev's voice in his head! :)

Great chapter, I'm looking forward to the next already!

He can certainly crash a date! Poor Jared.

I think Severus should agree with Adin, it's really Severus in their noone has made his mind to be a 17 year old did they. The best thing for them both is for Severus to come clean then he can just be himself.

Adolescence, hormones and Severus Snape, all of this battling in one's head. Poor Adin. I don't envy his inner turmoil right now.

"[...]he had allowed the fringe to grow out, finding it useful, at times, for hiding his eyes[...]"Sev's going for an emo hairstyle?

yikes!  poor, dear, confused couple.  what a pickle.  i wonder how long it will take hermione to figure it out, or adin to tell her. 

It's 3 am and I'm posting a review.  Oh well, I'll keep it short...I love this story!  Severus may be having the internal battle from hell, but I hope he works it out soon before Hermione says piss off for good.  Thanks for posting.  Much Love ~ Brena

I think he should tell her who he is. I think she'll figure it out anyway.

Aw so cute!
Want them to kiss already, they are so right for each other!
Well written and really good idea!

OMG.  I loved how this chapter ended, well actually I loved how the whole thing progressed.  The idea of the masqurade ball was awesome!  Thanks again for this wonderful story!  Much Love ~ Brena

Finally, he finds the owner of the tattoo. :)

I love this story. Keep up the good writing.

Yay!! what a satisfying way to end a chapter. I am so glad you didn't have him deny his desire for her (I get used to that in this ship....) I cannot wait to see what happens next, this story is so fun and real. Really wonderful writing, but your chapters are much too short. Update soon!

Ahhh, he's had a taste now and won't find it easy to deny himself. I'm glad.

I love it... more, please? I can't wait to see what happens next- especially when Adin becomes Severus again. OH, THE DRAMA!

I was waiting for the girl to be Romilda Vane!  But since this story is not marked with the warning "Horror," I see that Adin was spared that rude awakening.

Glad to see him not blow it at the end.  If he had rejected her in this context, I doubt she would have forgiven him.

(*Looking very smug)  Called it!  Then again, on second thought, I can't really claim it was that difficult to figure out -- she was the most logical one to be the mysterious girl with the gryphon tattoo.  Hmmmmm...now that Severus knows who the object of his secret fantasies really is, I wonder how Hermione will react when she finds out who Adin really is!

that was incredibly delicious.  now he can concentrate entirely on her (and her tatoo).  thanks so much

This chapter was perfection. Thanks!

Perhaps being 17 and going through life over again will be what saves him?  Staying 17 to be with her...

What a fun chaapter!  I am glad Adin didn't run away
after the reveal!

Ok first I know it's Malfoy and not melfoy..I don't really know where my head is at..LOL. Second I have to say I love how Snap is interacting with everybody..Do you think Nev and he will end up being best friends? Hermione is falling in love with Snap..Hmmm. I like it. So will he tell her before she figures it out.If not how much butt kissen do you think he will have to do?

So who is the voice in his head? I sat down this morning and started reading your story. I fell right into it. I couldn't stop not even to review..lol. Part of me wants you to keep him as a teen and let him live out the life he should have had.The other part wants him back as an adult. Once they find the cure do you think someone will use a time turner to save Mr.Melfoy and draco? I can't wait for the next chappy.You have amazing talent.

Thank goodness for that, for one horrible moment I thought you'd made someone else possess the tattoo!!  Really enjoyed that, lets hope Hermione can pull him out of his older self.
