Reviews for Hilltop Cottage
Wow... I was totally not expecting that! What a 180! In a great way though! I wonder how they'll handle all the new-found publicity... will it be too much? I hope not! Great update, as always!
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
There had to be a clash of reality at some point, I think! Thanks for the review, I'm pleased you liked it.
I'm glad they don't feel awkward the morning after. And Harry and Minerva will just have to cope with it. This isn't that bad after all.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
No, it's not that bad. Update should be soon!
I love this fic, Beautifully written!
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
Oh, thank you very much, what a nice thing to say!
Very beautifully written. That was just so tender.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
Thanks you so much. I wanted it to be real but full of emotion.
Oh, so Han Solo of him!
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
That's what my reviewer on Ashwinder said too! I didn't understand it, now I do... thanks! lol... it was unintentionally!
Well, RL has to take priority every now and then. Welcome back. I'm so glad that things went as smoothly as they did. I think you did a nice job writing this scene so that it was believeable to the fact that they don't have a lot of collective experience, but yet didn't feel awkward. If they keep practicing, they will get even better ;) Thanks for the update!
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
Thanks! I wanted it to feel real and a bit fumbly!
First of all I'm so glad you're glad. What an amazing chapter. It was so sweet. I'm just sad he didn't tell her his love.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
lol... This is Severus Snape we're dealing with - we're lucky he took his boxers off! It will happen I think, but there are more hurdles coming.
Response from snitchette (Reviewer)
LOL ! I think you may have a point there. But with the bxers on it would have been very difficult to perform.
I've waited so long for this chapter, and you didn't disappoint. It was very steamy. I am looking forward to more, I want to see what their next obstacle will be in their relationship. I assume it will become public knowledge soon that they are together. I cannot wait to see how they react.And the last line...does he love her or does he not know how to express himself? I'm sure you'll answer all that as the story progresses.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
lol... are you a Seer,
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
??? Wait for the next chapter and you'll see what I mean. In response to your questions, both, I think.
That was quite sweet. I like that you included the awkwardness of having done that before.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
I wanted it to feel real, so I hope that came across.
Beautiful, wonderful, I love it...I actually squeed when the notice that this was posted came in...Well done, Whoohoo!!!!!
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
awww, thanks for being so enthusiastic for my story xx
Response from Becky (Reviewer)
I adore this story, I am saving each chapter so I can read it again and again....
Oh! Beautiful and sexy! It was well worth the wait! :)
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
ahh, thank you so much! I'm glad you thought so x
Ohhh, dear. What a mess. I love it.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
lol.. thanks! And thank you for leaving me such lovely reviews x
Oh no, poor severus thinks she's gone for good. Silly boy.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
Well, he's incredibly insecure and would think, well, why would she want to stay with me?
Response from mimmom (Reviewer)
Yes, he's had very little evidence in his life that anyone would want to be around him and nobody he could trust. Of course this is why I love Snape fanfic. So many of us want him to have something good, a chance at a good life.
Yey, let's find a bed indeed. Go Hermione. I'm glad she made the decision to confront him.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
She wouldn't let it lie, not after everything they'd shared so far.
Ohh, I can't wait for the next chapter! I'm glad the misery didn't last long. Severus gets things in his head and you just don't know where you'll end up.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
I know. And you just know it still won't be an easy ride, don't you?
Yeah !!GO Hermione!! Go kick his arse for jumping too quickly on wrong conclusions! He deserves no better!
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
lol... definately!
Damn Lily for making Severus so insecure! I love the contrasting emotions between the two of them: Hermione is happy and excited, Severus is furious and heartbroken. I can't wait to see what happens when she gets to his house! Great chapter... update soon!
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
Thanks. I hope you find the update as intruiging!
hooboy. i hope they get this straightened out! great update. thanks and happy new year smoochies
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
lol... don't worry - you know how I am with happy endings!
I do hope this means she's off to confront him.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
Confront, or comfort, I guess... It depends if he's still got PMS when she gets there!!
Response from kittyperry (Reviewer)
Oh dear, Severus with PMS - that is funny. I can't wait to read your next chapter. I love this story.
uh oh...this is going to be very very bad ~hides behind a shrub with a camera!~
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
lmao... ahh. So it's you then...!
Response from keske (Reviewer)
who me? why...uhhhhh NO! officer! i'm hjust your friendly neighborhood garden photographer! Ms Davis has LOVERLY shrubberies this year!
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
Sure. Next you'll be telling me you don't work Freelance for the Daily Prophet... Don't worry - I won't tell Severus!
Response from keske (Reviewer)
daily prophet, you say? why not me! i work for the Metropolis Daily Planet...oh hey clark! how are ya? lois get eaten by godzilla again...too bad...oh hey, Sev's gunna argue with mione again...i'm taking bets!
yay insecure angsty severus!is it terrible that i enjoy that side of him?i do request that you fix this unfortunate little misunderstanding with all due haste, of course.this is a great story.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
lol... yes, I love that side of him too! And of course, Hermione will kiss it all better!
Can I please just give Severus a hug? Sure, I would end up looking at the business end of his wand should I try (especially at the moment), but, gah, way to pull on my heart strings! I just hope they can sort this all out, and quickly! Hermione is going to need to pretty tough though to get through to him cos I have a feeling he is going to be beyond furious when she gets there. Great chapter, and I'm excited the next one is already in the queue :-) xXx
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
You could try the hugging thing by all means but on your own head be it! Beyond furious would be a pretty good way to decribe what happens next, you know! Thanks for reading x
Well at least she has the sense to do something. I mean, she is going to find him, right? I hope she gives him hell for being such a complete idiot. But she also ought to give him a small break. He is kind of inept at these things. It is just going to take practice and some serious boosting of his self esteem. But she is a go-getter, and if she wants him, she'll have him. Even if the chase is full of pitfalls.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
I don't need to add anything to what you've just written! lol... you'll see. Next chapter is almost up!
Oh what a horrible place to stop this chapter! I was hoping for her to confront him NOW.....and now I have to wait till next chappie (sulks).Please make the next one twice as long for us, to reward us all for patiently waiting?
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
I think the next chapter is longer, not sure - I just stop when it feels right!
Well, she had a nice day getting prepared for her evening - too bad it was all for naught. How was she to know he's brooding over a miscommunitaction. Poor Severus, it's not at all what he thinks and is miserable for it. I hope I know where Hermione is going, cuz that will be one hell of a chapter if I'm right.
Response from neelix (Author of Hilltop Cottage)
Well, it's not going to be pretty, sadly! But I have high hopes!
