Hermione and Severus have had little contact with each other since the war ended, but now that they are both stuck attending the 847th Annual Symposium for Potions Academia, that is about to change.

Reviews for The Symposium
“Had I not spent the better part of the last two days in your company, I wouldn’t be so sure it was really Severus Snape who just said that.”^ LOL Really, they're both quite selective about the rules they break. :DI'm rather amused that Umber in fact accused Severus of what he didn't do. There was no following anyone around, just sneaking into his quarters. Severus 1, Umber 0.Awesome that Severus seems to be sticking around much longer than normal this time, and the hand kiss was lovely.Looking forward to what's coming up next. ^_^
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Heheh :) It's true - they are selective, and Snape only ever really breaks rules when he thinks he has to :p Glad you liked this chapter! Thanks!
Great chapter!
That kiss on the knuckles was perfect! I liked howSnape "asked" for permission.
Keep up the good work! :D
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
I love it when he "asks" for permission to kiss Hermione too :) Thanks so much!
So all they need is a sample of the potion and a Floo. lol Severus' demeanor is so spot on in this. Although, why Hermione was surprised that a exDeathEater, spy would break into a man's room to snoop, was funny. I have expected her to be a bit more proactive. But maybe Harry didn't rub off on her.
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Heheh, well despite everything, its easier for me to see Hermione as willing to go along with a cause if she deems it worthy, but still be appalled about rule-breaking :p Silly girl:) Thanks for reviewing!
The plot thickens. I am really getting into your story now :)
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Thank you on behalf of myself and the rest of team neptune :)
wow! Such a chaste kiss, and yet - HOT!Nice update!
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Hot Chasteness is my middle name :) Thanks a bunch for the review!
Nice job, Brandy. It seems that Umber is definitely up to no good. And he's aware that Snape is following him. Severus better watch out for a trap. Nice leettle kees at the end.
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Heheh, yep its time to turn on the subtlety full blast :) Thanks so much :) Glad you enjoyed the kiss :D

Awesome. :D
Can't wait for the next chapter.
Author's Response: Thanks!
What is that man up to? If anyone can find out it will be team SnapeGranger. "The next few days were bound to be very interesting." Oh, I sure hope so ;)
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Indeed - they are the perfect team to riddle out this plot of Umber's :) And yes, very interesting indeed! Thanks!
oh, hand kissing. how gentlemanly
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
He is from the old school :) Most of them are gentlemanly. Thanks for reviewing!
Umber is a lout! Nice chapter.
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Thanks for reviewing :) Umber is a lout indeed :)
Umber is a toad and needs to be taken down!It would seem Snape took Hermione's comment about not knowing how to behave in civilized company to heart. Apparently he has perfect manners when he chooses to use them!
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
What Severus and Hermione need is some detol :) That would kill that toad! And yes, yes he does know how to use his manners when he needs to :) Thanks!
Maybe it's me, but I feel like not much happened in this chapter. Though I think back, and I suppose I'm wrong. Anyway, I enjoyed reading it, and I look forward to more.
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Thanks for reviewing :)
Umber wouldn't be related to Umbridge by any chance? He sounds very toady! :)
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Hmmmm well not as far as I know, but you might have something there :) He does seem very toady! Thanks for the review!
With the two of them teaming up, the other guy doesn't stand a chance. Good chapter.
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Not a chance in the world :) Thanks for reviewing!
Another good chapter! :) I like the pair of them teaming up. The kiss to her hand was very sweet. :)
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Heheh yep, team Grape is a good team :) And thank you - glad you liked the hand-kissing action :p Thanks for reviewing!
Could love be brewing at the symposium? I hope so. Can't wait for the dynamic duo to take down Umber. What a pompous arse!
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
It may be brewing indeed :) He is a pompous arse! Thanks for reviewing!
Nice to see Severus and Hermione teaming up, and I enjoyed Severus's version of a compliment. :)Amusing to see the two of them being the peanut gallery in the crowd; once upon a time, Hermione would have been shushing Harry and Ron, and Severus would have been handing out detentions like nobody's business. ;)Kind of amused that after the fishy man with the fishy smell, Hermione wanted fish and chips, lol.Looking forward to seeing what they come up with to get him. ^_^
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Yes, they will make quite the interesting team. And the times have certainly changed since the Hogwarts days. Thanks for your review!
Interesting start. I'm curious to learn more about what Hermione's up to in her research and see how she entangles Snape in it.
The first thing that came to my mind after reading the chapter was " no it's already over" then I wondered what could be the prompt words as I didn't notice anything weird or strange words. You even manage to put a word from last week's list. That was a very good chapter. I haven't finished reading the other entries but you already are in good place for my vote this week.
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Wow! Thank you so much! That's quite a compliment!! I'm glad the words weren't noticeable, I was worried that they would be.
Lovely chapter :) Great set-up for my chapter up next!
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Thanks!
Ah, the plot--and the relationship--thickens.I especially like Hermione's comment: "Oh, yes, do let’s unleash the unstable thoughts of all the crazy people out there."
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
Hahahahaha! Thanks! and thank you for betaing this for me!!
oooh, gryffindor and slytherin plotting, i love it!
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
muahahaha they are brilliant together, aren't they? i love it too!
Yeah, this is looking great. I like that they will team up and get this tosser. :) “The fact that you are the least annoying person here.”I liked that line. :)
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
awww thanks!!! I liked that line too, I was really excited when I wrote it.
Next chapter...and hurry please. Marvelous story
Response from Neptune (Author of The Symposium)
lol Thanks!
