A missing scene set in the 'What Goes Around' universe. A bit of TLC is needed...

Alan Rickman obsessed ex-civil servant now living the good life in France. I only write in the good ship SS/HG. However, if you think that the only way these two can get together is by some sort of forced marriage, 'binding' or whatever, don't read my stories. You will be disappointed.
Reviews for Bed Rest
Oh, my! That was... intense. I really, really liked it. I love your ability to inject humor into seriously hot scenes without taking away from the fire. The elves at the end were wonderful, too!!

thanks, glad you liked it
So wonderfully sweet! Sweet and sexy. Poor Severus. I'm glad he was able to seduce her.
Response from melusin (Author of Bed Rest)
thanks. He got there in the end
O.o. Love among the minors! How completely fitting. I thoroughly enjoyed this -- Severus is so crafty getting Hermione just where he wanted her.

Thank you. I had great fun doing this outside the confines of the drabble series
Response from Bambu (Reviewer)
I can imagine. Writing a drabble series is a lot of fun, but you can't quite wax lyrical in the same way. This was, in many ways, a gorgeous sequel/epilogue.
I have read several of your stories, but never "What Goes Around." So before reading this, I read the story all the way to the Epilogue, then I read this, and then I went back to the Epilogue. In short, this was delightful! Not horrendously long, easy to read in one sitting. I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. And I love that Hermione and Severus continue their romance as portraits.I also like the fact that the wizarding world later assimilates Muggle technology into their world. Why not have the best of both, right? And just as the Muggle races are becoming homogenized, so with wizards and Muggles. It makes perfect sense.This really was so much fun. And I recognize that a great deal of thought went into it. Well done.

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed the whole thing
Ah, this is complementing the What Goes Around beautifully! so many things I loved about this story - the spot on dialogues and Purdy and thought up till the very end I was thinking you'd leave is with all this sexual tension hanging tangibly in the air, I think I would have been fine with that, because it was so incredibly well done. The fact that they didn't manage to hold out is a charry on top. *applauds*

thanks. Glad you liked it :)
This was just delightful! I went and reread 'What goes Around' just to get in the proper head space. I have always thought casting that patronus was a stupid ass idea for his weakened state. Or maybe it just got him into her bed all the faster? Im glad even Purdy and Eljay got a happily ever after. ((hugs))

thank you Molly. It was something I've wanted to write since i finished what goes around. Glad you enjoyed it
The SS/HG was hot, and I loved the interaction between Purdy and Eljay at the end. :)
Response from melusin (Author of Bed Rest)
thank you
Thank you so very much for this funny, sensual, and lovely addendum to one of my favorite stories. It's everything a dedicated SSHG shipper could wish for.
BethPS- I love Eljay and Purdy.
Response from melusin (Author of Bed Rest)
thanks - glad you enjoyed itI couldn't very well leave them out of the action now, could I?
Oh, THANK you, for the perfect addition to a fic I absolutely loved. I also love the way Hogwarts itself is a character here, just as it was in the original fic.

thank - glad you enjoyed it
Oh goodness that was so hot! *Fans face* Please excuse me I need to umm.....
Response from melusin (Author of Bed Rest)
Praise indeed :)
~happy sigh~Sweet, sensual and romantic. Who could resist that voice...I'm glad there was a happy ending for Purdy, too.
Response from melusin (Author of Bed Rest)
Thanks - glad you liked it
Hurray! Happy endings all around! I'm especially pleased to know Eljay and Purdy have such a lovely future to look forward to after this wonderful missing scene. Long live SSHG and long live the house-elves!
