Reviews for Heaven or Hell
Definitely at aptly named story. So much fun to see Severus arguing.
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Believe it or not, when I wrote this story in November of 2009 (it was my NaNoWriMo entry), I didn't know what to name it. Since I was going through so much turmoil, I jokingly called it "Heaven or Hell". The name stuck and seemed apt by the time I finished the story 30 days later. Thanks for reading. ^_^

Interesting start. Of course any story that starts with Snape not having died is good. :) Can't wait to see where this goes.
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Thank you. I hope you enjoy the rest of the story. ^_^

I like the story, but this chapter makes absolutely no sense. MM thinks that SS/HG might be angry with her and she wants to apologize and repair whatever damage she's created. To do this, MM invades SS's privacy, makes SS/HG very uncomfortable by smirkingly butting into SS/HG's personal sex life (like a controlling, busy-body aunt who has no social sense, self-control or respect for a younger adult's personal boundaries--let alone the personal boundaries of a professional colleague and subordinate), deliberately makes a childish and disrespectful power play by sitting in SS's favorite chair, and inserts herself into their personal weekend time when it's obviously grossly unwelcome? If anything, SS/HG should be telling MM to mind her own business and get the h*ll out. By doing what she did, MM cemented just how little respect she holds for SS/HG.I don't see either SS or HG putting up with that for the simple reason that they're not children.

She learned from Bumblebore. What else did you expect? Thanks for reading. ^_^

Yikes! Between the 'Severus War', prospective mother-in-laws (gets image of circling sharks with really big teeth), and escape routes blocked by the probation, that's quite a... situation. Sometimes 'Bloody Hell' is the only thing that can be said.

You said a mouthful! Thanks for reading. ^_^PS: Looking forward to Chapter 23 of "A Place in the World". Where is it? ^_^

and Severus, the third is a charm
Or does he have a meddling mum hidden in his sleeves, too?
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Since Eileen is no longer in the picture, I would guess Severus is on his own. ^_^

Bloody hell indeed. Geez, what meddlesome parents. If I did that to my kids they'd never speak to me.
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Molly has always been meddlesome. *grin* Narcissa just wants the best for Draco (and who could be better than Hermione). ^_^

Seems like Hermione was right about forgiveness.
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
She seems to be the forgiving type, at least after she exacts a little revenge first. ^_^

Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)

She'd better off and elope with Sev before the mothers from hell have her tied to one of their sons! :)
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
They can't elope until after the New Year or they'll be spending their honeymoon in Azkaban. ^_^BTW: When are you going to update "Limited Exposure" again? I'm needing my artistic fix! ~_^
Response from sunny33 (Reviewer)
Oops, sprung. Have done half a chapter but then got tied up getting my tax return ready (what a chore!). Will be back on it this week.

Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Caught in the act (almost), as it were. *grin* Minerva's a good egg, however. ^_^

I like that sort of experimenting! :)
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Yes, the results can be shattering at times. ^_~

Oh, poor Hermione! Everyone wants to be her mother-in-law!I am so glad you're updating again! Thank you for the lovely chapter!
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
I wonder what it's like being so popular with prospective mothers-in-law? I certainly wouldn't want to hurt their feelings now, would you? *ducks incoming hexes* ^_^

Poor Hermione, Molly and Narcissa, have more in common than they think. 
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Shhh! Don't tell them that. ^_^

25 chapters and only a chaste kiss! Get a move on, girl! :P
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
The story is rated "conservative" because I can't really write sex scenes well. It does heat up a little bit further on, but still not R or X-rated. Sorry. ^_^

Hermione became a cat? Well, no suprise there. Though the type is unusual, but it's nice to know Ron appreciated her fine form! I wonder what Severus will turn into??
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Don't know. The plot bunnies haven't been cooperating with me lately. *grin* Glad you like her inner kitty. ^_^
Poor Sev. He'll be bossed around something awful! (and love it) :)
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Ya really think so? ^_~
Hermione's been busy! :)
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Hasn't she though? What do you think of her inner kitty? ^_^
Makes me very keen to know just what happened at the Grangers' wedding. :)
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Everybody, and I mean everybody wants to know. *grin* Unfortunately, Matthew and Elizabeth won't tell me. ^_^
how about a sun-hungry lizard?
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Huh? You sure you got the right story? *grin* I don't remember a lizard and I wrote the thing! ^_~
Response from Bettina (Reviewer)
Sorry, I meant Snape's animagus-form. He'd have to spend hours sun-bathing.
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Ohhh! I get it now! That's an idea, although I don't get into it in this story. Maybe a side story--like some of my one-shots in this universe--if the right plot bunny strikes. ^_^
Hmm... Will this be the beginning of more for Hermione and Severus? I find myself quite curious to see how you finally break the ice between the two of them, since they're so comfortable here in your story as friends.
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
That's still a few chapters down the road. A hint, though. Minerva's unwittingly responsible. ^_~
Ah, a reconciliation between Narcissa and Andromeda! I love it. I wonder, in canon, just how long it takes before the two remaining Black sisters learn to forgive and forget. (One of the many reasons I find JKR's epilogue unbelievable, since the it would make Teddy an important point of commonality between Harry and Narcissa, and thus Harry and Draco.)
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Oh, I have to agree. Being Draco's 2nd cousin, Teddy would probably want to get to know him better if only to understand the division between the three sisters. Of course, he's luckier than Harry. Teddy had his grandmother and an extended family in the Weasleys if the Malfoys wanted nothing to do with him. However, I can't see that happening. JLR's epilogue didn't go far enough. It felt like she was tired and just threw all the loose ends in together and called it 'done'. ^_^
How appropriate that the motto of the Muggle University of Cambridge is Hinc lucem et pocula sacra - From here, light and sacred potions. Hermione's Muggle qualification would be a BA, not a BSc, whatever her subject of study.
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Thank you. Appreciate the correction. My britpicker must have missed that. ^_^
Response from Persevero (Reviewer)
It's an Oxbridge quirk.
It will certainly be an interesting holiday for Severus lol. I look forward to reading all about it!
Response from MsTree (Author of Heaven or Hell)
Thanks. The next chapter is in queue. ^_^
