Oh, dear.  A nosy Albus.

omg! now that i'm back in TPP, i'm glad to see one of the nc-17 stories i first fell obsessed with! i can;t remember from which website i saw this first, but i loved it so much! don't worry, I won't spoil the rest from the others. all i can say is, this fanfic is the bomb!

Wonderful chapter!  Progress, lovely progress.

Boy, Dumbledore's a sneaky one, isn't he?  But, I can overlook his meddling when it is in the name of hooking these two up.  I think my favorite part was Hermione's dramatic exit at dinner, and then Dumbledore's hearty approval.  At least Severus didn't stay mad.  This looks promising...

Ooh, that sly little old matchmaker!

My, oh my.  Dumbledore can be as relentless as a bloodhound when he gets a whiff of a burgeoning relationship among his staff or the students.  I wonder if there is some way that he might be able to insure that Severus and Hermione do not run afoul of the rules without letting them know that he's plotting.  After what Minerva had told the Headmaster what she had about "Their demeanor doesn’t suggest business…" I'm more convinced that both the Headmaster and the Head of Gryffindor would like to see Severus and Hermione make a go of this.... now how to help them without them knowing their being helped.Once again I'm looking forward to the next chapter!  Beth

Now it is becoming oh so tortuous in a delicious way that Dumbledore has his sticky fingers in the pot. And involving Minerva? Oooohhhh old biddy alert LOL!

Actually, I think he'd think it was a very Slytherin thing to do to get him to get close to her!  The one thing I was really suprised with, is that once he got into her head he didn't look for any reciprocated feelings towards himself!  There's a little upstanding gentleman in him after all!

This relationship is starting off well.  She lures him with charms, he uses Legilimen on her, so... I guess that makes them even?  I'm glad that Minerva didn' fly off the handle even though she thinks there is something going on between them.  She may prove to be an ally to both before all is said and done.  As for the dreams, if I was having those, I would have already poured that silly draught down the drain!  I was pleased to see them on good terms again. Hopefully it wasn't just the calm before the storm.

Things are progressing nicely.  They are becoming more, and more comfortable with one another.  That is a joy to see unfold.Thank you for sharing~

Oh, that went well :) I'm with Hermione--the togetherness was sweet.  Shame on Severus for his Legilimency.  I guess they both have guilty secrets.  I wonder who will be forced to spill first...

Mmm hmmm.  That was lovely.  I will pateintly look forward to the next installment.Thank you for sharing~

Oh, very good!

Well, even though I don't review every chapter, I liked the story. I loved that he finally told her he loves her at their wedding, before he's supposed to formally for vows or anything. Cute story. :)

Minerva with her keen insight will certainly be the first to know when they get naked cough begin their relationship.

Its amusing as all hell how paranoid Severus is. His feelings of attraction for Granger cannot possibly be his  own therefore its a curse. Ha!

yeah, keep saying that, honey. You'll believe it one day. XDloooooooved the chapter!! very well written ^^

*Snort!* (Reviewer Sings): I'm not in love, so don't forget, it's just a silly phase I'm going through... Doofus! I liked his internal thought about Obliviating himself though!

Yes, yes he is a fool.

Oh what a SILLY boy he is.  I love the way this is going.  Hermione is completely confident and he's all wrong-footed and it makes me smile.

oh My!! Severus going for the straightforward option?! that's unusual...Nice chap, want more!!

Goodf or Hermione. It would appear her plan has worked. Perhaps now is the time to come clean about everything. Especially the charm. I'm so looking forward tos eeing what happens next.

Hummmmm.  This could go either way, couldn't it?  I wasn't really comfortable with Ginny's idea to send Hermione presents "from Harry," and now I'm afraid this will all blow up in Hermione's face.  However, I have enjoyed seeing Severus try to wrap his mind around Hermione's change in mood.  Now I can't wait to see what happens when Severus finds her... will he find her in her quarters?  Or will he find her somewhere else?  What will she tell him when he asks her about Harry?Thanks for another fun chapter!Beth

Yay for progress. I'm so glad that Hermione didn't have to fool herself at all.  Severus is finally being smart ;)

Good for Severus for thinking clearly enough to go and search her out for a conversation, rather than jump to too many conclusions and retract further out of anger.  I hope things go as planned.  I found myself wishing that Hermione had talked Ginny out of part two.  We'll see what happens ...
