Twentysomething lover of Harry Potter fic. I have served as a beta (btw, i am P.I. accredited) for many authors, and welcome the opportunity to do more. I also serve as co-moderator of the LJ community ptterpr0nprmpts along with the fantabulous tonksinger.
I've been around the fandom for a long time... probably since 2003. I've spent most of it lurking, but published some stories under an old pseudonym. Upon entering the fandom, I immediately became a fan of the Snape/Granger pairing. I prefer Hermione to be a bit older, but have been known to deviate from that preference. Other ships that I prefer include Draco/Ginny, Draco/Harry, Snape/Lupin, and Snape/McGonagall. I am open to most ships and recommendations, as ultimately it is this universe that I love.
Reviews for Overcoming Parentage
Muahahaha! That's very cozy, indeed! Being his roomie's girlfriend would be excellent revenge on Draco. Well played, Hermione.

*snrk.
Poor Hermione. She's surrounded. Resistence is futile, o bushy one. Cross to the dark side.
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
yes, b/c the dark side has ice cream ;)
How rude! She didn't even stay to eat. Lol. I hope Severus hasn't effed things up beyond fixing.
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
it wasn't worth it--the special is gross....
The perfume is cloying, eh? I wonder who will win this battle of wills...
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
3 guesses ;)
So much angst abounds these days, it is quite refreshing to read some intelligent fluffy romance. I certainly had to read the beginning twice. I knew that there was no way that Hermione was with another man and there would be a valid explanation, but I never thought it to be Percy walking in. How will she continue to work with him? I suspect she will be too happy to care.I would never guess this to be your first multi-chapter fic. It was very well done. “Well, I figured if you were willing to cut your hair and dress in those sexy denims and t-shirt for Granger, it was clearly my responsibility to let that play out…”HaHaHa! I love your Draco.Great ending to such a fun story! I look forward to the next multi-chapter fic from you.

awww! thanks,
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
! the only reason the story worked was b/c of clairvoyant. love her so much!
That is a great prompt, and this is a great start.I can just see Draco loving Fight Club.
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
thank you!
That's Draco, quick and to the point.At least he's not in Azkaban, right?
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
that's what i was thinking...
You know that is so Percy -- so anal and so in his head. Great job. I really enjoyed your story.
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
thank you so much!
Aw, poor Percy! He needs a girl, too...but that was awfully funny! *snerk* So this is the end? Glad everyone (well, everyone except Percy) got a happy ending, and Draco smirks his way into a bright future! Thanks for sharing this with all of us!
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
yeah, i have issues not writing him as smirking!draco... oh well. yeah, it's the end. i had fun writing it. glad you enjoyed it!!
Whee! Great chapter, from the date to the kiss to the Superman references to George's little missive at the end of it all! "Flying fuck" indeed! I can't even give a coherent review, I just liked everything! Well, I will say that I'm glad that Hermione was able to make her apology to Severus and clear the air on her side of things...she probably wouldn't have been able to enjoy herself for the rest of the date if she hadn't gotten that off her chest, and then where would our couple be?Off to read the next chapter!
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
what a great review!! thank you so much :)
I KNEW it was Percy! The beginning was sooo funny. As a whole, this story was really enjoyable, especially with regards to Draco.
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
thank you so much!
That was so cute! Great story!
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
thank you!!
Nicely done! As you intended, I was quite a bit confused when Hermione was on top of another man. After seeing that it was Percy that walked in, I went back and re-read the beginning. Very clever! Thanks for brightening my evening with the conclusion to this story!
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
yay!!! so glad you liked it :)
That was fun. Hee, Percy.
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
LOL thanks, hon.
Soooo awesome! Good Drco, good boy! Thank you for the nail bitting Percy part.
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
:). yeah, i love the old switcheroo. couldn't help myself! thanks for the review!
Aww. The beginings of attraction. So sweet. A cute story with great humor. Hermione, Severus, and Draco's chracters are engaging and have enough of their canon personalities to be believable and yet changed with the passing time. Looking forward to the next chapter. Thank you for sharing this entertaining story.
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
thank you so much for the review!!
Love Hermione's insights and especially her uncontrollable curiosity getting the better of her and using Harry's cloak to do a little eavesdropping of her own! Nice to see that she likes what she's discovering about Severus. And giving some credit to (poor) Draco... love your romantic teasing and speculations with the trio - looking forward to more!
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
oh poor draco--i do love messing with him far too much :). i thought giving y'all some hermione time might be nice. glad you enjoyed it!! :)
Very nice snapshots of Hermione`s thoughts. While perhaps slightly high-handed and self-righteous, I really don`t blame Hermione for her tunnel-vision when it came to some WW customs and systems. She was never really given the chance to widen her horizons given the political divisions within the WW, and while JKR made the elf-rights issue somewhat of an embarassment for Hermione - her approach was misguided - it didn`t make the treatment of wizards towards other sentient magical beings fair; discrimination, ill-treatment and prejudices are rampant in WW. Hermione was right, but she should have done better research into the elves`s circumstances, and adopted a different approach than what she did.I am glad that she got the opportunity (via Draco`s case) to learn and grow. Thank you.
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
you're welcome! hermione wouldn't be our know-it-all without a little swottiness. but we do need to allow her to grow :).
Liked this chapter, got a bit more insite into Hermione's thinking. Even if she still acts all surperior and thinks she is better then everyone else. They all still have a lot to learn about each other thats probably why Percy gave her the assignemnt maybe but then again Percy is a bit of a pompus jerk lol. The last entry she made was nice, I mean if Draco hadn't come rushing in maybe Severus would have kissed her. Look forward to another update. :) Happy Holidays!
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
i think by the end of this chapter she's really starting to learn :). i've got a few more bits of this story coming down the pike. can't wait to post them for y'all! :). have a good holiday.
This story is delightful. I love it so far. Snape with a crush on Hermione! Perfect.
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
i'm so glad you're enjoying it! there are other chapters in the queue, and I'm currently working on the last chapter :):)
This slightly wacky story is very entertaining and fun! Thank you very much, and looking forward to more.
Response from astopperindeath (Author of Overcoming Parentage)
