I am really impressed at the breadth of scale in this story. How S & H can be such normal people, how you capture their mundane quirks and habits, and yet... not only do you have them holding their own amongst immortals but also becoming immortal (or at least immortalized) themselves through their very fulfilling work on the Hogwarts gates. Epic.

On the woad again, I just can't wait to get on the woad again...

Oh, this just gets better and better. Plus, I learned a new word.

Dear lord, this is hilarious. You are killing me. And now I have a Queen parody to sing in the shower.

Very cool.  A clever ending to a very clever piece.

Aww.

I love that the Hogwarts gates are a job for someone really old school.

Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! I bet I know who she picks! *bounces around on chair*

Oh my dear lord...this is going to be very, very funny.It's even funnier when you read the title again after reading the chapter.

This is one of the first stories I read from the Exchange, I loved it.

I think I just got it. Nectar...the wine that Smith gave them to celebrate with? Totally makes sense now!

This was wonderful.  Very witty, with twists and turns that i love.   Though i'm confused by the very very end,  I can't complain about this story at all.  Loved it.  Great job!

what an absolutely superb story!  you have such a talent for whimsy and heart touching power at the same time it just boggles my mind.  many many thanks and mucho mucho smoochies

"Buildings where pallid men with no dress sense got excited about microchips."  ROFL!!  I live in Silicon Valley and I can so relate to that sentence!  I am really enjoying this so far.  Poor Severus can't tell anyone he is really a hero.  I am sure that will change.

this was a very funny read, loved it. Wery well written.

Oh, no!  Poor Hermione. I have a feeling that she's wrong this time.  If either of them was involved in this, I think it was "Smith" and his wine.

I read this entire thing in one sitting. I enjoyed it thoroughly. Your descriptions painted the scenes perfectly in my mind with an economy of word and a mastery of the English language. I laughed out loud on many occasions. This is one of those stories I can just see set to film in hilarious tongue-in-cheek parody fashion.A delightful way to spend my morning. Thanks for sharing.

No reviews yet???? I'm surprised since this story is so very delightful, funny and smart...I love it!Plse tell me it's finished and I'll have much more to read on...HLH

In all it's twist and turns - perfect!

The thought of the Gods roving around in high-class Muggle automobiles just makes me chuckle!

Dear Merlin, I think we must have read the same Snape handbook the rest of the world neglected to pick up! All that angsty music. I keep telling everyone he loves Floyd! And Smiths? Can't you just imagine him humming Meat is Murder?

I personally see him as a walking Depeche Mode song. Maybe I Am You or Enjoy the Silence.

But that's just me.

I love this first chapter. It's what runs through one's head as they're contemplating what they're actually doing in life.  'Ah, I'm pretty, witty, intelligent.  Why doesn't the rest of the world take advantage and utilize it?' Sigh! Sometimes in the inanity of life, washing the dishes and scraping melted chocolate off of the kitchen table seems so far beneath we domestic goddesses!

He's worn the same belt for a year?  EEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeew.  *shudder*

Do you know, RG, you must be one of my very favorite writers.  Thanks for an excellent story.  I really, really enjoyed the puns and the crossover and the music and all the rest.

Jessica Lapanne! HAHAHAHAHA!
