Hello all,  I am a 53 year old from NZ.  Although SSHG is how I started and still my main pairing, I'll give pretty much any pairing a try, whether it be reading or writing.  Sev and Herms need a bit of variety at times. ;)

Enjoyed getting another chapter notice  in my in-box.  That was an interesting birthday gift.  The fats in the fire now.  McGonagalls onto them.  I hope she will see reason when she finds out Hermione was glamored when they met and Severus didn't know who she was until recently.

Happy birthday! :)

I believe this calls for stand alone story with a cut scene from Limited Exposure.  Maybe something along the lines of Blaise Zabini and the Item from Page Twenty-Two?  Just a thought ...What a good sport Severus is to go along with Hermione's wishes.  It was fine at breakfast and in the hall afterwards, but I was cringing when he was a drippy mess, and Minvera wouldn't let him go to his room first.  At least she left the room so he could clean up.  And then his heartfelt, albeit erratic, confession made me feel bad for him.  He needs a friend to talk to, but the person he feels probably most comfortable talking to is the one who would have a fit if she knew his secret.But, of course, she does know.  And rather than be nervous about it, I am looking forward to the point where (hopefully) she tries to give them hell about being together, Severus feels guilty and horrified that she knows, then Hermione swoops in and reminds Minerva about the trysts of her youth.  All with Severus mouth gaping and speechless.  Yeah, I'm going to need the next chapter like, um, now.  Please. *looks at you with puppy dog eyes.  The really effective kind*

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

I'm subcontracting you to do the Blaise/page 22 story.  So there. :P

Response from HBAR (Reviewer)

I'm already subcontracted to Keppiehed as a result of her latest fic (not sure how that happened), and I am scrounging to find time to complete my story to poke her with, so I guess the ball is back in your court. :)  Plus, what makes you think I would have any idea what to do with any items from that catalog?  *whistles innocently*

Response from MsTree (Reviewer)

It's funny, but after I left this review I went back and read the other nineteen reviews. I see quite a few readers had the same reaction. You must be doing something right. ^_^

I want to say, "Yay, Minerva!" but I've been mislead by you before.Glad to see that things are (hopefully) moving forward for our two.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

I've had that last scene in my head for ages, but I needed to work up to it! :)

Response from TeaOli (Reviewer)

Does that mean, for once, the cigar is actually a cigar?

My lips are sealed.  :X

Yeh well... I'm really sorry to say that, but i completely agree with LivingTheDream...I'm feeling sorry about not reviewing when it's very good, (i should have done that with your story) and only taking action now that things start to fall apart.I must be honest with you: i used to totally be mad about this story, absolutely mad, i craved every chapter. But now, it seems like you don't know what to write anymore. There is no more passion about this story. The plot was soooo creative, you did a really good job, but now every time i'm done with reading a new chapter, i'm like "oh, ok.. well.. ok. nothing happens, but ok." it's just all about sex, and wanting, and waiting, and at the end, it is not interesting and thrilling anymore...

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Sorry you feel that way. (LtD is actually my good friend who teases with her reviews.)I have had a plan all along, which I have pretty much stuck to, but the story needed to get to this point first for the confrontation with Minerva and the subsequent fallout. However, I thank you for taking the time to comment.  Everyone's opinion is valuable, and I shall ponder on yours as well.  :) 

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

I would be interested on your thoughts on where you would have taken the story if you were writing it.

Response from ulis (Reviewer)

Thank you for taking the time to answer :)Indeed my review wasn't aimed to hurt you, but just to let you know that i love this story so much that it pained me to see it going this way. Thanks for conforting me on the future of the story, and know that i will of course read your future chapters with pleasure. Now, i just have to wait patiently

I want them to meet at McDonalds.  Duh.

You left it there?! Cruelty to readers, sigh.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Oops.  Did I forget to say what happened next? ;)

Response from sweetlysevere (Reviewer)

Hmmph ;-)

Response from sweetlysevere (Reviewer)

And then with the next chapter...oh such cruelty. Poor Hermione...I imagine Minerva would spit up a hairball if she knew Her precious little Hermione had posed nude.

Hermione is so wrong yet so right.  Good job on the birthday gift ( job being more ways than one).  Can't wait to see how McGonagall handles (no pun intended) Severus.

Thanks. :)

OMG, I feel like I haven't read this in an age and then you go and present us with a fantastic chapter and a cliffhanger.  Love this story and after another day from hell at work it was a welcome ping in my inbox to let me know it had been updated.Hope all is well with you and look forward to finding out what Minerva has to say and how chastened Severus will be during the confrontation...

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Glad you enjoyed it. :)

If it made Zabini blush, page 22 could be some sort of vibrating cock-ring, or something like that. I had the feeling Minerva would figure it out. But hopefully she read the section in the Charter herself, before she goes ballistic. It seems she's more shocked right now than anything, since she thought he was involved with a Muggle; Hermione did pose as one.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

It's not that she has any room to talk, is it? But she doesn't know Hermione knows that. :)

And they thought they were so clever. I think they forgot who Minerva Mc Gonagall is. *wide grin* 'Im sure this next meeting will be very intereting, especially if Severus is still wearing his present.

Thanks. :)
