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. ;)
Reviews for Limited Exposure
Last night I logged into PP to log into chat.. and spotted this at the top of the queue... It has been months since I have read any HP fic.... but this sucked me in and I kept saying 'one more chapter and then I'll go to chat...'.. well, I never made it to chat... and now I am hooked, damn you, darling Penny.... write faster!!! I love the master spy being just a tad clueless..Huggs and a sharp prod to your rear to goad your writing muse...Piper

Ouch! Not so hard, missy! Love you too. xx
YES!!!!!!!!It took him bloody long enough. Thank you Blaise for being an proper catalyst.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks! :)
aurgh, I hate reading stories that are not complete! I started reading your story this afternoon and have done nothing but gone on to the next chapter and now that is it. I have to wait, I can't stand it. I can't wait to find out how you are going to let them play this out. Please don't keep me waiting, update soon.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
LOL. Sorry! I'm writing it as fast as I can. :)
I adore your Luna. So... if one needs a quick buzz in Hogsmeade, one looks for the "special" sugar quills? And hooray! for Neville and Draco finally manning up to the truth. I just love reading your stuff, Sunny - it's all bursting with life and energy. If, however, the next chapter opens with something along the lines of 'He was out of ink.' and the foolish man continues to ignore the obvious, I may crawl into my computer and give Severus a swift kick in the shins myself! I'm hoping that's not the case... Hoping he's finally caught on. (And how you keep up your posting schedule with LDWS going on is beyond me... I think you must be superhuman.)
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks, dear. And I promise, I won't do that to you. :D
Response from ofankoma (Reviewer)
Woo-hoo! (Not that I'd actually mind too much if you extended the torturous wait... Half the fun is in the expectation that you'll pull the rug from under us again and the speculation as to how you'll do it.)
This story is GREAT! I can't wait to see what happens next. EEEE! :D
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thank you! :D
You'd better hurry up with that next chapter, missy.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
*trembles* Yes, m'am! :)
Response from missblue (Reviewer)
*taps small but powerful foot*I'm waaaaaaaiting...
Omg. Just when the story gets good. Are you still writing it? Is it done? Really enjOyed.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Still writing it and posting a new chapter about once a week. Thanks for stopping by to review. :)
Response from Blondeamb01 (Reviewer)
Yay! I feared you stopped writing it!! What days do you post? Is there a way to receive an alert as to when a new chapter is posted? I really have enjoyed it. Was a little disappointed when I saw it wasn't finished!! Haha. Keep it up!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
I don't keep to a specific day. If it's been a quiet week I may post after 6 days, but if I've been busy at work etc it may be 8 or 9, but I aim for apporx a week. I'm not entirely sure how to get alerts for favourite stories. Maybe if you click on add favourite story it alerts you when the next chapter is posted.
At least he knows, thanks to Blaise's little hint. Wonder if he'll go after her or wait for her to come to him? We shall see.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
You will. :D
terrible. it's clear you don't know where you're going in this story. started out as a story about two adults, now it's just a crap high school dramaz.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Oh dear, you didn't like this story back in Chapter Fourteen, and yet here you are, still reading it. Thanks for persevering. I'm sorry it is not to your personal taste, but unfortunately not all stories fall within every reader's desired parameters of plot and characterisation. Best wishes in your search for a more linear plot. There are other categories which may be more suitable. :)
oh you cruel person.It was NOT Neville or anybody. haha."you wanted ME" and practising how to be sacry, wonderful, just wonderful.NO one would have thought of LUNA!!Clever trick. And the "get together two lovers at Hogsmeade WE", isn't it romantic. That's what friends are for. I like it. Finally they faced the facts."Bloddy hell, even Longbottom is getting more than I am" well well, teheee!Why is this man always where he isn't supposed to be. Overhearhing Hermiones and Blaises conversation. ohhh.Blaise is giving suuuuch a big hint!! *sucksinbreath*And all that after he saw the pictures. courageous, curious Slytherin. He would make a wonderful Gryffindore. Interesting, that he can see their love streaming glowing out of the pictures. You described it so nicely.Likewise are the two exchanged letters.They are the perfect answer to one of my previous reviews, where I asked, what bound them together, what is their basis.Now you spelled it out in not to many words,but poeticly, simply to touch by just stretching so much as an arm.It was so close. Yes, they do have more to give and take than just flesh and juices. You convinced me.And then he is drawing a sketch of her face, remembering the hints and clues he has gotten, and pling! he finally got it. Right before his eyes is the love of his life. Like a wet towel in the face, or like heaven on earth.
Everything at its time, I shall think.I am soo curious what you will present us with next . (means: QUICK!!!)Thank you so much for sharing!!!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
A wet towel in the face. ROFL
Response from salvamea (Reviewer)
If I were him, I would grab all her letters and read them anew with the fresh knowledge and finally a real person to imagine behind them.And then go to her and rob on his knees sobbing all his lovestruck eyes out.Or grab Blaise by the neck and make him his own assistant.hm. wonder what will happen.
I'm stunned by the previous review and hope it is just a silly joke by someone who is kidding. This is a well written story that is flowing beautifully. Thanks for sharing your writing and your talent with those of us who read here and don't write because we just don't have your talent or imagination! I love this story for its totally unique take on SS/HG and fun expositions of many other characters. Go Sunny!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thank you, dear. You know the saying: You can please all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time etc. :D
Response from TimeWaster (Reviewer)
I'm impressed by the gentle response you gave to her. What I can't figure out is why someone would leave a nasty review instead of leaving to find something else to read. Oh well. Glad you see it for what it is!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks. I can't see the point is wasting energy getting in a tizz over it. The bulk of the review speak for themselves. :D
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
LOL typo city!
*zingdashbang*just fainted and crashed on the floor.ouchThe woman is unveiled. Finally. by his own hand. so to speak
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Took him long enough. eh? ;)
Response from salvamea (Reviewer)
Thankfully it did!just imagine he would have found out in chapter 3!all the wonderful chapters would never have been written and adored!! The loss! nono, I am glad that he is as daft as he is. or was.
Uh oh! :D I'm loving this so much! I'm so happy that Draco and Neville finally got together. I cannot wait for more.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks! :)
I'm really loving this story. I can't wait to see the fallout now that Severus has finally put all the pieces together.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks. :)
I'm really enjoying the story, and just wanted to leave a note to encourage you to PLEASE keep posting!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
I will! Thanks for stopping by to review!:)
Waaaaaaaahhhh!!! He FINALLY got it!! Oh hell, in the middle of potions class. Ohhhhh this is going to be veeeery baaaadd. Poor Blaise!! I felt so sorry for him. I do hope he'll be okay. What a wonderful chapter - I'm bouncing in my seat with excitement for the next!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
His timing is appalling, isn't it?
Well, it's about time! I was going to second Severus closing of his letter with Make it soon, but I think the cat's finally out of the bag. Now, his reaction was pretty expected. But... there's so little of it, so I don't even know what to expect. I think I know what will happen, then I hope something will happen. But what will happen is beyond me. Now I've gone and confused myself. Will just have to wait for next chapter. You're posting that now, right?
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Very soon! :)
I love this story, and each cliffhanger is worse than the last! Can't wait to read on!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thank you! :)
GAHHHHHHHH!!!!!! You are so cruel! But finally, wow. Great, great chapter. The scene with Neville and Malfoy was super hot and sweet. Loads of funny Snape moments thrown in. Eagerly awaiting the next chapter to see what happens! Is she gonna bolt? AHHHH!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
LOL Love your enthusiasm! :)
Oh you naughty, naughty author. First you leave us with an evil cliffie last time and we're hatching all these plots and it's just Luna getting back to H and then, THEN came the line: "As gracefully as he could, considering his rather overfull stomach, he stalked from the Great Hall." YOU MADE ME VISUALIZE SEVERUS WADDLING!!! Bad, bad author. No Droobleberry Pie for you. Ok well, back to read the rest of the chapter. Great story by the way....
Response from Phyllidia (Reviewer)
Finished the chapter. I have two words for you and they aren't "Merry Christmas". They're "love you" yeah, that's it. Because if you know we love you and your story so much you will get the next chapter to us quickly to put us out of our misery. Right???
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
I respond well to sucking up! xx Love you too! :)
ohoho finally!!!! Now what, Snape?this is an amazing story you cooked up here, Sunny, I can't wait to see how it turns out.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks! :)
Finally! For a smart guy, he sure took a long time to get there! Denial I guess...
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
He's good at that! :)
Woho! what a chapter, dear! I love your sence of humor, and cry with the sadness you tinge this story. Love your depiction of Blaise, and Luna is refreshing. Dont stop writing!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
I won't!
