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. ;)

And the penny drops.....finally :) was beginning to doubt Severus' powers of observation. Love the Draco/Nev, Hermione/Blaise interaction as well. Please, please update soon xxxx

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Snape finally gets it, and naturally he gets it through applying his artistic talents to the problem (happy sigh).

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

I thought that would be an appropriate way for him to find out.  It didn't occur to the silly man to do it earlier. :)

Love love love this story. Have been tempted to leave a review before now, even though I usually prefer to wait until the end to review. But this chapter! So wonderful! Balanced so well in anticipation and dialogue and action. But the cliffhanger ending! Please post the next one soon!

*swoon*

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Thank you for stopping to review.  I appreciate the feedback. :D

Oh sweet wow! Finally finally finally finally!!! And yet so much remains unanswered, especially Snape's reaction beyond his "fuck". I hope he's not (very) mad at her and they can have some naked time together to make up for all this tension :-)Don't keep us waiting long, Sunny, pleaseeeeeeeee. Fantastic chapter, if I didn't say so before.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Thank you! :)

Finally, took him long enough. :) Since it's the cliffy we've all been waiting for, I'm THIS much more curious for what's up next. So, keep up the good work?

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Sure will. Thanks for the review. :)

Finally! His realisation was extremely satisfactory, especially thanks to the built-up towards it. I love that Severus discovered Hermione from a drawing. It links the premise of the story beautifully.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Thank you.  That was the idea. :)

Ah sweet suspense.  He knows, now what will he do with that knowledge?  Hmm.  Very enjoyable chapter, loved the jealousy from Neville, enjoyed the kisss.  Liked seeing the dots connect, after Blaise had a chat.  Really good.And as I said last chapter Go Wallabies.  Tomorrow will tell.  Whoever wins tomorrow should win the final.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

LOL.  I was born in Australia and live in NZ.  Don't care either way! :)

Response from hollyhopdrive (Reviewer)

I used to live with a KIwi, so will be going for the Wallabies.  However NZ is one of the most beautiful countries on this Earth.  I also have some amazing Kiwi friends who unfortunatley have moved back to Hamilton, the NZ not the Victorian versin.I really do enjoy this story and your writing skills are brilliant.

Eeps!  She REALLY should've told him already...how is this going to play out?  On pins and needles here!  Once again a lovely and wonderfully written chapter -- keep up the fantastic work!!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Thank you! :)

Luna! I thought Ginny had finally caught her out. Oh well. At least they managed to get Draco and Neville on the same page. And poor Blaise - my heart goes out to him, even if he admits to digging his own hole. However, he did give Snape the hint he needed to finally make the connection between Hermione and Grace. Now, I'm going to indulge in some shameless begging - please, please update soon. I've been such a faithful reader and I'm dying to see how Severus handles this epiphany. Please!!!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

I'll be working on it over the next few days.  Should be up in a week. :)aeron's response: *hugs you*

Spinning Neville into his arms, he placed one hand on each of the other wizard's shoulders and closed the distance between their lips.Go Draco!!!“I could never betray a lady’s confidence, sir.  However, I suggest it might be in your best interest to pay a little more attention to Miss Granger.”Go Blaise!!!"Think that did the trick?" "I don't know.  We'd better carry on in case they come back,"Go Neville!!!But instead of the long, straight, dark locks he was accustomed to drawing, his quill created a mass of curls reaching below her shoulders. Go Snape ... finally!!!Incidentally, it is not going to go over very well when I can't drag myself out of bed tomorrow, and my only excuse for being late to work is Limited Exposure.  Go ahead and feel bad.  You're the enabler to my addict :)

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Go

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Updating as fast as I can, sweetie! :)

Who

Aaaarrggghhhhh!!!!!!!!NOT another cliffie! You evil evil writer person!But, of course, that is why we love you so much, and why we come back week after week for more of your amazing story. I am already looking forward to the next chapter. And once again, Severus is poised to cause a scene in the classroom. He really picks his times and places, doesn't he?

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

He sure does! :)

TeddyRadiator

And....breathe Teddy! I think the boy might have figured it out! As always, I get a thrill to see that this story has been updated. A great read, and one that you just can't wait to see what happens next.The thing I love about this story is that it's rich without bogging down in detail, and romantic and humourous as well - it's got exactly what it needs without over egging the pudding. I just love it. Thanks, Sunny!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Thanks, Teddy.  I love that you appreciate the less is more philosophy. :)

freeluciusnow21

I thank you for having Severus figure it out this chapter and not leave me hanging on for my life wondering when it would happen. The story is so beautiful so far, and the pacing (much to my dismay) is perfect in its creeping slowly towards the inevitability. I cannot wait to read what happens next. Bravo!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Thank you! :)

OMG - Ginny, too! - more and more are finding out - something's going to explode - soon!!! Love the erotic scene of Sev & the letter - the Fat Lady and the other portraits - HA! Wonderful! I was VERY suspicious of Zabini and now, I'm feeling a twinge of sadness for the guy - hmm... he sincerely is attracted to Hermione and not just another notch on his Slytherin belt? Love the possibility of Draco & Neville together! Still worried Blaise is maybe not as understanding as he seems to be... Slytherin jealousy -the green eyed monster may get the best of him- he was quite effected by her kiss... Great, juicy chapter!!! As always!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Ginny doesn'y know it's Snape though, Just that Herms has a man. :)

nagandsev

Loved the Blaise and Hermione scene, and also love hermione stepping in and 'saving' Draco from Parkinson's threat - Awww... tho lone figure is going to believe she's with Draco and his other top Slytherin! Super- hehe!!! Great chapter!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

You'll see. ;)

nagandsev

Wonderful, detailed, yummy chapter! Hmm... I don't know - I want to scream to Hermione 'Don't trust Zabini!' Reading on!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

LOL.  :)
