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. ;)

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Ermm... yes. ;)
OOhhh..can't wait for the fall out from that discovery. Fantstic story thanks.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks. :)
...ooops....CRINGESThis one's gonna hurt...
Response from cmwinters (Reviewer)
And also: Now would be a very damned good time for her to DISAPPARATE AND LEAVE HER CLOTHING WHERE IT IS, kthx.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
LOL. Wonder if naked Disapparation is chilly? ;)
I'll just totally agree with debjunks comments.BUTIts been hours now not minutes.......I'm trapped in a suspended state of anticipation aaaaahhhh!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
LOL. I have to go to work, you know! :P
Uh oh! I didn't expect THAT denouement. Well, to be fair, Snape wanted to tell her, too. They're both to blame. Oh, please don't be too hard on them (so to speak...)!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
LOL I think at least one of them likes it hard! ;)
Cat, cream, purring... Then, shoved off the bed. :)Brilliantly done! At least he's taken some of the edge off, though I suspect after her oopsie he's going to be suffering some serious blue balls, especially once they get back to Hogwarts and the classroom. I could so see Blaise playing it up with Hermione as he'll notice straight away that the Professor is watching and holding back...Bring on the Finite Incatem!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
LOL. Life is going to be fraught, that's all I'm saying. :)
Response from Jinxie (Reviewer)
And that's all we can ask for! ;)
Oh oh! problems on the way! Please, pretty please don't kick Hermione out of his room until she can explane to him and... well, I don't know... be merciful. Let him catatonic or something! More please!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
More is on the way. :)
I hate that I am coming to the end of the posted chapters! ACK! I wonder if Hermione will be recognized as the model at the exhibit. that could be awkward.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
True that. :)
For a minute there I was thinking a daliance with Blaise would be just the thing to pass the time. But after the exchange of those letters I think going directly to Snape is the best idea. Go. Write quickly please.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
I think Blaise may have had a chance, but, alas, he's too late. :)
Bad, bad cliffie. I'm tempted not to review anymore until you finish posting, but that would be rude, wouldn't it?
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Aww, don't desert me! :)
Response from snapify52 (Reviewer)
What? No new chappie yet? It's been sooooo longggg.......
OMG the time to make such a slip up! Hopefully he didn't notice
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
:D
Playing catch-up with my reviews now, but I wanted to start with a question: Isn't Hermione a Libra? Bu, on to the actual review. So much to love, here! From Hermione's musings on Neville in a faint (!) to her slow realisation that Snape is a person, I feel almost as if I learned more about who she truly is in this chapter than in any of the preceding ones. And I like what I've learned. And Snape. Ah, Severus, there's a reason she seems familiar, man! But then, we tend to see what we want to see -- or, rather, not to see beyond what we expect to see -- don't we? Although I'd think a man of Snape's experience wouldn't fall into that trap (he'd have made a particularly ineffective spy, otherwise), so I can only surmise he's gone a bit soft since Voldie's demise. Good for you, Severus! It's time and past you learned to relax a bit. Very nicely done.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Libra is Sep 23-Oct 22. Hermione's birthday is Sep 19th, so close, but no cigar! :)I like to think Snape isn't soft, just that Hermione is out of context. As you said, we see what we want (or expect) to see. When he was a spy he was expecting treachery everywhere, so he was alert for it. Now he thinks he's in the boring old Muggle world, dealing with an ordinary Muggle... Actually, I think in canon he doesn't really have much to do with her except as Harry's sidekick. She seems to feature more in interactions with him as a younger child, all bushy haired and buck-toothed. And he hasn't seen her for at least a year. So that's his excuse LOL. And mine. :D
Response from TeaOli (Reviewer)
Damn! I've gone ages thinking her birthday was the 29th! (Oops! That's a good friend's birthday.) Guess it's time to actually start looking up the facts I thought I "knew"! I wonder what else I've got wrong? I also don't recall them interacting much in canon. (Part of me is convinced his "I see no difference" was nothing by blunt truth.) However, as for Snape figuring Hermione/Grace out, I was only speculating on the whole "something about her is familiar" thing and why he might not pursue the thought.
But, honestly? The "see what you want or expect to see" was excuse enough for me!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
I only knew the 19th was Virgo 'cos my sister's is on the 18th. :D
ZOMG the shit is really going to hit the fan now!!! What a cliffy! Sunny you are EVIL!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
And proud of it! :)

Grrrrrrrr
oh nonononono!!!not severusss!!argh. I feared so much for this to come.I was glad, she managed to call him Sidney in the morning.The tatoo again.Still don'T know, what it is. A gryffindor lion?Anything Hogwardish?Well, they had their night, that was a wonderful lemon you squeezed for us! Thank yo uso much.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Glad you enjoyed it. :)
OH yes, Severuss?? OMG!! I wasn't expecting that. Nearly jumped out of my seat. Think you are introuble Ms. Granger.Amazing fic. Really good writing.xo
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thank you! :)
I loved this chapter, not only because of what happens (well...), but because of the way you wrote it, interspersing thoughts from both POVs with the narrator's voice and leaving much, actually, to the readers' imagination. Probably one of the best chapter so far. Thank you.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks. I prefer to leave most of it to the imagination. Once the chat group did a challenge where we wrote a sex scene without using any nouns. That was fun! :)
Oh, I knew it! I was waiting for the whole chapter for her to do that! But... You are an evil tease, you know that? huh? Really, leaving it there? Honestly, that's the most cruel thing an author has ever, ever done! (So, I like to exaggerate, sue me.) Now... when is the update? Five minutes? I can't live much longer than that.Moving on to the actual chapter, I loved the way you wrote this, all with their thoughts. Simply perfect. Until THAT part at the end.
Response from debjunk (Reviewer)
It's been more than five minutes... I'm still waiting.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Patience is a virtue, my sweet. xx
W O W !
That for sure will get him up to speed, woun'it? Goodness gracious woman, he may have a heart attack trying to get to his wand fast enough after such "exertions."Lovely chapter, lemons delivered and I am drinking lemonade!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
LOL. Don't drink it all at once! :)
Hermione is very fortunate to have such an open relationship with her mother. I am glad they were able to be honest with each other.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
She needs a little support right now. :)
Lol! You are an evil woman to leave it hanging there ;) good call.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks. :)
Oh dear! Beautiful chapter. Lovely cliffhanger ending. Yikes. Can't wait for the next chapter, I don't think it's going to end very well for Hermione.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
LOL. Maybe, maybe not. :)
oooh shit. Can't wait to see that fight...Pleeease don't take too long! awesome chap ^^
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks. :)
Oh lord...so good, but this cliffie you've left us with is killing me. Can't wait for more!
