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. ;)

Thanks. :)

you know what, sounds unromantic, but it just screamed to me: she should joine facebook. maybe she'll find Paul there... great things happen nowadays, thanks to social networks... just so, besides the story...wahh, I wouldn't have lasted five minutes in this room full of my pictures, my most intimate splayed open for everyone to see. just as she thought: everyone can see how turned on I was, bastar!!oh, I would have sunken into the next space between the floorboard, be it there or not.ok, I would never have sat model in the first place, right.This is so courageous. Wow.Wonderful is the idea of  the sketches he made of her just from his memory. isn't it a confession in itself.. *sigh*Them strolling around with entwined fingers. I can' believe it. He definitely WILL kill her, once he knows her true identity. waaahhh!!!I woudn't wonder if they apparated to the studio. so much lust is in the air... *lalala*great bit again! Thanks for sharing!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

"I woudn't wonder if they apparated to the studio"  Wouldn't that be a giveaway! :)

Response from salvamea (Reviewer)

yes, thats why! *hehe*being so absorbed with lust it would just be natural to do what one is used to do.and then, everything would be up. ouch.

Oh gosh!  What's going to happen next?!  Lovely and fun story.  I'm a bit anxious about what will happen when Severus learns that it's Hermione he's been painting this whole time.  Looking forward to the next chapters very much. 

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Thank you. :D

Mwahahaha that was brilliant - him reading the letter in class! Oh this is getting very interesting!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Hehe. Gotta torment poor Sev. :)

magicalpresence

Aw that last part made me go all tearful! Poor Severus.  I wonder what he'll be like if he finds out though...!!!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

You'll find out. :)

Jinxie

I'm glad to see her Mum supporting her on this, even though she is somewhat likening it to her own brief affair with her own teacher.Now, will he find out before, after or at the penultimate moment? I could very much see her screaming out Severus instead of Sidney. (oops!)Looking forward to seeing what happens next!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

LOL.  That would be an oopsie indeed. :)

Noooooo! Not again!Please post another by Saturday...it would be a lovely birthday present!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Um, not sure if I'll get it checked and betaed by then.  Probably early next week. :)

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Happy birthday for Saturday anyway!

 OOOO......that was very sensual....are we in for some erotic prose in the next installment....or some hot sexy smut!?   very good fic.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Hmm, I was thinking they might run off to a nice, dry lecture about art history in order to cool their ardour, then have a sensible discussion about the meaning of life over cocoa.No?Oh, okay then. :D

Damn you with your evil cliffies! I love how you blend the sexual tension with the tenderness and awareness they have of each other and with the sensual descriptions of the art. This story has become one of my favorites!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

You love the cliffies.  Go on, admit it! :D

Oh to be the fly on the wall when she reveals herself! I can icture the scene when he wakes up with a mouthful of unrully chestnut hair and stare at brown eyes...

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

That'd be a rude awakening all right! :)

gattina

Holy cow!!Even though I receive the story alert so I know it's still in progress, every time I see that the last chapter is all there is I am disappointed...Please feed my delusions of completeness! I love this story and how their romance is unfolding. Mostly I love how an intelligent man, who had to rely on his ability to discover the truth for all his life, now is stumped by a "silly little girl"...Blind is he who doesn't want to see...

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Indeed! :)

This chapter ended up making more questions than it answered. And, it's dragging out the inevitable. But (and I say this with caution), why do I have a feeling Sidney's going to say something shocking first?

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Because you know he's really Snape? ;)

Response from Severus49 (Reviewer)

LOL! Oh yeah well, that goes without saying!

Merlina Thalia

No!!!! I really hope there is more coming soon! I keep thinking each time I should wait until there are at least two more chapters because you are kiling me lol. So good!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

More is in the hatchery, so to speak. :)

Each chapter is more of a tease for the next one.  I hope he doesn't freak to much when he learns who she is.  Excellent chapter.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Thanks! :D

Are you the Sunny thats writing Harry and his new Family?

Well, everything is going smashingly.  I enjoyed Mum's tale of love lost.  And I liked that she was happy with the eventual outcome.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Thanks, deb! :)

Sunny Marie thirty-three!  You get over here right now and apologize to your readers for being such a ridiculous tease.  And I'd like that apology in the form of the next chapter, missy.  No dawdling.I love the close relationship that Hermione and her mother have, despite the fact that she doesn't live at home.  What a coincidence that her mother had a similar situation in her youth.  No wonder she is so understanding.Poor Sidney didn't stand a chance from the minute Grace walked into that studio.  Does he know how much trouble he is in where she is concerned, even if there wasn't the "I'm a witch and I'm also your student.  Sorry!" issue to contend with?You descriptions of the paintings are fantastic.  I can't believe that someone with some talent (ie- not me) hasn't jumped up and made those paintings a reality.  It would make you nervous to go to a place where you were on display naked.  I guess, I mean, not like I'm speaking from experience :)  Still, they both handle themselves (no pun intended) as well as can be expected.I will admit that once again, I have no idea what will happen, or even what I think should happen.  If they are intimate, and then he finds out who she is, he will be embarrassed, and furious, and ... well, noone wants to find out, really.  On the other hand, if she tells him first, he will likely forget all about Grace, and push her away.  Still, for some reason, my money is on him finding out without her telling him.  I sort of want to see it all come out when Blaise puts the moves on her, and Severus springs into action to save his fair maiden and nearly hexes the boy into next year.  At any rate, if she doesn't plan to tell him, she had better watch her lip biting at school.I'm sorry I yelled at you earlier.  It's the new chapter withdrawl setting in already.  So please help a poor girl out.  I don't think there is any ethical dilemma, when the addiction you are feeding is on paper.  Er, screen.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

*iz trembling at the scary

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

*   I like your ideas, but I'm not telling if they're correct! :P   I sent quaffie part of the next chapter for her opinion.  Will discuss over afternoon tea and get back to you.  :D

Response from HBAR (Reviewer)

Thanks for the info.  Quaffie seems like the weaker link, so maybe I can wrestle it out of her *works on evil plan*

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

I'm gonna tell! :P

Holy crap Batman... I mean, Holy revelations and tease Sunny33!I so want to see those pictures...May I please have the discarded program that Severus was using as a shield? Pretty please?

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

LOL.  Hmm, wonder if I could make a program up?  :)
