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. ;)

Nekkid Snape is always a good thing. ;)

So does the morning after pill work on witches? And what can he learn from a strand of hair? polyjuice, obviously, but what else. Great chapter.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

She's Muggle-born. It'll work. He'll have an epiphany soon. ;)

Owlbait

Oh dear. I didn't think Hermione would make it out of there without a confrontation. She surely knows she can't have bought herself that much time. She's may be a smart and competent witch, but Sev is also and also a sneaky bastard and highly motivated.    Giggles that he keeps checking the wrong year - he's not remembering when she said she was an 'adult student'.That hair - oh deary my. I'm sure there's endless ways he can use it, but i'd dearly love to see him make polyjuice with it and turn into Granger for an hour.   Still looking forward to the explosion, being confident as I am that his prick heart will manage to overcome his pride in the end.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

The daft git is still convinced none of his students would touch him with a barge pole, so he's missing the obvious! ;)

salvamea

a really really wonderful chapter!She made her escape in THAT moment! Circe! a unique reaction. and that spell to mess with the adress. seemed to have worked, but he wasn't lazy or stupid either. He is already through the students - record.Did he skip Hermione or wasn't she among those he considered questionable.?She found a house - elfe that was willing to help her, with the butterbeer reward. funny.her list, her often present desire to make a list and work it through. good, that her mother helpes her again. Never talk to strangers  (dark and greasy haired with a mellifluent voice are the worst brrr.). Just as mama told us... Zabini is watching again. This is becoming dangerous.Ha, Snape wants to warn Zabini not to burn his fingers on Hermine which HE has already done. too funny.ouch, the HAIR!!!!what does her real hair do on his cloak? Does the charm wear off, when the hair falls? interesting. Now he has one more clue. He does remember hands, shapes of bodies, cleverness, age, weigh, oh my. He will find her... well, we want him to. but this is getting into a crime ficiton.Thank you so much for the update!!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Your review made me laugh, especially with the crime fiction comment!  He hasn't looked at Hermione's year because he's totally convinced himself any current students wouldn't go near him.  I'm working on the theory that the Glamour disspates once the hair falls, thus reverting it to its natural state. :)

Response from salvamea (Reviewer)

I make her laugh, just you hear(which is always fine). BUT. I'd much rather want  to make you write, dearest of all sunnys!!*pushesyoutothedeskpressesyouonthechairputstheframedSnapeportraitinplacesharpensthequillhandssomecreativitypotionturnsthe"donotdisturb"signinsightandowlsyourboss"noworktoday"*forgot anything?now, pleeeezzz write us a looong nice chappie. did I say one? five would do - for the start.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Aww, you're sweet, but those poor sick people may not be impressed that you've hijacked their doc! :D

Response from salvamea (Reviewer)

oh. that is a point.well, quick to those poor sick people, I help you if you need  a nurse?, and then back to "work"I do hope, you don't use your evil cliffie - business on them. "you are ill- i can cure it- but more next week." I think they wouldn't like that either. *lol*

Most Evil Torturer, that chapter was brilliantly done!So many moments where it seemed you might end our agony, but No! Foiled each time.Thank you for the sleepness nights I'll no doubt endure until the next update.Brilliant.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

What a intense update, please let Severus do something clever with that hair so he can find out just who his secret lover were? Wonderfully written as always:-))

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Thank you.  He's a clever man.  A little blinkered, but clever. :)

arynwy

Well, if he can't figure it out from just looking at the hair - there is always Polyjuice, IF he can get someone to take it without too many questions... but he's got to already know. Yes?

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

He's off on the wrong track at the moment, but I'll guide him back soon. :)aeron's response: Poor Sev. Got him chasing his own tail. Did that house-elf help Hermione?

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

She sent the house-elf in to nick the piece of paper with her address off his desk.

"It was a single hair. Long, brown, and curly." And now he knows! He does know, doesn't he? I'm right, aren't I? *turns puppy dog eyes on Sunny33* Can I have the next chapter now, pleeeeease? ^_^

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Um, isn't it YOUR turn? :P

Response from MsTree (Reviewer)

"Damsels and Dragons" is in the queue. "Heaven and Hell" will go into the queue either tomorrow or Wednesday. Had to badger the betas for the chapters, but I have them now. It's been a strange summer topped off by dodging a hurricane that was interfering with my mother's vacation trip to Maine to see her newest great-granddaughter. I spent almost two weeks driving her there and back with a 4 day layover to allow Irene to go over us. ^_^

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

All rightie then. Consider youself forgiven! :)

Agh! He's going to find out now!! Oh how exciting! I love this story - I wonder how mad he'll be!!

ArtemisofEphesus

Ooh ooh ooh, he doesn't know who she is... I think Hermione would be a bit insulted though that he didn't think of her at all as a possibility! Smart girl though, all that charm work.Anyway, I am meant to be revising for my midsemester exam, which is in AN HOUR. *aargh* But I couldn't help myself. THAT IS HOW GOOD THIS STORY IS, dammn it.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Hey, if the exam is in an hour, you're better off to chill a bit anyway.  Good luck! :)

Response from ArtemisofEphesus (Reviewer)

Haha, thanks! It went fine, I think. Except for the bit where my phone starts ringing and I forgot to turn it off because no-one ever calls me anyway... so embarrasing.Anyway, I'll stop hijacking your review space :) Can't wait until the next chapter!

Grrr! Evil cliffie! I had saved up these last two chapters as a reward for completing my work. (Note: I didn't complete my work). SO great! Hot, hot heat. What's he gonna do????? EEEeeee!

LOL. Next chapter is almost done.  Then you'll find out! :)

Nice update! I liked how he got defensive/shuttered at first, until she explained herself. And that he jumped aboard as quickly as possible was perfect. I'm glad Minerva can support this idea. Hope the Governors will agree...
