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
Pretty hot! I can't imagine Snape is going to react well though when he finds out who she is!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Sparks will fly! :0
Lol! Somehow, I've always managed to read this at work and had to stifle my giggles ;)I think this ranks quite high in the stories which put S and H in the most embarrassing situations (lol to the mirrored reading of the letter!) and Hermione's straightforwardness always amazes me. But here, I'm more surprised by the fact that Snape did reply to 'Grace''s last letter and even added his own spoonful of innuendoes... He accepted Grace's avances instead of avoiding to reply or chastising her for her thoughts. He didn't thought "Oh you are too young to hear that I'm frigging for you" or something like that. I'm quite happy of his acceptance :D

His libido is winning the battle with his conscience bit by bit. :D
Response from cabepfir (Reviewer)
Let's hope it will win even once he'll discover who Grace is ;)
Wow, I wasn't expecting her to make a move on paper like she did. I'm glad she did. Oh, man. I can't wait to see what happens at the showing, and afterwards. And once he finds out, and hopefully gets over whatever bad feelings he will surely feel, will he see her as Grace, or Hermione?
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
She couldn't help herself. Had to wind him up! Except it came back and bit her on the bum. ;)
Mercy!!! I LOVE THIS CHAPTER!! I can't wait to see where you take this and I can't wait until Severus figures out it is Hermione he painted!!Well Done!!!! and WOW!!!!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks! :)
I was so excited to see another update for this! I have already read it through twice, and am now reading all the reviews, and the responses. I look forward to the next chapter (and the next, and the next). I really like the way you are developing 'your' characters, and I am especially enjoying Blaise in this chapter. You have managed to make him an interesting side character with just a few brief words. It adds a lot of depth to the story.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thank you. He just happened, really, but now he won't go back to his corner! :)
They swim in very dangerous waters communicating effectively in public. It's hot and tempting. Yet, I'm afraid of Blaise here. He shows more interest in Hermione than I would like. But that in itself promises some very interesting progress.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
And Snape put them together It's all his fault! :)
Another great chapter. The pot is starting to simmer. I wonder what will happen when it not only boils but boils over onto Hogwart grounds. I look forward to your next update.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks, sevi! :)
Oh how I missed you... please no feast, fire, famine, or flood. Great chapter, love the innuendo and the letters. Is Zabini in any way being involved on the developments? That exhibit should be Fantastically Fabulous, specially if they arrive earlier to the studio and have some frolicking and take care of each other... a little... you know, to help with the jitters.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Lips sealed... ;)
Oh god, "Often". Damn. What would I do if he wrote "often" to me....*Drool!*
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Hehe, melt perhaps? ;)
I gotta tell you, I am so enjoying this fic! It's just so delicious, but I'm eager to see how our dear 'Sidney' reacts to Hermione, once the jig is up. I'm sure you're going to take us on a wild ride, so I've got my seat-belt fasened, and I'm ready to go!Seriously, this is such an enjoyable story - I love the way you had us reading along with Severus, yet hearing Hermione's thoughts with each paragraph. Nicely written work.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Well, I've just taken the kids to all the theme parks on the Gold Coast, so I've seen a LOT of rollercoasters... ;)
I can't tell you how happy you made when I saw your update. Unfortunately I saw the last movie this week and it was horrible, so you lifted my spirits with this!!
Well this was hot!! And they really need to get together and get some, lol. I am anticipating hermione's reviling. I can't wait for more, great job!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thank you. :D
Wonderful continuation! I'm still all at once fretting and excited for when (or if?) Hermione is discovered. Until then, I love the banter between Sydney and Grace! Thank you so much for sharing this - looking forward to the next parts! ♥♥
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks for your review! :)
Grace, you tart. Poor Snapeny, he'll be a wreck soon.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Poor man can barely concentrate on terrorising the students! :0
I hope you are taking good care of yourself. As I am. Often.I love it! He would be mortified if he knew who he was writing to. I suspect that since he is so into Grace, once he found out it was Hermione, he could come to terms with it and carry on with her, despite his new knowledge. (Post school, of course. Sometimes you can be too much gentleman!) I think the sticking point, as far as I can see, will be his anger at finding that she knew who he was, but didn't let on to her identity. Or maybe by some stoke of luck, he will be flattered that she knew and pursued him anyway. But this is Snape we are talking about.I will stop speculating and start wishing on the evening star for lack of feast, fire, famine, or flood in your corner of the world.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Yes, will he think, "She knew who I was, didn't say anything, and had sex with me," or will he think, "Wow! She knew who I was, didn't say anything, and STILL slept with me!"? Not telling, either way . :P
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
... or at least flirted with me... 'cause, they haven't actually done anything yet. All talk, these two!
Response from HBAR (Reviewer)
For now, anyway. The big event will be infinitely better if there has been loads of cheek-reddening-wank-inducing-not-safe-for-class letter writing. I just hope she has the sense to not sleep with him as Grace! Of maybe that is better because he will know what he is missing if he tries to shun Hermione. I always try to guess what you will do to these two, and I am usually way off. Speculatiing is nearly as fun as reading the next chapter *nudge nudge*
Yes! Yes! Yes! Another chapter. It's only been, like, forever! Or maybe it just seemed that way. *grin* I like how Severus had to leave the classroom in the middle of class. How unlike him! ^_~
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Seemed like forever when I was trying to get the SSHG exchange done and knowing I should have been doing this! :)
I have been patiently waiting for and then thoroughly enjoying every chapter that has been posted. BUT! After a chapter like this one, please please pleeeeeeze update soon! There are so many unresolved....issues. Grace and Sidney's attraction, Hermione's crush on Severus, Blaise's strange politeness to Hermione, and Draco and his hair.... not to mention his thing with Neville. Oh my! More, more, more, please!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Draco's hair seems to be developing a life of its own! Chapters should be more regular now. I'm pleased you're enjoying this. :)
*Twitch*Very nice. Need moar. Feed the revelation starved reader, yes?
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
I'm cookin' up a storm for you! :)
I can only imagine Sidney taking Grace to the exhibition, where they are feted, and then to his home afterwards, where I suspect her glamour might just wear off before morning. How long do those things last anyway? Wouldn't that be a shock to go to bed with Grace and wake up with Hermione?I wonder if her Mom and Dad want to see the exhibit? That would be creepy.I like that he dreams about her. I mean, why wouldn't he? After staring at each part of her intently enough to reproduce it, he likely has her memorized. I like that he thinks about her personality and capabilities and not just her physical attributes.Thanks for sharing your story.
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thank you. Her hands are important to him, but he doesn't know why yet. :)
*Screams* AHHHHH!!!! I can't wait! ohmigodohmigodohmigod. Update soon, yes?! LOVE IT
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
LOL. Yes. :D
Dawn sneaked into his room to find a restless wizard lying naked and sweat-kissed amidst a tangle of sheets, turgid cock in his hand, gasping out his shame in spurts of creamy seed. nghh, what an image! I've been feeling very sorry for poor Severus, too repressed to even wank without shame, how nice that at least that has been worked out. Can't wait for the exhibition!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
I'm pleased you like that sentence. It was one of my favourites. :)
I was glad to see that a new chapter of this was up, as I'd been waiting and hoping for one for quite some time. This has been a busy time for me, so I haven't been able to read as much fanfic as I'd normally like, but I made time when I got the notice in my email about the new chapter! And about that chapter...Oh my! Things are heating up quickly now! Hermione is becoming bold on paper, and I certainly felt sorry for Severus as he read "Grace's" letter in class. Poor man... Also, I can't help but wonder just where Blaise is going to fall into this, as he seems to be developing an interest in Hermione...will he wind up with a broken heart? Will Severus? And what will happen to Draco Malfoy's hair? The answers to all these questions and more will hopefully be answered soon! Thanks for posting this, and I can't wait until the next installment!
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
Thanks for taking the time to read and review! The next chapter will be up much quicker. :)
Behind her, Snape’s emerging smile withered into a careful study of neutrality. I'm sorry that Hermione thought Standish's idea for a new series of paintings was ridiculous. I think Severus liked it, and I'd love to see them do them. Even is Hermione didn't want to pose as herself, she could be painted with Grace's countenance. I'm still very curious about who bought Severus' painting.Beth
Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)
You'll find out her reasons in the next chapter. :)
