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. ;)

WHAT???AMAZING finally some tongues in public... I'm just joking, but I'm very happy that something started to come out, because I know from personal experience that it's better to start "leaking" something out bit by bit, than wait for the lion's roar a the end...Wonderful writing, I sincerely didn't anticipate them getting caught!Love you!!

Why do you tease us so?!?! Why?As usual, lovely all around, but I especially loved his gift to her and the kiss, of course!Ron's gifts made me chuckle madly. (Oh, Ron!) I don't care where Blaise's scarf came from, or about the significance of it: I'll bet he looked delicious very nice in it.Ginny, Ginny, Ginny. Will the kiss shut you up about Kingsley, I wonder? I hope it doesn't. You're the little sister I always wanted, but I always wanted a little sister so that someone else would be the Tortured Youngest Kid for a change. evil!Tea!!

Stop ogling my Blaise, woman! : P

At least now everyone knows. Now she better finds the damsel in distress before he gets his knickers in a twist.

He 's no damsel in distress, just a big chicken! :)

Yep, innocent nonchalance, that'll work in this situation...or not.  The poor dears need to get off the rollercoaster ride for something a little more calm and stable.

What? Who me? Might work! :)

"What?" indeed. She's going to have to come up with some good answers PDQ.

Glad to see Hermione has a nice job offer to consider, and has Blaise found someone he can move on with?Oh, and he leaves her to face them alone...  Damn the man!  Looking forward to seeing what happens next!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Blaise couldn't help stirring things up a little. Besides, if he had kissed Hermione with Snape knowing how he feels about her, things could have become very awkward for him in all sorts of ways! ;)

Great chapter,  I can't wait to see what the other's say to Hermione after the show she just gave them.  I guess Ginny is feeling a bit out of sorts with the realization it is Snape and not Kingsley.  Poor Severus, giving into his basic instinct and then realizing where the hell he is... oops    Please don't wait so long to grace us with another chapter.  I just adore this story.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Should be back in my normal routine next week. All these long weekends and days off have been playing havoc with my writing schedule. :)

grace_austen

Delightful. Love the intricate detail of all the gifts. The reunion and kiss that I was hoping for. But in front of an audience, oops! I so wonder what will happen next. What will they perceive? How will this affect our favorite brooding professor?
I am fascinated with your thoughtful character development and plot predicaments. The twists, turns, and red herrings are elegant and masterful. This is my absolute favorite story by far and I await each chapter with sweet anticipation. Thank you.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Thank you, Grace. :D

Loved the update, especially the end where they very well might have exposed themselfs to everyone. I must say I look forward for the next update:-)) Blaise scarf were perfect and I am totally happy that you let Luna snag him for the New Years Kiss. GInny really is clueless, I admit to enjoy it more than I should probably. I know she has absolutely no ill intentions, but she is intruding in Hermiones personal life a bit more than she should in my book.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Molly's genes are strong in that one! :)

Oh good God woman what are you trying to do to me?  Seriously I believe that is your worst cliffie yet.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

I can't help myself.  It's not like I think, "What shall I have for a cliffie this chapter?"  It's just that dramatic moment always seems to be the best place to end one! :)

He loves a dramatic exit, doesn't he? :)

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Sure does :)

Fantastic - from the Runes necklace to Kingsley showing up  - I held my breath wondering exactly what type of proposal/proposition he was going to make to Hermione - hehe! - so, I was relieved when Blaise showed up... but when Sev actually carried through, under threat of Minerva to the Burrows - and the count down kiss - *Squeeing!!!* Hahaha "What?" - brilliant! Thank you for all of the stimulating fun!

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Had to get Kingsley in on the action. :)

Hi, your chapter came on the 13th day of Christmas, but is warmly welcome nevertheless. What a great read on a grey Saturday!Well, Severus, you have selected these runes very thoughtfully! None of them says anything about waiting in agony! I also liked that Hermione gave him something useful. Of course, there's the boxer, too. Hermione not checking the place she shops, that's a clear sign she's been VERY distracted. The outcome is exquisite. Thanks for your attention to such sideplots! Likewise for her job offer!Why do I feel Monerva regrets her resolute request?Ginny's suspicion is finally proven wrong, and now indeed, the question is, "What?"

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Exactly.  How does she wriggle out of that one?  Or does she?  ;)

Response from Bettina (Reviewer)

Well, one doesn't snog the hell out of one man while loving another, so what's left to wriggle out of? The Weasley parents have undoubtedly heard of Hermione's unknown love, and they will ask for an explanation. Then there's the headmistress...Forgot: Hermione (as well as Minerva) will later pick a bone with Severus about his shameful exit. Basic instincts, my foot! You've received a great set of reviews, all very true!

U like those evil cliffies don't you?? Great Chapter can't wait to find out what everyone says!

Evil... me?  Noooo! ;)

FINALLY!!!! some progress.  I've been mostly reading this on my phone.  I love this story and really have been gritting my teeth through the last four or five chapters waiting for something positive to happen.  Excellent work.

Response from sunny33 (Author of Limited Exposure)

Must be hard work reading on the phone screen!  Glad you liked it. :D

Response from gersknightlady (Reviewer)

its not so bad when you turn it long ways.  It's the only way to read Tpp at work.  There are somtimes hours when I have nothing to do (I wait for student's to come to me for help).  I enjoy reading the stories.
