No????? What do you mean “no”? They were clinging to each other by the end of the night.

Because they were laughing at your… Dearest, I adore you, but I hesitate to dignify your ludicrous attempt at illustrating the labours of human lust with the label “story”. I gather your wizard has been lonely for many, many, many years, so perhaps you were unfairly influenced by his choice of reading materials. But, darling, did his reaction not make it obvious that you failed?

Oh. I thought they were sobbing with joy.
I suppose laughter makes a bit more sense. My friend minikitty tells me humans don’t bite during mating.
Never mind! We can still do this. They were touching, after all! Give me a day or two to revise the story (and yes, it was a story!), and we’ll move on from there.

If by “revise the story” you meant “bin the story”, I agree with my whole heart.
Do you need my assistance locating the delete button?

The only thing that could have made that piece of Hippogriff dung worse would have been having Luna Lovegood and Rolf Scamander show up at the end.
“Rolf,” Luna Lovegood said breathlessly, “did you hear that?”“No, my little snorkysnottle,” Rolf admitted indulgently. “What is it?”
“I’m sure I heard the copulation cry of Funkysnozzled Rock Troll!” exclaimed Luna excitedly. “Let’s investigate!”
“Onwards!” cried Rolf.
Bin it, kitten.

you wouldn’t mock my efforts! I tried. It’s not my fault I didn’t know about how witches and wizards go about it. Won’t you help me make sure we can be together some day?
This is important, Crooksie.
P.S. I see you can type splendidly when it means making me look silly!
P.P.S. Don’t call me “kitten”!
P.P.S. What makes you think Luna Lovegood would be spending time with Rolf Scamander?

Dearest, darling Crookshanks,
I will do no such thing. See you next Thursday!

P.S. Since when have you been so romantic in email?
P.P.S. I know you can type properly!

It will happen for them, they just need to be patient. If they even know the meaning of that word, lol. I'm sure Knowi doesn't.
I don't know whether to be screaming, "Oh no!" or "Oh yes!" :) This is cracking me up.
Well of course Knowi has work to do, lol. This is too much fun, plotting against their owners. Cats are too smart as it is, so I can imagine with some kneazle mixed in, they could take the world by storm.
Funny. Funny. Funny.

LOL. Sounds like someone's kitty has been spending a little too much time watching Animal Planet. (Or is it Nat Geo?) I could just picture Crooks trying to keep it together long enough to find *something* positive to say about that perfectly horrible prose.Poor Knowi. Her heart's in the right place...Thanks for posting--hm88

LOL!! I hadn't thought about what her television habits might lead to; I was rather more worried about what she's been reading on the interwebs.

Over the years, I have been trained by many of my small, furry owners. I have been trained by both, cats and small dogs {or as the males of my family say, cats that bark} all experts in the fine art of, getting their own way. I have to say ,that Severus and Hermione may as well give in gracefully, they can not win,their fate is sealed. The Masters have spoken.

*grin* And the fit hits the shan? Love Knowi's writing style. Reminds me of some other fan fiction I've read over the years (but not on this archive). ^_^
Response from TeaOli (Author of Supreme Masters of the Universe Hatch a Plan)
Knowi's style is... something, isn't it? Her full story is on the archive, so unfortunately there's at least one of that sort at TPP!

I want to read more! Please tell me that there is more to come!!
Response from TeaOli (Author of Supreme Masters of the Universe Hatch a Plan)
LOL! There's more to come. I don't know when I'll get them cleaned up enough for posting, but there are two more chapters till the end. Thanks for reading and for being so eager!

Sue me... those precocious kitties make me smile. :D After watching "Too cute!" on Animal Planet last night, I can even envision them living in domestic bliss... if you can just make those pesky humans see reason.Looking forward to your next installment--hm88

Oh, Knowi, you little treasure! Both myself and next-door's-ginger-cat agree (of course I would agree with Simba - I may be human, but I am not completely silly), laughter can be a great way to encourage progress. I need not implore you to persist, as your far-superior mind is made up. Crooks' offer of assisted 'delete' key location has a familiar ring to it... As though a certain human could have spoken those exact words in purrfectly pronounced sarkiness ;o)
Response from TeaOli (Author of Supreme Masters of the Universe Hatch a Plan)
LOL! That's just what Knowi needs: further encouragement!

Tea, this is fantastic! I have personal experience of being 'trained' by the Furry-footed ones (including next door's ginger cat) and I still haven't worked out how they do it! I would not put it past them to use the internet (kitteh iz on ur keyboardz readin' ur e-mailz). Love the way Knowi strategically uses S's speech pattern and vocabulary. Thanks for a morning laugh to go with coffee!

LOL, the cats are certainly as intelligent as their masters. Looking forward to the molly's plan. Thank you.

Thank you for reading! You'll get a glimpse of Knowi's plan soon.

Oh, my goodness...this was precious! (I shudder at the thought of a cat being allowed/able to use the computer, however...especially through voice-activated software!) I have a question, though...if Hermione visits Severus every Thursday, then surely she knows about Knowi...and if that's the case, wouldn't she already suspect that Severus might have an interest in her given that he named his cat Knowi Tall (Know-It-All)? Or was Hermione the one who gave Knowi to Severus (with the result that Knowi was christened in her honor)?
Response from TeaOli (Author of Supreme Masters of the Universe Hatch a Plan)
LOL! I've no doubt Hermione shares your reluctance (else wouldn't she have accommodated Crookshanks already?) to a certain extent.As for Knowi, she was introduced in Lessons in Metempsychosis and Saṅsāra, and her origin story comes out over the course of that story. Hermione is fully aware of who and what she is!
Response from MlleGigi (Reviewer)
I had a look at "Lessons in Metempsychosis and Samsara" as you suggested..much is explained (at least about Knowi, that is...the plot of that story seems rather convoluted and is eluding my attempts to understand it thus far). I'd already figured out that unless Knowi had been a gift from Hermione in some way, she must have a few characteristics -- perhaps more than a few -- which reminded him of Hermione, and I gather that Knowi has long, wavy/curly fur of a rather mousy brown color. I can see how that combined with her temperament -- since being bossy is unfortunately one of Hermione's less-appealing traits -- would be enough to bring Hermione to mind.
Response from TeaOli (Author of Supreme Masters of the Universe Hatch a Plan)
Lessons in Metempsychosis and Saṅsāra does have a complex plot, but it's in no way "convoluted" – every bit of it matters and contributes to issues raised in the story summary. Perhaps once I have more than a single full chapter posted here, you'll feel less lost. Perhaps not. Tastes in reading materials vary.

Yay! I love it! Can wait to see what they have in-store for their humans. :)

*grin* It's a good thing I don't have any cats at the moment. This story might give them ideas. The cats I've had in the past had enough ideas without having a story give them more. ^_^

I loved it and hope that my cats never finds out how to use the computer:-))
Response from TeaOli (Author of Supreme Masters of the Universe Hatch a Plan)
Thank you! If your cats do start using the computer behind your back, I hope they only use their powers for good. Unlike Knowi and Crooks.

LOL I love seeing Crooks delve into his inner Severus. Thanks for the wonderful little treat.
Oh my! Silly cats. I can't wait to see the reaction to that.
Very interesting way to set the stage. I look forward to seeing what happens next.
