Reviews for Happily Ever After
Oh crap and now they are engaged to marry. I loved your description of their reactions at the table when the annoucement was made- it was funny. I could feel them coming unglued.
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
i am so glad you wrote that. part of my biggest worry is that the reader won't become so attached that they almost "feel" the characters. you really made my day! thank you so much!
What a tangled web you weave - people he currently hates are in this world they become his family and mistress - poor guy. The stepped into their very own nightmare - lol. Sybil - I cringe.
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
i know. i was just mean enough to make him related or involved with his most hated peoples. Sybil i decided to make as opposite as i possibly could. i think it worked! (wink)
Things are looking very entertaining... Transported back in time by a portkey - her parents are in this lifetime not deatheaters even though Lucius is now her dad and Severus is some sort of nobility. What an original concept... I cannot wait to see what you make of it.
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
that was the fun part. lucius always acted like he had blue blood. and severus deserved to have a easy life. glad you approved of my little twist.
Good first chapter - I wonder where the book port-key took them. I loved the line she said to him - always a pleasure. Sounded so sexy and mature - not the student of the past but a woman's greeting.
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
thank you. i actually remembered her saying it to ron in the first movie. i loved that line. the way she said it. i could imagine the grown up hermione saying it still.
Oh, now wasn't that just cruel!I just found this story today, and have spent the last hour or so reading all of it. You are a wonderful writer, and this story is absolutely terrific! I just love the styles of dresses!The scenes with Draco are so funny! I laughed so hard, my siblings had to whack me with pillows to get me to shut up! They were simply hilarious!I wonder what will happen next! I thought for sure Hermione would burst into tears. I really have to wonder how they're going to take it all. I mean, they must have been in that book for at least a year, and they had just had their first child together. . . let's just say it's going to be an interesting scene in the next chapter! But I have faith in you to make it perfect!Thank you so much for this wonderful story! I have enjoyed it very much, and look forward to the next installment!~Katie
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
thank you. i am so glad you enjoyed it. most of the credit must go to tinnidawg for keeping me in period. i kept forgetting and making it too modern.glad you liked my scenes with draco. i loved writing him. he is so pompous i just had to play on that. i am working on a dm/hg if you are interested. also have another ss/hg outlined. and lm/hg. i am trying to branch out.i hope my next and final chapter doesn't disappoint. i had a lot of fun writing and am forever grateful to those who have taken the time to read my story. it has motivated me and inspired me to finish this. look for the final chapter around the weekend. that is my projected posting date.kari
The country estate was a good honeymoon for them - it gave them time to get to know each other a little better. Hermione is going to bed coming to be naked if he keeps ripping night gowns - lol
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
now that he has her, all he wants to do is play with his new toy!
AAAACCCCCKKKK!!!! You are pure evil!! ^.~ So much lovely bliss and then THAT??? I absolutely adore this, but now I canNOT wait for the next. Quick, quick, quick please hehehe
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
this coming weekend, hopefully. i will make sure i get my proofread version to tinnidawg tomorrow so we can hopefully get it posted by then.
Aaaaaaah! That was the scream of a reader plummeting over the cliff. How could you DO that to us? Them? Everybody? Looking forward to the next installment -- even though I'm heartbroken about the baby. Thanks for your work!
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
i know. i am feeling like the big bad wolf. or at least like lucius at an order meeting. hee hee. hopefully the reader will recover in time to read the next chapter? hee hee.
I really think thats a horrible book, to put someone though having a child that they would already love and then snatch it away from them.I like the story though and cant wait for the next chapter.Cheers-K
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
i know. as i told someone else, i am starting to feel guilty about it. i am awed by everyone responses and am humbled to have so many read it. thank you for taking the time to read and review.
Sybil was a snarky witch in this one - Well she married Fudge - ewww. I liked the whole chapter and cannot wait to see what happens between them for the falling in love part - Hermione is moody - can she be pregnant?????
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
yeah. poor hermione. hormones suck. i know. i had fun pairing those two up. make them both miserable.
Oh, that's just MEAN!!! I wanted to at least know if it was a boy or girl. I can't wait to see what happens to our couple next.
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
ok, i am feeling guilty enough. i will let you know in the next chapter if it is a girl or boy. thank you for reading my story! hopefully, the next chapter will be posted this coming weekend.
Oh no! *sniffle* Why'd the have to go back just then? We didn't even get to find out if the baby was a boy or girl, and we didn't get to see the family's reactions. I knew they were going to go back eventually, but -like Severus and Hermione- I found myself kind of hoping they could stay there a long while longer. I guess now I'm just really hoping that they'll find the happiness they had in the book again now that they're back to the 'real world'. Seriously, I'm really excited to see how this experience has changed them now that they're back in their 'natural' environment.
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
thank you. i hope you find the next chapter answering your questions. i almost feel like i should make an alternate chapter 17. will have to see what people think of the next one.
Oh, NO! I hope things aren't spoiled between them now that they are back in their rightful time.
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
we shall see. next chapter should be posted soon. just have to polish it and submit to for posting.
Ha! I love how Severus tricked Sibyll. Poor Cornelius is stuck with that evil woman unfortunately, but Severus made a clean break. Very glad to see the update!
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
Thank you. I am glad you like the direction it is going. Next chapter will hopefully be ready for posting soon. We are proof reading and editing as I type!
Ooooh! What an exciting chapter!!!I can't wait for the next update though!!!
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
It is written and going through a final proof-read before I submit it for posting. Glad you liked the chapter!

OH I'm sooooo tickled to see this update. Funnily enough I just reread the rest last week or so, so it was all fresh in my mind. ^.^It was great. Loved how Severus got Sybill off their backs for good. Harry made me cringe a little but we'll just chalk that up to him being a big kid hehe. Not so long for the next update?? *hint, hint* ^.~
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
I was not sure if I was going to make Harry a villian or not. I decided to just make him a tad unlikeable. Cause I really do like Harry.
Don't worry, the rest of the story is already written and betaed. Just have to double check the grammar and then it should be posted.
Yay! To be honest, I'd completely forgotten what this story was about, but I reread chapter 15 and it all came back to me. This chapter was a true joy to read! I am so glad that the whole Sibyll situation has been resolved, though I must admit that her faking her pregnancy was quite a surprise, I hadn't thought about that option at all. I can't wait to see where you take this!
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
Glad you liked the chapter. Only two left! They are already written and hopefully will have them posted soon. Glad the pregnancy thing was a surprise. I was half and half on whether she would actually be pregnant or not.
Glad to see the end of the Sybill business. That woman has underhanded ways to get what she wants.
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
Yes, poos Sybill. May she learn her lesson!
Tis been far too long since the last update....what happened? I love this story and would hate to never see it ended properly.
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
I haven't abandoned it. Real life and huge writers block. i am currently working on the next chapter with my wonderful beta. so hopefully, only a couple more weeks before i can post it. thank you for hanging in there with me. trust me, i will finish it, i hate abandoned fics even though i read them!
This is the only 'lost' story I've read continually. I got to wondering while I read this chapter as to what happens when they finally manage to get out of the storybook??? Do they just start up right where they were when they entered the book, or have they actually been gone from their reality for a length of time and do they come back with extra 'baggage'???
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
that will be answered at the end of the story. don't worry, i won't leave that question unanswered. i am truly touched that you have kept up with my story. thank you.
Thank you. I've always hated when stories include these amazing orgasms when having sex for the first time. I love that hermione's only orgasm came from foreplay!I really enjoy your snarky, yet teasing Snape.
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
Thank you. I am glad you are enjoying the story. I didn't think it was right for her to always orgasm, decided to make that a little more true to life. Hopefully, it won't take so long to update.
good chapter.
Response from harrypotterfan2005 (Reviewer)
keep that whore Sibyll away from severus and hermione please
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
Unfortunately, Sibyll won't be able to leave them alone. I actually am enjoying the little scheming witch! Don't let that deter you from reading future chapters!
Response from harrypotterfan2005 (Reviewer)
as long as she does not try to get severus drunk and nude and in bed with him and is this story hermione and severus are in is it a real book.
Oh I was so tickled to see this update!! FANTASTIC way to start my day!LOVE "General" Hermione. So "her", but still so funny. And Severus knows enough to just grit his teeth and say "yes ma'am". Too great.I wonder about the "slight frown that fleetingly crossed" Harry's face. Hmmmm. Could be some waves on this serene little lake they're currently residing on. Can't wait to see if it really means anything.Hope real life is kinder to you. ^.^ Keep up the great work!
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
You are correct. There are some things brewing under the surface. They will start to appear in the next chapter! Good catch. Glad you enjoyed this chapter.
I'm so glad for the update. Things seem to be too perfect there. Is there a catch? I guess Severus and Hermione will soon find themselves back in their reality. i wonder if Hermione will still be pregnant.
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
Yes, there is a catch. Or two. Don't worry, serenity is lost next chapter. I was going to tie it all in this chapter, but thought the sooner updated, the better. Just makes for a long chapter 16!
love the story so far.
are u going to update anytime soonn i hope u do
Response from kbauman24601 (Author of Happily Ever After)
I definitely will try to update sooner this time. Real life has slowed down. Glad you are enjoying the story so far. This snow storm we are having will keep me closer to the computer!!
