It really sounds like severus really is trying to move on. I hope Hermione is in that futher. I'm glad the Malfoys are still friendly with him. Molly sereously lol.

Ooooohhh...“Unhand my wife at once!”...love this!Can't wait to see/read Lucius' reaction to his reappearance...And really can't wait for Severus and Hermione to finally meet...again...
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
I am seeing a really colourful trashy romance-novel cover in front of my inner eye with that sentence, Lucius' hair billowing ... They will meet in a few chapters, don't worry.

Oh, wow! Ten years of hiding undone by one little ol' Muggle-born witch. ^_^
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
Not just any little witch ... Thank you!

Oh, what else than a duplo-train do these two share?! Quite a risk Severus is taking there, if he assumes the Malfoys keep his secret. Does he even know what has happened to them in these 10 years after the article? Now let us in on Lucius' reaction, please!
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
Do not worry, Lucius is in the next chapter which is in queue ...

Now that was a rather unkind place to leave us! ;)If Severus "comes out" to the Malfoys, could he soon be willing to "come out" to Hermione?Staying tuned...hm88

He is not yet at a point where that becomes a necessity, but it will happen. Thank you!

Wow. How very noticeable for a man trying not to be noticed. It almost seems like the e-mails are putting chinks in his dam. He is making more moves to be recognized as Severus. It will be interesting to see what the fallout will be.
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
Mmh, indeed ... Severus IS moving forward, I guess his therapist will be very proud of him. Thank you!

I think Severus wants to come back to England. I hope Hermionie has some thing to do with it. They seem to me that they are becoming friends. Great chapte.r

Severus is already taking advice from her.. how interesting. Good for him, how well it has worked. Her confession that courage@gryffindor is overrated must've impressed him. They're both revealing too much private info, but this is exactly what happens when you feel some connection to an otherwise unknown person and don't see any risk for exposure. Until exactly this happens--looking forward to it!
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
Thank you for your long review! I think Hermione by now can be reasonably sure that she is not opening her heart to a tabloid journalist and Zelko is not risking a lot. If Hermione guesses who he really is she would not do go public with that knowledge. But alas, she is far from suspecting at the moment ...

I feel your love for the Goddess of Gymnastics!

Thank you, it caused me many, many bruises in my youth ...
I enjoyed their emails to one another. :) Looking forward to seeing where you take this story. And I just love picturing Snape googling queries. It's funny to imagine!
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
Thank you very much for your lovely responses. The story is finished and posted regularly, I even may have one epilogue in petto.

Overzealous, indeed! I was surpised by the casualness of her first email, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised that she sent another. Looking forward to seeing what it says. Great story so far!
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
Thank you!
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
Thank you!
Hmm...that was potentially a careless move, Snape! What if she wants to talk to this Mr. Zelko Princip in person?!
Oh, can't wait to read the next chapter! Onward I go.
Ahhh, that was an excellent start! The summary was intriguing and I think I'm hooked now.
I can't wait for him to let slip something so she'll realize who he really is.
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
We'll see ;) At the moment she is firmly convinced that Snape is dead and on the other hand happy to have found someone who reliefed her from her guilt and is nice to talk to. Thank you for your review!

Bimet malore is more like, mountainous plants, but it's not quite grammatically correct. You could use bimët e Alpeve or Gjelbërimi i Alpeve; Alpeve being "Alps".This would be standard/Tosk Albanian; I'm not sure how to say it in Gheg but generally speaking you're more likely to see Tosk anyway since it's standard.And no, i am not a native Albanian speaker, but I know some.
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
Thank you! How would Bimet malore
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
Thank you! How would Bimet malore be written correctly? Mountainous plants is allright with me.

Misty eyes... sweet! Hope the build up anticipatin goes further. Does Hermione suspects anythin?
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
I am quite certain she suspects nothing. She is all wrapped up in her project with Draconian Measures and at the moment her mails with Zelko are nothing more than a small, pleasant diversion after a long day at work, to be instantly forgotten when other matters come up.

Oooh, nice correspondence. It covers the bonding-over-research idea without bogging down in the technical details. And how interesting that Hermione and Draco are working together! I wonder if Draco will be Malfoy enough to put a tracer or something on one of Severus' owls?
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
Why should he put a tracer on an owl to Zelko? (insert slightly evil grin). Thank you for your long review.

Ah dear, he's creating a connection of his own now. Interesting. I'm honestly sad that I found this before it's completed. This is a lovely tale.
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
Do not worry, the story is completed and will be posted regularly (at weekly intervals or even shorter if the TPP-queue is short). Thank you for your review.

Which on-line dictionary? I use Free-Lang myself. ^_^
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
The google translater. Your review made me realise a mistake in chapter 3: It has to be Mountain Plants, not Alpine ... to my knowledge the Alps do definitely not extend towards Albania!
Response from MsTree (Reviewer)
I'm not sure where you are, but in California there are a variety of plants that are referred to as "Alpine" because they grow in the higher reaches of the Sierra Nevada ranges. I would imagine the designation would work in other parts of the world as well. *grin*I like the Free-Lang because the various dictionaries can be downloaded to your computer rather than just being used on-line. It's not a translator, per se, but an actual dictionary of languages with English translations. It has Scottish Gaelic, Irish Gaelic, Basque, and (which I made extensive use of for a story) Gothic, as examples of what's available. There are also several Amerind languages as well as dialects of various other languages. Just my 2 cents worth. ^_^

Excellent story so far. I haven't read one in which people were interviewed on wizarding wireless but it's simple and a great way for Snape to learn about what's up with everyone even from far away. I look forward to more!
Response from Minerva (Author of Being Muggle-born)
Thank you! It just popped into my head - Snape kneading dough somewhere south while listening to the radio - and grew from there.
