Mrs Lugubrious is author of a little-known monograph entitled Sexual Deviancy Among the Banshees of Killarny. The paper was never accepted into the Wizarding journals of her day, possibly due to concerns surrounding her unorthodox research methods. Only one original copy is still in existence, and may be perused in the Hogwarts Library (Restricted Section).

This was cute! I love the idea of Hermione rescuing Severus :)

Of course I immediately read this with Severus as the party in need of rescue - I didn't even notice the lack of gendered pronouns. Re-reading from a different perspective was fun. Clever!

Response from stgulik (Author of Rescued)

Everybody writes the clinging!Trelawney trope with Severus being the one in need of rescue. I wanted to challenge everyone. Glad you liked it!

On his terms

It works both ways, but I thought of Hermione as the rescuer first...  Imagining Trelawney throwing herself at Severus...

Response from stgulik (Author of Rescued)

Imagine Trelawney latching onto Hermione to campaign for giving Divination another chance, and Hermione being unable to get away until someone peels the woman off Hermione's arm. Good guy Severus! Thanks for reading.

I read it first as Snape being rescued, but I think I prefer him doing the rescuing. :)

Response from stgulik (Author of Rescued)

See, it works both ways. Thanks for coming over!

Mmmmm, Ulterior motive indeed, but whose, it would be most unlike  Severus to be caught off guard, but you know what they say " Great minds think alike " 

Response from stgulik (Author of Rescued)

I think it works both ways.

Personally, I like to imagine Severus saying "Hoping" and finally revealing something of himself. Beautiful short story. Thank you for sharing. Best regards from Italy.

To be honest, in the second section it is easier for me to imagine the roles reversed. I picture Hermione as more forthright and assertive and Severus as the sort to enjoy an ulterior motive or eight.Thanks for writing!

Response from stgulik (Author of Rescued)

I wrote it to challenge people, and had fun with it. Thanks for your comment.

I like it better with the dialogue switched ^^ Mostly because that "Why professor...?" line is So-Snape in my mind. :) Lovely story.

Response from stgulik (Author of Rescued)

It changes the dynamic so much, but we all have our preferences. 

Response from Mafer_Potter (Reviewer)

Absolutely. Thank you for making it double meaningfull. :) It was a good idea because everybody can choose the way they like it better :)

I love that you never say who is who, yet, we readers automatically assign roles.  I'm sure you did this for fun, not to make a point, but it does speak volumes about the way that we use certain themes and plot devices over and over in the fandom.  And honestly, I don't care who is who, and long as they hook up in the end.  ;)

Response from stgulik (Author of Rescued)

Very pragmatic of you!

well, is Sybill such a threat?obviously. When he even accepts to dance with Hermione...They make a quick exit, I must say... Bad example for the students, well well.Let them discuss the ulterior motives. and much much more.Nice yule ball story. Thanks for sharing.

Response from stgulik (Author of Rescued)

Thanks for your careful read and also taking the time to comment!
