Humor Potions Under Duress 8,736 Words 1 Chapter Complete
Hermione Granger Severus Snape

If Severus survives the war (assuming that the good guys will win), in the immediate aftermath his life will be hell. Oh, he may be pardoned eventually, or even exonerated. He might manage to hide out until the charges are dropped. But there are going to be rough times. Nothing he can't handle; his life has always been pretty miserable. But. What if there aren't? How would Severus Snape respond to a world in which things go his way?

It's just as wonderul now as when I first read it!  I'm so glad you gave Severus the happy ending JKR will most undoubtedly not.  I totally fangirl you (as if I didn't before)!

Response from a_bees_buzz (Author of A Good Day)

Thanks, sweetie!  And thanks for all your work on the story!

That would be the perfect end! :D I had a smile on my lips all through the story.

Response from a_bees_buzz (Author of A Good Day)

I'm so pleased that I made you smile.  Lets just hope that JKR is as kind!

OMG. "“That we continue to have sex. I may not be sure of my feelings for you, but I am very sure that I absolutely love the way you fuck me.”" That is a brilliant line. This is a brilliant story. I'm so glad that sshg316 pointed you  out. Congrats on a fabulous story!

Response from a_bees_buzz (Author of A Good Day)

Thank you so much!  I thought it was important to establish that Hermione was as pleased with their encounter as Severus was and that "courting" not be a restrained activity ;D

I often return to this story when I'm thinking about how dismal everything usually turns out... but what if everything went RIGHT?  It's the driving force behind Hooligans and a story I post under my alter ego.  I have it listed as a favorite but never reviewed, which I thought I would remedy today.  So, sorry for the delay, but I do enjoy coming back to this one.

Great story, poor Severus thinking it was nought but a dream!!Also liked the chapter titles ... buffy fan much?x

Response from a_bees_buzz (Author of A Good Day)

More of a Rodgers and Hart fan, actually:

I knew the song long before the Joss-verse came along - my parents had the Ella Fitzgerald recording.  Though I do quite like Buffy. 

I'm glad you enjoyed the story. 

Response from vampyrgoth (Reviewer)

ah, I stand corrected then! Thanks :)

Response from a_bees_buzz (Author of A Good Day)

No worries!  :D

this was such a wonderful story.  your snape was absolutely perfect as he continued to believe that anything that happened that seemed good was clearly too good to be true.  so many lines had me rolling with laughter, and yet it was also very emotionally satisfying.  this is how i wish dh had ended.  need i say more?

Response from a_bees_buzz (Author of A Good Day)

Thank you for that review.  I wrote this just before DH came out; it's how I hoped it would all turn out.  I'm glad I could make you laugh.

Here I am again.  I reviewed this in 2008.  I read it again tonight and it still warms my heart on Severus's behalf.  Thanks for giving him what he deserved.

Loved it,  especially when he decided to just go with the flow of his 'delusion'!

The first time I've seen this.  It was lovely!  :D  Keeping you in my thoughts, also, dear. 

Response from a_bees_buzz (Author of A Good Day)

Thanks, hon.  And I'm glad you liked the story.

Very nice. You did a really great job with Hermione's and Snape's personalities and I like how you had Hermione being honest about not loving him yet...made the story seem more real. Awesome job!~Jen

Response from a_bees_buzz (Author of A Good Day)

I've never bought the idea that Hermione could really fall in love with the idea of Severus just because she knows what he's sacrificed.  Intrigued and attracted enough to want to explore the possibility, but not in love.  I'm so pleased that you liked that approach.

Found this in a random search.  What a fabulous find!  Thanks!

Quite a nice story! I enjoyed the twist on Severus' waking up experience, normally he's always portrayed as a wounded soul unable to realize he's alive and whatnot- here he is quite positive and I think the fact that he thinks he's imagining things is extremely endearing. Good story! :)

Damn, he has earned that! Thanks for a great read - I really love Snape having good days :-)

Response from a_bees_buzz (Author of A Good Day)

As far as I'm concerned, this is the real ending.  DH?  Just another silly bit of fanfic.  ;D

Response from chivalric (Reviewer)

Precisely what I think, as well. One possible ending out of many, but not a good one, and not one I consider worth reading more than once. Unlike your ending ;-)

Very well done. The idea is brilliant: Anything that can go right, will. Murphy will rotate in his grave.
