After the crappy day I've had, I really needed that. Thanks Southern, you're awesome. Am really looking forward to the whole wedding night scene. Is Snape gonna collect Mione's virgin blood for some sick sounding potion? That always cracks me up. Especially when he transfigures his tool to do so.

How old timey!

...Indeed.

“I have raped people,” he said menacingly, eyes lowering. She grinned wickedly. “I have thought about it.” His eyes snapped to meet hers, and he almost smiled, but he was too surprised. “Whom?” “You, of course,” she said, giggling.

...But of course.

...and "Lord" Severus Snape?

Oh, my goodness, but you've had your fun writing this!  It's fun to read, too.  Ah, the memories.

Bwahahahah!! This has everything! From the divider (lol!) to Hermione's dad being 16 years older than her mom... everything! Now all it needs is for Albus to have been the mastermind behind the ML as a part of one big matchmaking scheme to get Hermione and Severus together (but don't worry; they'll fogive him and thank him later for manipulating their lives bacause they'll be so happy together!!!)...

Eagerly awaiting more! 

 Hey SW...     Spell cheesy! I can't believe mlc  used to be this cheesy, no wonder I no longer read them.Your one is parody  for a good reason, I laughed my heart out.  Thanks.

Ah, I see the problem my dear.  You write too well.  I think people are expecting a formally declared parody to be, well, awful...but it isn't, is it?  Very nicely done!  (Even for a parody.)Now...where is the rest of it, hmm?~Lotm

Oh, what have you done! You have such a cruel eye for clishés. Everything you have written here, I have read before... The Snape-must-make-a-list-thing just last week.I think I will not be able to read another MLC after that. Your story is like a cold shower that makes me realize how afwul all those stories are. All of them. Unfortunately the so called "good" ones, too. Then even those have enough cheesiness (do you remember the coupling-wands for example, everyone is watching in the antechamber?)For me this kind of parody is more cruel, but also more intelligent than the LSTLG-kind of parody. With this one you will tread on many toes. I admire your courage. I was gasping several times reading this chapter, thinking how can she dare that!(I hope it doesn't show the beginning of the end of your fanfiction-writing-career...)So, I'm limited to give you five stars, but I would like to give you some billion stars for cracking the MLC-code!

LOL. Say she's the "brightest witch of the age" again! Go on! Say it!!Actually there was some stuff in there I actually liked. And scarily enough, even if you were TRYING to make fun of some of the fan fic, I've read WAY worse than this which was intended to be serious!You can't even try to be bad.

Wow, golly gosh, that's just so...generic. How about we start there. I'm assuming this is some sort of "Can't we have another challenge" thing?

You should win an award for using so many of the queso-covered cliches in such a small space!  I laughed all the way through, and I am loving reading the reviews too.  It is heartening to see that for the most part, people know what a parody is!

This is too funny.   I personally love the marriage law fics but this poking fun...is just great.  I recommend it to anyone wanting a good laugh.   

I love you and I hate you in the same time because of that horrible cleeffie. And for the moment I don't see where the parody lies... But you know what : as long as it's about Severus and Hermione I'll read it. SO now I only hope that it will be not too long before I can read the next. Anyway thank you for that brilliant first part.

Bahahaha, thank you for a brilliant laugh on a Monday morning!!! If I was to paste every line I liked here it would be a straight copy of the entire chapter. Delightfully clichéed, so obvious and yet subtle actions/OOCness, really, really well done!!!

What I love most, I think, is the fact that no matter how hard you try to write badly/poorly, it still comes out as something highly enjoyable. :-) 

^_^ That was horribly bad! (But it was very nicely done badness.) It's sad to think of how many months I spent reading this kind of thing when they were first being written. And I even enjoyed them....

Wonderfully cliche.  Very amusing.  Love the 'fast pace'--it reminds me of the rushed plotlines on some (not to be named) unmoderated sites.  Is it a one-shot or will it continue?

What does it say about me that I didn't actually find it all that bad? ;-) An abundance of clichés, OOC-ness and all that, yes, but the level of writing is still far better than half the stories that have used this challenge (and I've read too many of them - I admit, I have a soft spot for MLC fics, and sometimes I'm in the mood for OOC and fluffy *blushes*).

I did snicker though! And I'm looking forward to the shocking twists and unexpectedly great sex in the next chapter. ;-) 

This is indeed as awful as you warned us. In fact, I had to take a deep breath every few paragraphs and remind myself that you are the author to keep reading. This is disgusting. Frankly. Simply. Intentionally. Disgusting. Although, the person who came up with the idea of the Marriage Law deserves a medal. It remains the most beautiful shortcut to make HG and SS interact on a daily basis from the beginning of the story with the benefit of lemons throughout. This structure of a story provides everything a SS/HG shipper wishes for. Snarky dialogues, budding feelings and unconstrained lemons.A delight providing the characters are IN, the plot believable and the author skilled. Otherwise we get exactly what you wrote.And I believe that that is a problem of this kind of parody. Why should one read something like this if it does not bring any satisfaction? No delight? Just the regular torture of a bad fic? There are plenty "originals" out there that we stumble across every now and then to submit (at least) myself to the parody without a hint of good writing the author is capable of? In those lines I compare all and every bad-fic-parody to <i>Like Sands Through the Hourglass</i>, which I consider very pleasant to read. It must be challenging for a writer to alter the style in such a crude manner, but it is unsatisfactory for the reader. Sorry about that.

Thank you for something to laugh about this morning. Great way to start the day.

It's cheesy, but oddly satisfying...  

I'm home sick from work today with a terrible sinus / throat thing.  This had me cracking up.  So cliche but I love it.  :)  I can only assume and hope our Sex God Snape will be in Chapter 2 because this wouldn't be much of a parody if he didn't stop by.  And I still love him dearly and would love love love it if he stopped by.  Thanks for bringing a little laughter into my otherwise dismal morning.

Oh, LMAO!  I was feeling a bit snarky this morning but this has put me in a great mood.  It's sooo cliche that it is hilarious.  Alright then... bring on the Wedding Night SEX and show us what Snape's got to offer.  *snicker* 

"What's wrong with this picture?"  Well, Harry is exhibiting common sense about Snape and that's a bit odd, but the rest is just the way it should play out, right?  ;)  Actually, I was a hair reluctant to read this since it was called a parody and those are usually so horrible, mostly being simple declarative sentences that don't really logically follow each other.  However, I love your stuff so I read it anyway and am glad I did.  It's fun but not stupid, as so many parodies are.  [IMHO, anyway -- obviously a great many people enjoy them.]  So, thanks for the good job ... and since I'm pretty much guaranteed a happy ending, I can relax and happily wait the next installment.  Uh, right?  Thanks again!

This should be included in the fanfiction writer's handbook in the chapter entitled "Cliches That Would Not Die".Does this mean we can hope for SEX GOD Snape to make an appearance in the next chapter?  (Heart flutters in anticipation).  Maybe Hermione will discover through his masterful touch that there has been a SEX KITTEN hiding underneath her robes all this time and it ain't Crookshanks.Looks to me like you are having more fun writing this than is legal in most states.

MWAHAHAHAHAHA...this is ALMOST to much!  Can hardly wait for chapter 2

Oh, you're killing me, you're killing me! If I weren't laughing so hard, I'd be deleting my current MLC in shame. LOL

Hmm, I think you might have missed one or two MLC cliches somewhere, but perhaps they'll be in part 2.    Great spoof!
