A Non-HBP, Non-DH, AU DM/HG fanfic.
(Acronyms: The Next Parseltongue.)
Set in a world where HBP and DH never unfolded, this AU plot bunny leapt out and throttled me last night, after perusing some DM/HG "Head Boy and Girl" fics. I really hope to keep it short, and of course all my other fics are screaming for endings, but what's another unfinished project? :) Rated for future chapters.

Someone who really, REALLY ought to be doing something else, but just keeps on writing.
Wondering why my stories take forever? Have a look at My Other Time Devourer: www.willametteartcenter.com I'm both the webmaster and the president of the Friends of the Visual Arts, a 501-C3 nonprofit in Salem, Oregon. We Put The Fun Back In Art.
Having 2 sweet little boys tends to drag things out too.
And what the heck, as long as it's self-pimpage time: If you just can't wait for the next chapter of Fair Ex, you can always go buy my book. It's not HP or fanfic but it's got that Fawkesy snark (in spades) It's here: www.turondo.com Warning: there's a bad word in the title.

Great chapter. I loved "I'm so fucking busted." :)
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
*sporfle* Yeah, that Draco knows the deal, even if he won't admit it.
Love the oblique reference to Draco's task in DH. I wonder if Snape is really trying to get Draco to take advantage of his opportunities, or if he's just trying to take advantage of Draco's self-interest to help Hermione... I know you said this wasn't supposed to be about Snape, but I can't help it, he's an interesting character even when he's playing a bit part!
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
Hee hee hee. I think Snape knows Draco well enough to push just the right buttons, in order to make him do what he wants. And Draco's "what's in it for Me?" button is always a great motivator.
this is a stich!!!
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
*big smile* I hope so!
I love how off-balance Severus' reprimand and orders put Draco. And how sure he was that Snape, like Crookshanks, had seen through his spell. I think his mantra of 'deny, deny, deny' probably slowed his comprehension of what Severus was actually saying.
This was a great chapter. ^_^
I wondered about the date at the beginning though, since it's earlier than the date on the previous chapter...
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
It is?? Oops. I did some switching today...have to go back and check everything.
This is such a cute story but u gotta finish it!
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
I know, I know... someday. HOnest.
eek! I really hope you update this eventually. the answers are coming...love blossoms in the air...the turtledoves doth approacheth...I'm still curious about harry tho.

I will, someday.

this story about snape's wife is interesting in the extreme, but I think my favorite bit is when snape says "don't be such a lightweight!" perfect.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
*snerk* I love Snape. He's so easy to write.

wha...? you can't abandon this story now!!! not when I've just discovered it here (with aproximately 15 more chapters than are posted on mugglenetff)! the only reason I read these non-canon pairings is to see if the author can get the characters together in a believable and interesting way! with only the beginning, that's just...arrrrgg!!!!! i want to see how you resolve the angst! and I want to know what harry did to snape's wife! and and and what is going to happen to everyone and everything and...you've made all these problems, please solve them before I explode!
and just by the way, draco is deeefinitely "tweaked" in this chapter. good grief.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
LOL, no worries. I've been finishing up a huge fic (HP and the Heirs of Slyth) but I plan to finish all my little fics. I still have amusing plans for Draco and Herms here...

I love this story! Your Draco and Hermione are adorable together, and I love how you've worked Snape into the mix. DHr and good writing are a rare combo, and I enjoyed the treat.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
LOL, well, glad I could bring both together for you!
Aww! So cute!
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
Draco would SO hate that!!
Aw, just when it was getting interesting... :-)
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
Tell me about it! But I GOTTA finish "Heirs."
Response from RedOrchid (Reviewer)
Yes, please do! :-) I can't tell you how hooked I am on that story.

Nothing like dancing to warm me up to the idea of a new pairing. Very nicely done! (Still mourning the fact that Snape is married though...)
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
Aren't we all? That little grief edge really adds to the story...

Really too bad Draco wasn't right in his first assumption about Snape and Hermione... *pouts*Maybe a threesome later? *hopefull smile*
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
*snerk* Herms should be so lucky...

Liking it so far. This is actually the first D/H story I've read. Should be interesting.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
Hah! Well, I hope you enjoy it. It's the first D/H I've written.

Lovely story so far :) I hope you update soon. Thank you for writing
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
Thanks. I'm trying...lots of stories pending.

How can you stop there, you tease?!?You have such a nice feel for descriptive details, like the sense that he needs to hold his face on, and the one eye that won't quite reopen. A successful mix of humor with building the anticipation!Please, please, update again soon.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
Snerk...I am, aren't I? Hee hee hee. I've gotta work more on "Heirs of Slytherin" right now, though. People have been waiting a lot longer for that. And "Fair Ex" too--I left Snape and Herms in an even more evil position.
Oh my! Way to leave us hanging! Im glad I found this website, as I was dying on Ashwinder.Love the story, can't wait until you update next!
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
Heh, well, I hope you won't have to wait long. Lots of stories pending, and naturally lots of other stuff too!
YES IT IS WORTH THE WORK!!! I LOVE IT!!!
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
*grin* Thanks. For a while there no one seemed to be reading it, but I've been assured there's interest in the story. Now if I just had time to work on it...
You definitely have Snarky Draco down pat! I can't wait for him to fall and hard...hmmm should be reallly interesting...
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Looking and Seeing)
Snark seems to be one of my specialties. :)
