A moment of inattention transports Hermione to one year after the fall of the Dark Lord, but with no way back to her own time. Her only clue is a small object that she finds between worlds. She enlists the aid of a young Professor… but he has his own agenda. EWE

Hello, dear readers and fellow writers!
I read and write in the Inuyasha and Harry Potter fandoms, preferring non-canon pairing that involve bad boys of the fandoms: Sesshomaru, Snape, Draco, Lucius (mmm, Slytherins), and Hermione is the Potterverse bicycle.
Completed fics in the Potterverse:
* The Devil is in the Details (HG/SS - M for language and violence - and I'm happy to mention that it was a Featured Story at TPP for 2/08 and nominated for the SS/HG awards Round Two)
* For All Intents and Purposes (HG/SS - M for language and violence)
Completed fics for Inuyasha:
* Darkness (Kag/Sessh - NC17 for smut - won multiple awards at IY groups)
* To Shed a Little Light (Kag/Sessh - NC17 for smut- won multiple awards at IY groups)
* Quadrangle (Kag/Sessh - NC17 for smut)
* Moving Pictures (Sessh/OC - NC17 for smut)
* Don't Know What You've Got 'til it's Gone (Kag/IY - NC17 for smut - and this was my first fic ever, so be warned)
WIP:
* Cereal Box Romance (Kag/Sessh - Inuyasha - updated irregularly- won multiple awards at IY groups)
* Primal (Kag/Sessh - Inuyasha - pretty much abandoned)
Upcoming projects? Yes. I've got a one-shot HG/SS cooking that I may never finish or post, and I've started a multi-chapter HG/SS as well. I will probably write a number of the chapters before I start posting, so you probably won't see anything new for a while.
Reviews for For All Intents and Purposes
I am glad that Remus didn't just run away when Hermione was hurt. Then she would have been more of a distraction than a help in reaquiring the Starglass. Even though Hermione knows not to talk about the future, I am sure that lots of her actions will affect the future. For one thing, if she tries to help Remus and if Remus and Severus become less hostile, I am sure that will change future events.
I am so happy that Severus if finally seeing Hermione as a desirable woman! At least now he's on the road to thinking Hermione could be more important than Lily. I look forward to future chapters!
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
As difficult as life must be for Lupin, I think he would still be try to help someone he had had a hand in hurting. Besides, what Severus assumes to be true and what is actually true might be two different things...
You are right on all accounts - Hermione's actions will ripple through time in ways she cannot imagine.
Ooh great chapter. I love all the little battle's Severus is having in his head. Can't wait for the next one. :)
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Poor, conflicted, hormonal Severus. I wish I could make it all better for him. Well, I suppose I could, but where would be the fun in that?
Can't wait for the next update. I'm sure when this is finished I'll be adding it to my faves list. A work of art my dear. You should be proud!
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Thanks so much! I'm tickled that you think so highly of it!

That was really something. And poor Severus. I really hope that he and Hermione can make something of this relationship. I hope for a happy ending.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
It will certainly be a struggle for them. I don't see Hermione cheating on Ron, and Severus is still obsessed with Lily. However, I live for happy endings - someone should get one, right?
It makes sense that an out of work werewolf would have to resort to crime occasionally to make ends meet. Hermione certainly walks a fine line and now she has a new scar. As for why Severus suddenly got hinky, I figured it had something to do with it being cold and nipples. Ha!
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
I thought so, too - how else would he make money?
The stretching scene came out of personal experience. I exercise a lot, but at work, I'm sitting for long periods of time, so I'm always stretching. One of my guy friends commented on it - teasingly, of course - and it came in handy here. Besides nipplege, I think it has something to do with the arching back, elongating neck, and thrust-forward breasts.

Oooo, Lupin stole it. Very interesting twist. Well, I have to say - I can't actually see to what end this story tends, and I find that somewhat exciting. Mostly, I'm just enjoying the story. Thank you for writing!
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
So Severus assumes! I'm glad that you can't predict the ending - then what would be the fun in reading it? Thanks for reading and reviewing!
Really good chapter!
the scene witn Draco as a baby was priceless.
I never woul have guessed that Lupin was the thief. I don't envy Hermione the task of keeping both Severus and Remus reasonnable...
update soon please
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Yes, she will have her hands full with the both of them. Lupin is a sweetie, but Severus makes an art of being difficult.

Oi, what twist! I just love that Lupin was the one who stole the Starglass. He is going to stick his interfering nose right in it.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Oh, but did he? Or was he at the wrong place at the wrong time? :)

Great chapter. I can't see either of them doing anything about these desires that are humming along in their subconcious, for so many reasons, but the tension is fantastic.
Also, I actually felt cold, like I was sitting in a doorway all night too! Good job.

Nothing like some good, old-fashioned UST, huh? Thanks!
Great chapter, I loved the tention that was brought to the forefront.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Thanks! I hope you really like tension, because there is lots more to come. :)

It's clear that Hermione and Severus are disconcerting one another; neither thought to cast a Warming Charm at all, did they? I mean, honestly, are they magical or muggle?*sigh* Men are such fragile, complicated creatures, aren't they? There's an Ani DiFranco song that talks about that, a bit ironically, naturally, but it's appropriate to my frame of mind.
Anyway. Continue, please.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Actually, they had cast several Warming Charms that did little good. It's in the first paragraph of that scene. ;)
Severus is more complicated than most - and damaged. Hermione certainly has her work cut out for her.
Response from curikitten (Reviewer)
Ah, well, then they were disconcerting me so that I failed to read for comprehension. Whenever we did standardized tests in school, my verbal/reading/writing scores were always in the 99th percentile, but my comprehension scores were always slightly lower than all the other factors.
Clearly things haven't much changed.
And -- isn't that kind of the beauty of Severus? He's so real, so complex and... yeah. And I finally figured out that my thoughts about Draco's future/past relationship with Hermione got addressed in the summary at AFF. Fascinating stuff. I love Slytherins. Slytherei? Hmm. Well, I do. The shadier, the better. Even Volvo Mart has a certain charm. In select settings.
But Severus appeals to the U.S. citizen in me -- champion of underdogs and all that. Even if I don't believe in Alan Rickman as Severus. Ah, well. Back to that Arsenic fic I'm reading.

Great chapter! Your writing is superb!
I am enjoying your creative plot and your witty sense of humour! I found myself chuckling quite a few times over Severus's introspectives...very amusing and so in character!
Well done!
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Thanks so much! I'm tickled that it is amusing you. It's hard for me to tell after a while.

Such great twists and turns! That's why I love this story so much. I can't wait to see what's coming with Lupin and our favorite couple.

I love to keep you guys guessing. I've had a few guesses come rather close to the mark, but hopefully I've got a few tricks up my sleeve that the readers don't expect.

The sexual tension is being played out nicely. I love it- it's the best part of the HG/SS stories I think, drawing out the tension. I really do love this back in time story. They are my favorite of ALL the HG/SS ships. Great chapter, nice cliffie.

Funny - most reviewers that mention time-travel fics say that they don't like them. Glad you do and are enjoying this one!
Response from livvy6 (Reviewer)
That is so strange to me! I mean, we know about adult Snape from JKR but we really don't know a whole lot of the young Snape. I think there are so many avenues to explore with the young Snape. Well, you definately have a fan with me, so write on!

I'm totally loving this story. Can't wait for an update!
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Glad you like it! Update coming...
I loved the latest chapter - and baby Draco - that was too funny. I loved how Hermione handled him. I also loved the way both Severus and Hermione got dressed up - they sounded fantastic.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
They needed to see each other properly cleaned up, don't you think? I know that they looked fantastic in my imagination. ;)
That was sadly sweet. Severus really doesn't think much of himself, and Hermione is really doing a number on him, I believe. Dare I hope for a happy ending?
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
He doesn't - and he needs the kind of friendship that Hermione can give him. I firmly believe in happy endings. ;)
I can see that since Hermione already knows the reality of Severus's character, she is able to accept him as he is, negative comments and demeanor and all. This of course keeps Severus wrong footed. It is quite amusing to see him not in total control. I like the way you are building the attraction between the two. Hermione's stepping in to discipline Draco was great. I know that is what I would do under similar circumstances.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Exactly - he expects people to treat him a certain way. Hermione already has a firm basis for respect, and he has never had someone respect him right away. I'm glad that you like the building relationship - I thought it should go slowly.

So what, is Lucius Miroku then? All the talk about having an heir, not to mention the (bad) relationship advice he seems to enjoy giving Severus makes it almost fit... ^_^
Draco's part was cute. The grown-up version would be horrified to find out that he had, as a toddler, taken such an instant shine to Granger after being scolded by her.
Really enjoying this fic! ^_^
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
HA! I hadn't intended that, but yes - it fits, doesn't it?
He would - and to find out that he lisped his Rs and pooped while sitting on her lap...

I am so glad that I finally sit down and took the time to read this. I have been seeing it being updated, but have not had time lately to really read anything. I cannot wait to read more of this.

I'm excited. We're building up to something (if the looks Severus has been giving Hermione are any indication) and baby Draco was just...adorable. It was a great chapter and I look forward to the next.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Heh... we're building up to something, alright. But they have a few obstacles to pass before they can truly come to terms with things.

This chapter was so much fun to read! I enjoyed your description of young Draco and your characterization of Malfoy is very accurate!
Your plot continues to be very intriguing...can't wait to find out more!
Well done :)

Thank you! I like Lucius, even if he can be a jerk. I'll read the occasional LM/HG, once in a while.

Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Even Severus must have been a cute baby. Can you imagine pudgy white cheeks and sparkly black eyes? I bet he was the type to put everything in his mouth.

Hermione certainly nailed it on the head with Draco. I loved Malfoy's careless rudeness, it seemed to be a logical step for the man he would become.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
It was interesting writing Malfoy's interactions with Hermione - but him not knowing that she was Muggleborn. He would certainly treat them differently if he knew. He is horribly self-centered, isn't he?
