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.

Aaah, a little baby draco, how cute (and obnoxious already)
Cant wait for more
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Yes - but he gets no proper discipline. Raised by a house-elf that can't punish him, there are no boundaries in his life. If only someone would take him in hand...

LOL one should see more of toddler Draco in fanfic!

He really is too cute of an opportunity to pass up. :)

another terrific chapter! i loved the visual of the two of them on their way to tea, all gussied up. the scene with baby draco was absolutely priceless, as were hermione's imaginings of her tips to help their future selves accomplish all their goals. i really look forward to finding out what they'll find in crawley besides doughnuts!

It must be difficult know that you can actually change some of the terrible events to come, but knowing that if you tried, something worse could happen.

Is it too much to hope that Draco will now have had an inexplicable respect for and desire to please Hermione in the future? Because, well, that would be lovely and save many people a great deal of heartache. Poor little Malfoys.

Hope is good for the soul. ;) You'll see. :)

Oh, the blackmail opportunities lost. Well, too bad Hermione couldn't take a picture then plant it for her own student-self to use as comfort when Draco is particularly rude.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
There is nothing stopping her from putting the memory into a penseive and planting that! But yes, I'm sure a teen Hermione would have made good use of such a photo.

I am quite excited that Hermione did meet a young Draco. Perhaps her comments to Severus will make Draco turn into a better man in the future? Well, if she ever talks to her friends in the future about her trips to the past, she could always mention the incident. I'm sure they would all have a chuckle.
I am glad that Severus and Hermione are feeling more comfortable together. I am not sure when Hermione might have feelings for him and act on them, but I am looking forward to that time. Perhaps if she decides she'll be stuck in the past she won't worry about Ron.
Anyway, I quite look forward to the next chapter. Please keep them coming!
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
We haven't seen the last of Draco in this fic. ;)
They are getting more comfortable, but when the romantic feelings start, which they will soon, then they will have a whole new set of issues to resolve. Oh, the UST and angst!

Hermione and bouncing baby Draco! Hilarious! Now THAT is an image that will live in my mind a LONG time! Oh, I loved that! And I do wonder just how much what Hermione is doing "will" change time. You most definitely have placed many questions into my mind that I can't wait to see you answer---please do update again soon!
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
I'm happy to keep you guessing - I would hate for my plot to be too predictable! Draco would be an adorable baby, wouldn't he?

very good chapter, loved seeing the softer side of Severus, even though he had to be alone to give in to it. And Draco- oh my! that was hilarious. Very good!

Thanks! Severus is (like Shrek) very much an onion. Lots of layers, stinky personality, but delicious when prepared properly. ;)

Liked the latest chapter - the theft - oh how that complicates things and now adding Malfoy back into the mix - this is getting more and more complicated. I cannot wait to see where you take it
I loved the kindness shown to Lupin and the chapter's ending was neat. I look forward to the next chapter.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
I feel bad for Lupin - he had a hard for a number of years.
Response from sinbad (Reviewer)
I agree, J.K.R. shafted him too.

Hmmmm a rather not-to-subtle hint from Luna. Keep up the good work.
Getting very interesting....I love how you are portraying Severus.
I don't take liberties with canon, I run it over to suit my needs lol! Wonderful! I'm playing catch-up so I may be reviewing out of order, sorry about that. I've been in the hospital for the past 16 days. Uggh...
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Sorry to hear it! Hope you are feeling better.
The fun thing about fanfic is that everything happens they way you want it to. ;) When the characters cooperate, that is. >.<
So, now the Shikon, I mean the Starglass has been stolen by the baddie and the hunt begins. Severus is beginning to figure out that she is obviously not who she says she is and is not from where she says she is from. Going to Malfoy's for tea should be interesting. I am trying to figure out the correlation there, although maybe there isn't one.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Yeah, well the Starglass won't automatically give the baddie any extra appendages or fangs. Nor does Hermione have to purify it. So there.
I don't think I had any correlation in mind with this next chapter - I just happen to like Lucius (even if I wrote him as a jerk). Also, one of the scenes in the next chapter is a bow to my beta, as is Luna's involvement in the story. It just occured to me that Madam could be Kaede, but I hadn't consciously intended that. Hm. I suppose there might be a correlation in there somewhere. I will think on it.
oh! the starglass, stolen! oopsy! maybe hermione should have seen that coming, but i guess it's understandable that it didn't occur to her. i absolutely adored this chapter, with hermione having these feelings about severus that she doesn't want to examine too closely. and i love your young severus, who seems so human, and yet still true to his older self as presented in the novels. i'm very interested to see what happens next. and i'm all for playing fast and loose with canon, especially when you are writing such a great story!
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
People tend to assume that things will happen to other people, not themselves. She was thinking in terms of show up, get picture taken, then do some planning. She was a bit distracted by someone, as well. ;)
You lost me with chapter 6. I'm of the "it already happened" school when it comes to time-turner stories. What was with that picture, I'm confused, really.I'll keep reading.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
Ah - I did some reading on the Grandfather Paradox as I was writing this (you know, if you go back in time and kill your own grandfather, will you cease to exist?). This fic is assuming the Relative Timelines theory (as opposed to the Parallel Universe theory), where there is no permanently written timeline, and if one goes back in time, there is nothing to force events to occur as they had before.
The photo of her and Severus in the past, but a past that she had yet to visit, implies that she does returned to the past to take the photo. She would want to return to the past to try to avoid changing anything else. If you are interested, look at the Wikipedia entry on the Grandfather Paradox for more information.
In short - this AU of mine allows for a fluid timeline, in which a character can go back in time and change events, which will propogate down the timeline. The timetraveler herself will retain her memories of the timeline she lived.
By all means, take all liberties you feel like taking. Excellent writing, interesting plot. No idea what comes next... goody.
Response from rhiannonofthemoon (Author of For All Intents and Purposes)
I will ;)
Glad you like it!
Well I was wrong on the timeline, but I hope I am not wrong in thinking this is snape.
I am intrigued! A portrait of Severus as a young man--quite nice! And the cat lady is just a wonderful addition. Can't wait to see what happens!
Very nice. I love the severus-hermione interactions. Cant wait for more
This is so very well written! So curious to see if Hermione will tell Snape she is from the future!Can't wait for more!
This is great! 
Him knowing she was there the whole time, even though she was being so careful to cast spells to check for wards, was perfect. 
Liked that she acknowlegded that he 'looked nice' (especially since no one else had done so before), 
and him comparing the staff meetings to Death Eater gatherings. 
I loved her revenge, and how it didn't go quite according to plan. 
Looking forward to the next. 
I must say I love Hermione's revenge. It was quite cute.
I am glad that Severus and Hermione are getting along much better. Since she left him on hold for a day, he now knows that he missed her.I wonder when McGonagall starts treating Severus more like an adult. At least she seemed happy that he had a date. Did she think he was homosexual or just that he wasn't pleasant enough for company?Anyway, I look forward to hearing more about the Starglass and the relationship between Hermione and Severus.
Wonderful, wonderful! I am enjoying your story, very much!! Your characterizations of both Snape and Hermione are brilliant with the added fun of all the cats, each with their eccentricities! Your story has definitely made me smile! :)
