Alan Rickman obsessed ex-civil servant now living the good life in France. I only write in the good ship SS/HG. However, if you think that the only way these two can get together is by some sort of forced marriage, 'binding' or whatever, don't read my stories. You will be disappointed.
Reviews for Three Blooms in the Cauldron
I'm really loving this story and am very eager to see where it is going.
I'll admit that as disturbing as I find Ron's requirements that Hermione agreed to and has fulfilled, I'm also disturbed by her seeming lack of affection for her children, especially the youngest four that are unnamed and that she casually wished she'd never had. I can understand that intellectually, but most people feel love for even unwanted children once they're actually born. Take that with a grain of salt. You know where you're going with this, mystery author, and so far you have me totally hooked!
Response from melusin (Author of Three Blooms in the Cauldron)
Thanks.
I'm not trying to say that she doesn't love the children, but she most certainly resents them - and the fact that Ron has virtually shirked his responsibilitites towards them as well, means she has to cope on her own - She is undoubtedly depressed, exhausted and unfulfilled. I don't think she would give the impression of being a happy and contented mother.
Thanks again for your interest - I hope you keep reading.
OH no! I want to know what happened to make him modify her memory!!! PLease update soon!Livvy

Thanks for the review.
All will be revealed soon.
Gosh this is a brilliant chapter, lots of detail and fast paced. Really enjoyed Hermione telling Severus to prove he can look after himself.
Response from melusin (Author of Three Blooms in the Cauldron)
Thanks - i wanted it to be fast as these are Hermione's memories rushing back. More of Hermione's efforts to help a reluctant patient next chapter.
Wow, what a hectic chapter!
I liked how Hermione get in headmaster's private rooms.
Why Severus Obliviated Hermione? She seems to be spending a lot of time with Severus when he survived. What will happen in the next chapte?
And more important thing will he make everything right?
Response from melusin (Author of Three Blooms in the Cauldron)
Thanks
I wanted it to be like tumbling thoughts- so glad you thought it was hectic.
you'll have to keep reading to find out the rest.
I really like your story it was an enjoyable read. Really hope you will finish it. Hate that Hermione is in the situation that she is in but it does happen in real life. Young women have had this type of situation happen since time in memorial. Well illustrated keep writing

Three chapters in and I truly despise Ronald Weasley, Kingsley Shacklebolt, and Lucius Malfoy. Hopefully Snape can shake things up a bit.
Response from melusin (Author of Three Blooms in the Cauldron)
We shall see.
Thanks for reviewing.
I've only started reading today... But please update soon! You have captivated me with these three chapters... Poor Hermione... I feel so bad for her with so many children... She doesn't deserve to be a frumpy housewife! Update soon!
Response from melusin (Author of Three Blooms in the Cauldron)
Thank you.
The next chapter is almost ready for beta.
OMG! Poor Hermione. I hope Severus can help her break this damn curse and I hope he isn't frightened off by all her children. I think I may be angry at him though, what the hell did he modify her memory for! Okay, as you can tell I am anxiously awaiting the next chapter! Great Job, Mystery Author.

Wow - this is NOT what I expected - and I mean that in a good way. Poor - poor Hermione. I am sure though that Severus is going to do something about this sad situation. I can't wait to see what happens next!

WTF? She had to have Ron's 7 (+1) kids but he STILL didn't keep his part of the bargain and be faithful? My indignation knows no bounds!It's clear that Severus will try to help her break out of the nasty situation she's in. Hope they help Luna too--she seems in a bad way as well.

Oh my god! Hermione life has been a truly living hell!
You really made my heart ache for Hermione's dull life. To have give up your career dreams and do what you in-loves would like you to do. Its a hell!
And poor Luna!
Now when Severus is back in the picture, I'm hoping that he chance the past so Luna can get Neville and Hermione get Severus. And Won-Won can go in his La-La land!

Curiouser and curiouser! Can't wait to see if Hermione will be able to escape from her life. Damn Ron! Making her have that many babies! I would have hexed his bollocks off before I'd let my husband do that to me! GRRR.Livvy
Response from melusin (Author of Three Blooms in the Cauldron)
Me too - then that's what Ron wanted and he was stuck with Hermione through no fault of his own.
We shall see what Severus has up his sleeve.

Gosh I'm intrigued. Wonder what memories Severus modified and how remembering them now will help Hermione out of the dulldrums.

How indeed.

Oh god, my stomach hurts when I read Harry's and Ginny's scene. And not forget Hermione's and Ron's scene. And Luna was hilarious too. Wait a minute, Draco's a guy! You wrote a good scene how the boys acted when they heard that Draco's guy. Like they would get it too.
Just kill Ron, Hermione!
O mystery author! Please don't sacrifice Hermione's dreams!
Well, you started the chapter with the explosition. This must be first time when a cauldron exploited under vigilent eye of the know-it-all.
I absolutely loved when you hexed Ron's nuts! He's a really coward when he can't admit to Hermione that he's with La-La again. I hope that Hermione can find some way to get rid of her betrothal contract with Ron.
I was fasnicated about the girls' poems, especially Ginny's, it was super funny!
I just got an idea that Hermione managed to get a several betrothal contracts and the other wizard(s) show up in next chapter. Am I right?

Thank you - well that's what the prompt calls for.

Oh dear, it's so sad and tragic. I'm relieved that you gave us some hope for things to come before the end of this chapter, and I'm eager to see what happens next!
