*NOW COMPLETE* How in the world does Hogwarts come to be doing a performance of The Phantom of the Opera? And just why is Snape so pissed about it?

I have completed my Master's of Science degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and want to focus on serving the LGBTQIA community and the Alt/Kink/Poly communities in my work. I used to be a poker tournament director and floorperson at the world famous Binion's Gambling Hall in downtown Las Vegas. Before that, I was high school Spanish and Theatre teacher. I am happily married and (thankfully) have NO kids. I have an original short story published here: http://www.elm-books.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=R01%2DChristmasBadGirls under my penname, Jess Alynn. Thanks for taking a chance and reading my stories! :)
Oh, and check out the "trailer" for Phantom of Hogwarts that xtahsee made for me on youtube! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k63yCE9sslY

LOL Don't wear yourself out hitting refresh, darlin. It'll be a couple of weeks at the least. ;) Thanks so much for your continued support! :)
Yea! Another great chapter! What a great way to start off the day!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Glad I could help start your day off right! LOL Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Yay! An update! They're always such a treat. A wonderful chapter, as always! Man, Hermione's mom...*rolls eyes* what is she gonna do with her? She knew EXACTLY what she was doing, that big flirt.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*snerk* What? You don't believe Hermione's mum meant no harm? *giggles* Glad you're still enjoying it, and thanks as always for reviewing! :)
Hip Hop Hooray! Hip Hip Hooray! Another wonderful chapter. I loved Minerva's compliment and how poor Sev still doesn't know how to receive it. This is another fab chapter. I can't wait for more. Every update leaves us wanting for the next installment. Love it!!!!! Hugs, Muggle Mom
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Yeah, Snape's still not used to being appreciated. We'll just have to get him used to it, won't we? LOL Glad you're still enjoying it, and thanks so much for reviewing! :)
*kneadkneadkneadknead...curls up in a happy circle, snuggling down into Good_Witch's prose, about damned time there was another chapter to enjoy*~Lotmthe insatiable, but temporarily happy
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Yeah, but you know the PAPER OF DOOM kept me busy and kept my muse under lock and key. I'll be writing more soon, darlin, so you'll get it then. *hugs*

Very domesticated interlude, sorting out the contractors, and then onto business. Add a little intimacy to create a great chapter.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*beams* I had hoped the peace and comfort of being together in what is really home woudl come through. Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks so much for reviewing! :)
SQUEE!! An update yay!! Loved Mrs. Granger's indignation, hehe, and the Severus and Hermione got some alone time.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Along time is always good. *snerk* Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks so much for reviewing! :)
I am so happy to see the update! This is such a magnificient fic, and it is a trill to read! I loved Hermione's "sneekingness" to get her chance to go to Spinners End without making anyone suspect (I don't count Ginny and Minerva:-)) a thing:-) I also loved Minervas words that Dumstrang migth be good with fantastic actors, but they didn't have Severus, and I do of course totally agree with her:-))Update again soon, but do know that I will wait for however long it takes to read the next chapter:-))
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*beams* I'm glad you're enjoying it enough that you'll wait however long it takes, but I cedrtainly hope to be able to get much more done before Portus. LOL Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Lovely chapter! So much happening, and they're so so so in love!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*beams* Yeah, I love the domestic bliss and the stupid in love parts. But that's just 'cause I am lucky enough to have that in RL too. Thanks as always for reviewing! :)
I like that Hermione's mother was so quickly embarrassed, though her explanation still seems fishy compared to her behavior. Or maybe it's just me. I am rather like Severus- no touching. My DH is the same way. Holding hands in public is something that is limited only to when we are really drunk and holding each other up. LOL. Having her mother claim it was just her friendliness doesn't seem to quite fit. Oh, I can't wait for the performance! Finally we are getting there!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
LOL See, that's where we're different. We don't DO PDAs so much, but we have been known to. *snerk* And, I've known huge flirts and uber-touchy-feely folk like her before, and it's all harmless, if disconcerting to some. ;) Thanks as always for reviewing! :)
How in the world did I miss this update? *looks around confused*..Poor Sev, that is the most creepy thing to have your girlfriends mother hitting on you LOL. As usual my dear GW you did a wonderful job. I look forward to the next update.

Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
I don't know, darlin, but I'm glad you found it after all! :) Thanks as always for reviewing. :)
I thought as soon as Severus started carving that he was making a cameo pendant for her. Now that he's got ribbon and clasp Im sure. Oh BTW Ginny is REALLY being a CUNT! She should beat her ass!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*ding ding ding* Points to your House, for guessing correctly! LOL As for Ginny... don't dispose of her just yet! *shifty eyes and wicked grin* Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Damn, all the kids at Hogwarts are horny little brats, eh? LOL!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
As are most teens everywhere, in my experience. LOL ;) Thanks for reviewing! :)
I like this Alternate Universe. Phantom is by far one of my favorite musicals, next to Sweeney Todd, but that wouldn't do here...
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Ooohh!! I love Sweeney Todd too! :) I swear though, watching the latest movie was like a HP reunion reel, what with Rickman, Spall, and Bonham-Carter all in it. LOL I'm glad you're enjoying it, and thanks again for reviewing! :)
ANGST! ARRGH! I FEEL LIKE I'M 17 AGAIN!!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*sprofle* Yeah, well, I taught high school, so I was immersed in it for years. LOL Thanks for reviewing! :)
I like this because it isn't the usual "fight for our lives" routine, but I'm a little confused. The story started out with a 1st pers POV from Snape, and is now 3rd person. Was this a change in your writing technique, or was it intetional? Very good take on characters' perspectives. Good.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
It is actually on purpose. It started with a 1st person Snape's POV, then the next chapter was 3rd person Hermione's POV (mainly), then back to Snape's, then back to Hermione's, alternating chapters. Then, I began the alternating POVs within the chapters (which you'll see). Eventually, the alternation stops, and it all becomes told from 3rd person omniscient. It was done that way to illustrate the progression from Snape being introverted and lonely/alone to him eventually opening up and becoming a whole person who has interactions and connections and relationships with others, like Hermione has had the whole time. Convoluted perhaps, but it was intentional. LOL Glad you're enjoying it so far, and welcome to the story! Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
AHAHAHAHAhahaha! *Squeals with laughter* Harry just JIZZED in his pants! And I LOVED the whole "Naked Granny" bit he did so he wouldn't have to beat it! Ah, well, I suppose the "Horse Defiler" has needs too! *Gasps*
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
LOL Wow! I'm glad you're enjoying it so much. ;) Thanks agin for reviewing! :)
I had several chapter to catch up on. Unfortunaly I do not have as much free time on my hand as I use to (and it wasn't alot to begin with). I am so excited for Severus with this potental new business. I love this story, but I think I might need to review some of the pervious chapters because I am starting to forget some of the details again. 
I can't wait for more, and hopefully I will be able to read it right away.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Well, I'm glad you're back and I feel flattered to rate some of your little free time! *beams* Glad you're still enjoying it, and thanks as always for reviewing! :)
dear friend i am waiting to see what happens next i am really enjoying this story and can say its one of my favorites
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Thank you so much for the continued support. I'm writing when I can (classes and work manage to take up so much time! *sigh*). :)
re-read the whole story again.... lol still love it! I think this is the 6th time i've done so.
Hope you will be able to update soon.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Creeping Emperor penguins! That's impressive, my dear. I got this review notification while I was online searching SCOPUS for articles for my Cognitive Psychology paper on second language acquisition. *crickets* Yeah, you get the idea... LOL I'm writing when I can. Thanks for the continued support! :)
Response from chyara (Reviewer)
well damn real life! If only we all could just stay home and not have to study/work.
WOOO!!!An update!!Thanks for this *runs around in circles in excitement*Can't wait for the next chapter, and, by the way, I'm totally loving the adoration of Snape by Mrs. Granger. And Hermione's reactions to it etc. lol. Awesome writing Good_Witch!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Why thank you! I'm so glad you're enjoying it. And thanks so much for reviewing! :)

Oh my god -- Pern!!! fabulous, absolutely fabulous :DMy sole niggle was to do with the 'text' on the posters in ch 62, and that's solely because it's known as 'copy', 'lettering' or 'stencilling' in the publishing profession, and even then I'm talking book covers rather than posters *iz geek, will comment*. If I were describing it, the title is lettering/stencilling and the cast, director, review, etc. counts as 'copy'. (God, I should not be explaining publishing technical terms at 1am!!!)The performance was stellar, everyone's stunning, and Severus...dear Severus...finally, he feels he belongs. Somewhat ironic given he's leaving so soon!I LOL'd over Dione. Hermione would/will be horrified at her mother's antics, but *giggles* Severus sure thought of a way to get rid of her ;)FANTASTIC!!!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*beams* Wow! I love that you enjoyed it so much! LOL As for "text," I was merely referring to the written words, and didn't want to write "words" there, so I wrote "text" instead. None of them would know what the true terms were anyway, so it's verisimilitude. *shifty eyes* Yeah, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. *snerk* Thanks so much for the continued support! :)

Oh my goodness.... WOW. I have to admit that I was actually tearful during this. During PoNR I could actually *feel* myself welling up just from your description. I could *see* it in my head as I read along. I was overwhelmed with how incredible your descriptions were.... and Oh my goodness when you described Severus' performance at the end... the splayed hands, the stiffness, the rocking.... I swear I was back watching Ramin perfoming. 
Fantastic, as ever.On a separate point, I can't believe it's been so long since I spoke to you. Between my email packing up, health stuff and what have you.... RL sucks major bottom! I caught up on your LJ finally, and I'm sorry you've been having such a cruddy time with health and general other not so good RL stuff - I hope you're feeling a lot better now, and continue to improve even more. Surgery is never fun, even when you get into double figures *looks aggrieved*.Anyway... Thank you, once again, for your awesome work on PoH. It may take me a while to catch up, but I still keep on loving it. :) Thank you, thank you, thank you... I adore your Severus.

*squees and glomps you* HI!!!!!!!!!!!! I've missed you!!! *more glompage* You know I always love when I can affect someone in such a way through what I write, so you just made my morning. *beams* As for RL, it's better now, just busy. I have to get off my bum and post about my cruise and my folks' visit soon. But, tonight we're going to see Spamalot, so I doubt it'll be today. I AM off tomorrow, so hopefully then... Anyway, I'm sorry you've been getting bitchslapped by RL too. *pets

Ohhh glompage! *glomps you back* I'm so happy I could make your morning. *boggles and bruxes under the pettage* I didn't realise you had ratties until I was checking out your photos hehe. <:3 )~~~~Well hopefully I shal be visiting the US relatively soonish and I want to go see PoTO with my friend (she's never seen or heard the whole show but is rather interested after seeing clips from the movie - the section from Insolent Boy through to the end of MoTN and PoNR prior to the unmasking hehe). Would be in the middle of the States but determined to head to either Broadway or Vegas to see it, if at all possible lol. Anyway can't wait for the LJ updates and definitely can't wait for the next chapter here.
