*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
Reviews for Phantom of Hogwarts
At last, the performance is in sight, and so is Hermione & Severus' future. I'm as curious as anyone else to find out what Beauxbatons & Durmstrang have prepared for their contest entries. 
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Yeah, we're getting there... LOL Thanks as always for reviewing! :)
I heart the moment in the library! It's so sweet, making you pity them so much for having to be apart! I hope the next chapter comes out soon!! Merry Christmas!!P.S. The next chapter would be like an amazing Christmas gift!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Um, I'm so sorry I never got this review earlier! I honestly didn't know it was here. *blush* So glad you enjoyed it, and I'm sorry I didn't reply earlier. Thanks as always for reviewing! :)
Unbelievable... I think Albus is on to them, then again I think the old coot might have set it up that way the first place. It's incredible writing it would be a page turner -if it were printed- so I guess it's a mouse scroller :) Please keep it coming I visit your LJ almost daily hoping for updates! You're truly a gift to brighten my day, enjoy your holidays.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
A mouse-scroller!! LOL!!! Oh, that's great. *beams* I'm so glad you're enjoying it. Thanks so much for reviewing! :) And festive ChristmaHanuKwanzaakkuh Yulestice to you. :)

*skritches the Lotm-kitty* ;)
Glad to see an update! I have a feeling something very bad is going to happen at the the April 3rd performance, but I haven't decided what exactly. You've set things up nicely for Dumbledore to mess-up because of plotting from someone like Draco for the chandelier to actually hit Hermione when it crashes. But I'm not certain that you won't just have their relationship exposed suddenly instead. Either way, I'd like to see what you've got planned. :)Merry Xmas!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
You have a bad feeling about things? Gee, the angst and UST aren't enough, you're expecting tragedy, too? LOL I know, I have set that sort of thing up before, so it's my own fault. *snerk* Thanks as always for reviewing! :)
And a festive ChristmaHanuKwanzaakkuh Yulestice to you!
I just read the last chapters. Great as always.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Yay! Glad you're still enjoying it. Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Good grief... four more months? I don't think my heart will stand the strain! But it's a good chapter. More, please! More, more, more!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Well, only one month till the performance, then three more after that until the end of the school year. But, I doubt the four months to come will take as long chapter-wise as the four months that have already gone by. LOL Really, the past few chapters have covered several days to a week each time! *hides* ;) Thanks as always for reviewing! :)
OH!!! I love the kisses!! Sweet, sweet kisses!! YAY!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
LOL!!! Yeah, The Neville/Parvati kiss was way too fun to write. And the Snape/Hermione kiss was so bittersweet... *sigh* Thanks for reviewing! :)
Faboo! I feel so bad for both of them. The end of the year just cna't come soon enough for those two. And way to go Neville! Always knew he had it in him! The play is shaping up very nicely, and I can't wait for the performance. Well done; now I'll go back to drooling for more, until you update again!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Way to go, Neville, indeed! LOL I had so much fun with him in the chapter. Glad you're still enjoying it, and thanks as always for reviewing! :)
Yippeee!!!! I'm all caught up. I'm sorry I didn't leave a review for each chapter like I normally do when starting a new story..
This is wonderfully written and I think Neville is my favorite character. LOVE NEVILLE!! He's so sweet and his maturity is so much further along than the other boys. The others seem to be getting better.
Ginny is great.. Oh there is so much to write on and I'm not the best to express.
I enjoy this a bunch. Hubby (medicdaddy1994) introduced this story to me. Glad he did. Have to feel sad for him though. He can't remember where he left off and he works so much he doesn't have the time to catch up yet.
waiting for more. p
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Wow! Please extend my thanks to your hubby for sending you this way. *beams* Ginny has long been my favourite character to write (shameless self-insertion and all that) but Neville is fast becoming my guilty pleasure. LOL As for hubby not knowing where he left off, do the summaries help jog his memory? At any rate, I'm glad you've been enjoying it, and thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Response from pickles (Reviewer)
I don't think it will help. He started reading your story on Ashwinder then got very busy. He's a bit upset he can't remember. I think I might just start printing the chapters off for him. I might need to buy a few ink cartridges ... maybe it would be cheaper to get him a lap top.. nah he just bought a 32 in tv.. mmm maybe a script to webtv.. he could kickback in the recliner and read. ;0)
Good for you, Neville! Ok........Can't wait to read more.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Can't wait to write more. Thanks for reviewing! :)
Good_Witch,Please update soon! I'm dying (well really anxious) to know what happens. There's not much quality fan fic in the world and your story is, in my opinion, a great one. It would be terrible if you abandoned it now. I relish the fact that I get to enjoy a tumultious relationship between H&S with out being submitted to some imbiciles version of the 6th or 7th book. Plus I get to see Snape as one of my all time favorite male protagonisits/antagonisits, The Phantom, it's wonderful. Thank you so much for writing this story.Elen
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Elen, you're very kind, thank you. *beams* I'm NEVER abandoning this fic. There are just so many things that have been keeping me from being able to write lately. I have plans for the weekend, let me tell you. *rolls eyes* I just posted a huge update on my LJ about all the stuff that's been in my way lately: http://pern-dragon.livejournal.com/ Feel free to check there for update info. I'm so glad you've enjoyed PoH so far, and thank you so much for a lovely review. :)
WAY TO GO, NEVILLE!!!I always knew that guy had a lots of potential. Is he dating Lavendar here or has my memory betrayed me?Oh, it made me sad first that SS and HG had to cool off a bit, but the ending made me grin like an idiot!I think it is impossible for you to write a bad chapter, they are all so great! Can't wait to read more!!!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Nope, Neville's good and single. Remember, he, Dean, Lavender, Parvati, and Hermione banded together in Hogsmeade on Valentine's Day as the "Singles Club." Granted, Parvati was kind of seeing him in a new way that day, but he's still available! LOL Like I've said to others: If Ginny is my shameless slef-insertion, Neville is my guilty pleasure. ;) So glad you're still enjoying it, and thank you so much for the support and for a great review! :)
Wow, rollercosters got nohting against this! But what a wonderful ride! 
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Can I get an amen? LOL You, my dear, have hit the nail on the head. ;) Glad you're enjoying it though. Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
*gasping* Wow, what a chapter. Finally THE KISS and in such a tense situation.I'm sad that they have to go to such lenghts, just because of that silly Creevey boy and he still doesn't keep quiet. I just want to slap him.Neville should be proud of himself. I'm glad that you described his brotherly feelings for Hermione. I already feared another admirer 
.I hope you update soon. Any update of this wonderful story is highly welcome.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Oh no, I wouldn't shove Neville her way, just another in a line of admirers. LOL I'm just having fun getting a chance to show Neville growing up too. He's my guilty pleasure. Glad you're still enjoying it, and thanks so much for reviewing! :)
I really liked all the little surprises in this chapter but especially Neville getting points, hugs and kisses. I was mildly amazed Snape opted not to supervise Colin's detention--the boy got off easy--but then Snape didn't hear the offensive remark. I also liked Dumbledore's solicitous inquiry whether Snape could tolerate being kissed so passionately. lol Looking forward to more. ~
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
If Snape had tried to keep Colin for detention, that'd be a situation rife with chances for things to go horribly wrong. I don't think Snape, in light of everything else he's having to put up with right now, would want to pile on the suffering like that. LOL I mean, would YOU want to be faced with the object of your hatred for hours, rubbing salt in the wound? Easier to make sure the boy suffers, but not Snape as much. As for all the little surprises... everything heads toward a common end point and goal. We'll get there eventually. LOL!! Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
OMG Nicole! That was so bloody awesome. I'm so totally not disappointed at all! Thank you for such a wonderful chapter! I can't wait to see what happens next!!!!! Cheers! ~Karen
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*wipes forehead in relief* Yay! Glad you enjoyed it so much. And I feel much better having finally gotten it all out! LOL Thanks so much for reviewing. :)
Fucking yeah Neville! Fucking yeah!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
ROFL!!!!!!!! You know it! ;)
This was worth the wait! I still wished you'd let Snape hex the daylights out of Colin <g>
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
LOL But, if he did, he'd have some 'splaining to do (I head Ricky Ricardo in my head as I write that... *snerk*). So, better to just keep him out of the range of temptation. Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks so much for reviewing! :)
I can't get over how amazing it is - with each new chapter - this feeling I get after reading your story!!! It's like falling in love for the first time - all over again! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*sniffle* Wow. That just gave me awesome chills. *beams* Thank you so much! I'm so glad you've been enjoying it so much. I hope I don't disappoint... Thanks so much for a great review! :)
so i finally took the time to go have a looksie at your LJ through a link on ashwinder and was the introduced to this lovely place and now i'm happy as you can see by this cute lil smiley. i love rain. anyways another wonderful installment. It's sad that severus and hermione are going through a rough patch but then again this is comin from the sicko who lives off angst and therefore finds secret enjoyment in anguish. 
oh well least im truthful...
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
And knowing is half the battle... (GI JOE!!! *snerk*) Sorry. *cough* ;) Welcome to PP, and welcome to my crazy LJ world. The way I see it, without the angst to compare it too, the fluff wouldn't be nearly as fluffy. hehe Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
GW - the story, as I am sure you know by know, is a evolving masterpiece of HS/SS fan fiction. The depth and width of emotion that you bring out in the characters in this chapter is fantastic. I don't always get to review every chapter, but know you have earn my respect as a budding master wordsmith. I wait with eager anticipation for the next unfolding chapter in this beautifully crafted drama! God bless, Ann
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*blink blink* Wow! You're making me all weepy! *huge grin* That just made me all sorts of warm and fuzzy; I'm so glad you've enjoyed it so much! I can't get over how much people have enjoyed my little (okay, huge now, LOL) labour of love. It makes my day! Thank you so much for such a fantastic review! :)
Awww! I loved the end of this chapter... and yay! to Neville *grin* I do have to say that I still feel sorry for Colin... but then that may be because I'm in a similar situation... although my 'Colin' KNOWS I have a boyfriend *shakes head* Anyway, fantastic chapter, my heart goes out to both Hermione and Severus... I don't envy the restraint they are going to have to show.And of course, I'll be looking forward to your next chapter! 
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
I can identify with the feeling sorry for Colin bit. Hermione's thought that you know you've had a good day when you've made two guys cry comes directly from my life. I think that was prolly my most shameful moment in life, when I made two grown men cry because I hadn't behaved correctly with bestowing my affections. *sigh* I learned a lesson though! Anyway, glad you're still enjoying it, and thanks as always for reviewing! :)
*screams*Oh my God. Could that be the best chapter yet? The long awaited kiss... *eek* Seriously, I had shivers reading the scene. And Hermione losing herself in the kiss with Severus. Oooh it just keeps getting better. Could you have just excelled yourself in making me happy? I think so. And go Neville! *stabs Colin* I am so excited about this chapter. I thought about not reviewing, because I always do, but it was an amazing chapter so I couldn't not. Hope you keep it up- well you always do. Love it!! xxxxx
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*ducks at the scream* Oh. Sorry. I thought we were in danger. *snerk* ;) J/K Wow! I had such angst trying to get this chapter out; I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! As for reviewing or not: I adore all reviews, no matter what, but I never expect them. They're always a precious gift. *beams* Thank you as always for a great review! :)
Response from Mrs_D_Radcliffe (Reviewer)
No, not in danger, although possibly from how excited I am about this story. I don't think any other story will ever come close to my commitment to reading (and loving) this one. I did enjoy it a lot, I love it when I see an email sent through about an update, I did literally scream (I also ran around the room.) Aww, well you can always count on me for a review! Thanks for the latest gem of a chapter xx
Ooooooooooooooooooo SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!! Poor Severus and Hermione, I feel so bad for them...Please let them get back together at least a little bit...SNIFF...That part had me in tears, when Severus returned to his rooms...Poor Severus, he has sacrificed so much!!! WONDERFUL, EXCELLENT!!!! HURRY WITH THE NEXT CHAPTER.........PLEASE, PLEASE!!!!!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
I'll admit, I was partially inspired by Brokeback Mountain when I was writing their separation. Glad it came across as anguished as I intended. Thank you for reviewing (twice! and I know you did it to be able to rate it. *hugs*) as always. :)
