*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! :)

Reviews for Phantom of Hogwarts
Hm... with the small pieces of miscommunication that have popped up between Severus and Hermione in this chapter, I am worried about Thursday.
Great update!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Aww, don't worry too much. I'm not THAT cruel. *snerk* But, the course of true love can't always run smoothly. LOL Thanks as always for reviewing! :)
Blast. Introducing the "other woman" are you? I was sort of frustrated at Severus and Hermione in this one, but I'm sure it's all for the best in the end.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
LOL No, I'm really not, I promise! ;) She's an odd duck, but not THAT sort of competition. Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Programs are a good idea! I could not recall what play Beaubaton was performing and was as confused as Ron. I had to go back after I finished reading the chapter to look it up in the first chapter ... which Ron would never do;)
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
LOL Too true about Ron... *snerk* Les Mis really didn't make much impression on me when I saw it, so I was just basing the description on my experience. *shrug* But hey, I guess the Ministry thought, "Oh look, a French play for the school in France!" hehehe Thanks as always for reviewing! :)
Thanks for another great chapter. There was a couple little relationship quirks that were good because they'll hopefully strengthen their relationship. Severus doesn't want to upset Hermione, and she wants to be careful not to let him think he isn't a priority to her. I'm definitely looking forward to Mrs. Granger's reaction when the relationship comes out into the open! I'm wondering if the angst is about to increase, building off what is already going on, in order to heighten the backstage drama with the onstage drama. Either way, I look forward to seeing how this all plays out. =)
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Oh, the angst! LOL I certainly don't foresee quit the depths of despair we've been through already happening again, but the course of true love never does run smoothly. ;) Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Response from SeverusLovesUs (Reviewer)
I'm not sure how that got put on the first chapter. Sorry!
Dumbledore really latched onto the program idea- very in like him.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Yup, whatever can help set them apart as the best! LOL Every little bit helps. Thanks as always for reviewing! :)
I can't tell you how much I love this story. It's my absolute hands-down favorite. I was so excited when I saw the update email.
The chapter was well worth the wait. I'm curious to know more about this Fern Campbell person.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*blush* Awww, you're so sweet! I'm so glad you're enjoying it so much. Thanks as always for reviewing! :)
yeah well worth the wait i relly loved it and snape is human wowthis is one of my favorite stories and i usually dont read stories that arent finished but i love this one thank you for posting
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
"Human"--Yes!! That's exactly what I'm going for. Oh, you just made me so happy. :) Thank you so much for reviewing! :)
Yay!! Another Phantom chapter! As soon I saw the email I had to read it! (even though I'm at work, oops) I'm so excited to see that things are progressing! I've really enjoyed your character development, too. It's nice to have a good build up the smut (although it's plenty built up now!) sometimes. I love Les Mis and had to chuckle at Ron's reaction since it is very much my husband's reaction to the musical, too. Silly boys.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
LOL Silly boys, indeed. I have to admit, I was basing his reaction on mine, as I saw it long ago, and it really didn't make much of an impression. *snerk* Glad you're still enjoying it, and thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Thank heavens, another chapter of PoH!
I love the way you are developing Severus. I laughed so much at this reaction to Mrs Grangers advances but then I felt sorry for Hermione. She seemed to take the brunt of his reaction.
Hopefully this Fern woman won't become too much of a danger to their relationship, although I have a feeling there is some angst ahead.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*beams* I'm so pleased that you're enjoying Snape's development. As for Fern, she's an odd duck, but hopefully she'll be more amusing than anything else when we meet her. Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Yay! More phantom!
I have been following and am very pleased you updated.
Poor Severus. He really needs to learn to take a compliment. Hope he gets lots more for him to practice on!
Keep up the good work, hope rl lets you play with Severus more often!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Oh, boy howdy, wouldn't I love to be able to play with Severus... LOL!! Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Its my birthday today (7th here already) so thank you for a great present. Enjoyed it but am concerned where next chapter is going. Fern is a possible protagonist, as is Severus' insecurity. Looking forward to next chapter.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Happy Birthday! *tosses self-tidying confetti* :) I promise, Fern isn't going to be dangerous, so rest easy. LOL Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Oooooooooooo, EXCELLENT!!! Squeeeeeee!!!! Oh dear, is FERN going to be a problem for Severus and Hermione's relationship? Egads I hope NOT!...Well done, I LOVED IT!!!! Can't wait to see how you get Hermione to Spinners End!!! WHOO HOO!!!LOVED IT!!! '
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
LOL Well, Fern's an odd duck, but not dangerous. Glad you're still enjoying it, and thanks as always for being my most devoted R&Rer. :)
Yay!!!!... I got all excited when the update showed up in my mail box and I'm glad I waited until after work to have a good read.
Still love this story and even though it isnt very action heavy the movement and plot building sections of this chapter make everything else flow really well.
I would have to agree with Ron Le Mis is hard play to follow at the best of times, but to have accents as well, would have been murder.
Oh and this Fern Character sounds like she will be interesting, I hope she and Severous work out, or at least she is flexable enough for Severus to move in to what he wants.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Yeah, this is another of what I call "bridge chapters"--and they are much more difficult to write than "event" or "scene" chapters. LOL Glad you still enjoyed it, and thanks as always for reviewing! :)
*squeeeeeeee* :D you updated!!!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
LOL Yes, at long last, I managed to get enough time to finish this chapter. Let's hope things continue that way. *snerk* Thanks for the support! :)
Hummm... Very verrry interesting. . . Beauxbatons puts on Les Miz. Of course! Now I'm looking forward to what Durmstrang will produce--I'm thinking a Wagner opera or something based on the Faust legend. But I have to concur wholeheartedly with Minerva--Hogwarts is Number One!!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Indeed, Les Miserables was the Beauxbatons assignment. Durmstrang has The Sound of Music. *snerk* Sorry, but I've had "the Lonely Goatherd" in my mind lately since I went back and looked up info on the other schools' plays. LOL And of course, Hogwarts FTW!! ;) Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Lovely chapter as always. I am curious has to how SS will get HG to his home to help with the contractors. I wonder what kind of job offer snape is going to get. I can see the old snape manipulating this Fern character to get lots of money and owning the company in the end, but that doesn't fit at all with the snape that has since evolved in this story. I guess I will have to wait and see.I don't remember what play the beauxbatons girls were doing so I find myself as confused as ron about that one, lol.Can't wait for the next installment!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
LOL!! Beauxbatons had Les Miserables. ;) And don't forget, Beauxbatons isn't just girls. (The movie made it that way, but the book didn't.) I anticipate having a bit of fun with Fern. *wicked grin of nefarious plotting* LOL Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks as always for reviewing! :)
I am truly glad you were able to update your story. I am enamored of it and cannot wait for the next chapter. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to reread it!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
LOL Why, thank you! I'm glad you enjoy it enough to reread it. *beams* Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Another excellent chapter, I just love this story. It is rare that you find a fan fic that deals so much with character development. I am enjoying Snape's transition from loner to member of society. Thanks for your continued efforts and as always PLEASE update soon!

Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
Aww, you're so sweet! I wonder if it's my interest in Psychology that leads me to enjoy character development so much. *shrug* I'm glad you're still enjoying it, and thanks so much for reviewing! :)
MUST (thunk) HAVE (thunk) UPDATE!!! (thunk) (thunk) (thunk) (thunk) Pwease? -bats eyelashes- I haven't seen PoTO, but this makes me want to go see it!!! -hmm... i wonder when it's coming to Sydney...-
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*cringes in sympathy pains* Wow! You're insatiable! LOL I can't wait till the new 90 minute version opens here in June. I'm all over that like white on rice... I hope you're not hurting yourself too much! And thanks so much for reviewing! :)
What a treat!
Thank you so much.
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
I'm glad you enjoyed it, and thank YOU so much for reviewing! :)
Yay! A new post! Been checking everyday almost for a post! Can't wait for more! Love the little thing with Crookshanks
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*beams* I had a lot of fun writing the Crookshanks scene. Having 3 weird-ass cats gave me lots to choose from. LOL Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Ah Ha!!! You snuck this one in on me!!! Ohhhhh I LOVE IT!! THANKS FOR ANOTHER GREAT CHAPTER!!!! I don't really think Hermione has thought about WHAT can happen Now that SEVERUS can Apparate within Hogwarts....Can't WAIT till she is SURPRISED!!! Whoo Hoo!!!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*wicked laughter* Yeah, you and prolly everyone else are eagerly awaiting him sneaking into her room for some hawtness... *snerk* Anyway, I'm glad you're still enjoying it, and thanks as always for reviewing! :)
THANK YOU for not rushing to babies. It's great for some people but not for me; and I don't see Hermione and Severus as the baby-wanting type, either. It is nice to see something different. :)
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
*beams* Aww, thanks! I admit, this is my forum for my personal agenda in a lot of ways. LOL But, I also think that the characters aren't exactly the pop out lots of babies types. I, too, wanted to be able to show that there are other options out there, since I don't see it much in fics (or in life, actually). Thanks so much for reviewing! :)
Oh no he didn't! How DARE Albus! He's suppose to care about Severus, not ruin him!
Response from Good_Witch (Author of Phantom of Hogwarts)
I daresay the old man thinks he's doing what's best for both of them, although we likely disagree... It'll make for some interesting consequences. Thanks for reviewing. :)
Gods! Great chapter! Dumbledore doing himself in right there in my opinion. Now I think this will open up some new ideas for HG/SS. Dumbledore says, "nope, can't go anywhere you're mine." I think that Severus and Hermione should force Dumbledore to fire Severus, say a scandelous affair to come out after the NEWTS??? Because with the NEWTS, Hermione will have earned her grades by then.
I agree with everyone else, very evil cliffie, but lots of promise for the next chapter to leave me breathless! Great job!
