***This story has been abandoned. (See A/N of last posted chapter for details)*** It was meant to be a summer of leisurely exploration, of enjoyment in a relationship that no longer was forced to hide in shadows. At Spinner’s End, however, Hermione was soon to learn that some secrets can never be buried deep enough.

26 years old, avid HP fan, live in a pretty rainy country. My favourite writer is George Orwell, which should be taken as a warning by anyone looking for pink fluff. I do not like pink fluff.


I used to be a hard core SS/HG shipper. Then came Dracontia and completely blew my mind with her HP/DM stories. And once I started reading slash, there was just no going back. I still enjoy a well-written SS/HG (or any pairing, really), but the current passion is pretty boy-on-boy action. :-) Any pairing, more or less, I'm not that picky (except for SS/HP, that really creeps me out for some reason.)

I'm also an avid Bandom fan (P!atD). Those fics can be found on my LJ if you want to explore the waters outside the HP realm one day.

2008-12-08: Today, I abandoned hope of finishing my SS/HG WIPs "Shades of Grey" and "Les innocents." I'm very sad about letting go, but I feel it was the right thing to do. (More details in the A/Ns of each story if you're interested).

The same simple line, making him glad he spoke it, really links the two time frames together. Great job!

Response from RedOrchid (Author of Les Innocents)

Thank you! The former literature major in me is really happy you noticed that!

You're an absolute devil. Grrr. ;). Seriously this is too good. I'm also wondering if Serafina could be Severus' sister? Care to tell? *sigh and look with great hope at the computer screen*

Response from RedOrchid (Author of Les Innocents)

Serafina's story will come out eventually, that's all I can tell you for now. :-)

wow (pant,pant) well done!  i'm not familiar with the movie so i don't know where this is going but i'm along for the ride.  thanks so much

Response from RedOrchid (Author of Les Innocents)

Thanks. I originally meant to use quite a lot of the movie plot, but since then, the writing's been moving in other directions a bit so they will probably end up quite far apart. Thanks for reading!

The present is sweet and wonderful. And the past part is most intriguing!

Response from RedOrchid (Author of Les Innocents)

Thank you! That was exactly what I was aiming for so I'm very happy.

that was a cold shower scene.  what is up with knick knacks coming to life and being peeping toms?  kinda kinky don't you think?  lol

Response from RedOrchid (Author of Les Innocents)

I do, but that's what makes it fun :-) This story will probably be very kinky. I'm looking forward to writing it.

Ooo... he had a Muggle lover! Sarafina was a Muggle, right? I'm glad he didn't hold on to Lily, never like that pair or her anyway... hump. He deserved someone better.

Anyway, well, this is getting interesting. I wonder of there is a connection between Sarafina and the ballerina sculpture. Update quick!

Response from RedOrchid (Author of Les Innocents)

No Lily/Snape here. I frankly found that whole storyline in DH deeply insulting in a "well, I can't think of an actual reason and I don't want to put the energy into actually developing a working backstory. Let's take the I'm-12-and-just-starting-to-write-fanfiction route and just say he was deeply in luuurve!" kind of way :-)
Not to say that I haven't read a couple of fics that did the pairing extremely well, but no. Not in here :-)

Yes, Serafina is a muggle. Won't that be interesting when Voldemort comes along?...

So far it is very good!  The storyline is intriguing and is suspenful enough to make me look forward to more, which is always a good thing.  :-)  I am hoping for longer chapters and lemons, but so far so good.  I feel there is most likely a very interesting side story connected to the HG/SS story that is not all in the past.  I am looking forward to the next chapter!

Response from RedOrchid (Author of Les Innocents)

Thank you!
Won't all be in the past, no...

Mmmm. Very intruiging! I like the pace of this, your slow release of information. I'm definitely hooked.

Response from RedOrchid (Author of Les Innocents)

Thank you. I like a slow build up.

This is an interesting begining full of unanswered questions as what's "their current situation" as Hermione puts it or who's spying on them? I hope I could find out that and more soon.

Response from RedOrchid (Author of Les Innocents)

Next chapter will bring some clues. Thanks for reading.

I read your bio and you said you're more into well-plotted and cynical type of story so I'm going to hold on to that cause that's the type of story that I like too. But as short as this prologue may seem, I think I'm quite intrigued. What's that deal with the sculpture now? Curious, curious...

Update soon!

Response from RedOrchid (Author of Les Innocents)

Second chapter is in the queue. Thanks!

An intriguing beginning - can't help but wonder who the en-pointe ballerina might be ...
