No! I just read the story and realized it's not finished and evidently you haven't worked on it in eight months. You need to finish this! It's so good and I need to know what happens.

you need to finish this!  I want to read more!

What an entertaining story!!!  Do you plan to post new chapters?  Please don't tell me that you have had to stop working on this, it really is a great read!Beth

*gasp* How did I miss this story before?

I absolutely love this! The thought that no charm or item can cover the name on her hands is wonderful. I think it is very clever that the charm Lavender made up was for a marriage bond. Well done, and I hope there is an update soon!

This is so well done!  I'm eager for more.  I like how you've created the inadvertant binding and interested to see where they go with it!

*stops reading,reluctantly, to stop for a moment to say... OMG, this story is fabulous... before continuing onward... :D

Ohohoho~ This is getting good. :D Can't wait for another update, cheers!

Oh what a unique twist to fated love.  It is rather humorous that you have Lavender creating the spell.  What will Snape do with the knowledge?  Well done! Irish

Hermione was right to resent that spell... now look where it got her *grin*.

Nice story, I'm curious what's going to become of it.

Oh, of course she'd resent it. Poor girl. :) Thank you

I always know I'm going to love anything you write, m'dear, and this one is no exception!  Please don't leave me in suspense long!

Evil cliffhanger!

What a hilarious progression of events in this chapter (at least Hermione has the support of Ginny...), and what a lovely little cliffhanger at the end!  Update soonest!

Poor Hermione can't even remove her gloves to eat, which is how we Muggles in the US do it.  One never eats with gloves on.  Oh, how dreadful that she had to commit such a faux paux, and then discover it was all for naught!   Heehee

Poor Hermione.  She's just having no luck at all, is she?  ^_~

Really liking this.  Looking forward to seeing Snape's reaction.

Yikes - the bubbling feeling is kind of creepy - It made me itch just thinking about it. Poor Hermione - just as she is about to run - low and behold - she runs into Severus

Hee.  I love the fact that Hermione is trying to deal with this.  And there seems to be no way around Lavender's little spell. 

Lovely update, I am totally hooked on this story. I wonder how long Severus was standing behind her, and how much he saw....

Update again soon

I saw the second chapter was up on this site.

It figuires the gloves would have changed just because Snape showed up.

What does Dumbledore know?  Did he help the gloves counteract the coverup?

Poor Hermione.

Now what?

Better hurry up witch!...

I wonder what Dumbledore sensed when he patted Hermione's hand. It's rather strange that the writing went all the way through her gloves. Maybe she should put another layer over top? ;)

I feel quite certain that Severus was assigned to Hermione's table. Maybe Dumbledore had a little matchmaking of his own going on. Hopefully Severus doesn't embarrass Hermione too badly if he sees her gloves.

Hmm.  I wonder what exactly will happen at midnight.  I can't wait to see what.

My, my! That is one persistent little spell; isn't it?

"She respected and admired him, but it certainly wasn’t a crush and she hadn’t had any silly schoolgirl fantasies about him. Well, at least not in quite some time."

Hee! You just keep telling yourself that, Hermione. I wonder how Professor Snape will take the news that the only way to get rid of the writing is for her to snog him senseless. The things that poor man has to do for the greater good!

well, what an evil thing to do, stopping the chapter right before the confrontation between Hermione and Snape.

This chapter was fun, I could really see Hermione going crazy with anger. In her place, I would have hexed Lavender.

Update soon please

Oh, dear! The brightest witch of her age got sucked into performing a little known (and unresearched!) spell. Lavender will be lucky if she comes out of this alive. Now, why do I think Severus knows this little spell and recognizes the resulting writing? Hmmm. Perhaps he would be kind enough to lend Hermione those lovely fingerless gloves he wears to the Quidditch games. Very intriguing start...

Ooooh, tall man in black!  Look out, Hermione :D  This is such a cute, funny tale - looking forward to the next chapter!

I'm terribly curious to see Severus' reaction to this (if he IS the tall man in black).  It's so like Lavender (what little we know of her) to try to craft a spell from two such unreliable sources, then actually be proud of the havoc she's wreaked. 

Thanks for the update, hon!
