Who would be mad and stupid enough to dose Snape with a potion? Who indeed?? Lovely ending to your story. I can just imagine a Neville-like student being intimidated into baby sitting for Snape!

Fantastic ending!  Especially young Sam's ruminations at the end.  How did that relationship start, indeed.  This is a perfect conclusion, even if you never write another word of their story.  Thanks so much for sharing it.

Squeeeeeee!!!!!!!

Now that is an absolutely perfect, perfect, perfect ending!

Well done, my dear! I love this fic beyond reason, and you've just sealed it with a kiss!

Absolutely brilliant, his reputation is in tatters... or not, if Sam wants to keep the job!

Aw, cute!

What a great story. I've just read it in one go. I loved the raw emotions displayed by both of them, juxtaposed with the humour of Remus and Albus in the kitchen, and the idea of Harry and Ron meeting up for an afternoon of fun and frolics!Looking forward to the epilogue.

I want them married with children, but I'll take em this way too. 

Hermione to the rescue!  I was surprised that Dumbledore let her use his Floo after his moment of understanding, but she is an adult, after all. 

Poor Severus!  At least Hermione has the integrity to check up on him - I'm assuming that's where she is headed.  I wonder if he recognized his own potion?

Whoa! that was hot and amazing! more more more more please. and harry and ron? HAHAHAHAHA absolutely brilliant. i hope it doesn't take our favorite pair too long to realize what they're feeling. really brilliant writing, story, smut. just fabulous. 

and you did it agian another wonderful chapter but i still cant wait to see how they get even

Im lovin this story and cant wait for more!  It has made me hotter than any erotic novel I have ever read!!   Cant wait for the next chapters!!!

I can't wait for the next chapter!thay keep getting better.I hope thay can still look at each other when the potion wears off.I think Hermione will have an easer time than Severus will.He'll fell like he took advantage of her even though we all know not even wild gnomes could get her out of the room.

Poor Severus!Harry and Ron should have to be locked in a room with horny trools.Good for Hermione though,wish I was her.

Good chapter. I think the first scene is similar to Care of Magical Creatures simply because you both came up with the same sort of answer to the same problem, (picking the cherry too roughly) but I did love Sev's ingenious method of applying the salve! ;)

Wow, a chapter that leaves me almost breathless! Great work, thank you and please update again soon!gab

Ahem, WOW!  Where has this story been all of my life?  Amazing!

Wow... what a sensual and delightful chapter.

Thank you so much for the update! I really like this story, and I think you have a brilliant grasp on your plot. I am not sure what I enjoyed most, their tenderness and consideration for eachother in a very "forced" situation or their plans on revenge on Ron and Harry. While I think that there would be to much paperwork involved if the two idiots are served to the spiders in the Dark Fores or as a lunch to a hungry dragon, I sure hope you will have Hermione and Severus enforce some kind of painful revenge on them. It is about time the mentioned idiots starts to grow up!

And please, make Hermione and Severus talk with each other and still be close in the morning?

Update again soon!

Another excellent chapter!  Can't wait to find out how hard "the boys" are going to get their asses kicked!  I'm looking forward to reading more.  I love Laurie King's books as well.

She certainly seems to be dealing well with it. Hee! Even if by the sounds of it she'll need a lot of healing afterwards. (A good thing there is a Potions Master at hand, I suppose. I rather doubt she'd want to trouble Madam Pomfrey with this.)If sunrise is what will end the torture, it's a pity it couldn't happen closer to the summer... then again, it could have been even worse.I do hope that once the potion has worn off, he'll realise it just sped things along - and that this (in smaller quantities at least!), quite possibly, would have happened eventually anyway. And that it's not just pity and a desire to help that is keeping her there!

Great chapter - my I hope they do not faint from all the activities - LOL. I think the little kiss on the back meant that Severus is finally getting it that she wants him and him alone.

So beautiful, so very, very beautiful. I've read plenty of PWP fanfics (and enjoyed them tremendously, lol), but this is the first I've read that made me want to weep ... and not for joy, either. The way you've written Severus's torment and Hermione's yearning to help is truly moving. I look forward to the next chapter!

Absolutley great erotic reading.It was indeed fun to hear them think of ways to punish the boys.

this story is almost too hot to handle. (almost!) add to that the emotional content and it's absolutely mesmerizing. the scene where she left the bed and he was so desperate for her presence was very moving. and his attempts to control himself out of concern for her are also very touching.
