I'm over here reading for the SSHG quiz and realized I'd never read this before!  This story made me laugh, and I'm glad you gave a hint as to possible outcomes in your title.  Watch out, world!  Here come the Snape Family!

Response from richardgloucester (Author of Takeover Bid: A Tale of the Marriage Law)

Funny how we make these discoveries, isn't it?  Thank you for reading and liking my story!

A very good read.

That's so utterly brilliant and hilarious! I can practically picture the army of know-it-all  Snapes that is going to overrun the Ministry of Magic one day. Hogwarts will be an interesting place to be as well. I already pity the staff, especially Madame Pince, she won't have a moments rest anymore. 

Is Severus going to stay at home with the kids, while writing his gossip column in his spare time? Or is he going to accompany his wife on her travels as a cursebreaker seeking inspirations for his books?

On the second read this one-shot is even better than I thought it was! Possibly, RG, this is the best Marriage Law fic I've ever read. Bravissima!

Response from richardgloucester (Author of Takeover Bid: A Tale of the Marriage Law)

*blushing furiously*  Gosh!  Wow!  Thank you!

This is just as fun in the reread as it was the first time. Makes a reader wonder what things were like in 20 or 30 years. Hint hint

Response from richardgloucester (Author of Takeover Bid: A Tale of the Marriage Law)

Thank you!  Who knows whether a sequel bunny will bite?

LMAO, a legion of Snape grandchildren !!

So pleased I made you laugh.  Thanks!

It has been tried before in the immaculate Army of Snapes. As classic as that one is, they vanished in the end. In your story, the army of Snapes has a HUGE potential for future domination. Voldemort will toss in his grave that he did not go about his business in this way. This was a perfect take on the Marriage Law.

Response from richardgloucester (Author of Takeover Bid: A Tale of the Marriage Law)

Ew.  Voldemort breeding.  Ick.  Well, aside from having to wash my brain out now - thank you!(I don't know that story - I'll have to have a look.)

Response from nata (Reviewer)

An Army of Snapes on Ashwinder by ladyofthemasque is effectively a PWP, but a funny one.

I just love this story!  It is delightfully funny.

Hehe, I can see it now... Percy finally made Minister of Magic and HIS undersecretary comes to him to say, "Sir, we may have a problem this year at Hogwarts.  Over half the students are Snapes.'  ROFL.

Response from richardgloucester (Author of Takeover Bid: A Tale of the Marriage Law)

Heee!  Indeed yes.  He'd certainly regret his part in it then, wouldn't he?Thanks!

You go, Snapes!  Fix those idiots at the Ministry!  The story was a lot of fun.  Thanks for your work!

"You just wait until I tell your mother about this, Percy Weasley," she hissed. "She'll hex your nadgers off!"  What a nice surprise to find out the nerdy Junior Sub-Undersecretary's identity.   This was just getting started - it's a great beginning, you need to go on from here!  We need to see the former spy gathering gossip and plot bunnies while accompanying his wife across the globe in search of goblin curses (literal ones - expanding her vocabulary!) and interesting settings in which to work on filling the world with little Snapes!

Response from richardgloucester (Author of Takeover Bid: A Tale of the Marriage Law)

Nice ideas - I'll file them away!  Thanks for the review!

Well that decision went over well. Imagine a dozen Snapes. *shivers* What would the world come to?I quite like how you made Severus write a gossip column. Especially with a female name. *sigh* It would be lovely teasing him about it.

Response from richardgloucester (Author of Takeover Bid: A Tale of the Marriage Law)

Yes, it would!  But how would he take being teased, I wonder?Thanks for your review!

*mwuhahahaha* Now that sounds like a damn good plan, a legion of Snapelings. Every woman will want one. Cool fic. Many thanks.
