Jumped on the Harry Potter bandwagon in 2000 (when Goblet of Fire was out in hardback). Prisoner of Azkaban is my favourite in the series, followed by Order of the Phoenix. I read and write in the SS/HG corner of the Potterverse.
Reviews for Polyandry and Other Problems
No, actually Severus does need to know what he and Hermione have been putting Lucius through and what they've reduced him to in this farce the Ministry has subjected them to.I haven't said anything about this thread of the story before now, but not only has Lucius lost the love of his life, he has also placed himself in quite an untenable situation. Both Severus and Hermione need to have that brought to their attention and they need to do something positive about it. This nightmare isn't only all about them. I am glad that Narcissa called Hermione on this point. Lucius does deserve some bit of happiness in all of this mess.Yay! You finally gave Severus that small break in all of this drama. I hope he is able to implement whatever is needed in time. Loving this story, as always.Happy writing!
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
Now that's going to be brought to Severus's attention by way of Hermione's memory of what Narcissa had to say.Lucius does deserve some happiness, yes. With any luck something can be possible for him.We shall see if Severus can implement it that vital info...Thank you! I hope you enjoy the next chapter!
*snigger* at the end of chapter.Yay! She's gotten through to them, now will they be able to view the memory and save her in half an hour?Looking forward to seeing what happens next!
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
Thanks, glad you found it funny!We shall see...Next chapter coming soon!
Ho, ho oh my. Of course the last Penseive in the Manor is the porny one. Craptastic setup there. Once Hermione survives, she's going to be sent to Azkaban for Husbandicide... (Is there a proper word for that?)
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
Lucius must be kicking himself for not getting a spare public Pensieve...Hermione would! Provided Severus doesn't beat her to it.Thanks for reviewing!
Just coming back to an old favourite and realising that I had forgotten how much of an arse Lucius was when everything began.Thanks so much for all the hard work and sheer stubbornness you put into writing this and sharing it with us.
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
Thanks! I still remember writing POP. It was traumatic at times, but nothing I've written has surpassed it yet. I'm still not entirely sure how I managed it.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH poor Severus and Luscius
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)

auuugghhhh I just found this story and was hoping it was complete but darn it all... now I will be on pins and needles waiting for the update. So her missing "memory" holds the key??? Great Story and a fun read!
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
It is nearly complete, there's about two chapters left to post, not including the epilogue.Perhaps it does...Thank you! Next chapter will be posted soon.
Oh NO!!! What a Cliffie. I do so hope Severus is able to find that cure. They have been through so much. It was a great chapter and this suspense is going to kill me.
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
Sorry! I can't seem to be able to resist cliffies.Hopefully he can...Thank you! Next chapter is going to post soon.
Oh, no. After everything they've been through. Severus simply must save her.Such suspense. Please don't make us wait too long.
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
He'll certainly do everything he can!Thank you! Sorry for the wait, uni work does rather get in the way. Next chapter is finally very close to posting now.
Noooooooo! You can't leave it there and make us wait. Please post soon. I am on the edge of my seat. Also props on the exceptionally clean spelling, and grammar, they far exceeds the typical offerings, especially at your other posting site!
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
Sorry! Next chapter is coming very soon now.Thank you, I'm very glad to hear it!
How damn frustrating! There's got to be something they're not finding. Something they're not expecting to be the answer....I love how Hermione's mom (Harridian Helen!) smacked Lucius upside his head - I've been wanting to do that for a long time! Ah, jealousy will get him nowhere!
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
Indeed there is!Thank you! Harridan Helen did a good job there, even if Lucius wouldn't agree.
Yikes!!! What a tough cliffhanger. I cannot begin to guess what Severus can do next. Lucius better not have a new Pensieve memory from this chpater. Must say that I liked Mrs Granger's interaction with her son-in-law. Lucius murmured, leering. He yelped when her mother smacked the back of his head. “Behave.” Yay for Mrs Granger!Thanks for the new chapter.
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
Cliffie? What cliffie? Oh, that one. Sorry, I just can't seem to resist them!I think after Tricksy died, Lucius couldn't manage to get another elf to spy. Especially not with Dilly on Hermione's side.Thank you! Yay for Harridan Helen.
i can't wait to read more, this is a great story! stupid wizengamot! don't they know that half bloods and muggles can have magical babies too? geez! anyways, cant wait to read more!
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
Thank you!The Wizengamot included half-bloods in the law, but good point with Muggles. Maybe there aren't enough Muggle-borns?More coming soon, hopefully within a week. Hope you enjoy it!

Wow! Fabulous story.
Wow! I really am hoping they are nearing the end of that terrible time. After all they've gone through they more than deserve a little peace and happiness. And maybe a baby...
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
They are coming near the end of it... one way or the other, it'll all be over at the end of the countdown. They certainly deserve a happy ending, and we'll see about any patter of little feet.Thanks for reviewing!
Hmm. Methinks these new laws will force Lucius to perform again with his lovely new wife. Wouldn't put it past him if he engineered it himself. ;)As always, thanks for an excellent chapter.
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
It does seem that Lucius will reap the benefits if this new law.Thanks for reviewing!

What a place to stop the chapter!! I hope it won't be too long until you'll be able to update again. This is a very interesting story so far, and I can't wait to read more.
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
Sorry for the delay, the next chapter should be up within a week.I hope you find the rest of the story interesting, thanks for reviewing!

I must be missing something at the end of the chapter.Is St. Mungo's checking the fertility of the girls that are still ill, so they can be impregnated whilst laying in their sickbeds? That's a bit much ... or maybe I've forgotten a connection to another chapter... I'm confused.
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
Oops! I forgot to explicitly mention that all those ill who survived long enough will be cured by now.Although I wouldn't put it past the Wizengamot to do that if any were unfortunate enough to still be in the induced coma.Hope that clears it up! Thanks for reviewing.

Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)

Oh I bet Lucius is coming around to a real marriage.I like the Harry/Ginny/Draco pairing, just not sure Harry will at first or second for that matter. lol
Response from ayerf (Author of Polyandry and Other Problems)
Severus will be regretting that he didn't get an Unbreakable Vow out of Lucius...Harry probably will need some time to adjust!
