antivenin not antivenom
Author's Response:
In 1981, the World Health Organization decided that the preferred terminology in the English language would be venom and antivenom rather than venin and antivenin or venen and antivenene.' (source http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=653958)

Author's Response: There is porn and soft porn - and scope for readers to indulge their own sordid little fantasies!

This was such a sweet story. I really did like it, especially the thought that not only would Severus have someone frantically trying to save him in the shack, but that he would have had someone living to share his burdens with during that awful last year of the books.
Author's Response: Thank you very much. Yes, I wanted to give Snape an ally. Possibly the saddest thing in DH for me was how alone he would have felt that year.

Gentle Writer,
From sitting on the edge of the bed to becoming husband and wife in every sense was pretty skimpy, if I may humbly say so. It seems Severus wasn't as affected by the dementors compared to everyone else in the room. He's so powerful and sexy! How dare Umbridge presume to think that the servant who killed Dumbledore would not have already found out if Hermione knew where Harry was! Doesn't the stupid bitch know that Severus Snape is an accomplished Ligilimense? He doesn't need dementors or torture to know what others have been up to or get a confession. He is a weapon in his own right! She has treated one of the Dark Lord's favored servants very disrespectfully. I hope the Dark Lord punishes her for it. Hermione is his reward for faithful service. It's the least he deserves.

Gentle Reviewer,
One reader called ths chapter soft porn. I'm not good at writing hard core stuff, so I didn't even try. That's why I put in the words 'a litlle while later (twice) - I'm sure my readers' Snape-obessed minds will be appy to fill in their own details!
And I totally agree with you about Umbridge. She is, to put it mildly, a prat! Readers hate her, so she can be as stupid as necessary! :)

Author's Response: Thanks!

Once again, very realistic. I'm glad they didn't rush off to the bed room. I'm glad that Severus has Hermione, but for some reason I hadn't thought that Hermione's house mates would believe she would betray them now that she had married Snape against her will. I figured they would be pitying her. I suppose they are all under so much stress that Seamus needed to take it out on someone. Does Ginny still trust Hermione? I hope her friends don't turn on her, but if that is what must happen for her to be there for Severus, it is worth it. He's given up as much himself.
Author's Response: Seamus has a horrible temper in canon, and Lavender is anti-Hermione since the Ron affair in the 6th year. Ginny still trusts Hermione, but has no opportunity to see her since they're not in the same classes.

Hermione sure is fast. I would have had to close my eyes just to do the first step. Go Hermione!!! I hope these little epiphanies when Hermione over to Severus' side.
Author's Response: It's so useful that she's the best student ever!

Poor Severus and Hermione. I think he should have a talk with Hermione and let her in on his work. They would provide each other someone to share this burden with. Snape's double a spy and now, Hermone could be a spy for Snape and the Order, partners in crime, so to speak. I could work out for the betterment of the side of the light. They could protect each other with alibis. Back up each other's stories. Make Hermione less afraid. Give Severus some comfort and companionship. Is there anywhere safe for them to be candid without being found out?
Author's Response: It's a bit too early for that - he will get round to it, I promise.

Thank you so much for sharing!

This is a pretty good story, but it seems very similar to The self-writing parchment (by beaweasley, I think) only a simpler version. I'm not implying anything bad, just saying you seem to have had a very similar plot bunny-call it synchronicity.
Author's Response: I'm glad you like it. I haven't read The self-writing parchment, and certainly did not take my idea from it. Don't they say there are only seven plots in the world? :) The sole impetus for my fic came from the Aristotle quote. I also wanted to write an MLC that didn't depend on Snapoe being pure-blood, as we now know he isn't. I have to say I'm pretty proud of writing a 13 chapter story from one quote, as I do not consider myself a writer at all!

I like it, but I think you need to develop Snape and Hermione's character a little more. With the things are going, I'm not getting any of their internal feelings or motives behind their actions.
Just a thought. :) Great job!
Author's Response: This story is, as much as possible, canon compliant. Some things are, therefore given. We know Hermione's character and Snape's; we know why they act and think as they do. These first chapters have been about their loneliness and isolation, from their support systems and from each other. Top be honest, I think they're both in shock! Next chapter will give you lots of lovely angst and internal agonising.
