Reviews for A Kiss for the Netherfairies

I'm surprised I haven't read this one before. Enjoyed every minute of it.

Author's Response: Thank you so much! It means all the more to me coming from an author like you! 'The Price of Madness' is a stunning story and is often recommended in SSHG circles!

Why this doesn't have more reviews, I will never know. Such a well written story. Beautiful in it's insights. I love the little epilogue of speculation at the end.

Author's Response: Oh, thank you so much! I haven't looked into my Ashwinder account for ages, as there are hardly any reviews coming up! I'm all the more happy to find yours. There are more parts to the story, which I have published on A03 and fanfiction net under the same author name.

“And just like with his brewing, he knew exactly how much to add, how long to stir and when to let simmer, and was careful not to put too much heat or pressure, or to be too hasty lest it would ruin the outcome. Potion making clearly was not the only fine and subtle art he had mastered.“ I believe this is my favorite description of SS’s “abilities” ever, (and believe me I have read many!), WOW! Beautifully written! I’m so glad I found this, I usually only read longer fics but I saw where you had written a second story so I read this one first! Can’t wait to continue reading your work! Thank you.

Author's Response: Hello Danzer! I don't check usually check for reviews to this story anymore, as there are hardly ever new ones, but I'm glad I did today! Thank you very much for your kind words! It still makes me happy to have people respond to it. I hope you like the other story, too.

Definitely, one of the best chapters I have read on this site. I loved the interaction and word-play. joannie

Author's Response: Sorry! I haven't looked into the reviews to this story for ages and am only finding your comments now! Thank you so much!!!

I promise to refrain from comments until the end, I hope. In the next paragraph, you could be describing my DH! I love your story, not because of this, and I think your writing is fine. I am torn between reading endlessly and stretching it out and savourling it. joannie

I had to stop mid-read and comment on this line: ‘But he knew very well that attraction - especially sexual attraction - was never based solely on looks. If it were, very few people would get to procreate. There were other things women found alluring, such as intelligence, humour and a strong personality.’ Fits perfectly with Professor Snape and an intelligent Hermione. I met my DH, of Blessed Memory, when he was 58 and I was 33. He had all those traits - a very strong personality. I did not see what others saw as negative factors: age difference, “strong” character, intelligent to point of not suffering fools lightly - anyway - I just want to say spot on. Good job! joannie

Author's Response: Thank you! It's always nice to hear that what you assume is true actually is. My husband is almost exacty my age, but I could well imagine falling for someone who was older (strangely, younger not so much). And the attraction thing stands: Good looks are nice, but they alone do not make for attraction. In fact, I think they're are just a complementing factor in something much more complex and very hard to define.

And lastly, that kiss that kiss that kiss, oh my! [fans self] And this line: "Potion making clearly was not the only fine and subtle art he had mastered." LOL Oh I'm quite sure that potions are certainly not the only thing he's mastered. I literally laughing right now as I type this. Could that chapter have been any more perfect? I found it amusing that in Hermione's introspection of what it would be like to kiss him, you covered every other way that kissing Snape and always been described. And then you took it beyond that, into a beautiful maturity, a rightness that was painfully exquisite. I love how you closed it, the re-establishing of boundaries, but different, almost ephemeral boundaries because they can't exactly go back to how things were can they? But most importantly, you left the end with hope. Hope for the future, for more glorious conversations [which you delivered in the sequel in spades], and for eventual love, and of course, more kisses. You built the suspense in this story little by little, layer by layer and then you fulfilled it with the beginnings of an all-consuming romance. Absolutely lovely, and, always, perfect. :-) <3

Author's Response: Lol... most people said that they liked the kissing scene very much, which is funny because I always have a hard time writing about these intimacies - it's just not my thing :) I admit I kind of left the road of what most likely happened and wrote about what I wished had happened. I don't know how realistic it is that our beloved Potions Master is a good kisser... After all, I painted him as having plenty sexual experience, but no emotional bonds with anyone. So did he kiss the women he was intimate with in this way? I only ever kissed a man I loved, so I have no idea how kissing is with people you just have sex with. I feel that it's a most intimate thing (you always here that prostitutes don't kiss for exactly that reason) and that one would probably not indulge if it was just a one night stand. But, like I said, I just don't know. So let's just presume Severus liked kissing just for itself and had ample practice. Or that he took the scientific approach and did thorough research just out of interest and because like Hermione, he likes to excel in the things he does. :) At least, that would be my justification if anyone was to point out that Snape kissing like that was highly unlikely :D
