Loving the story! Have a feeling my curiosity is going to have me downloading Faust to my Kindle... Missy aka LovesRickman

Author's Response: Thanks! Hope you enjoy Faust.

Hummmmm. I guess I'll have to rethink my idea that Severus wouldn't have to continue teaching. Or will I? Beth

Author's Response: You know now!

I liked your response to a previous reviewer, that Hermione holds "power over him that he knows not". Great story.

Author's Response: The irony, of course, is that he set this entire thing in motion specifically to avoid a courtship in which (to his mind) she would hold power over him.

This story is fascinating - so intelligent. I've never read its like.

Author's Response: ~preens outrageously~

"She found it more than a little off-putting when she realized, lying on his bed with him pressed up against her back, that now she was comfortable." *sighs dreamily*

Author's Response: Ah, but she can't forget ~why~ she's there -- no dreamy sighs from Hermione, only sighs of frustration.

*still love it* Also, VERY good point about the 'finite incantatum.'

Author's Response: I can't claim credit for that -- three cheers for brilliant betas -- but I agree with you!

Completely irrelevant to the actual story, but it was odd to read this as I was brought up between Richmond upon Thames and Kingston, and my mother died on the way to Kingston Hospital. This came highly recommended at le cafe dangereux, though I nearly didn't continue after the first chapter (your Snape's even worse than Theatresm's.) My feminist hackles are bristling even more than Hermione's even though you're 'softening' Snape chapter by chapter. I'm a sucker for heavily literally-referenced fics, though, and sat through nine hours of Geothe's Faust some years ago.

Author's Response: I'm terribly sorry to hear about your mother's death on the way to the hospital -- the similarities here must have been jarring.

This Snape is definitely worse than "Chaos" Snape in some key ways. It's the same sort of trickery -- "I'll give you what you want, but I'll twist it into something I want" -- except here he engineered it so he had complete control. (On the plus side, at least this Hermione had a two-week reprieve; "Chaos" Snape announced his evil scheme and commenced immediately.)

This Snape is not so much softening as being influenced by Hermione in subtle ways. She has, to misquote the Potter prophecy, power over him that he knows not.

I'm glad you're giving the story a chance. I'd be interested to hear what you think of it when you're finished.

Damn! She's falling for him! If he would stop being so nice and go back to being an utter bastard, it would be easier for her to hate him at the acceptable level she promised herself. Oh well. Perhpas he will become a more redeemable character by the end of this story such that I really want her to love him. You are chipping away as my loathing of him, bit by bit. Sucha a very nice slow turn from canon to fanon, while still seeming in canon.

Author's Response: I'm glad it seems a realistic movement. It's an interesting argument whether he's changing or whether she is simply seeing him as he is without the protection of his classroom persona.
