Hey all!
I'm a recent college graduate with a great job and an even better hobby - writing Dramione fanfiction! I pretty much write that pairing exclusively, not counting side pairings, of course. I find the chemistry and tension between both Draco and Hermione absolutely intoxicating and there's a lot to work with as far as plot and character go. I love love love the canon pairings (JKR can do no wrong!) but she already wrote them so well that I feel like anything I try to do will fall short. :)
Likes: Kittens, puppies, Johnny Depp, movies, music (rock, alternative, pop, and electronic), musicals, Glee, writing, reading, laughing, baking, and being surrounded by awesome.
Dislikes: Clowns, centipedes, ants, guns, boring-ness-ism.
"The Reminder" was my first HP fanfic attempt. I'm quite fond of it.
"An Aversion to Change" was my second. I love this one, too, and it's pretty darn successful.
"The Resilient" is the sequel to "Aversion." It is completely written and, recently, fully posted. The banner is by the super-awesome CoolCatElly!

I have a few other ideas that I'm working on, but nothing that will be posted (or even finished...) before "The Resilient" is done.
I am also kicking around the idea of an original fiction, but it will be eons before that even gets close to being interesting to anyone but me. :)
I love reviews (like every author), so you should probably leave one! :)
Enjoy, and thanks for reading!!
Oh man, that scene at Hermione's house was intense. Prof. Snape is one scary man when he's angry...
I can't wait to see what'll go down now that Hermione is living at Hogwarts. Interesting times, I'm sure. And I wonder...earlier, you wrote that Hermione was romantically interested in him. Is there any chance that a romance will develop between them? Snape seems pretty incensed now, but his feelings could cool... Either way, I can't wait to see!
Great job!
Author's Response: Scary, isn\'t he? I think Hermione held up pretty well, don\'t you?
Hermione is not really living at Hogwarts. She\'ll be spending weekends there. :0)
About romance, I think there is a long road to walk until they\'re ready for one another, but the road isn\'t long enough, and we\'ll get there before the end of this story. ;0)
Thanks for another thoughtful review, Misdemeanor! :0)
Wow, that was good!
I like how you kinda gave a clue as to what happened between Hermione and Snape, but I can't wait to hear the full explanation. Great job so far, update soon!!
Author's Response: Thanks! :0)
I\'m glad you enjoyed the hint to what happened between Hermione and Snape, there will be more before you get a full explanation.
Keep reading and reviewing, Misdemeanor! :0)
Good chapter. That 'adventure' was a good way to bring Hermione and Snape together without it being so weird.
Good job!
Author's Response: I\'m glad you think the way Hermione joined the plot wasn\'t weird.
Thanks for reading and reviewing, Misdemeanor! :0)
Aw, there was some real father-son bonding in this chapter, even though Snape was determined for their not to be. I understand why he's so determined to ignore Nathan as much as possible, but Dumbledore's right: it's not so much an issue of *wanting* a son anynmore, but as of *having* one. And I didn't like how he was demeaning Dumbledore's portrait. Really now! You'd think he would have more respect.
Great job on the story. I can't wait to see what else will develop!
Author's Response: Yes, Snape is very stubborn... But Dumbledore is always right, isn\'t he? Let\'s see what Snape makes of what he heard...
And I don\'t think Dumbledore really takes Snape\'s behavior seriously...
Thanks for another great review, Misdemeanor! I love them. :0)
Good chapter.
Snape is feeling increasingly guilty and confused about Nathan, which seems like a normal reaction. Although, he better not consent to be Nathan's father just because of Harry. I'm sure you wouldn't take that turn in the story (at least, I hope you wouldn't!)
And Hermione...my my my. When is she going to see Snape again? Although for it to work, he has to reciprocate, which will take more time.
Anyways, keep up the good work!
Author's Response: Thanks. :0)
I don\'t think Snape would consent to be Nathan\'s father just because of Harry, but I think it could help. :0P
Hermione is doomed, isn\'t she? Poor woman...
Thanks for reading and reviewing, Misdemeanor. I really like your comments. :0)
Nice and angsty...very appropriate to how all parties should be feeling at this moment.
Ah, off to read Part II !!
Author's Response: Oh, the angst...
"Can't I have a no-pie day?!" Hahaha.
Oh man, Ron is fantastic. "She dated me! Why would she go out with Snape?" Haha.
Oh my word...Harry and Ron should have known better than to talk about something that private in the Leaky Cauldron. And now a reporter knows about it and the word will be out to everyone. This is going to get messy.
Or messier, I should say! Nathan and Snape's confrontation was nuts. Yelling at eachother in the middle of the Great Hall...and right after Nathan mentioned something about his father! Now, Andy and Kevin aren't geniuses, but I'm guessing they'll be able to put that together...
The dung's really hitting the fan now, isn't it? Can't wait to see what happens, great work!
Author's Response: *lol* I\'m glad you enjoyed the \"funny\" moments, Misdemeanor.
Harry and Ron were acting without thinking. I agree, things will get very messy now.
That argument in the Great Hall was nuts, indeed. If Rita don\'t get to it first, I\'m sure the boys will find out.
Thanks for reading and reviewing, Misdemeanor. I\'m sorry it took me this long to answer you.
Whee! Nathan and Snape, Snape and Nathan, Snape and Hermione! Gasp! Whatever shall the next chapter bring?
I'm happy that Nathan's friends are cool with him now. And what was up with Lupin? I think other people are starting to notice!
Great chapter!
Author's Response: Confrontations is your answer, Misdemeanor. Lot\'s of confrontations.
I\'m happy Nathan has his friends back, too.
As for Lupin...
Thanks for reading and reviewing, Misdemeanor! :0)
I'm happy you updated! I think that you have a good story here, and I'm excited to see what will happen and how everyone will react when they find out the truth.
And ah, Nathan's first detention with Snape...that should be fun times. Can't wait to read it!
Author's Response: I\'m glad you\'re enjoying and story so far. The truth will come out eventually, and you\'ll be able to read about everyone\'s reaction to it.
Detentions with Snape are always \"fun\", right? *lol*
Thanks for reading and reviewing, Misdemeanor! :0)
I loved this chapter. Oh, it was good. We finally find out what really happened to Hermione, Snape finally realizes just who exactly Nathan is. You wrote it great too; just enough angst!
I like how Nathan is so mature in taking his punishment and apologizing for his actions.
Oh man, the detentions with Snape...or should I say dad? Those are going to be some kind of interesting.
Great job!
Author's Response: I\'m glad you liked the angst in this chapter.
Nathan was raised by Hermione and tries to do what\'s right (most of the time). ;0)
Yeah, the detentions...
Thanks for reading and reviewing, Misdemeanor! :0)
Ahhh omg omg omg!!
The truth was eating at Snape for so long, and now it just bursts forward! It was bound to at one point, but ohhhh man. That was crazy. Great job. I am SO excited to see what happens next!
Author's Response: OMG, indeed! *lol*
Yes, the truth was asking to come out. I\'m glad you liked how it bursted foward.
Thanks for reading and reviewing, Misdemeanor! :0)
Ah, Hermione's got it for Snape! Can't say I'm surprised...after all, he is the father of her child. And can I just say how much I love Nathan? He is such a clever little kid!
And were the blue eyes in McGonagall's office Dumbledore's? I think so. And if they were, he totally knows what's going on. I don't think Snape's secret is as secret as he would like!
Author's Response: Yes...
And I\'m glad you like Nathan. I love writing him.
The blue eyes are Dumbledore\'s, yes. ;0) How much he knows? Well...
Thanks for reading and reviewing, Misdemeanor! :0)
Oh Nathan, like mother like son. Doing independent research and answering questions in Potions... And Snape even used the same insults on him, wonderful!
Good chapter. I'm interested to see where the plot of this is going.
As far as the houses go, I took a quiz once and scored as a Slytherin...I swear I'm nice though!! Hahaha.
Author's Response: I\'m glad you liked Nathan and Snape this chapter.
Thanks for reading and reviewing! :0)
Oh, and...
100 points to Slytherin! ;0)
Yay! Everything's finally looking up! I only hope it can continue!
Good job!
Author's Response: Let\'s hope they don\'t mess things now, right? Thanks for reading and reviewing, Misdemeanor! :0)
Sigh...
I'm so happy they found Nathan. Harry is being extremely annoying about the whole thing, but I can see where he's coming from. I just can't imagine the reaction of everyone else when they find out...Like Ron, for instance. Breaking the news to the Order is going to be a whole other ordeal.
I hope Nathan forgives Hermione and accepts Snape. It would definitely be a pity if he did not, and almost a bit unfair to both his parents.
Great story, love it lots!
Author's Response: Yes, it was a relief when they found Nathan. Harry is blinded by his feelings regarding Snape... This will be a delicate subject for everyone, I guess.
I hope Nathan can forgive his parents, too. I want them to be happy together as soon as possible.
I\'m glad you\'re still enjoying the story, Misdemeanor. Thanks for reading and reviewing! :0)
Hm, Draco was a little OoC, I must say. I don't think he would have handled that confrontation with Harry in Hermione's place as coolly as he did. Furthering that thought, I don't think he would have gone to Harry's office to talk about it civilly, either.
But other than that, good job on your story.
I like Hermione's and Draco's relationship. It's one of those forbidden ones (think Romeo and Juliet), except that I don't think either character realizes just how hard they've fallen for one another. But what shall be the ultimate force that brings them together?
And will Hermione be sick next chapter? I can't help feeling that you made mention of the sneeze for a reason.
Anywho, great story. Keep writing!
Ugh, Malfoy is infruiating! He's bossy and assuming and snobby, but charming and sexy and a great dancer and...
Ah, completely infruiating....
And I definitely forgot about Harry while all this was happening. Oh snap! It will not be a happy day when he finds out.
One word: Niiiice.
I really do Hope Harry and Ginny get beck together. A Harry/Hermione mix is a little odd to me, although I can see why you chose it for this story.
I'm excited to see how Hermione and Draco will come together. Perhaps a spicy salsa...? Hahah.
Good job!
Author's Response: Well you will just have to keep reading to see who Harry ends up with! ;)
A kiss?! I wasn't expecting that. But in a way, though, it felt right. Good job timing that. I can't wait to see what will happen.
Good job!!
