Wow, this is scorching hot *fans self*, but I think my absolute favorite things are the trust Hermione has in seeking Harry out to ask for this "favor" and the relationship Severus and Harry have that they can be with her, together, just the once, and then everyone's the better for it but also able to treat the experience appropriately, it's still all good between them. Very nicely done.

	Thank you! ^_^ Liking the trust and relationship dynamics between the three of them has been a recurring theme from commenters, and that pleases me. I didn't set out to write it that way (it was actually intended to be more of a fun romp), but once I got into it, the characters wouldn't have it any other way. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Aw, poor Hermione - who's she going to find now that the bar has been raised to such a degree? At least she was brave enough to ask, and now she knows what to ask for. Hot and sweet and strong. (Reply to this) (Thread)

That did occur to me as I was writing this, and actually had several elements of it in an earlier draft, but eventually took it out because it was shifting this to Hermione's story instead of Harry's. Instead, I like to think this just opened Hermione up enough to see what's possible, and instead of staying stuck on this one experience, she decided to raise her own bar and "demand" one of her own.

	Kudos to Hermione for getting up her courage and asking for what she wanted. I like how both Harry and Severus go out of their way to make sure she feels secure and wanted. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you! I'm glad a lot of people are pointing that out as something they appreciate. I initially intended this to be more of a PWP, but after I dug into it, the characters made it into something more. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I love the way this was handled and how easily Hermione was welcomed by both - very hot! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you! ^_^ I'm glad the dynamic worked for you. I know a threesome with a girl, of all things, can often be a hard sell in this community, but there was something appealing to me about a loving, established relationship that can also expand to encompass others, even if it's just a one-time thing.

	Glad to see it 'in print'! As I'd said before, this isn't my normal romantic 'pairing' but you've really brought it to life in a big way. The characterization is realistic and I really enjoy the warmth and affection that is obvious in their interactions. The sex scenes are steammmmmmmmyyyyyyy! (Reply to this) (Thread)

Thank you! I'm so glad you took a chance on it, despite it being outside your norm. I think the concept of a het threesome is a hard sell to this community, but my hope was that people would give it a chance, and see that it's really got a warm, fuzzy Snarry at its core.

And thanks for all your thoughts and feedback along the way. I told you you'd break me of some of my habits. Heh. ;)
