Giftee: faynia and stormypups
Word Count: 17,000
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Harry/Snape, Harry/OC (Slightly)
Warnings: Nothing the rating doesn’t already imply.
Disclaimer: All Harry Potter characters herein are the property of J.K. Rowling and Bloomsbury/Scholastic. No copyright infringement is intended.
Summary: After a deadly encounter on the job, Harry is sacked and pressured to take a job as a professor at Hogwarts. Once he arrives, Snape is waiting with a plan of his own.

	Most excellent work. I like bit of humor with Fitzgerald and how much she doesn't like Snape. I really like how Snape and Harry interacted throughout the whole story.~Sophia (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I love Harry back at Hogwarts as a professor, bumbling his way through, and Snape's desire to help him with his problems! Very nice! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Fun fic. I always love a good Harry returns to Hogwarts fic myself. Severus is the same and yet not quite as rough around the edges, which is good. I like the way the girl sort of forces them to deal with each other. Surprisingly I really liked the way Harry put the moves on Olivianne. :D A real charmer. Great job. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Lovely story. I liked Harry teaching at Hogwarts and Severus not really knowing how to treat him at times. Frita was hilarious. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	What a great story. Clueless!Harry and proactive!Snape FTW. THeheh at Harry's bumbling beginning as a teacher. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Heee Bumbley!Teacher!Harry for the win!! Thank you for writing us such a nice cliche present. I wasn't a fan of the Oliveanne bits, but it ends well for our boys, so it's all good! Thank you!! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It didn't seem that cliché to me! I really liked your Snape and Harry. It was interesting to me that Harry's so easily able to get Olivianne to bed, yet hasn't seemed to have learned the way that people try to use him. Loved Snape's attempts to save him as well. :) (Reply to this) (Thread)

	A Paler Shade of Guilt maraudersaffair 2008-12-27 04:04 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, that is very interesting. However, after what happened, I say he'll have a breakthrough. Thanks so much for reading! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oooh, I liked this lots. Harry's smooth ways with Olivanne, his unexpected but intense obsession with Severus, his being taken in by Frita Fitzgerald -- very engaging! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I really liked this, Anon! A flirty Harry (with Olivia; and why did those scenes make me hot? LOL!), Professor Harry, actually, Harry here was perfect! So was Snape! Gah! I really really liked this! I can't wait to find out who you are. :D (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Oh, how I love that Harry didn't walk into the classroom and immediately know how to teach without any training. And Snape saving Harry because he was jealous and then being annoyed because Harry saved him again. So perfect. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	A Paler Shade of Guilt maraudersaffair 2008-12-27 04:07 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I knew that Harry wouldn't have a clue about teaching without training -- it just isn't realistic! Thanks so much for reading. :D (Reply to this) (Parent)
