Geek! Geek, geek, geek, geek! I love that the Bee was what prompted you! (And I see how quickly you hit upon a *coughs* theme.) *snorts*

I answer all the comments, so . . . . ;)

Roses are red,
Manatees are grey,
I love this tale more
than words can say!

"Madid" will now be an unfortunate addition to my lexicon, so thanks a bundle for that. And as many lines as I found amusing, I found this equally sweet: a Severus who likes and wants kids, who's not terribly good at expressing himself even though he desperately wants to be better at it, and a man who actually enjoys the Weasley twins. This is such a marvelous way to start the day! Thanks ever so much for writing it.

Fun poem, it made me squee!-and I'm so glad that you liked the fic; I had a good time writing it once inspiration finally struck. :P

"Madid" is a better word than "moist," but we have other, better options:

Madefaction \Mad`e*fac"tion\, Madefication \Mad`e*fi*ca"tion\,
n. [L. madefacere to make wet; madere to be wet + facere to
make: cf. F. mad['e]faction.]
The act of madefying, or making wet; the state of that which
is made wet. [R.] --Bacon.

Madefy \Mad"e*fy\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. Madefied; p. pr. & vb.
n. Madefying.] [Cf. F. mad['e]fier, L. madefacere. See
Madefaction.]
To make wet or moist. [R.]
[1913 Webster]

Thank you for your lovely comments! *huggles*

This was great fun! The way she handles his odd behaviour shows how well Hermione and Severus are suited but I really think he could have made a better poetry potion than George..

[iulia_linnea]

Yay! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :D

Poor, preoccupied Severus-I suppose his impatience got in the way of his good sense. ;P

This was so much fun to read. I almost felt bad for Severus. Almost.

...dashes to dictionary to check on a few words...

You and I both!

Oh, my goodness, yay! I'm so pleased by your thoughts; thank you for sharing them! *dances*
