Phew! Two years? She withstood two years of that without knowing his name? Oh, I have so many questions about these two: How did Hermione figure out that this was what she needed? Was Severus the only man who ever served as her Master? What was their friendship like at the Ministry when they began this relationship (unbeknownst to her, known to him), and how has their friendship changed in the last two years?

Maybe my favorite part is this description of Hermione's body: round arse and muscled thighs. I feel like fan culture often represents all love interests as stick thin, and I like the idea the this Hermione has a curvy, strong body. And clearly, based on Severus's response "one hour later," he likes this idea, too!
