Hi, I need a beta reader (imagine that) for an HG/SS story. It's an unofficial 'inspired by a challenge' story. I have paraphrased the challenge as follows: While sharing a 'girl moment,' Hermione, Ginny and Luna decide to cast a Pairing-Plight [sic] Troth Charm on themselves. Each places in a bowl or cauldron one flower with sugar and spice and everything nice ['everything nice' is not only entirely subjective, it may also require an exceedingly large cauldron!] a snail and puppy-dog tail, then they each have to say a rhyme. The rhyme may be silly and original, or apropos to the girl who says it. The results don't come out the way at least two out of the three girls expect. Who is now magically betrothed to whom? How do the girls' newly-betrothed partners react, especially since it's a magical binding? And why is the Ministry so pleased?

Story title: The Troth Will Out
Summary: Ginny and Luna trick Hermione into participating in a spell that identifies a witch's soul mate and binds her to him for a year and a day. Ginny's intentions are good, but when it all goes pear shaped, Hermione and Severus have to try to undo the spell, which forms part of a matriarchal oral tradition, and as such, isn't in any books anywhere.
Rating: Haven't decided yet. Have never written smut before. Could this be it, or will I gloss over the hot, panting, sticky bits? (Hey, I'm a Sagittarian -- our warcry is, "Procrastinate NOW!")

Warnings: None that I can think of, except possibly my own sarcasm.
Other information: You may have guessed from the email that I'm an Aussie so I may require a spot of Brit-picking. I can tell the difference between south of England and South Carolina, however, so I promise not to append "is all" instead of "that's all" at the end of sentences, or treat the noun "disrespect" as a verb. |
