Part 1... just what is Hermione's hand doing under the desk? Lol =P

(I love these by the way, they're really cute and are Snape wins, so yay!)

just what is Hermione's hand doing under the desk?

I don't know. I think maybe she's just trying to help Ron find his wand. :P

Whatever she's doing, it looks like it's about to earn her detention!

... which is possibly how they got to Part II.... *ponders* =P

Oh, very nice. I really like Hermione's robe in the second one, and of course Snape's sneer in the first and smirk in the second. Nice changes, one to the other. :)

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

This was such an awesome prompt. And Hermione managed to turn Snape's frown upside down!!!!

[starduchess.livejournal.com]

BTW, have you seen this Snape/Lily==Snape/Hermione video? Totally awesome.

Wow! I love the parallels drawn here. Mmm... yes indeed!

I love these. The transformation of them and juxtaposition is lovely. And while it makes me sad to see Ron all alone back there, I know there are several people in the wings waiting to comfort him.

You poor conflicted Ron and Snape lover! I don't know how you manage.

But yes, sad, studly Ron is not going to have any problem finding someone who wants to make him feel all better!

[tjs-whatnot.livejournal.com]

Haha, right? In my world Snape and Ron are looking fondly at each other and Hermione is behind them rolling her eyes and huffing indignantly...or in my DREAM world, they are all there together just digging on each other.

LOL! What is the name of this crazy ship? Snon?

[tjs-whatnot.livejournal.com]

Um...Sneasley?

The Greasy Ginger?

Dreamy McDreamies?

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

The Greasy Ginger? Oh man!

icon love! :)

[pythia-delphi.livejournal.com]

I love the expressions on each of them in each pic!

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

I loved making Snape smile. :D

[christev.livejournal.com]

Oh, Shannon, these are WONDERFUL!! As to young Hermione's hand, I'm SURE she's just pulling Ron's hand back up to keep writing his homework. :D :D :D

I love how you've aged all three of them for the second panel - Hermione's expressions are so similar, but definitely she's grown up very well (hair & robes just beautiful). Poor Ron - your job might be cool, but you're not getting *this* girl!

And Snape's expression in the second panel is... P E R F E C T.

(I also *really* love his robes and soooo want to unbutton them admire them from a distance!)

This comment made my day. I'm so glad you picked up on these details and parallels.

[christev.livejournal.com]

I'd like to pimp this on my LJ - may I copy the pics, paste them them in my post and link them to here?

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

Oh yes. All options are fine. Let me know if you'd like small 150x150 icons to link. I didn't end up using the ones I made since the images were already pretty small.

[logospilgrim.livejournal.com]

As always... Beautiful :-)

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

Thank you, professor!

[droxy.livejournal.com]

WIN!!!!!!!

This is just fab!

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDD

I've missed drawing SS/HG and these were such awesome prompts.

[morethansirius.livejournal.com]

These are marvelous! Snape is perfectly in character with his sneer and his smirk. Fabulous hair for all three. I especially love Hermione's wild childhood curls that have been slightly tamed by her older self.

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

Thank you. This was such a terrific prompt - it's such a great challenge to age up different characters.

[pern-dragon.livejournal.com]

Gods bless christev for this prompt and bless you for turning out such a lovely pair of drawings! I ADORE Snape's smirk in the second one, and Hermione's dress is divine! I can't wait to see what else you did, darlin. *fangirls you liek woah* And enjoy the hell out of your trip to China! We'll look forward to pics and stories and more posts from you when you get back. *lots of hugs to tide you over till you come back to us after your trip* :D

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

I think I'm going to need to make a post begging for prompts because I'm bringing all my sketching supplied to China with me. I'm in such a mood for SS/HG right now.

Also, I've been reading PoH on my Kindle and am about 40% of the way through it, so I'll need you to remind me again of which scene(s) you'd like me to draw, so I can start working on that.

[pern-dragon.livejournal.com]

Oh, yay for more SSHG drawing while you're in China being all inspired! As for what my request is, I'll email you directly... :D

Over here at the rec of christev. These are marvelous! I love Hermione's and Severus's robes and expressions in the 2nd picture. I love that you gave Ron curly hair--I've never really thought of him that way. Did I say that I REALLY love Snape's expression in the 2nd pic?

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

For some reason, the idea of a curly-haired Ron just sticks with me. And I'm so glad you like Snape's second expression. I usually draw him scowling. Lucky Hermione to be able to coax such a warm smile from him.

[kittylefish.livejournal.com]

those are lovely. i like how ron's posture in the second one mimic's snape's in the first. mostly, i love snape's expressions in both, and hermione's almost as much. (here by way of christev's rec.)

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

I loved the parallel in christev's prompts and really did want Ron to swap with Severus. And I had a lot of fun putting a slight smile on Snape's lips.

[geminiscorp.livejournal.com]

(here by way of christev's rec) These are amazing!!

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

Working on my sshg exchange piece really put me in the mood to read and draw sshg!

[natasnape.livejournal.com]

Beautiful story of their life. I love how you aged them. The changes are subtle so they are recognizable as the same person, yet pronounced to see that not only did Ron grow, he matured. He is forlorn in the second panel, but kind of resigned. It is leagues away from the animalistic, expression of someone willing to fight that Snape has on the first panel. Although, I think that his motivation was that of a teacher, it shows the passion.

For a SSHG shipper, your art encompasses everything I look for in those characters.

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

Thank you for such detailed comments. Drawbles don't always work out quite as you hope, and I'm so glad others see the similarity in each character as they age/change. This was such a wonderful set of prompts.

[imhilien.livejournal.com]

I saw this art recommended on another site... nicely done. :D

[pennswoods.livejournal.com]

Thank you. And such a lovely icon.
