Ever wonder 'Why don't they just do that' "A lot of the greatest wizards haven't got an ounce of logic." Harry and Hermione, however, were raised in the muggle world and are therefore fully capable of thinking things through...A collection of of one-shots

Translation of Sioban Parker's "Cloîtré". During fifth year, Harry is stunned to discover that in a previous life he was a novice in a monastery. And that Snape was there with him… HP/SS SLASH. **Please note that Sioban Parker has written a sequel to this story (Dec 2012). Once I've translated it, it will be posted under my account as a translation.**

A Post DH story, ignoring the Epilogue. Snape lives! HP/HG and SS/OC
