Reviews For O Mine Enemy
Author's Response: I'm sorry to be killing you but so happy you're loving it!!!! :)
Author's Response: Thank you for your review! (And sorry for taking so long to respond!) So here's the thing about Voldemort (at least, my Voldemort): he doesn't really understand the full range of human emotions or how valuable they can be to his enemies. I don't think he even understands that Snape loved Lily. To him, Snape had a physical desire for Harry's mum a long time back. It was fleeting and he got over it. It's barely a blip to Voldemort - a passing, amusing thought - and he has no idea what such information might meant to both our boys. So I can see him going either way - not revealing it because he doesn't think it's important, or casually revealing it without knowing what he's actually revealing. That's my take, anyway. :) Thank you for your kind words! I hope you're staying safe out there in this crazy world!
How can they get away now? My guess is that Harry needs to perform some miracle. Author's Response: I won't be like them, I promise! Even though 12 years ago, I was just like them... But let's ignore that. I'm older, wiser, and more determined now to finish. ;) Sorry it took so long to respond to your review though! This last month has been crazy in more ways than one! Stay safe out there!!
Author's Response: Thank you! (And sorry about the long delay in responding!) I'm glad you liked those parts. I'm having fun writing this section of the story. Well...I mean, I've been having fun with all of it, but you know. ;) I hope you are doing well and staying safe out there!!
Author's Response: I know...the cliffhangers are hard to resist. They're so fun in this part of the story! At least for me. Maybe not for you... ;) Thanks for reading!!
I hope there is plenty more or that maybe there will be a sequel. Please. Author's Response: Thanks!! I'm having a lot of fun writing it. :) We are at the climax of the story now, and then I will take however long I need to wrap things up and wind the story down. I have no intention of continuing the story into the school year except to get them settled in the new year. I do have some ideas for a sequel, but I don't know for sure if I will pen one yet. I'm focused on getting this story done and then taking a break, and then I'll see if the mood strikes. :)
I liked the little surprise for Bella, I imagine the deatheaters will become even more wary of Harry now, as will Voldemort. Snape's feeling guilty, well, he bloody has the cause to! Somehow, this chapter made me resent him, unlike Harry who is much too forgiving! The bloody man nurses his grudges as if they were his children, while using any excuse to abandon the one child he's a guardian of! So Harry's picking up Legitimency nicely - that's very interesting... Author's Response: I'd say "poor Snape," but he brought it on himself. I love Snape-as-Harry's-mentor stories in fanfiction, but I don't think he could shed his character flaws of bitterness, resentment, impatience, etc., overnight. I'm aiming for his relationship with Harry showing him that he has the ability to change (and to start on it)...but the actual change itself would be a slower process. You know, if Harry had more time to think in between the scariness and surprises and torture, I'm sure he'd be analyzing his newfound Legilimency ability like crazy! I'm sure when things settle down, he'll manage to be properly awed by his sudden progress and consider all the possibilities. Thank you for the regular reviews! I'm so glad you enjoy the weekly chapters!! It's been a lot of work, but it's been so so fun. Fair warning...I'm having a harder time keeping up, what with so many important/climactic scenes and tying up of loose ends coming up. In order to not stress myself and to not forget anything storywise, I may need to take an extra week in between updates for a couple chapters. I'll have a better idea by the end of the week, but I'll let you all know. Even though I love the idea of consistent weekly updates, my main goal is to simply to make sure people know exactly when to expect the next chapter and then to deliver. I hope you're having a fabulous week!
You have a way with words that just draws a person in. I couldn't help but cringe at each painful moment for him. GOD you're good. I really do need to go back and re-read this, it's been a while since I have... maybe that'll keep busy until your next update. Author's Response: I love thinking of it as an episode! :) I wanted to do regular updates (or at least let people know exactly when to expect an update) for the reason that it's more fun to follow a story that way. Plus it motivates me when I have a firm deadline and people holding me to it! Thank you for the compliment, and at the same time, I'm sorry the painful moments made you cringe! :) I'm so happy you're enjoying it so much, even enough to re-read it!! :) :)
Author's Response: Cherry pie IS delicious! Especially warm out of the oven, with a side of cold vanilla ice cream. Yummm. Yeah I decided to make Crabbe slightly smarter than his son (we all know it isn't like father like son, after all), and I figure Snape wouldn't impersonate somebody who had zero brain cells...unless he thought being underestimated would give him a leg up. In this case, I think he knows he stands a better chance of protecting Harry if he disguises himself as somebody with a certain amount of standing in Voldy's inner circle. Thank you for tuning in, regardless of chapter lengths! :)
Author's Response: Aw thank you so much! It means the world to hear that you're enjoying the story so much! I hope you continue to enjoy it. :) |
