Reviews For Savior
Seeing Harry finally eat something outside of toast feels like victory. I hope your friend Steph made it safely through her procedure and is recovered and well.
Kinda makes you wonder what the sorting hat saw in Harry's mind, doesn't it? Poor Snape, again, talking to people who aren't there - I half expected a ghost or Peeves to wander by, "Talking to yourself is the first sign of insanity." Ha! Author's Response: The sorting hat won't come up again for a bit, I'm afraid. Snape doesn't really have anyone to talk to though, does he? I'm afraid all of the other profs dislike him because of his temperament and Slytherin nature.
Author's Response: Thanks for the review, I'm glad you've liked it.
Author's Response: Snape's exceptionally rational - I see him as an Enlightenment sort of guy rather than a Romantic figure, if you know what I mean. He won't venture any strong emotions unless there's a good logical reason for doing so. I like intelligent Harry too ... the canon Harry that's impulsive and angry just drives me crazy sometimes. I hope I'm not taking it too far but I've at least tried to justify it so that makes everything okay .... right?
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad you liked it.
Author's Response: I don't think any realistic Snape could just change his mind and his emotions in a flash, do you? I'm enjoying using his viewpoint because I think it gives a bit more scope to the interaction between the two characters ... he's more mature (in some ways at least) and thus has more depth to his character that Harry hasn't had time to develop yet.
Author's Response: I dislike those stories as well ... one of the reasons why I wanted to write this. Thanks for the review, I'm glad to hear that you're enjoying it.
This chapter was not quite as emotionally painful to read, which was good. I, at least, needed a bit of a break. Something about the way you write this Harry is very painful for me to read. I mean that as a compliment. The descriptions and Snape's recognition and realizations of what's going with Harry are particularly wrenching. I do like the way you're very gradually changing Snape, even as he tries to deny it. I'm curious about what you'll do about the canon of PS/SS. Will Harry have any of the same experiences as in canon? Will he be strong enough? What about Hermione and Ron? Just wondering if you plan to use much of canon. Author's Response: Yes, some parts of canon will be worked in ... others will be ignored (for what I hope are good reasons). Hermione and Ron will be making bigger appearances later on but Harry's just a bit too unstable to deal well with them now. Thanks for the review, I appreciate the feedback! |
