Reviews For O Mine Enemy
Author's Response: I appreciate your POV on the progressing relationship, because I know it's not going fast at all. The way I see it, one week is not enough to get past 5 years of mutual hatred without pulling a fast one on readers. And you readers are way too smart for that. Sometimes I worry people might get impatient, but here's the deal...if you just stick with me, I'll get there. ;) Thanks for the review!
Author's Response: Softie Snape...aw! Like a big fluffy teddy bear? Hehe! He might balk at that description... Thanks for the review!
I like this Snape. He isn't heartless, but he's still a harsh person. You write him very well; too many writers can't get his voice right, but you do. I also enjoy how I can feel what Harry's life is like. Like, how claustrophobic Grimmauld Place is, which made the visit from Ron and Hermione so wonderful (to the point where I as the reader was delighted by it too!) Anyway, well done. You're writing a very absorbing story, and I like how it looks to be a Snape mentoring Harry story; they can make a pretty formidable team if they want (only they don't know it yet!) Author's Response: Thank you for the review, Ellie K. I'm glad the dream sequence made sense...whew! :) And I can't tell you what it means to hear that you like my version of Snape. And the visit from Harry's friends. Please keep reviewing - I really want to know what you think as the story continues to develop!
But that said, I really think the brilliancy of this story lies within your ability to keep Snape in character. I'm just really, really loving this story! Author's Response: Perfect? *blush* Can't get a much better compliment than that! :) I love that you love my Snape - he really is fun to write, so I always cross my fingers that he's fun to read as well. Thanks for the review!
Author's Response: Wow - I ask for chocolate and I get skittles! I love it - what else ya got? ;)
hmmm...i have apparently gained a penchant to identify myself by a definite article. how odd. anywho, lovely chapter! i will, as always, proceed by going through and listing all of my favorite snape moments...whee! mind you, i just realized that would be rather impossible, seeing as i would end up quoting the "snape presence" verbatim. and i'd imagine you would not turn to reviews to go through that...you'd merely scour the story. hmph. life isn't fair...*pouts* i also just realized that your snape is rubbing off of me, i think...i'm a bit more sarcastic then usual! all good though...sarcasm is fun! squee! and i can still go through other stuff i adore about this, so no worries there...for one, snape! and then, there is, er...you know..snape. and then, of course, there's our favorite potions master! oh, and did i mention... eurgh. not going anywhere...must focus... oy, i really want to force harry to have an all out talk with snape about his dreams! and then they can have a whole bonding moment, in which case i can coo happily from my little reader's corner until my virtual snape kicks me out and makes me disembowel dead smelly toads for an equally smelly potion. delightful, isn't it?! yes, i agree all the way, harry. the earth must be knocked straight out of its revolution before snape dearest would ever lose his insulting talents! poor you, getting all traumatized when he failed to deliver... Author's Response: THE belle - as you will forevermore be known to me - thank you once more for such a long review. :) Glad to hear you liked the 'presence Snape'! Life isn't fair - you liked so much of it that I didn't get to read it in your review. Hmph. Well, my first impulse was to write so few enjoyable lines next time that you wouldn't have a hard time deciding which to put in your review, but I think that may be a bad idea. So instead, I'll just thank you for the compliment. ;) Oh, but don't overuse the sarcasm bit. It's fun, but remember - no one particularly likes Snape in his world. (Well, not yet...) ;) Although I can tell that in our world, THE belle is a definite fan. Yeah, I want to force Harry to have an all out talk with Snape too, but he won't even listen to his own fanfic writer! So stubborn, those two!
Author's Response: Thanks! I was worried about the dream sequence being too confusing. Still worried, actually, but moving on to the next chapter, which is a lot more straightforward... ;) Thanks for the review.
Author's Response: That's what I like about canon Snape - as horrible as he is to everyone around him, he is so incredibly intelligent. I'm glad I was able to preserve some of that in my story. Thanks for the review!
Author's Response: I just hope they don't do serious damage to each other first...I'd hate to see the bonding take place in the hospital wing, wouldn't you? Well, on second thought, Madam Pomfrey could probably do a sufficient job of restraining them... Anyway, this was my long way of saying thank you for reviewing!
Perfect Hermione voice. And now that Harry is cheered up a little, maybe he and Snape can approach a little better understanding. Author's Response: Hehe, thank you. I love Hermione - I've been looking forward to writing her (and hoping I could pull it off). I'm glad you liked it - Thanks for the review! |
