Reviews For For The Boy Who Has Everything
Author's Response: Oh, it's quite a lot worse than that. Harry's making a very unfortunate mistake there.
Poor Harry, from this new POV the twins are indeed evil *pouts* *wants to comfort Harry* Great story :)
My favorite aspect to the story is Harry's deteriorating relationship with Lupin as a result of Sirius's death. Harry spends so little time mourning him in the Sixth book, I hated it. However I dislike some of Harry's reactions in the earlier chapter. I can't (and don't like to) picture Harry clinging to someone after they've spite him. I can understand the reasonining; in Ootp, harry deeply mourns the loss of Ron's friendship. However, Harry stands firm in his stance that Ron should admit wrong (at least until he sees Ron is ready to apologize). Lupin tries and fails to show compassion to Harry, often turning cold and bordering on showing outright dislike. Whatever his reaction, I like the conflict in his growing distance with Lupin. I love these lines: "He'd learned at the Dursleys that when someone was this angry with him, the only thing he could do was wait it out. Of course they didn't believe him. No one ever did." It's nice to see that the behaviors Harry's learned from the Dursleys apply to those close to Harry. I hope you update soon!
I will read slash as long as it isn't Harry, and is well written with an ingenuous plot--"Blood Magic" comes to mind. Can't stand PWP, absurdities such as mpreg, and/or Draco Malfoy, a hugely boring (to me) character who figures in a lot of them. My objection is not to homosexuality, but to the fact most authors don't write a gay couple but a man/woman (or even woman/woman) in a disguised form. Their cluelessness goes beyond amusing to stupid. Your story has not (so far) made that mistake.
Tonk's little not-to-subtle reminder was well done as well. Ron's going to be a real git about all of this isn't he? The twins too. Poor Harry. Nothing seems to go right for him does it? Of course, if it did that weould be really boring and nobody would ever have read the 7 books and then where would we be? *tee-hee*
