Reviews For Emerald Eyes
Just a thought that I forgot to mention. As I just said: excellent story and I have no doubt that whatever you come up with will be wonderful. :) Author's Response: Hi again! Thanks for the suggestion ;)
In regaurds to a scene between Severus and Malfoy: I have mixed feelings. On one hand I'd love the scene and you would do a marvolous job writing it. On the other hand, I can't imagine it fitting into your story. Your story is very much about Severus and Harry. Even the scenes that don't have both Harry and Severus somehow concern the other character, even if it's just Harry thinking about Snape or Snape making a comment about Harry. I honestly can't see a scene between Severus and Malfoy fitting in flawlessly. It would seem out of place. However, if you really want to do the scene (and that is the most important thing anyway) I'm sure you will find a way to make the scene work. :) Anyway, I love the story and this chapter. And short of killing off every character and ending the story tomorrow I'll continue reading regaurdless. Please update soon. :) Author's Response: Thanks so much for your feedback! I think you're right about the Malfoy/Snape scene, and the more I sit here and think about it, the more certain I'm becoming about how I'm going to handle it. But even if I wrote a scene between Malfoy and Snape, it wouldn't be a bonding scene. I don't think I made that clear. Harry would definitely fit into the mix. I felt quite sorry for Harry as I was writing the scene after his punishment. I figured he'd be mortified. Poor little Harry is just a bundle of emotions and hates showing them.
I enjoyed reading Snape's part too. Him trying to work out how to deal with an overly distraught Harry. He tried a few different angles before finding the right one. Now, will he figure out why it worked? Thanks very much for the update. I know I'll enjoy any continuation of this story with or without a Draco scene. Author's Response: Yes, you're definitely spot-on about the 'dueling' scene. I think Draco is the kind of person who taunts just to make people angry--especially Harry. He's such a little jerk. I know people would like to see Draco brought to justice. I'll try to create a subtle reference without making the story feel like it's missing something or ruining the whole vibe. And Snape did try out different ways of getting Harry's attention before finally finding one that worked. You picked that up ;) Thanks so much for taking the time out to review!
As to the scene between Severus and Draco, I wouldn't mind seeing one - it would be rather interesting - but I wonder how it would fit into the next chapter without seeming awkward. I can't think of how to word that better, but please know that I didn't mean it as an insult to your skills as a writer. I really envy your talent! I cannot wait until the next chapter comes out. It's always the highlight of my day when I get to read a new bit. Bravo to you! :] Author's Response: No, I didn't take that as an insult at all! ;) I think it makes perfect sense, and that's why I asked readers' opinions. I wasn't going to write one, but I didn't want to make it seem as if there was a giant plot-hole or anything. I think inferring what went on would be better. We'll see if I can pull it off, I guess...lol Thank you so much for your interest in my story! This was one of those chapters where I was unsure of how people would react to it. But I'm really happy you liked it! I just finished reading 'A Place for Warriors' by owlsaway, and I just had to shake my head at my Snape--thinking he was straying way out of character; however, I suppose in a mentoring story such as this one, Snape would have to soften a bit--just in his own Snape-like way. Again, I really appreciate your kind encouragement. I'll work hard to post the new chapter soon!
Author's Response: I know it--and that's mainly the reason that I have asked for everyone's opinion. I've had mixed feedback about it, but I think I'll write it in a way that satisfies both sides of the coin--hopefully ;) Thanks very much for leaving a review! It's always good to know that people are still enjoying.
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm also partial to Harry and Snape. I'm glad you like the characterization in this story. I do work the hardest on that, I believe. I'll try to hurry with the next chapter!
Author's Response: I'm working on it ;) I think what I'm planning on doing will get the job done but not focus heavily on Draco and Sev. But you're right: He doesn't let them get away with anything it seems--at least not behind the scenes, as Harry has found out. Thanks for reading and leaving a review!
Author's Response: LOL. Draco is such a little slimeball. Harry most likely feels like he's getting trampled on right about now. He's wrong, of course. But we can't help but feel sorry for him. Thanks for the review!
Author's Response: I know, Harry's quite pitiful in this chapter, isn't he? I haven't been very nice to him. lol. I suppose I figured, like me, that some people would want to see Draco get his; however, I may just make it a brief reference scene. Harry/Snape interaction is my favorite, after all ;) Thanks so much for the review!
I think a Severus/Draco interaction would add to the story. Author's Response: Thank you! It was meant to be fast-paced. I don't really like dragging out scenes--well, certain ones--and this was one of those kind. I'm still trying to decide about the Draco scene. I've had more No's than Yes's, actually. Again, I appreciate your review! |
