Reviews For Emerald Eyes
Author's Response: Thanks for the review! I wanted there to be a reason for Harry's defiance, and as of now the poor kid has a lot that he's holding in.
definately the longer chapters. i always get so sad when the chapter is over because i want to keep reading and reading and reading Author's Response: Cool. I enjoy reading longer chapters as well. I just don't like it when authors ramble, and I hope I'm not doing that...lol. Thanks for the fb!
Anyway, I loved the chapter (as usual). I loved how Harry was so full of bravado on his way to Dumbledore's office only to have it peter out once he was there. How many times that same thing has happened to me in my life!!! And the poor boy's emotions are so jumbled. First, it's righteous anger at the fact that Snape has the right to punish him in such a personal way, quickly followed by confusion and hope? that the man cares enough to give him a sweater and potions when he is sick. Definitely a mixed message to someone who has been raised by the Dursleys. The boy is simply not used to the idea that an adult cares enough about him to take the time to actually care for him. Loved the interaction between Harry and Snape. Harry definitely has to keep on his toes around that man. And yet, Snape surprises him again by giving him another potion. I think my favorite part of this chapter is when Snape asks "What are you up to, Potter?" I bet it drives him crazy to know that Harry's plotting never ceases. Anyway, can't wait for the next chapter. And congrats on the nomination. You truly deserve it. Take care..... Author's Response: Yes, I lost all of the reviews for chapter 7 :( But I appreciate you taking the time to write another one--an excellent one at that! I love the fact that you get exactly what I'm trying to convey in my story, especially with Harry and his jumbled emotions. Although I know he's supposed to be brave, I'm always surprised at how stoic he is in the books--especially years one and two. I enjoyed writing that part from Snape's perspective. He's quite intuitive. Thanks again for reviewing (again...lol). I appreciate it :)
Good chapter, as usual. I think I say this every time, but I simiply love your Harry and how well you write him. I tend to avoid Harry-point-of-view in my story, because I can't seem to write him properly. Your's is awesome of course. I liked the conversation with Dumbldore though I'm incredibly exhausted right now and can't remember why. But it was good. Anyway, great chapter and please update soon. Author's Response: lol...sorry about your exhaustion. Thanks for reviewing again! I'm not really sure where I get my inspiration for writing Harry. Sometimes I base it off of myself as a teenager (I know I'm a girl, but still...). And again, I just try to make it realistic. Thanks again for sticking with the story :)
Author's Response: Thanks! Can't wait to read yours, by the way ;)
Author's Response: Thanks for the review :)
By the way, I'm a bookseller for Barnes and Noble and a writer in my spare time. If you want check out some of my fics posted on www.harrypotterfanfiction.com. One is a novel about Severus and what might have been if certain things had happened to him before he became a professor and the other is a short story. My penname is Snapegirl. Reviews are always welcome, keep up the wonderful work! Author's Response: Thanks for such a great review! I'll definitely check out your writing.
Author's Response: I'm glad you're enjoying it! Writing Harry's thoughts is my favorite. It's quite fun. lol. This chapter was one where I kind of sat back and thought..."hmmm...is it too soon to make Snape seem a bit caring?"...and then I thought.."Well, yeah...better make the must as Snape-like as possible." So hopefully I accomplished that. Thanks so much for reading and reviewing! P.S. Go write a new chapter! I love your story! lol.
I think I sympathise with Harry`s state; he was tired and ill; and Snape start his speech of consequences and so on; in is place I`d be like come on shut up and let me be I don`t want to hear you right now!, but of course that wouldn`t be wise at all ;) Well I´m look` forward to next chap. I want to know if Harry will talk with Dumbledore...and if he`d make his way into Slytherin`s common room... It`s a good beggining. I`m glad that you plan to continue. Keep writing. Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing! Yeah, I don't think Snape ever explains himself, even in canon. Of course, that's not going to fly with Harry as Snape will soon find out. Dumbledore will make an appearance in the next chapter, and as for the Slytherin common room...well, we'll see ;) I'm glad you're enjoying the story! I should have a new chapter out by Saturday. |
