Title: Chapter 4: The Reward of Giving 25 Feb 2008 3:52 am
Reviewer: Grimmjaw (Anonymous) [Report This]
    I had to read this chapter four times in a row before the europhia finally vanished. I basked in the feeling for a more morements. You did the scene with Sirius very well. I loved the tones of the transitions going from fluff to ominous and the random sequence of memories. And I loved that Sirius's transformation was revealed to the class, but his innocence left ambiguous. It's really rather ironic that it seems like Harry's primary motivation for going through with this apology was to save Sirius only to damn him with giving away sensitive knowledge to the wizarding world.
    The only thing I found really off was "The Syltherins were guilty of open mouths as they watched the memory ‘Pampered Potter’ and his aunt." I thought it was too dramatic; i'd understand if it was a Slytherin student but not the group. And there's never been any indication as to whether they thought him pampered at home or not. But then again, the school and teachers tend to indulge Harry.
    One aspect I really appreciated was your description of the class's reaction, the moments where you described them in groups (Slytherin's certainty that Harry would hex the younger student) to when you didn't distinguish from Slytherin or Gryffindor. Like when Harry was locked out: "Slowly looks of realization were spreading amongst the confused students."
    I can't get over the memories. I feel like singing praise. Padfoot's morning greeting, Harry's preemptive strike against Dudley in the previous chapter, the hope roused from a slyterin when harry's own house questioned him--it was wonderful! I wish there was more.
    Please update soon! The rest of my day is going to feel insignificant and empty now. I can't wait to read your next chapter. I want to see the class's reaction; it's too bad how quickly secrets travel at Hogwarts.

    I must say that you really know how to flatter a writer! I don't think I'll ever get my head back to it's originall size, Lol.

    Your right though, the Syltherins reactions as a entire class were overdone. I'll fix that quickly, :).  Thanks for pointing it out. I found more memories that I wished I would have added to the chapter after I had posted it. I'm still mad at myself for not thinking of some of them sooner, sigh, oh well. I was happy with the Sirius memory as well, I always thought that Sirius should have been more...um...fatherly? towards Harry. Well, maybe he'll get a chance to do so in this fic. Harry's secrets will travel like the flu.

    Thanks again so much for the reviews!

    I'm so happy you updated! I was quite upset and worried when it took you so long, but I'm glad you updated. I enjoy reading this story very much, it's got a interesting plot, you've got great ideas, you do the characters amazingly well, you've got such a great story here. I'm glad you used some of my suggestions for memories and I was happy with the others you used as well. You did excellent detail with them and cut them off at good times. I LOVE long chapters and was absolutly pleased with the length of this one. You did an amazing job. You are a really good writer, I envy you with your great ideas and the fact that you posted them ^_^. PLEASE post the next chapter soon!

    P.S. Interesting 'long tailed cat' comment, though my cat wouldn't approve, lol.

    Probably your best chapter yet, but you need to check your spelling all over the place, especially "Slytherin" which you have as "Syltherin" most of the time. I'm really enjoying the story though!

    Author's Response:

    Okay, I'll make sure to check that, thanks!

    Wow! That was an excellent chapter! I loved all the memories that you chose. I'm especially glad after all that, Snape has decided to continue Harry's Occlumency lessons. This is a great story so far and I hope you can update again soon! :)

    Author's Response:

    Thanks so much Alexis! I'm writing the next chapter now and I'll get it to you as soon as I feel I've tortured you enough. Lol, Just jokin!

    Thanks for the review!
