Reviews For No Difference
Sorry this review's short, but I really must go to bed now. It's almost 2:30 and I have to get up early tomorrow. But I'll read on later! WONDERFUL STORY!! (in case you had any doubts) ;D Author's Response: This is one of those chapters where you can tell I'm a political science student and I chose my major because it's my passion. The Wizarding World is ripe for a revolution, the only problem was Voldemort was the wrong one. I'm really glad you're enjoying it so much!
I guess there is no chance Harry and Severus started a revolution? Pity. Mila Author's Response: I'm a political science major. I can't help myself. No revolutions, no, but they do produce enough discontent with the system that it loosened up and had elections because it feared revolution.
One question, though... why does Snape say he's a halfblood? Author's Response: It hasn't sank in. Also, according to JKR, halfbloods are defined as anyone with a muggle or muggleborn grandparent, so quarterbloods count as halfbloods.
Author's Response: Thank you!
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you like it.
I hope Harry will outgrow his teenage fat-headedness, but it looks like this could be a very long story before that could happen. Please keep writing! Author's Response: Thanks, I’m glad you like the story. Snape actually likes rubbing peoples’ faces (especially Harry’s face) in unpleasant truths, doesn’t he? Harry will look up “plutocratic” (even if I don’t mention it in the text) just because he doesn’t like Snape having the better of him. Harry will outgrow it, with a little (or a lot) of prodding) and he’s going to come to a turning point soon.
Author's Response: Thank you, I’m glad you like it. It was fun writing Snape and Harry feud while ostensibly talking about something else. Of course Hermione is a curious girl. She thinks things need to be solved.
The dynamics between Harry and Snape are also quite unique. It seems from Harry's point of view that he would be very happy to forget his relationship with Snape, but that Snape has a very hard time of it. It's actually quite realistic, in that Harry may biologically be a father, but mentally, he is inexperienced and unprepared. The idea of a child is simply a concept and nothing more to Harry, whereas the physically changed Snape is forced to deal with something more than a concept. I look forward to seeing how this relationship will develop. Author's Response: Thank you, I’m glad you’re enjoying it so far. While reading the books, I came to the conclusion that there is something very fishy with the way Wizarding government is structured, so I used it as an excuse to broaden Harry’s mind to Snape’s perspective. The dynamics between the two of them are where this story really differs from Severitus fics. Because, as you said, Snape’s the one who changes physically, he’s the one who has to come to grips with the situation immediately. Also, Snape is mature (or perhaps set in his ways, I’ve heard good arguments against actual maturity) and older than Harry, so with Harry as father, their customary hierarchy is somewhat reversed. Besides, they can’t stand each other. It’s fun to write them.
And "Yea!" for Snape acknowledging their relationship. Good job. Author's Response: Thanks, you can tell I'm a Political Science major, no? Really, though there is something fishy about Wizarding government. I'd like to visit Wizarding Britian, but I'm not to sure about living there. *Grin* I tried to have my political disgussion emotionally relevent to the story and to the characters, and I hpe I succedded. |
