Reviews For No Difference
Author's Response: Hermione has always had a desperate drive to know things, and it's something I share with her. Consciously, she's convinced herself that her anxiety at being confronted with a mystery is genuine worry. Harry likes Ginny because of his raving Oedipus complex and because in his mind, she represents the whole of the Weasley family. Not a very healthy reason for attraction, but there you go.
I'm going on, wonderful chappie! Author's Response: They keep coming together and almost, almost coming to an understanding, and then no. Made me feel really bad for them at times.
But HA! The beginning with the fire was hilarious! I just had to snort the whole way through. And the part where the owl eats the rabbit in front of Harry and Ginny was great. Those sort of things don't bother me much (I live on a farm) so I love to see other people's faces when something "gross" like that happens. XD I could just see their faces. “Thank you for the Foe-Glass,” he smiled nastily.- Teehee! I just love the classic Snape...even though he's really a Potter in this. I literally burst out laughing. Another goody! I'm off to the next! Author's Response: I know, I felt really awful for killing her, and killing her that way, and she was the only relative he had who he had a decent relationship with, and I'm really mean. I don't live on a farm, but I live out in the country, and until we got one of our dogs, we had a real rodent problem. She was wild for a long time before we got her, and she loves to hunt, so she took care of it for us very quickly. I can't count how many times she's shown us still alive kills, or swallowed something in front of us. I've also rescued a songbird that she had torn the wing off of. He had to have it amputated the rest of the way, but he now lives a very happy life as the spoiled pet of a vet tech. Poor Amy. She gets so confused when we don't partake in the bounty she brings.
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!
The whole relation of Snape and Harry is just so FUN to read! They're so snarky, and I'm still trying to imagine a Snape looking like Harry. I think I've got an image, but it tends to fade away when I always see the name Snape. (plus I just REALLY love Alan Rickman) Although it's like 2 in the morning now, I'm going on. You've really got me hooked! Author's Response: I had a very good time writing Snape try to justify to himself his mixed feelings about his ability to fly. Very damaged fellow. Ah well, Hufflepuff made them work hard for that win... We all love Alan!
But oh, Hermione, you nosey little thing! She's gunna try and figure it all out, isn't she? I kinda hope she doesn't, but at the same time I hope she does. And I do feel that Ginny deserved a detention. (I know, I'm mean!) Another great one! Author's Response: I had to gear myself up for this chapter, and especially that speech emotionally. As soon as I knew I was having Snape teach, I knew I'd have to write him a killer first day speech, on par with the ones in canon. I don't know how well I did, but I rather like it. I call it "Snape terrifies with mathematics" but then I'm a political science student. We're obsessed with statistics. Hermione's going to be a problem... And so is Ginny. That young lady deserves a lot of detentions, really.
“Are you by any chance related to our Harry Potter?” Severus decided he didn’t much like Flitwick either.- Poor man! XD I find these new teachers interesting, especially this Blenheim...he could be a bit of trouble...though I don't know why, just a feeling. Parkinson and Malfoy are disgusting together. >_< Draco can be okay, but the two of them together is just gross. But I'm interesting in where this goes... Another goody! :D Author's Response: Writing Snape trying to socialize is far more fun than it should be. I find Malfoy and Parkinson a hilarious, and yes, repugnant, villain couple. Stalk was one of my favorite almost OCs when writing this. He made such a excellent Slytherin head of house. Like throwing the cat amongst the pidgins permanently.
Poor poor Severus. I really can't help but feel bad for him. He's been Snape all his life, and on the verge of forty he suddenly has a REAL midlife crisis to worry about. Poor man. But how is he going to act? He can't be all Snape like or everyone will know! And is his voice different or the same? But at least he has Lily's nose...that's a good thing, right? Poor man. Another fantastic chapter! :D Author's Response: Part of me wants to say "oh yes, poor Snape, Harry fights back" but the rest of me wants to say he's dealing with too much to worry about fairness, everyone lay off! His voice is not the same. That kind of voice requires a large nose to echo around in (one of the benefits of them, says the girl with a beak). Poor man, he lost that great voice.
And poor Sev and Minerva! Death threats, hexes...sounds like a nasty business. And I did feel bad that Sev felt sad about being let go. I still love Snape, even if he was a DE (could you tell that? lol) But he and Harry are just too fun to read about together! XD I was laughing and talking to my computer the whole way through this one. Very very good!! I can't wait to see what happens next, so I won't!! WONDERFUL chappie!! Author's Response: The Wizarding World is not a polite place. I love to throw two characters who hate each other into a story together and watch them battle it out. Can you tell how much fun I have doing it?
But I'm almost surprised Harry didn't name his owl Eileen since it just looked mad all the time, even when it wasn't. Oh well, like Hermione said, it's his owl. Interesting name though... But I'm glad everyone's coming together. Another great chappie!! :D Author's Response: Yeah, that does make him just a bit happy. Slughorn’s replacement, not so much. On the other hand, I don’t think he liked Tobias Snape’s family any either. If he named it Eileen, Snape would have murdered him in his sleep. |
