Reviews For Lily's Charm: The Gift
And then this...! Poor Harry, poor Remus, poor everyone. Harry is going to have such a hard time with this. The poor kid has seen Sirius killed before his eyes twice now!. After the initial joy of Sirius coming back from the Veil, then the trials of them coming to terms with the different circumstances of Harry's life, and then Sirius' death on top of it all, I'm sure it's going to be very difficult for Harry. I'm glad that Severus spared Harry from killing Bellatrix, but I do understand Harry's rage. Of course he shouldn't have screamed that he hated his father, but he is out of his mind with grief and shock right now. First he suffered the terror of being kidnapped from his father's side by Bellatrix and then watched Sirius die by her hand again. I think it's probably safe to say that he's not in his right mind at the moment. We all know that Harry didn't mean it, and Severus knows it too, I'm sure. I believe that Harry will probably feel very guilty once he's calmed down enough to realize what he said. Looking forward to the next chapter!
Sirius!! He may have not been able to think of the consequences of his actions, but he proved in the end that he loved Harry more then anything else in the world. I don't suppose that it is possible for someone to come back from the dead twice, is it? And poor Harry. Severus is going to have his work cut out for him in helping Harry through Sirius's death. As always, great great job on the chapter. I actually cried at the end. - Leilia
You killed the mutt. How could you kill the mutt. We just got him back. I know I badmouth Sirius but it is only because I love him and so many times, he disappoints me. Sobbing in sorrow again now.
The ironic thing about this is that I scrolled to the end before I read this to see if it was going to be a cliffie or not and I saw that someone died, so I quickly scrolled back up. I misread the name and thought you were killing off Sev at the end of this chapter. So, basically, I spent the whole chapter looking for a loophole in this which would enable Sev to come back to life. When I got to the end, I just laughed at how mistaken I was, lol. You know what, though? There could have been a loophole because with Sirius giving his life to protect someone out of love, I think history would have repeated itself and an Avada would have bounced off of Sev (which would make the lighting bolt scar a family trait). Anyway, so my predictions were totally haywire this time around. I'm glad that Sirius had this redeeming moment though. I liked how he died, protecting Sev, but not doing it for Sev. Unfortunately, this will make things even harder for Harry to deal with. Harry knows Sirius did it for him this time around--it was no accident. I think that would make it even harder, since Sirius did it so willingly and showed such great love for Harry. I kind of want to know what passed between Harry and Sev's minds right before Sirius' sacrifice. It was interesting that you chose his p.o.v. It was a lot less emotional this way, but I really liked the pacing of the battle and how everything happened so quickly. Speaking of pacing, I really liked the part where Sev was running through the forest at an incredible speed. You always hear about these people who can do miraculous feats of strength and such when in times of need and I feel like that's what happened here. While Sev is thin, I don't picture him as someone who's in great shape--the guy brews and teaches all day and would not be in shape to sprint like that. Well, I think I've kissed the idea of there being Christmas fluff goodbye, but this was very satisfying. I think Harry's anger at Sev for not allowing him to kill Bella will blow over soon enough. Poor Sev though, I don't think he's ever seen Harry that mad before. He dealt with the situation well, all things considered, though Harry's anger probably hurt him more than he let on. This was amazing. I'll leave it at that. -P.G.
Poor Harry, he just got Sirius back and now he's gone. This time forever... right? Harry's having a terrible Christmas, I mean he was kidnapped by a mad woman, seeing a slimy politician, his godfather, and the crazy lady murdered (by his father no less). Can get it any worse? Severus, oh man... you had to kill her I know. But Harry's reaction, no matter how bad you feel, you NEVER say that to a parent, no matter how bad you feel. Poor Severus! He was protecting his son, from Bella and the scars that murder leaves, but Harry doesn't get it. Instead, he gets "I hate you!" .... -sigh- Okay I've ranted enough. |
