Reviews For The Punishment Should Fit the Crime
Author's Response: Thanks you. I know they're cheesy-- just call me Velveeta :)
the chapter was great, the dursleys showing there true greed and poor harry will have to curb his temper, now that snape is his legal guardian
Poor Harry; he really has had a wake-up call that he didn't expect in the least, hasn't he? I know he's convinved that Snape is going to kill him but I'm sure that Severus will keep it discipline and not let it turn into physical abuse (especially if you are working with the background that he was an abused child whilst growing up). It makes sense that the taking of guardianship would be essentially an unbreakable vow. I bet Harry is going ot latch onto the idea of "You vowed to protect me, not hit me!" at least once. And I'm sure that Severus will inform him that the corporal punishment is meant to do exactly that: to keep him from behaving in ways that will get him hurt or killed. An excellent chapter and you picked the perfect place to end it. A nice little cliffie! Also, tell please tell Aragog that I have no intention of disappointing him, given that I think he could give Tolkien's Shelob a run for her money. Cheers! Author's Response: Oh no, don't give me ideas! Do you think I could work a little Sweeny Todd in? "It's Snape, have a little Snape..." I think Snape knows the limits. I also think Harry is going to test them at every oppertunity, because, as a teenager, he already knows everything anyway.
Thanks for the review.
Author's Response: I agree, but at the same time, I don't see Snape being the "Let's talk about it" type. I can see that being a challenge for him: Getting over the idea that children should always obey every order exactly without question. Just as Harry has to learn to obey reasonably ( and without attitude. I've always thought Harry had an awful attitude).
Thank you for posting an excellent story, and please update soon! P.S. I love the little rhyme at the end of Chapter 2, telling me to review! Author's Response: Thank you. The best thing for me is the image of the Dursleys being seen in Little Whinging in their PJs after the gold vanishes :) |
