Reviews For Suffering
Author's Response: Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I enjoyed writing the argument between Al and Lily--arguments are one of my favorite things to write, lol. I'm also glad you like my vague statements because I know they're driving some people nuts; I love reading things like this though and I'm glad you've enjoyed it too. Snape and Harry will have their meeting fairly soon--stay tuned! Thanks again for reading! -P.G.
Author's Response: Hi, thanks for reading! I'm glad you enjoy this sort of story--I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I really love these sorts of mysteries and I'm glad you appreciate it too. Stayed tuned--there's more to come soon! Thanks for supporting my writing! -P.G.
I think her son sounds really adorable. And harry would probably love him. Author's Response: Polaris is a little cutie and I think he'd really be good for Harry. Thanks again for all of these nice reviews. Chapter 5 is pretty close to being done, so do expect more soon :D. -P.G.
I like that Sev and Al talked and that Al is a Hufflepuff. There aren't too many stories with Hufflepuffs in them. Can they cure Severus? I figured the man in the room screaming at Harry was Ron--looks like he's still letting his mouth run away with him. I loved George and how he played a prank on Al--lemon drops, ha! I'm guessing that Lily doesn't see Al too much anymore and that she's married to someone Al doesn;t really like. Author's Response: I really like the idea of Al being a Hufflepuff. Everyone assumed that he'd be in Gryffindor or Slytherin just because of his family and/or namesake and I think that's kind of silly. He's seemed nice, but kind of insecure in the DH epilogue and reminded me a lot of Neville, who I think would have done great in Hufflepuff as well. I really like the idea of Albus being loyal to Harry too and so it made the most sense to have him sorted there since he was exhibiting those qualities in the fic. I'm glad you liked the lemon drops--I just had to throw that little bit of irony in there; I couldn't help myself! You're right about Lily not seeing too much of Al these days, but that's about all I can say on that topic ;). I'm really glad you've enjoyed the fic and I hope I answer all of your questions in the subsequent chapters. -P.G.
And I'm assuming that DE killed James and maybe Ginny too? Since she's not there with Harry and he lives with Al? I like the wandless Sleeping Charm Al performed on Severus. I hope he can talk to him next chapter. Author's Response: The Death Eater is very strong here and has managed to retain his magical strength, despite his lack of physical strength. I'm glad you enjoyed the wandless magic--I thought that little trick would come in handy for someone in Al's line of work. Your other questions will be answered in the future...:D Thanks for reading! -P.G.
I like how you describe the other patients there, I've been in many a nursing home and some of the patients there were like this--it was very realistic. Author's Response: Thanks for the nice compliments--I'm glad you found the nursing home realistic. I spent a lot of time in one for a few years while my great grandparents were there, so I have a pretty good idea about what goes on. Al is a healer of sorts here in this story, though I've coined him a nurse and not a Mediwizard for a reason (maybe I should have used the word Healer for him...I'll have to think about that). Anyways, I'm not going to say much more because I don't want to give away my plot here, but thank you so much for reading! -P.G.
Even in old age, Severus can get to a Potter. Young Lily seems as unforgiving as her namesake. Author's Response: Thanks for reading! Hehe, I think Sev is baiting Albus just to see if he's still got it, lol! I can't say anything about Lily without giving anything away, but I'm really glad you enjoyed the story. Thanks for supporting my writing. -P.G.
Please update soon!! Poor poor Harry I think its horrible that lily jr blames him adn wants nothing to do with teh family..! Its soo horrible you've written a real tragedy Author's Response: I'm sorry I made you so sad--I guess I should have put a tragedy warning up. As the author of this, I think I've thought about the fic so much that I've kind of become desensitized to the situation. I'm glad it is turning out emotional though and that you want to read more, even if it is a sad read. Thanks for your support! -P.G.
I am living with my elderly father so I can understand a bit what Albus would be dealing with. I was particularly touched by this last chapter with Lily and the beginnings of the backstory coming out. Magic or no, when families have internal stress the hurt just goes bone deep. Maybe the irascible old death eater (who seems very familiar with potions... hmmmm...) will give some good advice to the Potter men. I am looking forward to your next update!!! Author's Response: Hey, I'm glad you liked it! THis story is really sad and I like to write stuff like this because not every story can have a happy ending (not to say whether or not this one will or won't, of course, you'll have to stick around and see about that). There are a lot of things that need straightened out after the war and I think Harry's family has really suffered from these over the years. I'm also happy that you enjoyed the back story; a lot of thought has went into it. Lol, it is a bit hard to keep a secret identity from this crowd (especially when you know two specific characters have to be a part of the fic somehow), but I think you'll be pleased with what happens next. Thank you so much for reading! -P.G.
Author's Response: Thanks Attack! I'm glad you like Al's perspective; I mulled over that for days because I wasn't sure if I wanted to do it from Al's perspective or Harry's originally. I'm glad I chose Al though. He has a very unique perspective in all of this chaos and I like giving him a voice. I'm also glad you like my Snape; I was hoping he was in character. I'm glad you enjoyed it! -P.G. |
