Reviews For Opening Night
Author's Response: All over the map! And we haven't even gotten to apparation yet!
btw, did harry really trick the hat? or does he truly have those hard working and loyal characteristics? i'm just really into how you portray hufflepuff in general, its always irked me how others might just stereo type hufflepuffs as dumb and overemotional. even though i'm in ravenclaw, i don't think its quite fair for any of the houses to be categorized so carelessly. [/rant] so, yeah, again, love this! Author's Response: Big grins. Thank you so much Alarnia, and I'm really, really happy to hear you're enjoying it--oh, and umm, please do not allow the fact I took four months to reply detract from the credibility of my delight. 'Hooligan Harry' probably will keep surprising most people, but he's actually going to become quite predictable, once he figures out his priorities... or as predictable as chaos can ever become, I suppose... Nah, he didn't trick the Hat. The expectations of other Houses on what being hard-working, loyal, honest, etc. entail cause them to trick themselves... as we'll see. :)
Author's Response: Thanks again! I was pretty worried about integrating my ideas into the plot without cluttering the story, and hoped you'd enjoy the additions I've made to the Potterverse! Making things less black/white though will have its downside... how the heck am I supposed to give the Death Eaters a sense of humour and interest in children... and then set them to fight a very UGLY war? Cringes. Maybe, by the time we get there, I can either make you (1) distance you from their sense of humour via some lovely, distracting plot, or (2) used it to create some sort of macabre or absurdist mood--while somehow not veering in R-rated content (cum Gaiman in 'Neverwhere' (AWESOME NOVEL! READ IT!) with Vandemar and Croup). Crosses fingers! |
