Reviews For Sacrifices
And a wonderfully-detailed exposition of the Black family and the interactions between the three sisters-- this is the first time I've ever seen anyone tackle that particular subject, and you did a magnificent job! Descriptions, emotions, characterizations-- WONDERFUL throughout! Then there's Lucius' descriptions of false friends who only keep you around until you are no longer useful to them-- BOY, have I been victimized by people like that multiple times through the years. Even though it's Lucius who is doing the telling, and I NEVER thought I'd be in agreement with HIM, he's absolutely correct in THEORY, if not in application to the Weasleys. And Dumbledore spying on Sev and Ophelia-- tsk tsk! I couldn't quite understand at first WHY Sev thought someone was there, unless he had a sixth sense of being watched, until you explained about the muffled sound. Whoa! Just goes to show what TALENT he has at discerning something so nebulous as a difference in sound, which most of us would never even register. AMAZING! Sorry it took me so long to review this chapter again. I tried on my phone when you first posted, and the review didn't post, so I decided to try again from the library computer. Can't wait for the next update! :-) Author's Response: Now, it's my turn to apologize for the delay in responding to your review! So sorry! Thank you for your review! I'm thrilled you enjoyed the chapter, and especially the Black Family section. Lucius is correct about people using others. Everyone does it at some point. (And as I've mentioned before several times, the Malfoy Family - considering them as one big complex character here - are my favorites in the whole series.) I'm hoping to write several chapters before I post the next few so it may take a little while. Hope to hear from you again. Thanks, again for your review! SOrry it took me so long to respond! ~ RK
Author's Response: Unfortunately, we will not see Remus's parents' reactions to Tonks... Hope it's not a huge blow. There will be more to Draco's dreams in the coming chapters. There is some good stuff I have planned. Thanks for another review. Again, so sorry it took so long to respond. ~ RK
Author's Response: I would be lying if I were to say that I am not disappointed in losing a reader. However, considering that you immediately judge an original character before having actually met said character seems to be a premature reason for not continuing with a story which gave off an initially excellent impression. While I do understand the caution of a reader when encountering original characters, it is a little harsh and extremely judgmental to dismiss such a character as pointless without having read anything about the character as a character. As indicated in the notes, she is not romantically attached to any of the characters. She functions in plot and in the interactions of other characters, and serves a completely logical function to the story's events. Had you chosen to continue, that would have become apparent. I'm sorry you feel that way and have chosen to discontinue reading. However, thank you for leaving a review. ~ RK
Author's Response: Yes, it will be interesting indeed. Glad you liked the bonding scene. I'm trying to write as much as I can. Doing my best. Glad you're still reading! Thanks for reviewing! ~ RK
Author's Response: Wow! Thank you so much for pointing that out. It was indeed a mistake. There's so much to keep track of that I miss some things. Thank you. I fixed it. I got rid of Sirius doing that, and kept it as Severus. Thank you for your review! ~ RK
Author's Response: Thank you! Lupin & Tonks were VERY fun to write. I liked them. Yes, Tevin may not exactly know why he had to make that promise to his father, but by now he knows that his father usually has a reason. As for when he learns the truth? Well, we'll just have to wait and see. Thank you for reviewing! ~ RK
Please? *puppy eyes* Author's Response: Aww, I'm glad you are still interested. (And also impressed and pleasantly surprised you reread the whole thing up to now.) I have every intention of finishing this story. Should wrap up in ten chapters or so. Hope you stick around and leave your thoughts again. Thanks for reviewing! ~ RK
Author's Response: Thank you! Working on the next chapter. Hope to hear from you again when it's ready. Thanks for your review. ~ RK
so still interested Author's Response: Oh, yay! I'm glad you are still interested! I'm working on the next chapter. I hope to get it done relatively soon. This story should wrap up in at least another ten chapters. I need to lastly figure out exactly what needs to get done first before I end this story. Hope you continue to read! Thanks for reviewing! ~ RK
Update soon. Author's Response: Well, thank you. I don't even know Latin, just struggling to cross reference and ask people for translation help. So, I feel it is very necessary to explain my spells that I come up with, especially ones that need the translation for plot purposes. Glad you find them useful. Thanks for reading and also for reviewing! ~ RK |
