Reviews For Antonomasia
-P.G. Author's Response: hehehe, jimbob... sorry, I wont make much sense right now (too much chocolate) – I suppose I was forgiven for a little while (thanks for that ^^) but I’ve been keeping everyone waiting awhile again haven’t I...? TT sorry. And it’s still not a bad thing you got the impression of heaven, it means I did a good job of directing your thoughts that way... although I probably could have explained the snow better... ahh well ^^ and thanks! I’m glad you liked the lily bit ^^ wasn’t sure about it to begin with so I’m glad people liked it ^^ - points and muffins for you!
At any rate, holy snap! Chapter 13 was just an all around great addition. My favorite parts from the chapter? (And no, I couldn't choose just one...I really did try, though.) 1. Snape being in a good mood after his meeting with Voldemort. It's just a funny image/very real feeling. 2. "The universe hated him; Severus had known it for quite awhile but never had he felt quite so betrayed by it." This might make me a bad person, but I thought this line was funny. It feels like a very Snapey way of viewing things. 3. "How no misty breaths rose into the air before his face like they did Severus..." And this line was basically just pure goodness...just pure goodness, man. Sigh. I could go on, but I should stop. Anyhoo, thanks for the update! Can't wait for the next chapter. Author's Response: Aww, I made you speechless ^^ *have a muffin ^^* and wow! You certainly do sound like you like this fic! *hugs u* aww, sorry I made you wait so long in that case, hope it wasn’t too painful (I’ve been really obsessed about fics before and it feels like a splinter or an amputation... you know, something rather annoying that just stays in your thoughts all the time... and yes, I just compared amputation to splinters... because they hurt dammit! ^^ - sorry, off topic, I get like that when I’m all giddy from the sweetest reviews ever ^^) And you get bonus points for trying to narrow it down of course... as well as bonus points for so many examples (I’m just giving them away... obviously... oh, damn I’m high on chocolate again ^^) - I like to think if I were finally free from years of servitude to an evil psychopath I’d smile a bit too ^^ - I think the world probably is a tad bit against Snape but then he’s one to harp on about inside his own head too... and when I read it back I thought it was funny too so don’t worry about it – we’re both bad people ^-^ - and thanks muchly! Cant beat pure goodness (man ^-^) Haha, and don’t worry, I wont tell you to stop flattering me atrociously anytime soon, but for your own sanity you probably should ^^ thank you for the wonderful review *more muffins for you.. and points... though where should I put them... I’ll check your profile ^^* - hope I didn’t drive you nuts with the wait?
Great chapter. Please update soon!! Author's Response: Aw thank you! I’m really glad that adds to the fic and doesn’t detract instead... I think I end up doing that without thinking so it’s good it doesn’t make my writing crap ^^ *have a muffin* ^^ and sorry it’s been awhile since updating... I’m getting right on it *salutes* ^^
I think my favorite moment was probably when Harry was suddenly having these flashbacks of things said to him. I don't usually care for flashback scenes, but you handled this one really well and it set a good tone. Or bad, doomish tone. Eh, you know what I mean. Good job! I'll be here for the next update! P.S. Your author's note at the end made me laugh. And also, I still love "Twining"!!! ;-) Author's Response: I’m so glad you like the fic, though sorry it’s been so long since the last update... a whoopsy daisy on my part ^^ and Harry-abuse is a staple for most HP fics, don’t be sorry for liking it (‘specially since it paves the way for so much h/c(ccc) ^^, really that just shows how very caring you are ^^) Oh thank you! To know I nailed a flashback sequence is brilliant and very smile inducing ^^ - glad it set a good doomy kinda tone too ^^ (I think ^^) And thanks! Glad there’s still ‘twining’ lovers/likers around ^^ - cant go wrong with tinsel ^^ - glad my AN could make you laugh too... what Im here for ^^
1)“It’s Mr Harry Potter sir-” “Of course it is,” Snape muttered. 2)He felt a heaviness slowly descend on him, covering him completely in layer after barely-there layer until he was swaddled in warmth and encompassing comfort and he was safe. ---Even though I knew what was happening to Harry, I felt comfy myself when I was reading your description of Harry dying of hypothermia...among other things! Author's Response: Hehe, yes, yes they do (new rule, just made it up, ‘cos I do that ^^) – go slyths ^^ I must admit your first favourite was one of mine too – oblivious-dobby (oblividobby? ^^) and snarky-Snape... *sighs in contentment ^^* and thanks! I’m glad the description of Harry’s death by hypothermia was so comfy, I was aiming for that of course but it’s always nice to hear I hit the nail on the head... or Harry with sub-zero temps as the case may be... I’m so horrible ^^ thanks! (25 points... shhh, don’t tell anyone, it’s a secret ^^)
Author's Response: Thanks, and sorry bout the worry-inducement but there’s all good on the horizon... pretty much ^^ - and cliffies... gotta love ‘em ^^ (an an author ^-^)... ... ... *gives you sympathy muffin*, I know, I’m a bitch ^^
1. You've updated! I'm ecstatic! You don't know how many times I've checked this fic for chp 13! 2. Can't think of a favourite quote, but! I find myself really interested in this fic because Harry is being controlled by magic (he is...isn't he?)because I believe Harry wouldn't put up with so much abuse otherwise. 3. I liked how you talked about the Dursleys. Excessive Dursley beatings are over rated and I'm fond of J.K.R's Dursley's because they are an expression of her childhood. 4. I love your Ron! 5. Your scary scenes make my brain heat up like it does in nightmares. You are an awesome writer! 6. I think this summary is longer than the original review. :-) Author's Response: Oh, don’t you hate it when that happens! *passes you muffin and pats your back conciliatorily* there, all better ^^ Firstly, sorry for taking so very long this time round – TT – secondly, yes... I mean, *coughyescough*... well, you’ll find out eventually ^^, thirdly I didn’t know that about JK but I can understand how it would be so and I agree that when it’s taken for granted that they barely stopped short of killing him it’s a tad OTT but at the same time a crap childhood can be crap without beatings and horrifying examples of neglect and Harry’s would be crap enough without it too, fourthly - *takes a breath ^^* - thank you! I’m quite fond of my Ron too, he’s scrubbed up quite well hasn’t he *pinches his cheek* ^^ - fifthly (?) I’m extremely glad I can provoke such strong responses with my writing but I sincerely hope I haven’t made you too scared or anything! (or overheated, *hands you cool drink as well... something that goes well with muffins ^^*) I’ve read some wonderful fics where I get so absorbed that parts of it will make my tummy feel like it’s falling off a cliff or something so that I can get a similar reaction makes me all ridiculously smiley... and worried, but still smiley so thanks! ^^... and sixthly (which is apparently a word... so there you go ^^) it quite possibly is, certainly this reply is long ^-^ Thanks for such a wonderful, in-depth review, you deserve an update! ^^
Author's Response: Aw thanks!!! Feeling very flattered about my believable Harry and non-OOC Snape ^-^ have a muffin *passes one through screen*. And... well... at least you cant say I’ve taken a month this time...? *dodges flying projectiles aimed at head* well you didn’t say I couldn’t take longer ^-^ (what? Implied? Pshaw... which is, incidentally, totally a word ^^) not too much longer now... promise ^^
Loved Lily's appearance there, holding on to Harry and making sure he stayed alive. And I'm so glad that Severus is done with spying...now he can devote all his time to caring for Harry, lol! My favorite part was Dobby...I think you need to explore the relationship between Dobby and Severus...Just kidding of course. You know my favorite part is Severus discovering Harry in the snow, and finally seeing how badly hurt he is. Now, finally, Harry can start getting the care and the love that he deserves, I hope! Great chapter and I'm already wanting 14! Author's Response: Thank you! Sorry it’s taken so long to reply (and update ^^) – as fun as it is, full-time uni tends to eat up all the ficcing time I had before TT – and thanks for saying the Dobby moments were appropriate – it was one of those things I really wanted to do whether it was appropriate or not so I’m glad you thought so ^^ And I’ve read one too many fics with Lily trying to get him to choose life or death to write one myself – personally I think I would make sure my kid didn’t give up for as long as they possibly could ^^ (I know, such a slave driver) – but we had to have a bit of Lily ^^ And Sev’s calling in life really is Harry anyway so I figured he’d have to be able to devote all his time to it ^^ (don’t think Voldy was too thrilled though ^^) Haha, oh now that would be interesting... Dobby and Severus and the tangled web surrounding them both... I don’t see how that couldn’t be a crack!fic ^^ hehe, and for some odd, utterly strange reason a lot of people seemed to agree with you and like the moment Sev found out about Harry’s injuries the most... I wonder why...? (couldn’t possibly be because of how incredibly long I dragged the bloody thing out of course ^^) Hope you’re still waiting for 14 and haven’t given up (don’t give up! You can do it!... sorry, too much chocolate ^^) – and thanks for being one of those who have tried to kick my ass into gear lately too, very appreciated ^-^, muffins and points are yours ^^
Author's Response: OMG thanks! ^^and I bet the wait’s been awful in that case – sorry ‘bout that ^^ - I think I would’ve been a little too cruel not to let Sev find him after that (think I’d drawn it out enough ^-^) and thanks so much for that amount of dedication! I hope your daughter wasn’t too upset to be locked out though (whoops) – it was for Harry’s health if it helps at all ^^ *blushes madly* hehehe... well, I’m betting your opinion of me’s changed a bit since I last updated, hope you’re still interested in more chapters ^^ |
