Reviews For Serendipity
But I liked this chapter lots! ^-^ But HOLY CRAP!! Almost getting smashed by cars?!?! I'm Sev on that one, I would've freaked out too! But thank goodess for magic, huh? Nice one HArry! XD And I loved the whole shopping day between the two groups. But I did feel bad for Hermione though. Why does she like Ron again? lol No, I'm being mean. But you would think that Ron would've noticed that the couple was his own SISTER and his best friend. *rolls eyes* But I guess that's why he's got Hermione! XD Welp, Winger, I'll have to read later on tonight. I've got LOTS of choir stuff later. *groans* But I'll be back. Another wonderful chapter!!
There was so much good stuff in this, I'm just oozing with pleasure right now! I only wish I could read more tonight. *sigh* But I need to work and go to sleep. I shall see you on the 'morrow!
“Kiff—aff!”- that one, I did NOT need Harry's translation for! lol That's hilarious, and exactly what I was thinking...well, actually at first I almost guessed that the guy was like semi-retarded, but then I remembered that that probably wasn't so nice, so I settled on crazy and creepy, like Ginny. lol "Severus, the great bubble-pouncer"- I'm sure adult Sev would be so proud of this title! XD Heaven knows I would be. I love bubbles! But WOW! You're in astrophysics?!?! Smarty! I was only putting of psychology...that due tomorrow...that I haven't really looked at yet...that I don't want to do...I'll get it done later. OH! And thanks for clearing up the "bull-horse" thing. Makes a lot of sense now, and thanks for the references! That was really nice of you! ^-^ It's just some people really don't know what to call different farm animals, and I always die a little inside when I see someone call a goose a duck for instance... *rolls eyes* But since you study astrophysics you're a smarty, so I shouldn't have to worry with you. OFF TO THE NEXT CHAPPIE!!!!
And yay Sunday service! (I go every Sunday) I'm sure the little family's going to have a blast at the lunch! I'm sure Sev will, at any rate. And the end was too cute with Sev "helping" Harry and Ginny, and then causing a bit of trouble. And the three dancing around and then the meal and...and...OH! I'm off to the next one!
I have one thing that slightly bothers me though (you're probably getting sick of me and my bothers, aren't you? Sorry!) there's a section where you call a male horse a "bull-horse". Normally that's not the appropriate term, it's "stud", but since this is a different type of horse, one of your own creation, I wasn't sure if that's the term you were wanting to use. I'm not trying to be mean!-but living on a farm and all I just had to wince slightly at that. But it's your creature, and it's your story, so do whatever the heck you want! ;D I realize something else to, Winger, you're putting in so many little mysteries that you're forcing me to keep reading instead of doing homework. VERY sneaky of you Winger! Very sneaky indeed! I'm off to the next one!! Author's Response: Lol! Aw...shame on me! :P Actually...you're doing the same thing too. I'm supposed to be doing my astrophysics homework right now, but I keep checking this thing every 15-30 minutes because you review every chapter. Lol! So we're doing it to each other. ;P It's all good. I don't mind too much. My homework isn't due 'til Friday anyway. I'm actually supposed to be writing the rest of the story right now, like I promised my readers, but I'm hopelessly distracted. Turnabout's fair play, I guess. :P Anyhoo... First off, just like always, thank you for your wonderful review. And no, I don't mind the questions. It's what actually gets me to respond. I usually only reply to reviewers that ask questions on the stories. Um...I believe the section you were referring to with the "bull-horse" description was describing a Bonnacon. I actually came up with none of these mythical creatures. These are all mystical creatures from a VERY long list of every mythical creature in every mythical story in the world (which is posted on Wikipedia). You can actually look up a Bonnacon (or any of the other creatures I described) on Wikipedia, and in this case, a Bonnacon is said to have the mane of a horse but resemble a bull in all other respects. Thus: bull-horse. :) It's quite literally a bull-horse. :P LoL! Here's the (VERY) long list I pulled the creatures out of: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mythical_creatures And here's the specific section on the Bonnacon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonnacon Good luck with trying to do your homework, considering the sections featuring Lily and Sirius are close at hand. ;P Seriously, though. I hope you enjoy your reading, and thank you once again for the reviews. :)
But I like the arguement between Ginny and Harry and the after math. That actually sounds a bit like me and my boyfriend. I'm like Ginny, the more forceful one that makes the man do all the work ;D while my boyfriends like Harry that has more patience (usually) and DOES what the girl tells them! ^-^ That makes men just that much easier to get along with. lol And oh the mashpotatoes! That was so cute!! I love how Sev knows what he's doing, is still in there as the old Snape, but doesn't really care all that much at times. It makes it that much more adorable for me. ^-^ But, uh-oh! Here come Sirius!! I'll have to read it later on. Very good Winger!1 “Did he ever his you?”
And before I go on, I must say that Tonks TOTALLY sounds like my aunt! Seriously, my aunts run around the house screaming before when she was happy. The only difference between the two is that my aunt can't change her hair color as fast as Tonks! XD Okay, not I gotta tell you that I REALLY admire Ginny in this chapter. I don't think that I could have admitted I was breastfeeding a baby that wasn't mine to my teachers when they were STILL my teachers. *winces* I would be horrified. So three cheers to her. I would've acted more like Sev and hid and turn red. But Sev sounds just so CUTE! Think Harry and Ginny would let me take him?? Yeah, me neither, but it was worth a shot, right? I do have one question though: at the end, what does Ginny mean when she says, "And my name's not Ginny."?? That confused me, but maybe I'm just being stupid (which happens A LOT!) But your answer last review was exactly what I was looking for. I guess I never noticed that Dumbles never just the word "horcrux" around Snape. I guess I just assumed he knew what it was being a Dark Arts Extraordinaire. Very observant of you! ^-^ Well, I'm off to the next chappie! Tally HOOoooooOOoooOOoooo...!! Author's Response: Lol! Well...once again, thank you for the review. :) Your aunt sounds super-cool! :D To be completely honest, the whole breastfeeding thing with Ginny got me nervous when I posted it because I figured people would have mixed feelings to it and everything. And they did, actually. But I kept it in there because it's my story and I wanted it in there, AND I wanted to show that Ginny was getting just as attached to Sev as Harry was. Plus, I think the whole idea of breastfeeding is just beautiful. The bond between mother and child is just as precious as the bond between father and child. I wanted Sev to have the whole nine yards now that he was in his second childhood. And eventually Sev will recognize that both Harry and Ginny are strong in their own ways. Um...yeah. I don't know. I'm really glad that you (and a few other reviewers) recognized that the whole breastfeeding thing was something worthy of admiration. That was what I was going for when it came to that. And...yeah. :P Thanks for your opinion on that aspect! :D In answer to your question, Ginny was replying to Harry insisting that he wasn't getting worked up. So...Dean is Ginny's ex, Ginny is Harry's girlfriend, and Ginny is going to be staying in the dorms next school year--away from Harry (her boyfriend), and closer to Dean (her ex). Harry was definitely getting worked up in regards to that situation. Lol! :P "And my name's not Ginny." was just her sarcastic reply to him insisting he wasn't getting worked up. It's kind of like, "SURE you weren't getting worked up! SURE you weren't!" Lol! :P Did that clear things up? :) Let me know. Thanks again for the wonderful review! :)
I just have one question though. Why doesn't Sev know what a horcrux is in this? He should. I mean at the beginning he doesn't seem to know what it is, but in the middle, when they're talking about Tom's diary, he seems to understand there. Was it just the baby in him at the moment? Aww! The ending made me sad, yet happy. He distroyed the box and got Lily's picture, but he can never have Lily. She's dead. Will he ever be able to let go and love someone else when he gets older? Or will he forever love her and only her? I'd be really sad for him if he had two life times where he couldn't be happy and didn't get to love anyone like he'd loved Lily... I think he deserves someone. Unless he'd someday marry Lily's granddaughter, Harry's daughter?? That's kind weird to think about... Well, I know what you mean about typing too fast that your brain doesn't register mistakes. Mine does that ALL the time. My story almost alway has like ten mistakes I don't catch because I know what it's supposed to say and I just don't see it. But I did find one booboo: "Slytherins are most likely the one ones who" you have one too many ones (ha!) Another wonderful chappie, my dear Winger-dawn. I'll read again tomorrow!! Author's Response: Thank you once again for taking the time to review! :) It's highly appreciated, considering I'm a person who reads a story, loves it to pieces, but almost never reviews. :P That's why I appreciate all my reviewers so much. :) To answer your question, Sev doesn't know what a Horcrux is. Like, period. He doesn't. Um...And I wrote it that way because when I was reading the books, I noticed that Dumbledore never told Severus what a horcrux was. Or at least...I don't think he did. Voldemort would NEVER tell his Death Eaters what a horcrux is because he's the type that would keep the secrets of immortality from his followers. Dumbledore just told Snape that a piece of Voldemort's soul was lodged in Harry, and that's all Snape knew about that situation. He didn't know that Harry was technically termed a "horcrux". It was Harry who knew the implications of Dumbledore's statement. The Headmaster, to my recollection, never actually said the word "horcrux" during his and Snape's conversations. Um...during the story, the part when they're talking about Riddle's Diary, that was Sev reacting to the notion of being associated with Voldemort's soul, which Harry mentions in the previous line. Sev has yet to associate the term "horcrux" to the notion that it houses a piece of a person's soul. When he starts talking about never feeling clean again if that ever happened to him, he's only talking about that notion. He has yet to find out he's also talking about being associated with horcruxes. Uh...anyway, yeah. I think that was the part you were referring to. Did that answer your question? Or did I just ramble about the completely wrong part? :-P Let me know. Thanks once again for pointing out that typo. It's supposed to say "...the ONLY ones..." So now I have two things to fix the next time I update. Lol! It's all good. Um...about Lily. LoL! That last comment is both amusing and a little disconcerting, considering Harry and Ginny are practically, um...adopting Sev and stuff. She would technically be his adoptive sister. :-S Uh...yeah. LOL! But anyway...back to Lily...Chapter 12 (as well as little bits and pieces scattered throughout this story) should pique your interest in that regard. Um...yeah. That's all I'm saying about that. ;-P Some reviewers have already started guessing in regards to it. I want to see who actually gets it right first. Oh yeah! And Chapter 15 is rather Lily-centric as well. Er...yeah. I think that's all I wanted to say about that. :-P Ha, ha! Happy reading! (And thanks once again for the review!) |
