Reviews For Playing Pretend
Author's Response: Yeah, it is. They would absolutly deny such a thing. I wouldn't call what's coming "terrible" but it's not all nice either. Thanks for the review.
What I am wondering the real Snape sons are in some different world and how are they adjusting. Author's Response: Glad to hear it. Although you misunderstand, they have not been switched for the sons of this world, because this world doesn't exist at all. It was created by certain magics and the entire place itself is an illusion. Realistically, the boys have never left the room of requirement. Thanks for the review.
I just hope that when they return to "their" world, that they will still have that commaraderie. I'm really loving Dobby in this. He is very sweet, and I hope that in the new world that they end up as a family too. You know, it's not often that I "want" Harry and Draco to be brothers; there are only a couple of stories that I enjoy Snape adopting Draco AND Harry, but I am really loving their interaction and I'm finding myself really wanting Snape, Harry and Draco to become a family. I can't wait to see what happens when they return to a lot "different" Snape and try to convince him to become their "Dad"! Canon Snape as a family man, is hard to envision, but I'm really anxious see these two work together and achieve the seemingly impossible. Oh, I can't wait for part 2!!! Author's Response: Thank you for your wonderful review and comments! Yay! :D. Yes, Harry did finally open up to Draco about his muggle life, however in a small way, Draco did open up a little to Harry as well. What Malfoy tells information of their father's humiliation, however innocent and brief? Keeping up this "truce" in the real world will not be easy, however I won't say much more now; you will see soon enough. Dobby will make appearances in the next part, but a lot in the final part, because he's as much a part of this story as the others are. Yeah? Well I'm glad you want Draco to be a part of this family as well. And yes, it will be interesting to say the least when they return to their world; canon snape as a family man is indeed difficult to envision. But as the writer, I think I know how to make it work. Yes, the boys will be working together for that seemingly unachieveable goal. Glad to hear it, thanks!
Ominous ending, though... Great job again! Author's Response: Thanks, glad to hear you comments. Yeah, the ending is forshadowing. Thank-you.
I totally want to see them go to Diagon Alley or someplace other than the manor to have some interaction. Maybe to go get school supplies? But it could really be anywhere - a zoo, a museum (God, I could just imagine Draco in a Children's Science Museum...rofl!), even just a picnic in a park or something. Just an activity in Nice World with different scenery. And then we can see their growth as brotherly-figures better. If you remember, I did mention this once before in one of my reviews..."Get away from the somewhat-stiffling and imposing atmosphere of Snape's manor that's supposed to be their home, someplace where they don't have to worry about 'acting right' as much." And wouldn't that be just great if in that place they then felt enough like a family that they acted like one naturally? Awesomeness as usual this chapter! (Still working on finishing up the next chap, fyi; RL *cough*annoyingparents*cough* have been infringing upon my FF and manga time recently... Can't wait to see what else you come up for them all in this first installment! Author's Response: Lol. Yeah, I do remember now but when you mentioned it I was still fixing my plans and must have forgotten about it. But with more detail, I've figured out a moment like that, thanks :). It's a great idea, for sure. Although I struggle to see Snape having a picnic, this world snape or not, it's too tear-jerking hilarious to imagine. The science museum was a good diea, funny as well. The zoo was the one I considered the most, however in the end I think I have come up with something that fits into the story really well; a place were they can act family without entirely realizing it etc. Ergh, RL, so annoying. :P. Thanks!
Draco can be blind, can't he? Good work, and get working on the next chapter! Please? Zabby Author's Response: Zabby, Thank you!! :) I loved your praise. Draco is a little blinded at the moment, yes :P. I have already submitted chapter nine to my beta and the chapter after this one is ready to be submitted, however the story will be over too fast if I updated too quickly. But I will update again very soon! Thanks for the review. -Mel :)
Anyway, as usual, the story and plotline are coming along great, and I can't wait for Draco to come 'round! I want to see some Draco/Harry/Severus bonding all happening together soon! *hint hint* ;) Keep it up! ForEll Author's Response: ForEll, Yeah, it's been a while since I applied the beta'ing to my copy, therefore I forgot how I did it, cmparing and editing etc. Got is straight now, so all the others will be fine. And no, it wasn't intended! Although the upload was being difficult. Draco is a little slower in the matter than Harry, based on the fact that Harry knows what it's like to be lacking a family he never had a chance with. Draco has his parents, so in a way he's not entirely connection the dots...yet. There will be more bonding soon! Haha. Thanks for everything. -Mel :)
