Reviews For When the Boat Comes In
Author's Response: Thanks ^^ It means a lot to me when people review but to receive such a positive response is really wonderful. I'm glad that you're enjoying the story and like the original characters (most of which are animals). p.s. I hope that you think Vivian the Owl suits her name ^^.
Author's Response: Thanks for the review ^^

Author's Response: Thanks ^^ Given what we know of Professor Kettleburn, I thought he sounded very much a kindred spirit to Hagrid and, as he is a Professor, he'd have the necessary leverage to pull the kids from their lessons. I'm glad you approve of the name; I thought that the etymology was very fitting whilst, contrariwise, the name, itself, is rather more evocative of a cute kitten or white mouse than a grumpy, black-scaled dragon. I just hope for everyone's sake that Hagrid doesn't tie blue ribbons around her horns ;)
Author's Response: Thanks ^^
It's really sweet how Hagrid is with is 'daughter' and Belinda is a much nicer name than Norbert (no offense meant to Hagrid, of course). Having Severus and Harry around is sure to help ensure that Belinda has many more years to come at Hogwarts, as they will help keep her under control. Great chapter! Author's Response: Thanks ^^ I think that, amid the ambitous Slytherins and with Severus as his dad, Harry's going to reach his full potential academically. I don't fancy being Quirrell during his post-report encounter with Severus ;) I was never too fond of 'Norbert' either, it's connotations definately do not suggest a regal, powerful, sleek, rare dragon, quite the opposite in fact. On the other hand, Belinda, while somewhat more regal, is evocative of pretty, sweet-as-sugar girls, which Hagrid, naturally, considers a fitting description of his dragon ^^.
