Reviews For Harry Potter and the Order of the Pegasus
Author's Response: I'm glad you're enjoying it and sorry for the delay; the problem with this story is it's too damn complicated and I tied myself in knots for a while in working out the program for Harry's holiday (the middle and end are easy- it's just the beginning that's terrifying lol!) However, I'm still working on it; I've got the final chapter written up already and I'm going to keep slogging through till I get there!
I love Nagini's personality in this fic! She's adorable, and I'd love to be wakened by her in the morning like she did Harry (well as long as she knew I was a friend and not an enemy! LOL!). Reborn Lily is terrific, and I like the changes that are happening in the relationship between Harry and Severus. I do hope that you are able to continue this story. I am super curious about what will happen next, what Tom's plans are, and how they are going to foil Albus' plot and preserve the Wizarding World from the white bumblebee. May your muse continue to be generous and know that however long it takes for the next bit of the story, I'll be waiting eagerly, albeit patiently, for it. Well done! Author's Response: Thanks ^^ I really wanted to write a good!Tom fic and that necessitated a very twisty, kafka-esque plot; there's going to be lots more twists- some of which are going to be real tear-jerkers. I'm glad you liked the poly-juiced Sirius device; I was worried that it might be pushing his and James' characters a bit too far into the dark (even though this is AU, I try to retain as many canon traits as possible!) Nagini is one of my favourite 'remastered' characters; she's a bit like Harry's pet Reggie in WtBCI in that she is an exaggeration of Tom's character, being very vain and concieted but sweet enough with it to make her funny rather than repugnant. I'm glad you like Lily (I tried to stay close to how she appears in canon) and the advances in Severus and Harry's relationship: it's going to take a while but as Sev a. has had the reason for his bitterness towards Harry removed, b. knows he is Harry's father and c. has eaten a large slice of humble pie, all they have to contend with is the awkwardness. I hope you continue to enjoy the story; I've got lots more planned ^^
Author's Response: Thanks ^^ It's one of my experimental pieces so I'm really glad people are enjoying it
Author's Response: Thanks fot the review; I hope I didn't make your paper late! Chickens are very funny, sweet creatures; I first grew to love them in Asterix and, having had more practical experience, I'd really like to keep some of my own one day ^^ I like the part where Snape says 'me' too; he's got so low self-esteem, it just felt right to have him proud of being the best at that one thing :)
Author's Response: Thanks ^^ glad you enjoyed it!
Author's Response: Thanks for the review. Canon Voldemort was incredibly suave in his youth, as shown in HBP, so I decided to emphasise this characteristic. Also, Tom's attractiveness could explain why Dumbledore mistrusted him; having loved the handsome, charming Grindelwald, Albus would know how persuasive charisma can be.
I'm sorry you've been depressed lately; that's rough. I hope you're feeling better now. I'm really happy to see this story again! It's one of the more original ones, and I'm loving this new family unit that Harry has. Lily and the chickens are great! Interesting to see Lucius there. I'm glad you have a convincing explanation for Dobby while allowing Lucius to be seen in a better light. I admit that one trouble I have with 'good' Lucius stories is his mistreatment of Dobby. It needs to have some other explanation or for the author to have that just not happen because a good person would not treat anyone in such a terrible way. Oh, Occlumency lessons...that ought to be good! Oh, I loved Harry wearing the kimono the wrong way, but as Tom said, if one is not familiar with that tradition, one wouldn't know. Looking forward to more! Author's Response: Thanks: I've got lots of ideas for this summer- thanks to the lovely people in the Potions&Snitches chatroom- and I'm already writing the next chapter. The lovely reviews certainly do help to motivate me, though ;) I'm glad you like Harry's new family; I've tried to keep the characters true to canon- even good!Tom has many traits of Voldemort- and I think their personalities compliment each other. Writing the chicken scene was great fun, as was the one with the kimono; I think Harry's going to have a couple of informal lessons in Japanese culture before the summer is up!
Author's Response: Thanks. I think Lily and Tom would probably have a fairly sparky relationship, not least because she is, technically, 21 and he, despite his experience, is biologically in his early twenties. They are also both self-confident and assertive (read bossy), whereas Severus' previous attidude was akin to that of Lucifer in Paradise Lost ("Farewell hope! and with hope, farewell fear! Farewell remorse! all good to me is lost"), now he's got his madcap father and lovely Lily back in his life- not to mention a son- Severus has unwound, leaving him a more relaxed and grounded person. Besides, Tom is stubborn enough for both himself and his son lol! |
