Reviews For Vows III: Honour
But i was a little disappointed when you decided to pair Draco w/ Hermione. Because since the Vows 2, you already made the chemistry between Draco and Luna. I am a freak Dramione shipper, but i just didn't find them here :'( And i really liked too that you are being very consistent about Dumbledore's nature in meddling in Harry's life. Even though Snape's character was very OOC, the contrary, i really liked a very kind and caring Snape (i'm a normal human being who believes in goodness of every person :P). I know it's too naive, but you depict it perfectly via Snape. I also found it a little bit weird about Snape's relation w/ Narcissa. But i guess he could not be a lonely man, right :P
I love your series incredibly. I have a suggestion, and I hope you reply to it. You have done an incredible thing in your story. I have read two of your reviews, and they are asking you to do a Harry/Ginny, which is bland and boring and too common, and a Harry/Luna, but I feel that that is a bit unfair and not really interesting because Harry and Draco seem to view Luna as a younger sister, as well they should! A Harry/Pansy and Draco/Hermione pairing in a great, superb and wonderful idea. It proves that that CAN be inter-house friendship, and even love. I think that you should continue these pairings. I also wish you the best in finishing your series and I hope that you do not have many writer's blocks. If you read this, I hope you reply with your decision. By the way, the ranking only goes up to ten, by I would go up to twenty if allowed. Keep up the pairings you've hinted at in this chapter!
I'd not really thought about Severus/Narcissa seriously before, but this really works in your AU, and I'm more than willing to read this ship when handled as gracefully as you have done. Oh, the flint is that you originally had Harry's Patronus take on the shape of a panther but it reverted to Prongs in this story. :) I could go on forever mentioning bits and pieces that really appealed to me, but then I'd be up all night. I'll be concise and just say that this trilogy goes on my re-read frequently list, I'll be watching for future fics from you, and I'll be recommending the stories to my friends who are Snape and Harry gen fans. It was a great ride, and I'm grateful that you've shared it with us readers. Well done! Author's Response: Yeah, I've been getting grief on that Flint for ages! One of these days I'll go back and fix it... In the meantime it is a good indicator as to who really is paying attention! Thank you for the review - I'm glad you really liked it! var fctb_tool=null; function FCTB_Init_6be41aa5414f4834b2cb66ca39d34e48(t) { fctb_tool=t; start(fctb_tool); } FCTB_Init_6be41aa5414f4834b2cb66ca39d34e48(document['FCTB_Init_06c1154edc1d4cce812a60c821147903']); delete document['FCTB_Init_06c1154edc1d4cce812a60c821147903']
I liked how Harry dealt with the dragons and Snape's panic at Harry's alternate plan if speaking to the dragons hadn't worked. I'm glad Cedric survived and Lucius didn't. I enjoyed how you fixed the Yule Ball. Harry seemed too awkward in the original and ratty robes are hard to believe in a school of witches and wizards. The return of the dungeon bat was fun. Snape can't turn too mellow, then he wouldn't be believable. Dumbledoor's manipulations are exposed here. Harry will be more wary in the future. How will that affect the revelation of the prophecy and the search for the horcruxes (no clue if that's the correct plural or not)? A question...(or several)... In the previous story, Harry's patronus was a panther, but Lupin told Harry it could change with emotional turmoil. In this story it was a stag. Was this a deliberate change? Will he continue alternating patronus animals as he matures and experiences more difficulties and turmoil? I really hope you continue this series. I'd love to see how the year is different with Snape aware of Harry's visions - and with Harry more in control of his mind. If Bill is teaching defense, will Umbridge manage to invade the school? Perhaps as History teacher, to replace Binns? Will Severus continue in his role as head of Slytherin, despite no longer being a spy or paying lip service to the side of Voldemort? Author's Response: Thank you for the wonderful reviews. People are always catching the "Flints" when they come to these stories and read them all at once! Mea culpa on all of them. Although - I love your explanation of the change in the Patronus - works better than "I forgot!" Although it would work even better if it had been the other way around, the stag first and then the panther... 20/20 hind vision. One of these days I'll go back and fix it. I was just rereading my stuff in preparation for plotting year 5 and totally missed the 4 - 3 "dementors". Great catch! Cookies of your choice to you!
I loved making sure that Snape got to be Dungeon Bat again - he is always so fun to write as a snark. :-)
Again, thank you for the heartfelt reviews!
