Reviews For The Son Becomes the Father
I also can't wait to see if Sev replies to the letter, I can't wait to see where it comes from. BYE!!!
One thing I find lacking, especially Harry not objecting to any of it, is that two people swore and promised not to tell another soul about Toby and then turned around and told someone without asking Harry's permission. Hermione with Ginny, and Remus with Tonks. Where is the honor and trust in these people? How can Harry continue to trust secrets to them? At this point the needs magic vows or contracts perhaps. Tonks could have turned out poorly as she is an auror, though a poor one that seems to ignore the law, and has a duty to report this. How exactly did Remus talk to Albus without blabbing first? Albus didn't seem to be telling everyone in the Order. Is Albus telling Harry the prophecy doesn't concern him now because he is Snape's son? If so why does that disqualify him? Author's Response: Thanks, I'm thrilled to hear you think so. Yeah? I didn't know that. To clear a few things up, Harry had told Hermione to tell Ginny about Toby while he told Dean and Seamus at the same time. And he knew Remus would tell Tonks, as it was expected and she had already seen the boy, also because Harry didn't want to cause conflict between the pair as Reus would struggle with his silence there. Therefore he continues to vaguely trust them because they technically didn't betray his secrets. He's learning though, as he is moving on to vows and magical contracts for certain others, not wanting to risk it. That also depends on the person too. You have a point about Tonks being an auror, however because the Ministry is bein corrupted because of Voldemort and the darker times they're in, she is really working for the Order than anyone, in which Dumbledore has instructed her to keep Toby a secret once he knew she knew about it. Had it been peaceful times without the Dark Lord, yes...she would have to report it. As for Remus and Dumbledore; the headmaster knew Remus had been informed. Yes, he does seem to know everything, that Dumbledore. And no, he's not telling anyone in the Order that doesn't already know; Snape is in the Order. Plus, it would go against his plans. Albus lied to Harry when he said the prophecy no longer concerns him. Being Snape's son would not disqualify him, also it's one of the few things Dumbledore doesn't know...that Harry is Snape's son. The reasoning behind suddenly separating Harry from the confrontation with Voldemort has more to do with Toby then Harry. More on that later. Thanks for the review! Will be updating now.
Author's Response: Harry needed someone who knew Lily and James really well and also who already knew about Toby. He's annoyed with Dumbledore and Hagrid wasn't the best choice; hence Remus. Can't say much about when Sev finds out the truth, though I have 90% of that bit planned and am nearing the more major events of the year. I agree with the angst comment though. Thanks for the review!
Well, what I intended to say is, that I hope you won't give up on this fic, because it's quite original and very well written! Thanks for sharing! Author's Response: I was never actually stop writing it, merely that I lacked the motivation to do so, which would mean I'd do a little then move on, rather than write a chapter, update, write, plan, etc. Thanks for all of your comments though, I'm glad to read them. Heh, I never said that Snape wouldn't help harry in the war unless he knew about his sons...still writing that though, so not sure yet. Can't say much about Dumbledore, but know that there is more to his plan of "disincluding" Harry than it seems. Haha, your Dumbledore impression was funny, and accurate, of course. I won't give up on it so long as I have reviewers/readers who remind me that they're sticking by it as well. You're welcome. Thanks for your review! Will be updating shortly.
thank you for that, really. frenchy |
