Reviews For Spiral of Trust
Author's Response: Teddy will make a reappearance, a number of chapters away. I couldn't think of an excuse to have him enter Hogwarts at his young age, though :-) so the interaction between H and Teddy will take place at the Burrow. Thanks for reviewing!
I also loved the naturalism of Harry's playtime with Teddy. It was very sweetly portrayed but fed well into how you've characterised everyone. Harry is just love and acceptance, things he never had as a child, and I liked how he explained himself so thoroughly to Teddy when Teddy was hiding, even though the child presumably doesn't have language skills. It goes back to the way we know Harry was raised-- only ever shouted at or punished, no kind touch, no soft voices. You say a lot with a small scene. And Harry's care for the Weasleys is just so lovely. He's not quite one of them in the same way they're all so alike and happy, but he loves them all so much and wants to make things better for them. I love that he thinks of them individually and has some kind of relationship with each of them. His reaching out to Hermione and Mrs Weasley was really very lovely. Your Harry is compassionate and bright and growing into a thoughtful young man. Wonderful story as always! Author's Response: Thank you! It warms my heart to see that you perceive Harry just the way I want to portray him. With Teddy, it is so like Harry to know, simply by instinct, how to talk to and to treat even a very small child (without language, you're right there - Teddy can be a year - a year and a half at most) with respect, as a real person. Thanks again for the review!
Author's Response: Thanks! It was nice to write a chapter that took place at the Burrow for a change.
Thanks so much for the update! Author's Response: Wow! That was a whole bunch of reviews - thanks for taking the time to write them all! It is really gratifying to have readers' (and writers') feed-back on the story! Funny you should mention Harry posing for photo ops with Snape... You have an intuition for these things :-) You'll have to wait quite a substantial number of chapters before something like that might come up, though. And the task of Mrs Weasley will also be revealed towards the end of the story. In the meantime, I hope you will continue to enjoy yourself while reading! |
