Reviews For Coals of Fire
If I had to choose, I'd probably ask that ron be entrusted with "leashing" me at night. But then again, Ron can't wake up on his own in the morning, so Harry would probably "earn" punishments for being late as well. sigh...I don't actually know if I can continue with the story. There is no sign of hope, just endless torment. Especially since Snape admitted that he likes to see Harry humiliated, just not broken. Being broken would take away the fun of humiliation after all. Bastard. Only thing left would be the pleasure of beating harry. yeah, my heart hurts Author's Response: Well, you don't have to continue reading, and that's fine. Thanks for the respectful review. Notice, though, that despite Snape saying that, he's gone out of his way to help Harry. That line was more a reference to his earlier behavior. Snape was so upset at having to raise his hand against Harry that he got drunk. He definitely doesn't get anything out of it. Thanks for the review!
The chapter is great. Some points of their discussions are definitely trigerring for me. I really hope, that Harry doesn't have any experiences with "other favours" he has been insinuating... That the abuse wasn't so horrid. Looking forward to next chapters :) Author's Response: I'm still a bit undecided about Harry's experience. I figured I'd let the story unfold however seemed natural. If anything, I suspect it would only involved Dudley, maybe some of his gang. Nothing known by Mr. or Mrs. Dursley. And hey, if you ever need someone to talk to, because it's triggering or whatever, you can always feel free to send me a PM via fanfiction under the same user name. Thanks for reviewing!
Looking forward to reading more. Author's Response: Well, Snape already realizes he'll have a hard time telling Harry that his relatives were wrong to beat him when he's going to have to turn around and beat Harry himself. Anyway, they'll get some issues straightened out eventually.
Author's Response: I love warm and fuzzies, thank you! ^_^
I have some questions again though and hope I am not a bother. Harry can't have a snack in between without approval, let's say an apple or piece of chocolat? What about drinking water on a hot day? What if Snapes dozes off during the the day and Harry is not leashed; does that force a beating? Can Snape decide to magically prevent Harry from attacking him and thus forgo the leash? Can he decide to punish in other ways than corporal? Will they at one point in the story work through the whys and hows they came to hate each other? Author's Response: No, questions are good! You're not a bother. :) You're right, Harry can't have a snack without approval. I suppose that would extend to water as well, though I hadn't given it much thought. If there is any time that Snape is sleeping when Harry is not restrained, the bond will have a fit, yes. Snape could forgo the leash, say, if he put Harry in a body binding spell; is that better than a leash though? Harry can at least move a little bit on the leash. Snape doesn't know if non-corporal punishment will work. There's a reason for that. Definitely, they'll work through a lot of things. It won't always be bleak and hopeless, though it will be that way for awhile.
Author's Response: If everyone cooperates - *glares at Harry and Severus* - next chapter. |
