Title: Chapter 11: Chapter 11: Snapesbane 22 Sep 2007
Reviewer: snarky Beth (Signed)
    This storey just keeps getting more and more interesting, funny, and quit realistic too, actually. I have a quesion for you though, it's nothing to do with the storey, which is really good from how much I've read so far, but I would like to still know: What exactly dose a beta do? Do they check for spelling errors or something? Please answer my question, and also what TBC means as well as i've yet to figure it out. Thanks if you do!

    Author's Response:

    Hi!  Yeah, a beta reads a chapter before it’s posted to check for grammatical and punctuation errors.  They have the job of editor, though I’m not sure why they’re called betas instead of editors.  TBC means ”to be continued.”  Glad you’re liking the story so far.  Thanks and enjoy!

Reviewer: snarky Beth (Signed)
    That ancient Sumerian was quit sad...Where did you find it? I am very curiuos if there are others like it, because, like Harry said, I thought it sounded like something Snape would write too. HOW SAD! *sob* On a brighter note, I love how you have a lot of Remus and Severus enteraction because I LOVE them both so much! And Ron, but, he's taken by Herione...well, Remus is taken by Tonks too...so I'll just have to love Snape more, now wont I? LOL! Lov'n this storey validego!

    much love,

    Beth

    Author's Response:

    That hymn actually is ancient Sumerian.  No joke.  But I'm going to be taking a lot of liberties with it in this story.  I know, it is sad.  It will definitely come up again.  Remus will be in here a lot, so I'm glad you like interaction between them.  But just in case, we'll both have to love Snape.  lol  Thanks Beth!  Enjoy!

    Dear validego,
    About chapter 15, since at this time, that is the chapter I just finnished reading: Naw, I'm not mad about the last chapter, I knew Snape wouldn't risk Harry's life. I realy thought the Snape and Winky interaction was quit cute, it made me think of this picture I saved by kinokochan on DeviantArt, heres the link adress: http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs6/i/2005/092/c/c/Clinging_to_Snape_by_kinokochan.jpg I am looking forward to how Winky has become a Snape worshiper. HOW CUTE! Hope you love kinokochan's picture as much as I did...of course...the only way you could, would be if you loved Snape is much as I do too...and I just don't know if you love him as much as I do....LOL! Still lov'n this storey!

    much love,

    Beth

    P.S. When I FINALLY post a fan-fiction of my own here, I hope you read it and leave me reveiws! I realy need to get my arse in gear and finnish a fan-fic and post it, sheesh!

    Author's Response: OMG!  That picture was freaking hilarious!  I loved it.  And absolutely, when you post a story, let me know so I can go find it.  When I’m writing I don’t always pay attention to new story updates, but I’ll go read and review what you get up.  As far as the who loves Snape issue more…oh no you didn’t!  lol  Snape’s mine - but if you wanna borrow him…lol.  I’m waiting for the hate mail to pour in now.  hehe  Anyway, glad you love the story.  I love your reviews.  Thanks Beth!  Enjoy!

Reviewer: snarky Beth (Signed)
    I think I got a spoiler of what Snape's patronus was, I won't say it though, because you may be like me and prefer to read the books only when the movies are near the theaters, but I will say that if they are correct, his patronus is a very beautiful and cute animal, sutes him...at least I think so. PLEASE DON'T GIVE ME ANY SPOILERS FOR HBP & DH! Thanks, since I would be upset if you did.

    Author's Response:

    What!???  You haven’t read HBP or DH yet!?  How can you stand to wait?  Ah well.  So the thing is, this story is AU after OoTP, which means that I may or may not take anything out of HBP or DH, but some things will be different.  I won’t say whether Snape has a Patronus or if so, what it is, in this review because it would be a spoiler for this story.  But I’ll be careful about what I say in the author’s notes for you.  But tell me, how on earth would a cute animal suit Snape?  lmao.  No, I can see it.  Thanks Beth!  Enjoy!

Reviewer: snarky Beth (Signed)
    Hmmmmmmmm, I think Snape would listen to music, like that has meaning to it, like, you know how some songs have a storey to them, and they are usually sad? Well, something like that, almost like country rock, it isn't really country, but it can either be smooth or fast. If I knew what it was called this whole thing would be much shorter. Dam! Oh well, this story is really great!

    Author's Response: Do you mean like folk music?  No, that doesn’t really fit your description either.  But I think I get it.  If I figure out the genre, I’ll let you know.  Glad you like the story!  Thanks and enjoy!

Well, actually I love BOTH you're stories, but this reveiw is about 'Word Up' not 'Bad Ass' so... There is absolutly NOTHING I would change. It's perfect!

    Man, you always have to leave it off at the most interesting/excieting of times. And that's just crule woman! Now I'm going to go insain waiting for the next update! I'm just very happy that you kept you're promise to post before September ended. Hope you post the next chapter soon. *puppy-dog eyes* Ha! I KNOW you can't go against THAT! My inner Slytherin is shinning today. hehe.

    Much love, as always,

    Beth

    NOOOOO!  Not the puppy dog eyes!  Honestly woman!  Now everyone's going to know my secret weakness.  *Runs screaming from sad puppy eyes*  Stop looking at me!

    Dear Andy,

    I'm very, very, very happy that you updated! *does little jig* I've been nearly at death's door waiting for the next chapter, and this certainly brought the life back in me. A new chapter posted, AND another soon on it's way? All hail vadilego, and her wonderful storey Word Up! You deserve the praise girl, WE LOVE THIS STOREY! I really enjoyed reading this chapter, it was very good and entertaining to read. You're Snape and Harry interaction is the best! So cute and funny ^_^ I hope that when you finally finish this storey, that you make a sequel, other wise, I hope you NEVER finish, because I’ll be heart-broken when there is no more.

    Lots of chocolate frogs and lemon drops for ya!

    Much love,
    Beth

    Author's Response: Aw shucks.  You're making my head swell.  Thanks for the praise.  I have a huge grin on my face now.  So sorry to keep you at death's door.  I'll type all the faster knowing that this is your medicine.  LOL!  Goodness, I don't know about a sequel.  I have to get through this one first.  But it will be rather long.  Thanks so much!  Hope you're writing is going well.  Enjoy!

The summer after 5th year, Death Eaters find Harry abandoned in the Dursley house and bring him to Voldemort. Will one particular Death Eater give up his position and his hate to save his enemy's child? Eventual Snape mentors Harry fic.

    This was a great story, I don't really like reading things envolving rape, bbut everyone said this was such a great story, that I totally caved. I'm glad there was nothing graphic, it made it more tolerable. I realy liked reading this though, it was very good. It was emotional, excieting, funny, creative, nice and long, and I hope to see the sequel soon ^_^

    Author's Response: Thanks, snarky!  The scenes involving rape were some of the ahrdest I've ever had to write, and I tried hard not to make it graphic, but deal with the traumatic aftermath anyway.  The sequel is still in the "searching for a title" phase, but I hope to get a real start on it in a week or two.  Thanks again!

This is in answer to my own challenge “Aesop Fables.” Harry and Draco get into a bit of trouble and are caught by Professor Snape.

    Tiffany,

    This story was very cute! ^_^ I think you did a very good job on everyone's reactions, they sound alot like what the characters would say. I have never heard of that fable, but I think that it was a good choice for a story, so good job! I'll now read you're other story.

    much love,

    Beth

    Author's Response:

    Beth,

    Thank you. Personally I think the characters are more in character in this story than in my other one. The particular fable I used is not very well know but when I read it I got the idea for this little story so...*shrugs* Hope you enjoy my other story just as much.

    lots of love

    Tiff
