About me:

I love to write and edit. You know those tests you'd do in school where you had to look at 5 different words and pick the correctly spelled one? Or "fix" wrong sentences? I loved those. ;-)

I've always got numerous stories in the works. I absolutely adore music. It's right up there with oxygen.

Past Featured Story Life as Dictated by a Talking Hat by RhiannanT starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 922]
Before Harry arrives at Hogwarts, the faculty have a meeting and decide that Harry will need a mentor to help him adjust, keep him out of trouble, and make protecting him easier. They decide that this person should the Head of the House into which Harry is sorted, presumably Minerva McGonagall. But things, of course, don't turn out as planned, and Harry is harder to deal with than anyone expected. Nobody asked him if he wanted a mentor, after all...

NOTE: This story has a prologue. It is not necessary to the plot of the story, but if you wish to read it, it is called(predictably enough) 'Prologue to Life as Dictated by a Talking Hat'

    Yay for an update!

    Aww, Harry at the end made me so ad. Poor boy. He just doesn't know!

    Sniff. Good chapter! I'm already looking forward to the next update! :-)

    Author's Response: Yey!! Glad you liked!! Yeah, this chapter was kinda tough to write. I had to stop a couple of times 'cause it was depressing me. Anyway, the next update should be up in about two weeks, and the update for Outcast's Alley in about 1 week. Thanks for the review! Rhiannan

Title: Chapter 26: Going Home 12 Jan 2010
Reviewer: Victory-Starr (Signed)
    YAY!!!!! I really love this story! You really got me when Harry started crying in the shop when Snape came to get him. That crushed me. I wanted to cry too. And clutch my non-existent Snape plushie.

    I absolutely LOVED the part where Snape called harry his child. Very touching. My heart leaped with joy! ;-)

    I think this may be a typo though, when they get back to Snape's office: -- "just watching as Severus man went into his potions" -- I think the word 'man' should probably be deleted.

    But other than that, it was brilliant! I was very excited to see a new chapter! Thanks for sharing!

    Author's Response: YAY!!!!! I'm really glad you like it! And thanks for pointing out the typo...lol "Yeah, Severus man goin' for the potions!" Thanks for the review!!

Title: Chapter 27: Psycho 28 Jan 2010
Reviewer: Victory-Starr (Signed)
    Aww, I love Harry calling her Psycho Kitty. That's adorable.

    I really like Harry's little thoughts and the letters between him and Dumbledore were cute and funny.

    Of course, my favorite scene was probably that tender little apology between Harry and Snape. Very well done.

    I'm so glad you updated. I've had a really bad day today, and this really gave me something to distract myself with. So thanks!

    Author's Response: Yey!! I'm glad you like, and glad I improved your day!! Thanks for the review!

Title: Chapter 28: Dumbledore's Death Eater 24 Feb 2010
Reviewer: Victory-Starr (Signed)
    Awww! Yay! So excited for the update! I loved the chapter. Harry can be so funny at times. ;-)

    The scene at breakfast before the game was both amusing and cute. I liked it.

    I was... huh. The part where Snape started listing off Slytherin notes for Dumbledore gave me mixed feelings. I thought it was funny. But sad too. And also just plain awesome. It shows how dedicated Snape really is to the children in his House.

    Harry hiding from Dumbledore... aww. I know the he missed Snape too. I'm looking forward to their next scene together! ;-)

    Overall, good work! I'm excited to see more!

    Author's Response: Yey! Glad you liked! Thanks for the review!! :0)

    Aww, poor little Harry. ::sniff:: He needs a hug and cookies. Not that dumb teacher.

    Loved the chapter, you did a great job. This is one of my favorite stories! :D

    Author's Response: Yey!! Glad you like!! Thanks for the review!!

Reviewer: Victory-Starr (Signed)
    Whoo-hoo! I am caught up! This was a great chapter. Harry seems out of sorts, poor guy. But that is too be expected, I suppose.

    And crud, newspapers. Augh. Rumors are gonna go flyin'...

    Good job! Looking forward to the next chapter!

Title: Chapter 11: Chapter 11: Even Heroes Have the Right to Dream 13 Sep 2009
Reviewer: Victory-Starr (Signed)
    I'm so glad you updated! Awesome chapter. As usual, the intractionn between Harry and Severus was wonderful. I love Severus for not allowing Harry to lay about in his pajamas all day. :D

    Your Hermione is really great, too. She doesn't bug me, which is a rare thing when I read fanfiction. The girl, in your story, is actually likable. ;-)

    Anyhow, again, really great chapter. Keep up the good work!

    Author's Response: Thank you very much.  Severus is not about to let Harry spiral into a depression, that's for sure.  :o)  I'm glad you liked Hermione. I developed quite the ssoft spot for her lately.  And I think she just might have grown up a bit during this little experience.  :o)

Title: Chapter 12: Chapter 12: A Kiss is Just a Dagger in Disguise 19 Sep 2009
Reviewer: Victory-Starr (Signed)
    Wow... this is getting messier and messier. But, of course, I love it. ;-)

    Though, I think my favorite part was Harry falling asleep at the table. It's just those little moments that I am always fond of. ;-)

    I also liked Harry talking to Severus about Remus. That was cute.

    Thanks for such a fast update! Looking forward to more. :D

Reviewer: Victory-Starr (Signed)
    Daaaaang. Now, that is good! It was a little confusing at first, till I figured out that James was the secretary. But after that, wow!

    This was one of those eye-opening stories. Truly awesome. Don't know what else to say really. Such a twisted and complicated plot and such a short story, I love it! What a different world it might've been.

    And I loved how you ended it. That was so perfect. Great job!!!

    Author's Response:

    Thanks!  It's meant to be a little confusing at the beginning, with the reader going, what, what, okay, Oh!  I was trying to sow Harry's absolute nonchalance about this world, and haw it was completely normal for him, and things that throw us completely for a loop don't even cross his radar, so he (and I) wasn't explaining anything.

    This was one of those stories that grabs you by the throat and demands to be written nownownow, *throttle*.  I'm still eking out fics in this universe.


Easy by Ria Rose starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 15]
Harry has one last request before he goes off to fulfill his destiny; he wants Snape to make it easy for him to choose what is right. He wants him to make sure that no student has to face abuse alone, as he so often did. –Set in the beginning of 6th year, AU.-

    This was lovely. I read it once. Then I went back and looked up Beth Hart (never heard of her) and this song. And I played the song as I went back and read it again.

    Then it made me wanna cry, i'm such a sap. ;-)

    This is really moving, and even more so with the music. I think if you're inspired to write more stories based off of her songs, you totally should. ;-)

    Thanks for sharing, this was really awesome! You are very creative.
