Thirty one plus one by Hopeless Wanderer starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 46]
Harry's only rejoice in these last few months is that he has his list. He would go down for sure, but before he does, he wants to make sure he gets to do everything on the list. To die without any regret. But what does Snape have to do with this?

    I remember when I first read this story, it almost broke my heart upon reaching the last chapter because I know that it would take a year or more for it to be updated. Your story is very well detailed. That's what I notice to your writing style. You tell the story as if you experience yourself all the emotions of the characters. The way you make the characters think, the way they act, the way they feel, the way they respond to other characters, all capture your reader's own thoughts and emotion. Other writers also do that but you have this certain uniqueness that I think only you can manage to produce. You have fewer reviews but all your reviews are full of admiration and lovely words. I think they serve as an enough evidence how truly effective and amazing writer you are.
    I'm looking forward for the next chapters of this fic and also to your other fics. I absolutely love this even though I know that it will make me cry in the future. But I'm still keeping my fingers crossed. Perhaps, somehow you'll change your mind and will make this a happy ending?

    I always wonder: are you in the field of psychology? It's because majority of your stories have this pyschological plot thingy (I'm sorry, I don't know the correct term for that but I hope you understand what I mean)
    I think it's your writing signature and it's unique and amazing. I am looking forward for your future stories. I maybe silent but always remember that I'm always watching you (geez, that sounds so creepy hahaha).

Love you more by Hopeless Wanderer starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 13]
Five-year-old Harry has a delicious surprise for Severus, and Mr. Scarecrow is about to attend his first Halloween party ever.

    You are so great in writing Severitus fanfics but I think that you excel most in writing kid fic (for me only!) The fluffiness and innocence always manage to melt my heart whenever I read one of yours

Wonders Never Cease by Hopeless Wanderer starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 43]
“It’s like playing a game,” Harry said. “A judging game. You sit and listen and at the end of the day you’ll decide whether Severus Snape deserves to die or not.” His father had spent his whole life trying to protect Harry from the outside world, from himself, at the expense of his own life. Now it was Harry's turn to at least try.

    Hey, do you know that you're my favorite author? No kidding. You're in line with my other fav author such as JK Rowling, Suzanne Collins, Dan Brown, etc. See? You are more than a fanfiction writer for me. Tell you what, I have read a lot of fanfics here and lot of you are good here and yet I never bothered to create an account to review. (Yeah, I'm rotten lazy ass reader, ikr) Then I saw your works and then there's this nagging feeling that I need to let you know how awesome writer you are for me. But I could not do that right because I wasn't registered. So here's what I did. I created a gmail acct, then I log in here then I submitted a review, telling you how I consider this as gem. Then poof! I suddenly lost my password then I also couldnt retrieve the email acct I used here. In short, I became the 'rotten lazy fat ass reader who loves to read fics but wouldn't bother to create an acct bcoz she's too lazy' once again. And besides, I already told you how awesome you are so no need to review again right? I just patiently waited for your updates. Patiently. Telling myself, maybe the author is busy. Or maybe, doing more important things in her life. You said that you'll update, right? So I waited. Patiently. With full of hopes. But the problem is, YOU RARELY UPDATE ALL YOUR WORKS! Yeah, I've read all your works here and I love them (i'll give you some decent reviews next time, ok? This review is alloted for my babbled review). When I say I am waiting, I am not just referring to this fic but also to all your unfinished works to be updated. Anyway, go back to the story. Where I am again? Ah, okay. So I register here, gave you my FIRST EVER review, lost my log in info, could not review, and read your works silently.

    But then I couln't help but to overthink: "What happened to the author? Why Hopeless Wanderer isn't updating anymore? Is the author dealing with illness? Mental block? Broken heart? Or worst, lost of passion?! Oh my, what can I do? I need to let Hopeless Wanderer know how awesome she is! I need to let her know that I admire how genius she is in touching reader's heart, how brilliant she is in playing with reader's emotions, how sometimes her works are dark and has a psychological plot that will twist your brain, but at the same time, sweet and heartbreaking and haunting and beautiful and... simply unforgettable. So what could I do? Oh, wait! I have a brilliant idea! What if I'll get my lazy fat ass up, create another acct, then give her an awesome review! Brilliant!"

    So that's what I did. You know, it's just weird that I created an acct for you to give you my first review then now I created another acct just to give you my second review.
    Now, sorry for my stupid review. I just couldn't help it. Can you please update and finish your works? I mean, this and the Thirty-one plus one are my fav. Can you finish them quickly so I could now go back to my cave and bury myself to the ground like a good potato I am and finally rest in peace?

    PS. I won't tell my first username because I want you to go back to the reviews and read all the good words of your reviewers and maybe you'll feel motivated again.
    Another P.S I absolutely hate my new username. It's so random. Maybe I'll change it later to 'Hopeless Reviewer'

    Author's Response: I know exactly who you are, and I remember the exact quoting of your reviews dear and to THIS day, whenever I have enough time to go write, I try my darn hardest to come and take a look at those first for inspiration, your words are truly the kindest anyone has ever said to me, and the fact that you consider me one of your favourite authors legit teared me up as I was reading this email. MORE so was the fact that you went to the trouble and make a second account, through all the trouble to come and review and check up on me, it's just insane, and I feel quite maudlin for being this emotional about it. I found this Email notification WEEKS late, and gosh do I hate myself for it. before I go on and explaining, I should apologize for MAKING YOU WAIT SO LONG FOR ME TO UPLOAD! I'm so so so sorry, and I know that this apology wouldn't salvage the lost time you waited for me to show up. :'( Since the last year or so, a lot of things have happened to affect my writing, first and foremost was my Konkoor (super important uni exam) which required to me study 15 hours a day (no exaggeration), on top of that, I had some personal issues with my family that took up the rest of my time, and that just sort of vaporized all my writing abilities. Writing has been a bit scarce since then, the results of the exam came and thankfully my place is secured in Uni but that just doubled my workload. So between Uni and family and dealing with health, I neglected my precious babies here, (and you, sorry again) something that I NEVER meant to do. So I'm trying to rectify that, I rewrote my sketches from last year, and I'm slowly but surely working on completing my shorter works first and editing the old works before moving onto the longer ones that require more time. Today, I'm going to edit and repost two of my shortest one-shots while I finish the last chapter to "Lefties". Trying to get them out of the way, so I can focus properly. This review changed my entire mindset, even though I discovered it so late, and it gave me the jolt and the passion that I needed, don't you call it stupid because it honestly pulled me out of the well, and I'm trying to back on track because of it. THANK YOU, more than anything, thank you for your super kind words, and thank you for thinking of me. I hope you are safe and doing well, and I hope that we can be better friends because of it. I won't take more of your time, Squiby. I won't reveal my guess because I'm afraid of being wrong, but I feel like I know your last user name too :) I kinda like your new user name but if you think you should change it, love to see what you'll come up with! Stay tuned and stay safe and THANK you again. you just saved a life!

Lefties by Hopeless Wanderer starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 33]
Severus finds something about Harry, that Harry doesn't like about himself and is dead set on hiding it from everyone.

    Hey, I'm a lefty too!
    My cousin who taught me how to write used to tap my hand with ruler because I kept using my left hand in writing. She told me that the right hand is the 'right hand' for writing.
    In our country, being a left-handed is not negatively viewed. Instead, they would often relate it as having an artistic hand. Whenever people discover that I'm a lefty, they would be surprised and would often exclaim things like, "Hey, I never knew that you're a lefty! That's why you have a nice handwriting. I presume you're also good in arts because all left-handed I knew are artists."
    I find it odd that people find lefty as being odd. I mean, who set the law that we should use our right hand for writing? We have two hands so why not use the one which you find more comfortable to use, right? It's our own body parts anyway. Your body, your choice.

    Ps. I do not know how to change my username so I think I'm stuck with Squiby haha

The night is young, James and Lily are awfully new to parenting, and Severus has too many secrets to keep.
