Reviews For the Secret of Slytherin
I love this story! I think that this is by far my favorite fic on this site....they're all good, but this has a great, wonderful relationship between Draco and Harry that you aren't quite sure what it is yet...absolutely wonderful. I can't wait until the next installment of this story!!! Author's Response: Thank you so much for your review! I'm glad you like it. There will be more very soon. :) -K
Author's Response: I don't think so... did you read that someplace 'official' or was that an assumption on your part? I've never heard that, but a canon expert I am not. You don't like it but you can't stop reading it because it's addictive. I'm sure there was a compliment in there somewhere... -K
Author's Response: Education is a wonderful thing, and I'm glad the story is jiving with yours. ;) -K
Author's Response: Sorry for the late response, but I've picked up this story after awhile away. Dudley will disappear for a bit, but he shows up later on. You're right about Snape - no matter how he feels at the student, he's going to give them an equal right to do the work he assigns. And fail it. ;) More is up now! Thanks for reviewing, -K
Wow. I love this story - it's incredible. Although Draco has wandered into the area of "unforgiveable" with what he's doing to Harry. By the way, what is Draco's punishment? He cast serpensortia and cruciatus. First. Is he getting off scott-free? Author's Response: Heck no. Wait & see... -K
Author's Response: Thanks, Kira! -K
Author's Response: If you can wait twenty-four hours... -K
You were absolutely right in your AN in chapter 14; Harry Potter is very much like Ender's Game in that they expect children to do the work of adults. I also really like the interaction between Harry and Snape. The Obscura spell is very interesting. As for whether or not Harry would do exactly what Draco told him, of course he would. He is sneaky enough to try to get around it, but if Draco were smart enough to word the order so it would be impossible to avoid, Harry would feel he had a moral obligation to follow the orders. That, and a huge instict toward self-preservation and staying out of Azkaban. Interesting story. I like your writing and look forward to more. Author's Response: The key line here is "Harry would feel he had a moral obligation to follow the orders". Yup. And with a better hold on his temper, that would be easier for him to accomplish - especially as he begins to understand why Malfoy behaves as he does. Well-spotted. :) -K
Author's Response: With the risk of giving something away, your hope isn't completely out of line. -K
I'd like to tell you thaht I really like "Secret of Slytherin", its really well written. I guess that for some people it was frightening how Harry could hurt his friends or give his cloak. Now it's getting even more scary as he obscured amost all he ever cared for... But it's your story even if from some pepole's point of viev characters act occ they have good reasons to do so. I hope you would not abandon this story and continue posting it here. I'm waiting for next chapters.
Author's Response: Thanks, Diana. I think you're right; it IS frightening. I'm finding that a lot of the stories on this site are hurt/comfort... someone Evil (usually the Dursleys, or occasionally Voldemort) hurts Harry. Then Snape and possibly others swoops down and saves him. With the risk of touting a cliche, it's usually the ones we love that hurt us the most. Having Ron, Hermione and Harry literally *forced* to argue was a snap decision on my part when I wrote it. And although there are a handful of reasons I did (including, "what will the readers think is the *worst* thing Draco could do to Harry?") I can't reveal a whole mess of other reasons. Not yet. Thanks for your vote of confidence: if characters act OOC, they have good reason... yeah. Though I sort of understand if people assume I'm just taking liberties, I'm not... characters' changed behaviour has rhyme and reason in this story. We just haven't come across it yet. -K |
