Reviews For The Poor of God
It was nice of Snape to talk with Harry about his mother, and Snape just a little bit drunk is fun to see. It was another nice moment when Snape fixed Harry's shoes so they'd be the right size, and I loved how he smiled after Harry's back was turned.
I literally let out a wail of despair when I read the words, 'To be continued...' The dedication you have clearly put into this is very much appreciated, so keep up your fantastic writing style, if only to sooth my poor nerves. I hope that you will continue with this story, as I have become very attached to it, and wish to know more about your Harry's world. Thanks, Terrwyn.
The little touches with Snape add so much to this and Harry is great. He isn't so dense that you want to shake him; he is both strong and vulnerable. I hope Snape takes in both Harry and Luna!
Harry's letter read like Austen fanfic written by a semi-literate teen who thought "Pride and Prejudice" was, like, totally romantic and stuff. In other words: AWESOME.
Oooooh I SOOOO wanna beat those horrible boys over the head with a bat! *shakes fist* How DARE they do that to Luna and Harry!!! But oh, what skill you have as a writer! You always get me so emotionally involved in your writing - I think that's a great skill! Hehe, DD's "telling off" of Snape was nicely done too - I somehow didn't expect DD to make a big scene (it's not in his character), and I think Snape's (and Harry's too, I suppose) acting was awesome! Anyway, I really enjoyed this chapter, and I'm tetherhooks for the next one - oh please tell me Luna and Harry are going to be OK!!!
Well, not really, but you get the gist. And OMG because I completely missed when this chapter first came out ... BAD SWEARTOAD! BAD BAD BAD! (and now I'm reverting to acting like a house elf. Oookay.) So now that his two favourite students have almost been killed, I would really hate to see his reaction to those Slytherins. No, actually, I take that back. I can't wait to see his reaction XD I can just imagine him being like OMG IMMA KILL YOOOOUUUU!!!!!!!! and then Dumbledore having to hold his arms back or something. Well, a fangirl can always dream XD I LOVED the whole Dumbledore-Snapey 'argument' because Dumbledore would totally not make a scene by shouting. And Snape ... so perfect. Snapey: you are so quaint. You are like ... Mr. Darcy with an injection of BADASS MOFO and not-as-nice hair. That whole bit with Snape telling Harry to look away was really touching, and it sort of drove the whole I'm-old-fashioned!Snape home. I think it's nice to see that, because I reckon that Snapey shows his emotions through his actions, and I think those little kindnesses have to be pretty small, considering he's like a triple-agent and all that. But yeah. The rate at which he shows those little acts of kindnesses makes me melt XD Seriously, if HARRY/SNAPE LUFF is not already here, then it will be. Like, just around the river bend XD Also, sooo happy to see a use for the toy soldier XD And Snapey's reaction! I luff. Seriously. The whole "Harry?!?!?! HARRY!!!!!" bit was seriously choking me up back there X3 So maybe I'm stupid and have no sense of pace or whatever, but I totallly didn't think you were going to pull a Draco-Malfoy-in-HBP on Luna (ie have her splurting copious amounts of blood on us). I also didn't think you'd mess with Harry's ribs again, but there you go. Totally unexpected. It was sort of like in those cartoons when they're walking and then suddenly they look down and it's like WHOA I'VE WALKED OVER A CLIFF! 8O You sneaky sneaky, Branwyn XD But yeah. I'm looking forward to Snapey opening a can of WHOOPASS on those Slytherins. It will make my week XD Author's Response: Oh yay, there you are! I was wondering if you'd fallen off the Internet! :-) And don't feel bad about not predicting the attack on Luna, I don't think there was any real foreshadowing to set it up. :-) Snape is totally old fashioned, it's part of his delightful charm. NO MORE QUOTING THE LYRICS TO POCAHONTAS SONGS IN YOUR REVIEWS. The fact that I can actually identify that as such is very shaming to me.
Author's Response: Oh! You know, it never occurred to me that that story would fit here at Potions and Snitches, but you're right, it totally would. Thank you for pointing that out! I'll upload it tonight. And yeah, drunk!Snape has a lot in common with drunk!Branwyn. I get hyperaware of things when I've had a few, and then I start to overshare. :-) |
