Reviews For Just a father
Author's Response: Harriverse, Thank-you :). Yes, I prefer Harry this way :P. Haha, yeah Snape rather thinks that taking points is something to do on principal rather than with strong reason, unless from Slytherin. What do you mean by "kids thinking down"? I didn't quite get that, but thanks for the review! -Mel :)
Author's Response: Monica, Thanks, yeah it was one of my more favourite times in the fic. -Mel :)
Author's Response: S.S, Thank-you and I'm happy to hear that. -Mel :)
The nightmare thing is interesting. It was a nice bonding moment there. I think my favorite chunk during that sequence was where Snape wondered where the brave Gryffindor went? Nice paragraph there. I can see how Harry would be embarassed about the question he asked Vernon, but Snape does have a point: He wanted a father to confide in...use him! And go Snape for calling Vernon an idiot. Poor Harry. Not able to comprehend anything other than Snape admitting to caring about him. But, again, go Snape for admitting it in plain English! Love how "I do not wish for you to suffer," could break the boy's emotional wall like that. And love how he threw himself at Snape. I always thought of that too! Harry can cook well (since he cooks for the Dursleys in canon) so why could he not excel in potions? It's the same type of thing. More like baking I suppose. But that always puzzled me too. Yay! Snape is realizing how lonely he is, and how much he needs a family just as badly as Harry. Yayness. Huzzah on another chapter! Author's Response: Raven Knight, Have I mentioned how much I love your reviews? :P. Haha, that image was very likeable too, until you mentioned it I hadn't visualised it that well and now it seems rather hilarious to have Snape going crazy in search of those boxes that have been sadly long packed away. That paragraph about the brave Gryffindor seemed to be so perfect for the moment, it's what I imaged he'd wonder if he ever saw Harry with his nightmares. Harry wants a father but is still a bit unsure and nervous about taking advantage of something for himself. Haha, plain English lol. Thanks for all of your lovely comments as usual. And yes, the cooking part always bugged me. potion-making is simular to cooking, although I do think that perhaps Snape's attitude may have effected the subject itself somehow. Thank-you!! -Mel :)
I like the warm tone. But I guess things will turn difficult again soon. Author's Response: La Mariane, You're welcome. Me too, although you're right...they are going to hit a bump in the road soon. -Mel :)
Ok, if you can't tell by now, I like it. Alot. I love how you can tell that Harry's speaking, through his voice, and how the voice changes for Snape. That is very nice. The emotions in this story are very well done, and come across clearly as one reads. However, it needs to be betaed. Now, normally, I wouldn't offer to beta anyone's work, simply because I suck at betaing my own; I just type and post. But, if you want to try, for the meantime, I volunteer my grammatical expertise to proof-reading your work. If you want, that is. Either way, Well done. I look forward to reading this as it develops. Author's Response: ObsessiveaboutSnape, Haha, yeah I can tell. Glad to hear it thought. I am thrilled to hear your comments about the difference in their voices, I aimed for that and hoped it turned out to be sucessful...thanks for letting me know that I did it right. Your comments make me very happy and proud of my story as well as writing. Yes, a beta perhaps may be useful but I am not sure if I would like one just yet. I may take you up on your offer but at the moment I do no wish to, thanks though. Thanks and I'm happy to hear that! -Mel :)
Author's Response: ObsessiveaboutSnape, Thanks. It is rather sweet indeed. -Mel :)
I WEEP!!! *weeps* The sweetness. I enjoyed this chapter very much. Way to go Snape!!!Growing a geart and such. Author's Response: ObsessiveaboutSnape, Yeah? Thanks...thrilled to hear it! Yeah, although I presume the word was meant to be "heart" instead of "geart" lol. Thanks. -Mel :)
Author's Response: La Mariane, Hi. Really? Nice, I'm happy to hear that you like my fic. I always enjoy new readers and reviewers. I'm glad to hear it, thank-you. -Mel :)
Author's Response: ObsessiveaboutSnape, Heh, glad to hear it! Thank-you and don't worry...I will! -Mel :) |
