Hi there! I have fourteen stories up, and my favorites are Ripping at the Seams, At the Bus Stop, and Worms for Teeth. Thanks for stopping by!
I really liked this, even though the Ron/Draco pairing seems a little odd at first glance. I thought this was well-carried out, but I wanted just a tad more about how Draco fell in love with Ron-- just realizing he liked blue eyes seemed a little random. Otherwise, nice!
Uggh!!! Whenever I read Marauder era fics from Snape's point of view I always end up so angry at the Marauders. They really can be gits, can't they? I feel so bad for Severus, that he got off on the wrong foot. :( Nice job, though!
"and the goat gives it a sort of innovative stubbornness I haven't a word for, an ability to endure and thrive where other beasts would fade and fail." Is the word Mr. Ollivander the elder looking for "perserverance"? ;)
This was really excellent! I'm hooked! So excited to see what will transpire in some 46 chapters. I love Snape.
P.S. I was rereading PS today and suddenly came across Harry looking around in Flourish and Blott for the first time, finding a book by a certain...Vindictus Viridian! Ah ha! (Oddly enough, my very foolish first thought was "Why did JKR steal the penname of one of her fans?").
Just curious...was this written pre-DH?
Random things: Crows are my favourite animals, and Ink...what a great name! Maybe Snape and James will get along better....? *crosses fingers*
Oh!!!!! This is so sad with Ink!!!! This is rather strange to read, as I just finished reading A Matter of Malevolence by trinsan, another Snape POV. In AMoM Malfoy tries to be Severus' friend. It's odd now reading this where it's the opposite case. Very well done as usual, though!
Oooh! Yet another incredible chapter. Interesting with the whole Sirius/James thing, as I thought I was the only one who thought that! :) On to the next chapter...Huzzah!
Hmm...is Occlumency/Legillimency perhaps a part of the title? *shrugs* Excellent! One question: I'm not a very subtle person, and was wondering: is Sirius with Peter, or am I just imagining that? *shrugs again* On to chapter 19! And I never want it to end....
One of the best parts about this story is how well you portray Severus' character. He has his flaws but you show him to be ultimately a good person, which is how I like to believe him to be. :)
Yay!! Another excellent chapter. I like that Severus and Lily made up. "The Prince's Tale" in DH was far too sad.
Haha--very funny at the end with Lily and Severus trying to fool Slughorn. :) I wonder what will happen the next time the Marauders stumble across Severus? Only one way to find out...on to chapter 24! Sad to say, I'm over halfway done...I never want it to end. :(
I like that you gave Severus this odd little talent with reading tea leaves. But oh, how sad that he can See Lily's death...

Arg...far, far too similar to my Chemistry teacher! lol ;)
Oh my goodness....it's over. That is without a doubt the best fanfiction I have ever read. Are you sure you aren't an author in real life, too?
I really liked how you characterised Severus. You made him, through it all, a good--but misunderstood--person. I just looked at the date and found that you wrote this pre-DH--so kudos for figuring out the Lily/Severus relationship. This was very sad and well written and not something I am liable to forget any time soon. Severus in my mind is the tragic hero of HP--a true hero, but his story always ends sadly, and that is that. :( Really, really, really well done. Writing, plot, everything--impeccable. My heart bleeds for poor Severus Snape.
Now that I'm all done (a day's project, which successfully drew me away from my huge Culminating Project due tomorrow) I get the title. Very clever, that.
Oh, it ends there?!!! I'm ever-so angsty now!! By the way, what is a Mary Sue? Anyway, lol!!! I want to see how Harry's pregnancy goes... and who's the father....lol. :)
*sigh* I love rereading this story. It's probably my favorite fanfic I've ever read..... Harry/Draco is just the best ship ever. :)
Awww.... why does it have to end?!!! This is like my favorite fanfic ever. And I have read a lot of fanfiction.
Oh wow, I just reread this whole thing, and it was amazing all over again!!! It's simply delightful. It's smart, it's funny, it's sad...it's prefect! :)
YESS!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG, I love this so much!!!!!!!!!! I would write this in all caps to show my feelings, but that might look like a little much. Anyway, this is my fav story ever, going right to the Favorites!!! I love this so much. This has everything: Romance, drama, and a Tri--or is it Tetra?--Wizard Tournament! Ariel is the best character ever--I love him!--, and I'm glad he finally finds love. I love what you did with adding Karakum to the competition, too-- it worked in seamlessly. PLEASE UPDATE!!!!!!!! This was so amazing, I'm dying for more!!!
