Lost Innocence by Sly Severus
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: No one is born a killer. This is the story of the night Lucius Malfoy became one.
Date: 08/04/06 Title: Chapter 3: The Breakdown
I thought this was really believable. In the books, I don't think we see a first kill, so we never really know how the Death Eaters feel about it. You described Lucius' feelings about it perfectly.
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I\'m glad you liked it. I figure no matter who you are or how you were raised it would be hard for someone to kill. I\'m glad you found it believeable. Thanks for the review!
When The Line Has Been Crossed (It's Time For Revenge...) by Hermione_Rocks
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: The Marauders have tormented, bullied, and teased Severus Snape since their first year at Hogwarts together. The night comes one day in their sixth year when they cross the line...but it won't be Severus who takes revenge...
Off-shoot to my fic Living With What's Done, but can be read on its own. Originally written for the June/July Monthly Challenge number 5: Revenge.
Rated 3rd-5th years for language, just to be safe.
Date: 07/29/06 Title: Chapter 1: When The Line Has Been Crossed (It's Time For Revenge...)
I really enjoyed this. Their relationship as brother and sister is so believable. Good work!
Author's Response: Thanks so much!
Nowhere To Go by Sly Severus
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Andromeda has just had her first big fight with Ted. She has ran out of the house and is feeling alone and abandoned. She gave up her family to be with Ted. What if it was all a mistake.
This is a song fic to Avril Lavigne's Nobody's Home from her album Under My Skin.
Date: 08/04/06 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
I never thought about how Andromeda might have second thoughts like this, but you described this so well. Great work!
Author's Response: Thanks so much for the review. I always assumed that Andromeda would have second thoughts. It\'s human nature to question your decisons, especially when things aren\'t going that well.
For Good by Hermione_Rocks
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Follows the relationship between Albus Dumbledore and Severus Snape. To the song For Good from the amazing Broadway musical Wicked.
Date: 10/06/06 Title: Chapter 1: For Good
You captured their feelings for themselves and each other so well. It shows the love-hate relationship perfectly between the two, and how they both must have felt when Dumbledore said he had to be killed. Great work!
Author's Response: Wow, thank you!

Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: A Death Eater watches the flames in his fireplace, and reflects over his life.
Date: 02/07/07 Title: Chapter 1: Flames in the Fire
This is great. I really liked how you compared a Death Eater to the flames; and how it compares to how they feel about being a Death Eater, no matter how loyal they might be.
Author's Response: Thank you! :)

Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Night after night the dream returns. One evening she decides to act upon it.

Very well written. I like how you brought their child into this, as well as the way the dream was written. Great job!
Author's Response: Thank you! :)

Very interesting. I don't support this ship, but you were able to keep Severus and Hermione in character, and it was very well written.

Originally entered for the fifth New Year's Challenge, To Laugh or Cry.
Date: 05/06/07 Title: Chapter 1: Always Off The Mark
I really enjoyed reading this. This part of Voldemort's past isn't explored much, so it was very interesting to read about.
Author's Response: I\'m pleased you enjoyed! Thanks for the review! :)
His Only Strand Of Light by Hermione_Rocks
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: It wasn’t enough. It was never enough. How could it ever be? His whole life had been one error, one failure after another. No matter what he did to redeem his errors, make up for them, compensate in some way, it did not matter. And it never would. Because now, lying here in this hospital, his heart threatening to stop at any moment, now it did not matter. He had failed; there were no ‘ifs’ or ‘buts’ about it. He had failed them, he had failed himself…and he had failed her.
A regret filled Severus and Hermione tale.
Date: 05/13/07 Title: Chapter 1: His Only Strand Of Light
Very good. I love your characterization of Snape here; you've shown him being a bit weaker and more gentle than we see in the books, but it is still very believable and in character.
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I love writing about Severus. :D
Nothing by Hermione_Rocks
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: What do you do when there's nothing left to do?
Date: 05/20/07 Title: Chapter 1: Nothing
Very interesting; you've described everything in a very real and powerful way. It reminds me of Selena, showing the same feelings of regret and weakness that she showed after she heard the news about Snape.
Author's Response: Ah, yes, Selena -- this does sound similar, doesn\'t it? :) Thanks for the review!
Remember Me by Hermione_Rocks
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •
Summary: Draco has lived a dull, solitary life under the Dark Lord's rule for the past two years. One night Pansy Parkinson steps into his life, changing everything he knows. Draco/Pansy one-shot.
This was written originally for wendelin the wierd's First Year Romance class, as the final assignment for that class.
Date: 05/26/07 Title: Chapter 1: Remember Me
One thing I loved about this story was how you explained their relationship and their motives. Slytherins clearly set high standards for each other, especially within family. It was interesting to read about Pansy's reasons for becoming a Death Eater, whether for her family or for herself. I also liked how you compared Andromeda to her sisters. Comparisons like those seem to be made often between Slytherins as well, and you captured that perfectly.
Author's Response: Lol, yes, Slytherins do like to set high standards and compare people to one another. ;) I\'m so glad you enjoyed the story, thanks for another lovely review! *huggles*
Flibbertigibbet by Hermione_Rocks
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Narcissa Black is called a word that she does not know the definition of. Curious to find out the meaning, she strikes up a conversation with Severus Snape.
A light, short piece showing a snippet of Narcissa's time at Hogwarts.
Date: 07/02/07 Title: Chapter 1: Flibbertiggibet
Very cute. Everyone was perfectly in-character, and I love the word :D. Great job!
Author's Response: Thanks very much! :D
Twitters in the Night by Hermione_Rocks
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Her spine curled against the base of the tree, she watched the bird perched on a branch above her head carefully. Its bright yellow feathers seemed to glow slightly in the dark, its small beak opening and closing in endless chatter.
“Silencio,” she whispered, aiming her wand at the little creature. The bird’s twitters quieted, its beak parting in silence now. She needed the thing muted for the next step, the more important one, otherwise neighbors may come intrude. And that was the last thing she wanted.
“Crucio.”
Date: 07/25/07 Title: Chapter 1: Twitters in the Night
You've created a very interesting mood with this story. I like the way you describe Bella's sadism and prejudice, and Andromeda's willingness to completely go against her family's values, as well as her denial that her relationship with Ted will change her and her family's life. Between Bella's conversation with her sister and the way she treats the bird, a dark, eerie tone is created to the story, in a different way, and I really enjoyed that.
Author's Response: I had a lot of fun with this little fic. :D I\'m pleased you enjoyed, thanks for the review!
