Yay, an update! I love how you portray the Marauders and Beth, they have such a natural friendship. I'm also fascinated to see where you take the Severus storyline, and it's great to see him written with some sympathy. Keep up the good work!

Author's Response: When I saw you'd returned to read chapter 2, I got SO excited -- thank you very much! Severus has only just now made an appearance in the story, but obviously he's going to come into play much, much more in future chapters, and I hope you'll enjoy them. :3

Thank you so much, this review totally made my day!

SO MUCH LOVE.
That is all.

Author's Response: Mutual existentialist glittery love. That is also all ♥

I love this story. To the point that words cannot describe how much I love it. Normally, I'm a Scorpius/Rose shipper. I have been converted.
And on an unrelated note, my English teacher's favourite word is wibbly. I always thought she made it up. You guys should be friends.

Author's Response: Ooh, ta! Yes, this actually started life as a Hogwarts-era Scorose with all the cliches - my excuse is that I was about 13 when I started writing it and didn't know any better - and I've used odd bits of it here and there in this fic. So, there you go. Trufax.
Wibbly is SO a word. Anyone who disagrees with me (dictionaries, microsoft word, safari's built-in spellchecker) is just fooling themselves. Your english teacher deserves something for being cool enough to say wibbly. Like a pat on the back. Something like that. ANYWAY. Thanks for reviewing! ♥

One chapter in and I'm already a massive fan of this story. Brilliant scene setting and characterisations, can't wait for the next chapter :)

Author's Response: That is fantastic news, you've totally made my day! :D I hope you'll keep coming back to read updates.

This is an absolutely marvellous AU. An amazing idea and brilliantly done. Loved it :)

This was a great little story! Glad I came across it!

 Report Review

An amazing story. Haunting, beautiful, and you evoked the historical setting extremely well. Very original, thoughtful, and generally well done :)

Author's Response: I was worried about the historical setting so thank you for saying that! And thank you for those other lovely words

OH MY GOSH YOU UPDATED MY LIFE HAS BEEN MADE.
Ahem.
Marvellous. Absolutely marvellous, as per usual. This story is just chapter after chapter of pure gold. I loved your background of Al and the other Potters, and I must say I'm a fan of the Clemence-Pickett banter as well, that's always fun. And the Quirky Girls! That was just brilliant. I can't say a word against this story, I really can't. Looking forward to the next update!

Author's Response: HII I DID. I really do love the Clemence-Pickett interaction too -- they've got a unique relationship of their own. Even though he's the secondary male, personally I find him more dishy than Albus xD Thanks for stopping by!

Dead keen for the rest of this story. A great start :)

Oh my goodness.
You're a genius.
And your misuse of the English language is marvellous. I believe I'm going to start asking for parmesan to do things. And granting parmesan as well.
SUCH a fan of this.

Author's Response: I give you parmesan to ask for parmesan.

:D

Thank you for your loveleh review! And for reading.

Wow. A brilliant story about a little-known and little written-about characher. Amazing insight and characterisation, and excellent command of second person. So glad I came across this story :)

Author's Response: Hey! I'm really glad you liked it. This is so true, Fudge is barely written about, if at all. I've taken a strong liking to second person just because of how it sounds when I read it. I'm glad you liked that part about the story too, not many people do.

Thanks for reviewing!

At last! A really, truly pessimistic OC! *marvels* I am definitely going to keep reading this one. Laney's perspective is fantastic (I'm quite a fan of the sarcastic, snarky OCs, they're the best) and I generally just thoroughly enjoyed this chapter.

Author's Response: Ooooh, cool llamas. Thanks so much. I hope you enjoy the next chapter! Oh now I'm all happy. Gracias. Gracias. Gracias. Ah, isn't pessimism just the best? I like, live by it. In my mind. God, I'd never have the guts to say whatever I wanted. Well. Usually.

Anyway, you rock like lots! Thanks for the review.

Oh wow.
This was so amazingly, hauntingly written. It's given me chills. I can't wait to see where you go with this story, if the first chapter is any indication of what's to come :)

Author's Response: Thank you!! Your words are awesome and I'm so glad to hear 'em! Thanks for the review!! =D

The scene with the Death Eaters was intriguing and adds an air of mystery to the story. It's interesting to read something about Fred and George's early years at Hogwarts and the dialogue between them is good, you've portrayed them well. A promising start :)

Author's Response: aww thank you :)

 Report Review

A very promising start to a story, and definitely intriguing! You've given James a good introduction without revealing too much about him. Just the right mix of explanation and mystery, and I'll definitely be reading the next chapter when it's up!

Author's Response: Thank you so much for this review! I really hope to get a chapter up soon, so I hope you are just as pleased with that chapter! Thanks again.

Oh my gosh! You have a new chapter! Day made! :D
I know I've said this before, but I LOVE your setup of Hogwarts and explanations of all the inner workings. The description of Rose and Dom and their rivalry was really well done and provided some fascinating insight. Your insights into Clemence were also brilliant, particularly "I'm a reporter. I tell other people's stories for a reason." Ah. Words cannot describe how much I love this story. Or all your stories in general, really. They're just fantastic. Look at me, I'm gushing. I don't normally do that. Anyway, 10/10, can't wait for the next scandalous, gossip-filled update :P

Author's Response: I do! It's been a terribly long time, but it is there! Describing magical-y bits and social structure, they're my fav parts to think up. It's what you can really work with in next gen :D And phew! I'm glad you like the characterizing because sometimes I wonder if I'm just going in circles xD

You're gushing, I'm blushing ♥

Hello there! I thought I'd drop you a review because there was a line (that I can't quote because of language) that sounded so much like my brother that I thought I'd commend you on your ability to write male first person. Well done. Louis sounds like a guy. Like my brother, in fact. But anyway, you pulled off something tricky, so ten points.
Loving the story, by the way.

An amazing conclusion to an amazing story! You have stayed true to your character throughout, and I was impressed and happy to see that all her problems didn't simply melt away once she began living in the wizarding world. Your knowledge of the historical context is commendable and enriched the story to no end. I loved this story right through, it's definitely one of the best I've ever seen on the archive. So congratulations again on writing this gem of a story, and I look forward to reading more of your work :)

Oh my gosh, you have a new story! *flaps excitedly* And it's Next Gen! Have I told you how much I love your Next Gen? I think I have. Anyway, review.
Cassian? I LOVE that name. Though I've never come across anyone else who's even heard of it before. This excites me too much.
I love your characterisations, and the split perspective of Lucy and Roxanne. I can't really get enough of your take on Next Gen Weasleys, so this story has made me super happy already :) Can't wait for your next update!

Author's Response: I do! and I need to get my butt in gear finishing chapter 2. I'm glad you love my Next Gens! I have so much fun writing them. Funny cause they didn't interest me at all until I got the idea for Just Another Midnight Run. Cassian is a good name! Roman. Anyway, there will be two more perspectives added in chapter 2 - I hope you like the boys ;) Thank you so much for reviewing!

I officially love you for this one line:
'why in the name of Plato's enchanted toga do I care?'
SO glad I stumpled upon this story. It's brilliant. I love it. I can't claim any Greek background, but, uh, I've been there, and I love Classics, so does that count?
Did I mention this is my new favourite story? Because it so is.

Author's Response: Ha! That was one of my favorites to write. And I'm so glad you stumbled upon this story as well! Yes, it very well does count. (I haven't even been there, so props to you. And the Classics are...well, the Classics. They rule.) Thank you so much for your fabulous review. It made my day.

So I guess I have a new favourite story.

Ohmygosh! I just died. And I'm actually being perfectly completely honest when I say I did NOT see that coming. I am in awe of you. *bows*
