Oh my goodness, I was *dying* laughing! I loved your dialogue and you have a great sense of rhythm between James and Lily & James and Sirius. I actually love your ending and how you turned that prank into the first successful asking-out of Lily and James.

Some of my favorite lines are the funny one-liners, you are so great at that.

Anyways, I really enjoyed your fic, and it's actually going on my favorites list now. Thanks for doing the challenge and I hope you had fun writing it!

Author's Response: Oh gosh, thank you so much!! It was a load of fun to write. Thank you for such a great challenge! I noticed in the forum you said my banner was nice - it's by Niika on thedarkarts, my favourite artist on there, she did my sig and avatar in the forums too!

Hahaha, this is a hilarious one-shot! I love that "Nick's" indignation just springs off the page at you! Well done!

Author's Response: Thanks very much!

Hahahaha, I love the title to this chapter! I'm just picturing a lolcat saying that right now. With a castle chess piece. Hahaha, I wish I knew how to make chapter images because I would totally do one for you for this chapter. Well done!

Author's Response: Thank you!

Hahaha, the first year speech is hilarious! I get the feeling that the Slytherins aren't all hunky-dory with one another, but maybe that will change with this group of first years?
Great chapter!

Author's Response: Thank you very much!

Haha, Rose is so annoying with her opinions, she's the perfect combo of Ron and Hermione's personalities!
I really wish I knew what Scorpius was thinking! He's so quiet, but I can understand why.
Great start, I will be reading more!

Author's Response: Rose *shakes fist*

Thanks very much for the review!

Hi, I heard about this on HPPC Story Seekers podcast, and I must say it has just made its way onto my favorites list! It was absolutely genius and very moving. You did a great job of seamlessly transitioning between the inner thoughts of all the characters. I loved the tiny details you put in to show that this was a well-worn family (Grumpshine the Car) and you have given them all such a sense of history together, without really talking about the war at all. Overall, quite impressive! 10/10

 Report Review

Wow, that was wonderful! I've never read a fic where Rose was a Slytherin, but I like her and the way you characterized her a lot. She's just sneaky enough without really being evil. I wonder how Ron reacted to her Sorting, haha! Overall, really well done!

Heard about this on HPPC. This is my favorite of the three Petunia Dursley fics they talked about because I felt you stayed so true to the characters from canon. And I love the extra scene you added about the last time she saw Lily and how she gave her a cast off as a Christmas present and just disregarded the last material item Lily had given her before she died. I think she really did feel sorry she would never see her sister again.
You did well with the Vernon character in this, too, even though he was a minor character. Just overall, I really liked this entire fic. Wonderful job! 10/10

Author's Response: Thank-you very much for your review! I had no idea my fic was being talked about on HPPC. Or what HPPC is, to be perfectly honest xD But all the same, it's made me happy. I might have to hunt that down.
Very glad you enjoyed reading!

Heard about this on HPPC. It was very fluffy with the Lily/James parts, but not in an altogether terrible way. I wish you had explored the character of Vernon a little more in this. Not bad, though.

Author's Response: I know; I wish I had, too. I wrote it on a sudden impulse *laughs*. Thank you for your review!

I read this after hearing the podcast about it. I was also a little put off by the end, but in more of a "what a creative genius" you are way. You've done a really great job of creating a character here that is relateable and likeable, so you feel bad about what happened at the end. I was kind of horrified for him when I read the line about the icy hands of Lily. Well done.

Wow, I laughed out loud so many times while reading this fic. I have tears in my eyes from laughter. Like legit funny tears. That was great, thanks!

 Report Review

Oooh! I like the dialogue. Especially the "..."s. Very witty. I'm off to read the sequel!

Author's Response: Thanks for the review :D

Favorite line: "Thank mercy no woman had co-operated with Willy thus far, and the world was spared the misfortune that would be a continuation of the Potswill line." Pure genius! This was great, thanks so much!

Author's Response: Haha XD Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!

Oh my god, there were too many *hilarious* parts for me to count on my fingers and toes. Seriously, they were so funny and you landed every single joke. I honestly hope there is another installment coming!

 Report Review

Oh my gosh. Wow, this was too incredibly special and sweet. You are a wonderful writer. You mixed in the humor with the poignant and the romantic. It was just perfect! I'd love to see a sequel if you've got one on the back burner.

Hahaha! Reminiscent of A Very Potter Musical where the Sorting Hat eloped with the Scarf of Sexual Preference! I especially love Gryffindor's reaction! This is a funny little tidbit and I liked it a lot! Well done!

Author's Response: Heh, heh. I heard about that... :P

Gryffindors are my favorite Harry Potter characters to make fun of, closely followed by effeminate Slytherin males. Don't ask. I'm glad to know you liked this! Thanks for leaving a review. :)

I love this story, it's so fantastic!

Next chapter up, looking forward to your thoughts on that one.

I love your story! Seriously, I have read Janet Evanovich and your stuff is on par (if not better) than hers. I am always laughing! Big hugs to you, I will be missing your fic whilst you are on vacation!

Author's Response: Wow. Thank you so much! That's such an amazing compliment. I really love Janet Evanovich's books. Wow, thank you. I'm totally stunned.

Very good. I liked it a lot. It's unique and I feel like it conforms very well to the characters you chose. All in all, nicely done.

Author's Response: Thank you so much for such an encouraging review! I'm sure Bellatrix/Lucius pairings are quite unpopular but I quite like the idea that they could have been in love once?

Thanks again!

Wow, I love your story, it is so unique! I'm glad Severus is really trying hard to become whole again, but I wonder how he will find it in him to feel remorse for Dumbledore's death. Great story, one of the most unique plotlines out there!

Author's Response: hokiechick-

I'm glad you're enjoying it. We are getting very near the end...

Ooh! I like where this is heading! I didn't understand last chapter how he would know it was the real Lily, but the pajamas make total sense! I'm looking forward to the next chapter a lot!

Author's Response: Yeah, James has this really complicated way of knowing. I'll explain soon. haha. Thank you so much for reviewing! I'm glad that you liked it!

This is very good! I love your attention to grammar and punctuation and spelling, that always makes me happy! And your plotline is pretty unique so far. By the way, very cool making Dom a Hufflepuff, it goes along with the whole unnoticed thing. Overall, I'm impressed with your first chapter, good job!

Author's Response: I'm so glad you like it! And yeah, I'm a grammar freak, so if you ever see anything that's wrong please point it out :P. Thanks so much for reviewing!

Ugh, Percy never had any sense of family loyalty! Stupid Aunt Audrey! I hope Hermione outdoes him by a landslide! Glad to know Rose is finally upset enough to tell the truth when it comes to Scorpius-related issues.

 Report Review

Oooh, I just love Dramione! It was a pretty cute story, I must say. And I love the last line. It's what made me want to leave a review, I'm such a fan of last lines. Overall, nicely done!

Author's Response: Thanks, the last line came very spontaneously as i was finishing the story off. I'm glad it made you review this, I really appreciate it. :)

Oooh! I knew Justin was awful! Just look at his awful kids! Hermione doesn't need a man in her life, and I certainly hope she doesn't just run back to be with Ron simply because he drove himself to heart failure! Ron certainly doesn't deserve the awesome family he has either, I hope he comes to terms with that! Well done!

Author's Response: Hehe, yeah, Justin is really a snake. Like Shakespeare said, "appear the sweet flower, but be the serpent under it". Or something like that. I think I just butchered that quote. Oh well. Its very early in the morning here. :P Ah, good points. What will happen between Hermione and Ron now? I think too much has transpired between them for them to go back. So I wouldn't worry there. And haha, yeah, he kinda doesn't. But that's why they're family - they love you regardless of how much of a jerk you are. Thank you so much! :)
