Hello! I'm Alyssa. I joined this site just after I turned thirteen and I'm still here. Well, I'm here off and on.
Mugglenet is where I read my first fanfic, and it's where I tried submitting my first story. I met some of my best friends here.
This is just a great place.
I don't write very often, and when I do it's short. That'll never change, so never expect anything more than a one shot from me.
To anyone who has given me a review, thank you very much!
My first ever one-shot is Home, and my second is Talking in the Ministry. I don't think they are very good, so read at your own caution.

I really like this chapter. I like how he is only good in Potions. I really like how he doesn't like his dad. It makes it fun to read because he will be mentiooned a lot in the wizarding world. I really like this story so far and I can't wait for the next chapter.
Author's Response: Thank you! I hope you keep reading.

I like this story and I can't wait to see what happens next.
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad to hear it.

I wish that they would be friends again.
I like this story. Regulus and Sirius are done perfectly in this story. I can't wait to read the next story.
It's a really good story done perfactly in my opinion. :p
At age fifteen, Regulus Black became sole heir to the largest fortune in Wizarding London. At sixteen, his abnormal intelligence won him entry into the most notorious cult of Dark wizards on earth. At seventeen he made a mistake – one that he would never be able to take back – and his entire world came crashing down.
Enter London, 1979. The story of a boy who managed to defy Voldemort at the height of his regime. But what price did he have to pay?
This is an amazing story. Regulus is perfectly in this.
Author's Response: Thank you! Regulus is an incredible character overall -- I'm so happy you think I wrote him right.
I really love this chapter. There isn't anything that I don't like. In this sentence here:
I wasn’t surprised that I had discovered the boast so easily.
Did you mean boast or boat? If you did mean boast, then never mind then.
I love the part with The Death Eaters and the Muggles. I love how he thought about James and what he would do and then he acted. That was really great. I really love the characterization of the other Death Eaters. I think they were really good in that siruation. Alecto was my favorite.
I love the momories that Reg has when he drinks the stuff. I really like all of them, but my favorite one was at the Quiditch game. I really like all parts with Adele (however you spell it). The one where he hits that person when he was little was also great too.
I really like this chapter and I can't wait for the next one. I really want to know what happens next.
This is definentaly my favorite chapter so far. I'm so gald that he figuard it out. Then ending is my favorite part of the chapter. I love everything that Sirius says to Reg. I pretty much love everything that happens in this chapter. I can't wait to see what happens next.
I really love this chapter. I really like when he tortured the Prewett guy, but not in the way that I like people being tortured. It was just very well written. I really love where this story is going. The characters are amazing in this. I really love Regulus in it. The this between Sirius and Reg was great. I love it when they are against each other. I really can't wait to read what happens next.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! Lol, I get what you're saying about the torture scene. Yes, the Regulus/Sirius dynamic was one of my favorite things to write in this story, becuase it's really interesting that the same household could have produced two drastically different brothers. Thanks again for the review, and I'll try to post the next chapter soon! :D
I really like this chapter. I like how he did the thing of Voldemort in the begining. Isn't Florean’s in Diagon Alley though? Or does to path lead to Diagon Alley somehow? Besides that, I really like this chapter. I think it's funny that Lily kept almost saying important stuff. There is a lot more stuff that I liked but I dont have time to say it. I can't wait for the next chapter.
Author's Response: Omg, you're right! For some reason I was thinking that Florean's was in Diagon Alley, and it's in Hogsmeade. Thanks for pointing that out... i don't think I can change it now because it's integral to the story, but oi, how embarrassing! Well, in any case, I'm glad you liked the chapter and thanks for your review! :)
I can't believe that this story is over. This is my favorite story on all of Mugglenet. It's just so amazing.
I do have a question with the end. Did Regulus dissappear because he messed wit time too much?
That is probably wrong, so if you can point me in the right direction, that would be amazing.
The characterization of Regulus is just wonderful. It was so much fun to read this. I really want to tell you all of my favorite parts, but I would be taking all of the chapters and puting them in this review. That would be plagerisim, and one super long review.
I love how you ended this story, with the quantum suicide thing. That was a good idea.
This is my favoriteReg-life-story. I like how you made him really smart. I thought that he would be smart. I love the way you describe things in the story. Some of the times I had no idea what you were saying, but it still made sense. Like, I knew what was happening.
Reg's relationship with Adele is one of my favorite Reg/OC relationships. It was really good. When he left her I was almost crying. Almost. It was a sad relationship, but I know that he card for her.
The relationship with Sirius is great too. It's completly believable. It's kind of sad because he never sent the leter so Sirius would never know what Regulus did. It's a shame, really. Sirius will never know how Regulus felt towards him.
I know I've said this before, but this is just a great story. I hope you write more in the future. You don't have to, of course.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot this! I have an idea for a Regulus story for you. It's a songfic that I wanted to write, but I don't think that I could pull off Regulus, and I know that you can. If you want to know what the song is, then tell me somehow. Or you can say in the author respose and then I'll email you. You can completly ignore this, though. You don't have to write it. I just thought that I would share the idea with you!
Author's Response: Thank you so much for reading my whole story and for reviewing so regularly! It meant a ton to me to have a consistent reader who followed along. :) I'm not surprised that you have questions about the end, as I suspected that most people who read the story would. In one sense it's entirely open to interpretation, so I want the ending to mean whatever you think it means, because that probably has more relevance and resonance than anything I could say about it. However, the ending (for that matter the entire structure) of the story was based in the Many-Worlds theory of quantum physics. The theory is one way to resolve what physicists call "the quantum enigma," which is basically this really interesting but confusing aspect of quantum mechanics that essentially intertwines metaphysics/philosophy with regular physics. (I'm a huge physics nerd, as you can tell; I can't solve a math problem to save my life but the philosophy of physics is very interesting to me). That said, obviously the story is not about equations or abstract enigmas, it's about the possibility of redemption. So the physics is really just an analogy I use to facilitate or perhaps demostrate that quest for redemption. If that made absolutely no sense (I can already tell it didn't, ahaha), I'll be happy to explain it more in an email.
I like your comment about how sometimes you had no idea what I was saying, but it still made sense. I would love to hear you elaborate on that statement because it is very intruiging. :D Thanks again for your constant support; I think you were consistently the first person to review every chapter I posted, which is amazing!
Psshh are you kidding?! I would love to hear your idea for a songfic! I never have enough good ideas so I'm always open to suggestions. My email is: mktbug24@ sbcglobal.net (remove the space). Please email me with your idea and with any other questions/discussion points you have about the ending of the story.

I can't wait to see what happens next. I absolutly love this story.
Author's Response: Thank you! :D The next chapter's already in the queue, so you won't have to wait long.
Wow, I wasn't expecting it to end like that. I really like this story and I can't wait for the next chapter.
I really like this story. I haven't read one like it.
Author's Response: Thanks!
This is such a cute story. I love it. It's really funny to. It's a good combination.
Author's Response: Why thank you! I think cute and funny are a good combo too ;)
Your relationship with Fred existed almost entirely within a broom cupboard.
~*~
You and Fred: a Hufflepuff and a Gryffindor, two complementary souls. In a world where nothing is certain, you find comfort in a dusty third-floor storage room.
I really like this story. It was cute then it got sad. I like storys like that because I don't believe that storys have happy ending. This one proved that.
Author's Response: You're right, not all stories end happily. I enjoy writing things with dark tinges. Thanks for the review!
a nice sweet story
Just to reviwe again, I think you should continue on with this in some way because it's great.
Author's Response: I never thought of continuing it, but I do really love the pairing of Lily and Regulus. I may just try and get some more written for this! Thanks again for the review.
I really like this story alot and it is vary good.
Author's Response: I appreciate the review!
You did this song fic amazingly. Muse is one of my faveorite bands and you used the song perfectly. I love it.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! Muse is one of my favourite bands as well, and I completely adore this song. I'm so glad you thought I did it justice! :D
