Hi there! My name is Hayden. I'm a Hufflepuff on the Boards. I love fanfiction, writing, and Tom Riddle. At the moment I've got a story up: A Great and Terrible Beauty, which is something completely different from my normal writing. Also, most of the answers start coming out towards the end of the story, and I really can't wait until I get all of it done. Give it a read, and I hope you like it!

This is a great story and I like the way you switch to different characters. I can't wait to see what happens to Tom Riddle, he's one of my favorite characters! Hope you update soon! Cheers!

Nice excerpt! It looks like Keedie's drunk. But I like it all the same! I would like to see the way you describe the experience... looking in each other's eyes and then they collide with a plane, haha. But maybe she's not really drunk... Keedie's not like that... I have a hunch, and I think you know what it is.
Awaiting the next update!
Hayden
Author's Response: *laughs* A drunk Keedie...that would be funny. I see you and Saif are battling with reviews. Next chapter should be up tomorrow :-)
Date: 07/29/09 Title: Chapter 22: Learn To Be Lonely
'She forgot Melena’s strange behaviour and began a letter to her father, CRADLING HER RESULTS TO HER CHEST AS IF THEY WERE A PRECIOUS BABY.' I got that part! But how does the barman know who Tom's looking for?
I love how Keedie's hands are puny in the memory. GASP! Maybe they realize that they've been running into each other all these years in the pensieve! So cool!
Hayden
Author's Response: The barman saw them together when Aaron Dante was in hospital. He probably remebered the way they were looking at each other. Aww!
Date: 08/10/09 Title: Chapter 23: Thanks For the Memories
Yes! That was another amazing chapter! My favorite memory was when the two of them bumped into each other in Diagon Alley! It was so cute! The saddest memory was when Iris died. The 'Come Alive!' was just heartbreaking. But why did she not like Keedie so much? Being a pureblood Slytherin, she should have spoiled her and such, right? Iris is a mom! Oh, and if Keedie's pregnant but she won't give birth- it's just terrible! She might die in childbirth... and the baby might die a few hours after being born! Or the baby might die inside of her! So sad... But I think you said Keedie won't die in the epilogue. That doesn't mean that she might not GASP! Oh...no... I don't think that would work... what if you did something like Ariana dying with Keedie? In that fight that Tom and Gregor will have, someone might actually kill Keedie! While she's pregnant! It fits... but I don't think that's the way it goes. I can't remember any excerpt at all right now saying that Keedie is still alive... they fight in the 25th chapter right? I don't know, it's an idea I had.
Hayden
Author's Response: The Diagon Alley moment's one of my faves too! As for Keedie and Iris, I can't answer why she doesn't like Keeds. That's kinda autobiographical, so I don't know myself. Wish i did. Don't panic! Keedie is not going to be killed by Gregor or Tom. But they will duel....
Date: 08/10/09 Title: Chapter 23: Thanks For the Memories
Now we do know what happened with Iris, but I think it was a bit stupid of her not to just summon the book with magic. And she says 'At least we know she's not a squib.' I don't really like Iris.
Hayden
Author's Response: Good! You're not supposed to! :-)
Date: 08/10/09 Title: Chapter 23: Thanks For the Memories
I like how you had Keedie meet Dumbledore at the funeral. And when she yelled at him, and he was completely calm was really in- character. It was exactly what he did when Harry's godfather died! Very Good! *pats on back* NO WAIT! Keedie falls to her death while flying over London! That's not going to happen, but what if?
Hayden
Author's Response: *laughs* Keedie's a good enough flyer to stay on the broom. She's not gonna die, calm down! ;-)
Date: 08/10/09 Title: Chapter 23: Thanks For the Memories
I like how you put the Hepzibah Smith part in there, he's back at work! Is Keedie back at home when he's working or is she living with him?
Hepzibah never wants to talk about business. *Sighs* Does that go anywhere? Does Smith wheedle something out of Tom or the other way around?
Keedie's eyes are green and so are Lily's, so someone down there might be right about how Voldemort gave her a chance to live- because of Keedie's eyes. I was wondering if someone from this story is related to Hermione. Keedie might... they both have lots of big hair. I mean... divination isn't a very reliable branch of magic, is it? Who knows?
Hayden
Author's Response: LMAO at the hair comment! Keedie and Tom are staying in Keedie's rooms, and both are working. There's an extra chapter in the process of being written which explores that. :-)
Date: 09/04/09 Title: Chapter 26: Bring Me to Life
"I'm BAAAACK!" I was concentrating on my schoolwork. I think Saif will be proud of me :D He said to do my studies and then write fiction.
I like the new excerpt a lot! Voldy called Bellatrix Keedie! I guess he wasn't really paying attention to her and was lost in his memories. Poor Keedie. But then I like the part where Voldy tells her to get out. I would have preffered it if it were 'Get the hell out of my life.' I hate Bellatrix so much, but at the same time she's so much fun. I hope you make her the mad crazed up phsycopathic person that she is.
I can't wait for the next chapter! We have a very exciting romance drama full of deep confessions and all to get through! This should be a tearjerker. I love those. I'm smiling right now.
Hugs,
Hayden
Author's Response: I shud really be working too. This counts as english I s'pose. Only one chapter to go!
Date: 06/23/09 Title: Chapter 17: Song to Say Goodbye
Where's that picture of Keedie again? I can't find it.
Please just tell us something from the next thingie, do Tom and Keeds have a tiny conversation atleast? I feel so bad for him. I want them to kiss again. Or does Keedie leave him forever and then Tom kills Hepzibah Smith and everything. And what about that voice? Will we find out soon?
And I think that you're right about Gryffindors being provoked easily, ha ha!
For some reason I want to see Tom struggle to get Keedie back, and I want to know what he's thinking when he's sad & hurt because we never usually get to see what that would be like. I wonder what kind of thing the pre- death eaters are going to do.
Hope you can post soon! *smile*
Author's Response: I'll be putting a preview up later today. I'll try and make it as long as is fitting. I'm glad someone picked up the Gryffindor line. Also, Tom will certainly be struggling to get her back for quite some time. The picture's part of a signature, if you search her name. Please keep reading and reviewing, next chapter and preview soon...I hope! :-)
Date: 07/29/09 Title: Chapter 22: Learn To Be Lonely
Where do you get your quotes? They fit perfectly with the chapters. I'm still nagging you to update!
Hayden
Author's Response: I think long and hard. If I haven´t said so already, the conversation between Voldy and Dumbledore in chapter twenty of HBP is essential if you want to get the real punch of chapter twenty six.
Date: 08/10/09 Title: Chapter 23: Thanks For the Memories
Whoa! That was an awesome excerpt! Why would Keedie be taking a picture with the other two boys? Unless she passes to the dark side just to stay with Tom but they get separated when Voldemort gets blown up in Godric's Hollow. Or she might be like Narcissa Malfoy, she isn't a Death Eater but takes part in all of the things... or just stays far away when the Death Eaters are killing.
And if he didn't kill her, what if she killed herself somehow? What if something from my other theories happened?
This is so exciting, I can't say it enough! And I have to say that this story is quite popular now. Good Job! People always come and give more reviews when the story has more chapters. They think it would be interesting and popular so they come check it out to be in the know. *chuckles* These kids...
Hayden
Author's Response: I know, you're so right. Little do they know that the reviews are mostly you and Saif with crazy theories. The picture was just one during Potions class, so Slughorn can remember them. It's nothing big, Minnie just saw it in his office. She also just expects Voldy to have killed Keeds which, of course, he hasn't. ;-)
Date: 08/17/09 Title: Chapter 23: Thanks For the Memories
He's asking her to marry him? Oh My God. Just Oh My God. She says no, we know that.... but I agree, marriage is a big step for him when he's like this. I can't wait for the next chapter, I hope you can post soon!
Saif: I don't know what schizophrenic means.
Love,
Hayden
Author's Response: Chapter's in the queue, I swear! Can I just say, to everyone, thank you for taking time to read and review this story. Both MTT and Keedie are up for awards on the beta boards, and it's because you lot have been so supportive. So thanks! :-)
Date: 08/17/09 Title: Chapter 23: Thanks For the Memories
Unless she pulled off some sort of Lily-type of thing. Lily left Severus because she chose to go her own way and didn't like what Severus was doing and thought they were different now.
So what if Keedie doesn't love him anymore? She's chosen to go her own way? Even though she loves him still... and if she found out she's pregnant, then she wouldn't want to risk the child's life! I don't know... I think the reason would be something like that.
Hayden
Author's Response: You know Keedie very well indeed, I'm impressed. She won't stop lovin Tom, though, never fear. :)
Date: 08/17/09 Title: Chapter 23: Thanks For the Memories
No, no, no! How could her do that? Shove Keedie in front of Tom was the stupidest thing he could do in the world! And what if the baby dies in the fight? When she gets thrown out of the way? Or is this like the fight between Dumbledore, Grindelwald, and Aberforth? Where Ariana died because she was trying to stop the fighting?
Author's Response: It would be unfortunate if Keedie landed the wrong way after being shoved. Only time will tell...;-)
Date: 05/18/09 Title: Chapter 12: Bring Him Home
Oooohh, this is so much fun! Please post soon, I can't wait for the next part!
Author's Response: Hehe, glad you're enjoying it. Chapter thirteen is in the queue.
Date: 06/16/09 Title: Chapter 16: All the Things She Said
OHMIGOSH, it's been... four days and I am really bored. I need an update! (Don't you hate it when you have nothing to do in the summer?) AND. The epilogue?The EPILOGUE? Man, things are going to be really bad... I would think. If they're both going to be there... in the epilogue... I read chapter 20 and I was wondering if Keeds knew about the Horcruxes, too. And in the next chapter, she might find out and what if they fight and break-up and that's how Tom is what he is? Poor kid. Gosh, he's gonna get it!!! Please keep posting, this is a wonderful story. And you are a wonderful person with a great imagination, and we all hope you keep writing! YAY!
Author's Response: Can I just give you a warm-hearted thank you! It's down to your lovely reviews and enthusiasm that I have really enjoyed posting this story. Yes, the epilogue will be quite an exciting affair...as for the next chapter, I'm going to break the author code by telling you that you are so very close to the mark! There, I did it! I'm very bored myself, but posting keeps me occupied. Chapter seventeen and all its drama is in the queue...*grins knowingly* :-)
