7-12-2010: I decided to revisit MNFF to read some quality fanfics, and realized that this site helped a lot in my own writing, both fanfic and personal. I am currently debating as to whether or not I should start posting some of my newer stuff here, and I'm thinking I just might, at least some of my one-shots. If you are interested, please go to my blog (which is rated somewhat mature, only because my fics that are discussed are rated mature) and let me know. I'd love your input, and I've certainly grown as a writer.
The dream... Whoa. Intense. And it was so very real. The little girl was... extremely frightening in a brilliant sort of way. (Yes, that was a compliment.)
I loved this chapter, and I cannot wait for the next one you post. =)
--Kate/RP
Author's Response: Thanks! The dream was rather intense, you\'re right, but the main point I wanted to get across was that Lily wasn\'t the only one that suffered (though James suffered a great deal less, of course). I\'ll try and have the next chapter up soon!
This is definitely your best chapter yet! I'm glad James finally heard some of what Lily went through, even if it might be too late for him. He's got to patch things up, though, right? And we still haven't heard James' side of the story yet... Update soon? I'm sitting on the edge of my computer chair! =)
--Kate/RP
Author's Response: Thanks, I\'m glad you think so! I was a little proud of this chapter myself. Yeah, James did need to hear what Lily went through, so they can be on the same playing field -- but more of that later. Thanks for the review, and I\'ll try and update fast!
I really like this chapter. Well-crafted, well-planned. Great job! =) --RP/Kate
Author's Response: Thanks, I\'m glad you think so!
Yay for your updates!
Okay, so I absolutely loved this chapter. The whole situation reminds us that they all are, infact, teenagers. Wonderful job!
=) Kate/RP
GREAT chapter!! Excellent job. My favourite line was the ending lines by James. I love that Lily kissed him so randomly, too. Way to go, and send us more!! =) --RP
Author's Response: In most Lily/James fics James makes the first move, so I like the idea that it was Lily who, out of the blue, kissed James. I\'m glad you liked the fic, thanks for the review!
Yay for your updates!

Author's Response: Thanks for the review, I\'m glad you liked this chapter.
Oh, gawsh! Jamesie Poo Poo, what's wrong with you?! Stupid prat. Well, I mean, if that really is James... *suspicious eyebrow-raised look* Polyjuice? Imperious Curse? It's all a nasty prank, right? *hopeful eyes* But, he just got her a kitten! He can't be cheating on her...
Oh, I'm so curious! Please update soon! This cliffhanger is killllllllling me!
10/10 of course!
=) --RP/Kate
Author's Response: What\'s wrong with him indeed! It was a terrible cliffhanger, as many people have told me, but I\'ll try and update quickly, I swear! Thanks for the review.
[Continuation of Last Review]
I hate Andy. He needs to go find a friend and stop bugging Lily. This is all his fault. Ignorance is bliss, and he totally messed that up for Lily. Poor dear, bless her heart!
Okay, now I'm done bugging you! =) lol.
=) Rp/Kate
Author's Response: You could never bug me with reviews! I hate Andy too!
I'm reviewing the first two installments in one review, so here it goes:
First Installment: Very orginial idea with Lily's beauty. I like the idea of a transformation, and the tweezer lines were great!! Quite funny, and I'm really glad that you showed how normal she is. Great job with the Mauruaders and Madeline scene. Also, towards the end, the Slytherin scene was good too. Nice way to start off!
Second Installment: The idea of Lily thought to be dead is very orginial. The emotions you give James in this chapter are amazing and so real!! You definitely understand the characters. The "HAHA" spelled out with dead bodies/body parts is also very orginial, but also very believeable from the Death Eaters, so even though that was morbid, it was sinister in a very real way. I liked that you had Sirius check the papers before James' read them--that showed how close the Mauruaders are. Having Peter find the bodies under the leaves was another orginial and terrifying moment. Finally, great cliffhanger!!
Overall, you've got a really orginial plot and a very good start here. I can't wait for more!! One suggestion would be to italicize the last line of the 2nd installment, if nothing more, to show the intense impact it has!! Great job so far!!
Author's Response: Oh, reviews like this make writing and the endless submitting process worth it! I\'m glad you like it so much, I was afraid Lily/James fans wouldn\'t like the seriousness of the whole situation. I love to write Harry/Ginny, but really I can do the most with stories about James and Lily because so little about them is really known. I can really cultivate their characters--I\'m glad to see you liked what I decided to do with them. Thank you for the review!
Yay! Great chapter! I loved the "task" Lily set... Perfect. I can't wait for an update!! =) --RP
Author's Response: That\'s clever Lily for you!
Aww, very good chapter. In this chapter, I especially loved the flashback. It seemed to flow very nicely with the rest of the flashback. Also, the chapter's motif of corniness was good; it was humourous and cute! In my opinion, this is the best chapter so far. Two thumbs up and a smile sent your way! =)
RP
Author's Response: Thanks so much, I\'m glad you thought the memory fit into it well! The corniness was pretty sweet, wasn\'t it? :)
lol, funny little ending there. Very cute. I loved the fluffiness but reality of it all. Great job!! =) --RP
Author's Response: :D Thank you! There\'s just something satisfying about fluf, isn\'t there? *giggle*
Kind of confusing... I think you have a good plot idea, but you needed to spring it into action more... Give us a two chapter fic. This chapter could be a 2nd chapter and the first could be them getting drunk or whatever and then switch to this chapter and tell us how she knows she's pregnant. Also, I'd like to see Ron's reaction... Just some of my thoughts. It 's a good idea, but I feel like you didn't follow through completely. Definitely a good starting point! =) --RP
Wow. This had so much truth embedded in the piece, it was like it was braided with imagery and meaning... Lovely job. Brought tears to my eyes.
Author's Response: Sentiment is always a good thing. I\'m not a \"tissue reader\", so to speak, so I always like to know if my writing inspires such. :) Thanks!

Aww, very cute. Lovely little fic...+10/10! =) --RP
Author's Response: Thank you!!!
Oh, no... That's a good cliffhanger, by the way. Good chapter! Can we look forward to a quick update? *hint hint* =) 10/10! --RP/Kate
Great start!! Keep these chapters coming!! =) Update soon? 10/10 so far!! --RP
Is it James? Who's the figure? Update soon, please! Good chapter, btw! =)
--RP
Aww, very sweet fic. Nicely done! =) --RP
Author's Response: Thank you!
Love your username, btw.
Looved it! Perfecto!! Favourite line was Sirius', "'Atta boy Prongs, 'atta boy." Good one!! =) --RP
