Hi, I'm Valentinia, your typical Harry Potter obsessed teen.
I've read the HP books so many times that I've lost count, but I'm guessing most of you on MNFF have done the same!
Otherwise, I'm pretty boring.
My favorite band is Evanescence.
My favorite HP characters are Luna "Loony" Lovegood and Petunia Dursley.
My favorite HP book is PoA.
My favorite HP chapter is "Career Advice" from OotP.
My favorite HP film is probably OotP.
My favorite HP actor is Evanna Lynch. There're a lot of great ones though!
I'm an all-out Ron/Hermione, Luna/Harry and Ginny/Neville shipper. *Sigh*. I know, I know, Canon just sort of ruined those last two. Still, Harry/Ginny was okay. I guess.
I also love stories about Parvati, Padma and Lavender, because I think they deserve some character and depth and they're often deprived of it and made into girly non-humans.
And here some cool things from other people's profiles:
Weird is good, strange is bad, and odd is when you don't know which to call someone. Weird is the same as different, which is the same as unique,so weird is good. If you are weird and proud of it, copy this onto your profile!
92 percent of American teens would die if Abercombie and Fitch told them it was uncool to breathe. Copy this in your profile if you would be the 8 percent that would be laughing your head off.
If you're one of those people who get excited when you see just two reviews, paste this into your profile.
If you've been on the computer for hours on end, reading numerous fanfictions, copy this into your profile
If you don't watch Laguna Beach or the O.C. or The Hills religiously, never have, never will, and are proud of it, copy and paste this into your profile.
You know you live in 2007 when...
1. You go to a party, sit down and take MySpace pics.
2. You haven’t played solitaire with real cards in years.
3. The reason for not staying in touch with your friends is that they don't have AIM/LiveJournal/MySpace.
4. You'd rather look all over the house for the remote instead of just pushing the button on the TV.
6. Your evening activity is sitting at the computer.
7. You read this list, and keep nodding and smiling.
8. You think about how stupid you are for reading this.
9. You were too busy to notice number five.
10. You actually scrolled back up to check if there was a number five.
11. And now you're laughing at your stupidity.
12. Put this in your pro if you fell for it. You know you did.
Ninety-five percent of teenagers are concerned about being popular. If you are one of the five percent who aren't, copy this, put it in your profile, and add your name to the list: Queen S of Randomness 016, Queen B of Randomness 016, AnimieKittyCaffe, The Gypsy Pirate Queen, That Bloody Demon, The Astrology Nerd, Shadow929, Crazy Billie Joe Loving Freak, Yavie Aelienel, Hyperactively Bored, Spymaster E, Shanny-Boo, Gem W, Brown-eyed angelofmusic, piratesswriter/fairy to be, Bara-Minomoto, Em Quagmire, Buffy The Mary-Sue Slayer, Random Little Writer, SamanthaFantasyFan, EdwardAddict, Supergirrl, Elemental-ANimal, Mother Nature's Daughter, Schmerg_The_Impaler, Carmona, Hanabi, Valentinia

A Few Short Words by Book Worm
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: It is surprising how a few short words can have an incredible effect on your life. This is a story about Severus Snape, and a few words that may have affected him. This is sort of angsty, and it's up to you how romantic you find it.
Date: 05/28/06 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
what a touching story! really well written!

Author's Response: Thanks for the positive feedback!
Marie-Antoinette by Tinn Tam
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Runner-up for the QuickSilver Quills Award, categ. Best Alternate Universe
“No matter the time or place, people should never call their child Marie-Antoinette. There is no happiness in this world for a girl called Marie-Antoinette.”
1983. In a world where Voldemort has won the First War, where hope has fled from an Earth moaning under the Dark Lord's iron hand, marriages are broken and others are arranged in order to preserve the sacred purity of blood. James Potter loses his wife; now they have to find another for him.
Date: 09/13/06 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter Four: A Black Ray of Sunlight
Poor kid!! Great story! I love the idea of what the world would be like if Voldy had won the first war! Marie-Antoinettes thoughts are very touching and realistic, too. Can't wait for more!
Author's Response: Thanks for the review, and I\'ll try to give you more ASAP!
Date: 07/30/07 Title: Chapter 7: Dinner at the Lestranges'
Creepy! But really cool! I loved the little insight into Bella's head... that was creepy but I love the way you characterize her! And I love Marie as a character! She's a really good OC, and I hope she goes over to the right side in the end... Plus, I wonder what's up with the Order... is Dumbledore dead? Are they still trying to fight at all? Great fic! So many questions! I hope you update again soon!
Date: 03/23/07 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter Five: Two Elves
Well the wait was long... but, as you said, our patience was definitely rewarded! :D This was a long, great chapter! I really enjoyed seeing the interactions between her and James, even though they were far from pleasant. Plus, I love Lali, and Marie's evil plan! :D This story is so original, I've never read anything remotely similar, and I love it! :D I hope the next update comes a little sooner than this one though, what do you say? :)
Author's Response: Thank you, I\'m glad to know it was worth the wait. However, I\'m in medicine and really, it\'s a wonder I can update at all. Thanks for being patient with me.
Narcissus by Blinded Moon
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Every night, young Sirius Black would leave his bed and sneak out of the dormitory. One night, a lovesick Remus follows him and sees a peculiar sight. Based on the ancient Greek myth of Echo and Narcissus.
Date: 06/12/06 Title: Chapter 1: One-Shot
i don't really like this pairing, but this was still a good (yet sad!!!!) story!
Author's Response: A lot of people have been saying that. Glad you enjoyed it!
True Love? by volition112
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: [One Shot] It's a hot summer day on Privet Drive and Hermione is going to help Harry move out. But she gets to talking to Dudley and... Well the question is... is it True Love?
Date: 08/02/06 Title: Chapter 1: True Love?
Lol. When Harry came in it kinda became obvious that it was a dream. But until then... I thought it was real! I dunno... Hermione and even Dudley seemed pretty in character.... Okay, I'm nuts. Funny idea though!
Author's Response: lol yeah xD i thought that there needed to be an abrupt change :P i\'m so glad you thought it was believable! :D i think that that would be how Dudley acted if he came across a pretty girl ;) if you\'re nuts for reading it, then i\'m crazy for writing it xD THANK YOU!
Harry Potter and the Magical Myths by nuw255
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: A man from Interpol comes to question Harry Potter as part of a murder investigation. How will Harry react? And how will this affect his search for Lord Voldemort’s Horcruxes? Plus, the question we all want answered: What will happen with Ginny?
This story picks up immediately after HBP, and is very slightly AU. But hey, aren’t they all?
Date: 10/03/07 Title: Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Fear
....... But he doesn't die, right? *hopes* What a horrible cliffie!!!! You must update soooon!!!
This chapter was really great though - I love how you described the battle and made it scary and real without giving unnecessarily gory descriptions. Also, Harry's character was amazingly true to the entire series and to this fic! (Just had to mention it again). Great chapter! Update soon!
Author's Response: Ah, but that would be telling, Valentinia. You should know better. Actually, it never hurts to ask, but I don\'t think you really want me to answer your question. I mean, it would ruin all the suspense! I\'m really glad you enjoyed the chapter so much. Now I have to go edit the final chapter so I can upload it. Wish me luck!
Date: 06/03/07 Title: Chapter 32: Chapter 32: An Unexpected Plea
Wow. You're right, that was a very unexpected plea! I really liked seeing into Petunia's mind a little bit, and, though it really isn't an excuse, it did help to understand her actions. Plus, I can't wait to see the confrontation with the Death Eaters! I hope everyone comes out okay! This chapter was brilliant, but update soon, I must find out what happens next! :D
Author's Response: Thank you! I think you nailed the way I see Petunia in this story--I can see why she did what she did, even though I happen to violently disagree with her actions. Glad you\'re looking forward to the next chapter. :-)
Date: 08/14/07 Title: Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Houseguests
:D Loved this chapter! I really enjoyed seeing the Weasley's reaction to the Dursleys! And Ginny and Ron making up excuses for the Horcrux... Just made me grin! Plus, the plot is amazing and I can't wait to see how this fic continues! Please update sooooon!
Author's Response: Thank you! Sorry for the recent delays, but I hope I can get things going more quickly again soon.
Date: 05/19/07 Title: Chapter 14: Chapter 14: Harry's Secret Plan
Losing readers because of this? ... Okay, when I first saw where it was going, I thought I might drop reading this. But everyone who, like me, finished reading this chapter must realize how realistic this is for people like Harry and Ginny in the middle of a war. Just wanted to say that. Oh, and so far, this fic has been brilliant! Original, well-thought out, thoroughly canon and IC not to mention wonderfully written.
Author's Response: Thank you very much! There seems to be quite a split among fans on the issue of Harry and Ginny getting married very young -- some think it\'s too unrealistic or sends a bad message, while others (like me) like to have fun with it. I\'m glad you decided to stick with it.
Date: 10/19/07 Title: Chapter 37: Chapter 37: Answers
Woah. It's over. What a bittersweet feeling! The ending was great, I must say, as was the entire fic! It was an entirely plausible book seven, with more romance than DH had (which I enjoyed immensely!) and just the right mix of fluff and battle and friendship and all those good things to make it flow perfectly with the Potter saga. I'm amazed. This fic was brilliantly told, and the plot was original and wonderfully suspenseful, romantic and adventurous. This is one of my all-time favorite fanfics! I'm just sad it's over... *sniff*
Author's Response: Bittersweet about sums it up. I\'m really glad you found it plausible. I really missed the romance in DH, although I understand why JKR didn\'t put much in. I\'m very glad you enjoyed the story so much. Hopefully I\'ll be able to get you hooked on something else soon! ;-)
Date: 09/27/07 Title: Chapter 35: Chapter 35: The Calm Before the Storm
Awww. Loved the fluff! This chapter was great!! I liked a bit of a break from Voldie (though I suppose he's always in the background) for some sweetness. Ginny and Harry are so cute, and I feel so sorry for them having to hide their relationship all the time. But I loved Ginny being called Potter! This chapter was great, but I'm looking forward to the battle all the same! Update soon!
Author's Response: Thanks! I had a lot of fun writing this chapter, so it\'s nice to know that other people like it too. And don\'t worry; Voldykins is coming up next!
Date: 07/11/07 Title: Chapter 33: Chapter 33: Rescue
The Dursleys at headquarters! Never thought I'd see the day... Yet, it makes sense! :D That's what's really lovely... And, I enjoyed the battle with Voldemort! Really well-done! Plus, having him be injured is a good way to not make it seem like Harry's suddenly unnaturally powerful... It's amazing how it all fits together! Update soooooon!
Author's Response: Thank you very much! I\'m glad you caught that about my reasoning for how Harry was able to beat Voldemort with relative ease. I really wanted him to whip Voldy in front of Vernon and Dudley, but it didn\'t seem realistic until I remembered that since Dumbledore was still injured, Voldemort probably would be as well. ;-)
A Rat's Tale by Draco_n_Lily
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: One morning, Harry Potter, is reading the Daily Prophet when an interview with a man he met some time back catches his eye.
~*~
A one-shot by lily_writes and Dracoslovebunny.
Date: 06/04/06 Title: Chapter 1: Straight From the Rat's Mouth
i like how you tie in pettigrew's fate with a fluffy mini-story about harry's family! good story! you should continue!
Author's Response: DLB says: We\'re considering options for followup articles or something, somewhat of a one-shot series.... some of them might be bubbly, some darker. I hope we keep you as a reader! Thanks for the comment!
Author's Response: LW says: I never really thought of doing that, but it\'s a good idea. Thank you very much.
The Cloak by cmwinters
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: How Harry Potter got his invisibility cloak and who gave it to him
Date: 05/23/06 Title: Chapter 1: The Cloak
interesting... i'm not sure how you missed the fact that dumbledore gave him the cloak but i must say i'm glad you did... this story is really a good take on peter's character
Author's Response: I missed it because I was on a speed-re-read of things and that wasn\'t what I was looking for when I re-read them.
I wish I could take credit for the idea that Peter had the cloak - alas, it was not me that came up with it. But certainly I loved the idea. :)
Thanks for reading and reviewing!
Azkaban Memories by midnight_me
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: After being accused of being a Death Eater, Severus Snape is sent to Azkaban. While there he meets a familiar prisoner—Sirius Black. While in Azkaban, the two discuss an event from the past, and relive a horrible memory.
Date: 09/29/06 Title: Chapter 1: Azkaban Memories
The irony! Poor Sirius! Though this is quite shot, it's a very good take on what Azkaban is like, and on what Sirius and Snape's relationship was like.
Author's Response: Thanks for the review!

Date: 06/04/06 Title: Chapter 1: Difference

Author's Response: Thank you, Valentinia! I\'m happy you liked it :)
