The Hermione/Harry/Ron Relationship Explanation (in the context of my story)
In Behind those Emerald Eyes, I am trying to follow canon because duh, everybody loves it including me =) Because Hermione and Harry were best friends in the past (and went through MANY things that brought them closer to together as friends), I tried to show how much pain any person would go through at the loss of such a person in their life. Sorry if it seemed too romantic. I did try to show how Harry had feelings for Ginny (with leaving her a rose when he left), and how Hermione was interesting in exploring a relationship with Ron (its mentioned somewhere in the beginning of my story). With the scene of Hermione on the lake, I’d like to say that Harry was the last link to her memories of both Ron and Harry (as they were always a trio of friends), and so she was mourning the loss of her previous life. Because Harry did not return for Hermione (NOT because he loves her romantically, just because they are best friends and depend on each other in so many ways), Hermione feels that she knows he is dead, and so she gets rid of the last thing tying her to the painful truth and memories – the necklace. Anyway, there’s my lengthy and probably confusing explanation, but I hope you aren’t too critical =)
READ THIS!!!!!!!!: i forgot to mention it earlier, but i'm transferring schools in a week so i'm busy with all of that and much more. the update will be in a couple of months i think, but i can promise you a "juicy" chapter for sure. it will be pretty amazing, haha ;D thanks for understanding!
I love cheese. Well, I guess I could debate that with myself, seeing as I only like three kinds of cheese, and there are like a billion different cheeses in the world. Goat cheese is so totally gross though, and seeing as I come from Norway, where everybody loves the thin brown slices, I guess you could say I digress from the norm.
But enough about cheese. Let’s talk about my little “bio” here. I come from a land down under. Well, it’s no Australia, but it is beneath the North Pole. And quite cold, to be frank about it. Come to think of it, you can be frank about anything. I sit behind a Frank in math class.
But we are still straying from point. I love tangents. There are a huge part of my life. I feel that random conversation is the only way a person can ever truly get to know another person, be you talking about cheese or the pros and cons of carpet cleaner.
But yet again, I find myself not informing you, the curious reader thinking about what kind of crazy person would honestly write such a story, about who exactly that very person is. Or are you getting a pretty good picture? I love to confuse people, it’s one of those raw talents everybody is born with.
But my raw talent and strange joy in writing a Harry Potter fan fic is not mad, I can ensure you. Some people take up pottery, I took up a story. Hopefully one which all of you will enjoy.
So here’s to you, the fantabulous readers, and to me, the, I quote, “brilliant” author, so that we may join in joyous connection though writing.
Leave me reviews!! ; D
PS- If you are confused, feel free to email me. I love getting "fan mail" =)

Author's Response: Thanx for tellin me that I would have waited forever for nothing to be validated. Ppl would be really frustrated if I didn\'t know what what was going on and they wanted to read the fifth chapter. If they don\'t validate it I\'l probaly have to write it again in a different way.

Nifflers, Otters and Shrew by tickled_pink
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: What happens when the man Hermione feels far too embarrassed to ever see again (due to events entirely out of her control ... well, almost ... ) turns up as the new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher? The War is raging, the N.E.W.T.s are approaching, and the only question circling through Hermione's head (much to her annoyance) is whether or not five years older is too old.
It seems to be out of her control once again; avoiding Oliver Heaney for her entire seventh year seems not only difficult, but well near impossible ...
Excerpt from Chapter Eight
Oliver was a nervous wreck all through his seventh year class.
It took all of his will-power not to glance Hermione’s way every three seconds. He risked it only a handful of times, making sure never to do so when her face was looking in even remotely his direction.
As is usual with one who is out of control of a course of events one began, Oliver began to panic. Second-guessing himself was not something Oliver was prone to, and yet here he was, asking himself those terrifying questions. Did she get the note? Has she read it yet? What if it was all a bad idea? What if it all went horribly wrong?
What if she took the note straight to Minerva and told her everything?
Don't worry, this story hasn't been abandoned, just moving in a different direction than I originally planned!
Date: 11/22/06 Title: Chapter 7: In Which Hermione Works Herself Up Into A Rage And Oliver Wakes Up With A Raging Headache
i must say, your chapters just get more interesting and more interesting =)
Author's Response: Thank you!! And they will get even more interesting still.... heh heh heh!

The Harry Potter Literary Storm by Mind_Over_Matter
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: The Harry Potter Literary Storm has caused quite the sensation around the world, JK Rowling’s magnificent series of books touching the hearts of people of all ages. But what if Harry Potter was never written by JK Rowling in the first place? What if another genius was behind it?
Many thanks to the fantastic people who nominated this story for the Quicksilver Quills: Best Humour Fiction award. I'm truly flattered.
Chapter Seven, Part Five is now up - yes, that is the final chapter!
Date: 10/13/06 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter Five, Part One: A Troublesome Flashback
haha my favorite part was when everybody said in unison "you rock" to ron. lol it was the GREATEST!!
Author's Response: Ooh - this review makes me want to post chapter seven. *Fights the urge to spill all her story\'s personal secrets* Thanks for reviewing, and I\'m glad you\'re liking Happy\'s tale!
Date: 10/03/06 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter One: Little Baby Potter and the Hut Out at Sea
So I read this to my dad using different voices and the like. He got a kick out of it, like I did, but it was 11:30 at night and everything seems funnier then. But it really is really superbly funny!!
Author's Response:
I\'m glad you think so. As I should always say, if it gives you a kick at 11:30pm, then read it at 11:30pm!
... actually, it\'s a good thing I don\'t say that. What a stupid thing to say O_O
Thanks for leaving a review!
Date: 10/08/06 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter Four, Part Two: The Next Chapter About the Next Book About the Guy With the Thing
haha i love the monty python reference =D
Author's Response: ^^ Aye, me too. It\'s hard to escape Monty Python references when Schmergo\'s your beta reader.
Date: 10/08/06 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter Four, Part Two: The Next Chapter About the Next Book About the Guy With the Thing
hi it's me again. i figure since we seem to be on here at the same time, i may as well ask you a qyestion. (not to mention that getting reviews is one of the greatest joys in life lol =)
so where did your inspiration come from?
Author's Response:
^^ Yeah, may as well. I considered making a post in the Duelling club, because people could potentially have questions about this story. But then... well, few people seem to have actually read it. And I didn\'t want the thread to sit there and rot...
I definitely got my inspiration from the roots of this story. You know, the inspirations and theories. But I think what clinched it was the questions and statements that seemed obviously right or obviously wrong. Like, \'more people will die\'... duh? \'Voldemort is Harry\'s father\' ... Erk? Not to mention, I suppose it\'s just a coincidence that Harry looks like James? And \'Someone will die in the sixth book, but not Harry and not Voldemort\'.
And I have to say, it was very inspiring when I started to go and read FAQ\'s and disproved rumours, and came across the idea that there was no J.K. Rowling. Happy wandered into my head, and... yeah. I\'m glad you asked!
And after that I\'m hoping you\'re still glad you asked too...
Date: 10/08/06 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter Four, Part Two: The Next Chapter About the Next Book About the Guy With the Thing
haha ^_^ not to worry. i still enjoy your story very much. i'm rereading it while i wait for another review for my story and write the next chapter to mine. (behind those emerald eyes) if you're interested. it's not very funny though i try to put in a bit of sarcasm, cuz i'm only funny in person. that's why i'm reading your story =)
Author's Response:
^^ I know exactly what you mean. In person, my sense of humour is... well, very different from how it sounds once I\'ve written it down.
The name of your story sounds familiar to me... I\'ve probably seen it in passing once. But I\'ll be sure to check it out sometime. But right now, my one-shot Muggle Artefacts challenge is actually being written. Huzzah!
Date: 10/08/06 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter Four, Part Two: The Next Chapter About the Next Book About the Guy With the Thing
it's amazing how we're keeping this up on here *rolling of eyes* i feel so special! lol there are a LOT of stories about "behind [insert adjective] eyes." i only realized that after i came up with my title. but my title is going to play a key role in my story.... hehe just wait till the last chapter. but enough of that, it's probably starting to sound like an annoying mosquito. i must leave you, so happy writing!!
Author's Response:
*Dramatic abandonment movement of some sort*
Yeah, I feel special too. Also, a little loony, but that\'s not too unusual.
See you \'round some time then!

Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Ten years have elapsed since Dumbledore's death and McGonagall has Hogwarts back on its feet again. Hermione and Malfoy both teach at the school. But when a new teacher is hired to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts, everyone seems to feel that they've met him before. A story of mystery, passion, friendship, and jealousy… not to mention that Harry Potter has been missing for ten years and Voldemort is dead. (All violence is mild).

Hi yes i'm giving myself a review. it's always good to critique your own work. It allows for self improvement. So i think that this chapter was a bit too short but i didn't want to give away too much information... hmmm...I wonder how Ron died... *mischieveous smile*
Author's Response: So Ron did die, he is dead, not a ghost or hiding or anything. The questioins is why he died.
Date: 10/02/06 Title: Behind those Emerald Eyes
Yes, it is I, the one and only makinmagic323, come to leaveth a message for thee, my faithful readers.
Okay, enough with the crap haha =D
I think that my future chapters (for those who havent heard, there are ten planned for as of now) will bet getting a bit longer. Maybe 2-3000 words. Hope it doesn't bug ya.
Author's Response: Oops...I meant to say be getting a bit longer. Don\'t you just love the little quirks that make you you?
Date: 05/13/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1: Gingersnap Cookies

Author's Response: hahaha, yay for accidentally answering a review with a review....silly me =P
Date: 10/01/06 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Emerald Eyes
So hey everybody it's the brillaint author!!
I have changed my story from mystery to romance because I still do not know which category it rightly belongs to, but the myserty is still a large part of the story. I just have no clue which category to put it in! Hopefully a moderator will help me out...
Author's Response: Yes I love talking to myself lol. I feel that both the mystery of the story and the romance of the story play an equal role.
