Uncle Fred Calls Him Dick by MagEd
Rated: 6th-7th Years •
Summary: 2008 QSQ Awards Runner-up for Best Post-Hogwarts
Harry defeated Voldemort. Harry married Ginny. Harry and Ginny had five children. Harry disappeared. My name is Lily Potter, and this is the story of what happened when my father returned after six years missing to find my mother about to re-marry. This is the story of myself, my crazy family, and most of all, this is the story of my parents and the man who tried to come between them. (pre-Deathly Hallows)
*Completed*
"Oh, I can so die happy now!" -Sirius Potter
Date: 01/09/07 Title: Chapter 7: Chapter 7: Aunt Angie Said He Was Handsome
Yay! Loved it!
Harry's attitude is perfectly displayed, and I just love how... stupid... Dick is. Haha.
I absolutely LOVE each character; the kids' admiration of their father, and each stage of maturity that each character has.
Anyway, keep it up!
Author's Response: Stupid, good word! Thanks for the review and the praise, I\'m glad you liked it.
Date: 02/01/07 Title: Chapter 8: Chapter 8: Aunt Hannah is One Smart Muggle
Whooooooooohoooo! Whoohoo! Well her heart knows her better than she knows herself so she's gonna let it do all the talkin'...
/KT Tunstall
Excellent chapter! I LOVE Ginny's attitude, how she's fighting back at Dick! Let's just hope she doesn't wait TOO long...
Hannah
Author's Response: Oh, I\'ve heard that song - I like it! Thanks for the review, and don\'t worry, now that Ginny\'s started to get her act together. . . .
Date: 12/22/06 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Uncle Charlie Realizes Everything
Ooh! Loved this chapter! It was really good, and I loved Harry beating up Dick... haha. Anyway, it's sort of all cleared up, so that's cool. I love your characteristization of dad!Harry! It was really realistic, and really close to how I imagine him. Awesome chappie, I'm eagerly waiting for the next one!
-Hannah, o' faithful reader.
Author's Response: Thank you for such a wonderful review! Sadly, there\'s a lot more left to be explained, at least on Ginny\'s part, but I\'m glad I was able to capture canon Harry all grown up :)
Date: 12/05/06 Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4: Uncle Fred is Going Crazy
Oh, wow. This is fantastic.
I really really like Lily as a character.
I HATE Dick - he's just a - a - jerk! I hate him. I had a similar experience happen to me with my mum's boyfriend, but I won't get into that. I really like how Harry doesn't like him, and Ginny always standing up for him is really well done.
Ginny's distress is also very well portrayed. She seems really distraught.
You've captured all of the emotions really realistically. i can totally see the PoVs of each character, and I want Harry to come back! I also lover your reinactment of the first kiss.
Please update soon!
Author's Response: Thank you for such wonderful review! I was afraid I wouldn\'t be able to capture Ginny in this situation so it\'s great to hear I managed to. As for the memory of Harry and Ginny\'s first kiss, I was one of those people who was teetering on edge in anticipation of that first kiss so was naturally a big fan of the scene when J.K. Rowling finally made it happen - I couldn\'t help but put it in! Thanks again for the review.
Date: 12/08/06 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Uncle George's Surprise
I must say, this has been fantastic. You see, I was on the phone with my dad, doing my algebra homework, when I went online to check an email of mine. I then got three emails - saying that my fourth chapter to a fic of mine had been accepted, a chapter another one of my favorite stories was accepted, and this one was! What an awesome surprise!!
I love how Harry was the stag... I had a hunch. And I love Dick's stupidness. And the way he acts is really frightening - in a very realistic way.
And I want to see a hug... and a lot of tears when Lily, and Harry officially greet each other.
Oh, I like Luna - new and improved.
Great job! And do try to update soon, but I, unfortunately, know the pains of RL stuff. ::sighs::
Author's Response: It makes my day to know that my story was so happily anticipated! As for Harry and Lily\'s reunion -- what sort of author would I be without hugs and tears?! Go Luna! Thanks for the review.
Date: 02/17/07 Title: Chapter 9: Chapter 9: Grandma Says Talking is the Trick
Ooh! Ooh! I love Fred and George! And Lily! Great chapter! Update soon! /over use of !s
Author's Response: I know, Fred and George have always been two of my favorite characters in the books. Thanks!
Date: 12/18/06 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Uncle Charlie Realizes Everything
Oh, squee! I can't wait for this be up! No matter when the next chapter comes out, this is still a totally awesome story, and I shall re-review when it comes out (which will hopefully be soon)!
-Hannah, a faithful reader of yours :-]
Author's Response: A faithful reader, oh that phrase makes my afternoon! Hopefully the chapter will be validated soon and give everyone, including my faithful readers (hehe), something to read over the Holidays.
Lullaby by crazy_purple_hp_freak
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Late at night, Lily rocks Harry to sleep. She murmurs this lullaby…
Date: 11/24/06 Title: Chapter 1: Lullaby
And if anything happens
For you, I would die.
My love’s unconditional,
You’re my Harry, my life.
Something in that really triggers the emotion. Just it shows how much she loves him. You really captured the mother/son in them.
I usually don't read poetry, but the title and summary really caught my attention. The lullaby is very pretty!
Excellent work!
The Order of Ravenclaw House Elves
Author's Response: That part probably took me the longest to write, but I\'m glad that the meaning came through. Thanks for reviewing! :D Oh, and what does \'The Order of Ravenclaw House Elves\' mean? Is it a Claw thing for the boards? :p
Date: 11/21/06 Title: None
Very nice. I love how down-to-earth Lily is, and Remus' histerics at Lily's lack of attention. I love how you describe allf of what's happening, and Lily is a friend of Alice's (I've always been for that theory)! Anyway, great job, and I hoep the mods like the next chapter(s)!
Author's Response: Thank you! I am so glad you like Lily. I always hate it when I read a story and I dislike Lily the way she is written. I also am glad people are noticing Remus! I found that he\'s usually something of a background character in other stories, generally there to be the \"bookish\" one, or the one to give advice.
I hope the Mods like my next chapters too! I submitted chapter 2 the same day chapter 1 got validated, but I guess they must be kind of backed up since it\'s already been 5 days. Thanks so much for reviewing!!! And I hope you enjoy chapter 2 (if it EVER get\'s up)! ;)
To Be Or Nott To Be by Schmerg_The_Impaler
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Theodore Nott has never had much respect for anyone but himself. But after being summoned by Lord Voldemort to join the Death Eaters, his world turns upside down, and he finds himself questioning everything, including his own values and beliefs. Darkish, but with surprisingly light and fluffy bits, kind of like my Dad's pancakes or a truly hideous dress that my Mum once bought for me.
Written by Schmerg_The_Impaler from Hufflepuff House for the Gauntlet's 3rd run. Whoot!
Date: 11/17/06 Title: Chapter 1: The Adventures of a Self-Centred Cynic
I really really liked November. A lot.
She's definitely NOT a Mary-Sue,although she does seem liek a lovely friend.
I also loved how you fleshed out Nott. We never really get into him, so an outlook into him was very fun!
Anyway, I loved this sotry! Two thumbs WAY up.:)
-Hannah
P.S. Just thought I'd add that pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconeiosis is my favorite word EVER. (I love going around and saying, "hey can you say THIS?")
Author's Response: HI, HANNAH! Thanks very much for your review! I\'m glad you liked my charries.
Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconeiosis is my favourite word, too. When I was in a vocabulary bee, our bios had our favourite words listed on them, and that was mine. The host of the bee didn\'t know what it was! (It\'s a disease coal miners get, apparently.)
Date: 11/17/06 Title: Chapter 1: The Adventures of a Self-Centred Cynic
oh, must figured i'd add that the review i just gave is an obvious reason to why you Beta for me. ;)
-Hannah
Author's Response: Aww. ^_^ Your story is awesomeness on toast, though.
Date: 11/18/06 Title: None
Hey, just wanted to say congratulations!! :) Great job! ::confetti::
Author's Response: And thank you to all your hard work!
A Past Reclaimed by nuw255
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Sequel to A Stolen Past. Please read that story first, as this one really won’t make sense if you don’t.
Harry Potter has rejoined the Wizarding world after a year-long absence, but still has no memory of his time at Hogwarts. Will he ever get his memory back? Will he be able to pass his classes without it? And most importantly, will he ever be able to defeat Lord Voldemort? Read on as the last of the mysteries introduced in A Stolen Past are finally revealed.
This is a story of friendship and mystery, with a healthy dose of H/G thrown in for good measure.
Date: 12/16/06 Title: Chapter 12: Chapter 12: Trial
Well that sure bites. Umbridge is evil.
Great chapter!
Author's Response: I couldn\'t have said it better myself. I\'m glad you liked the chapter. Thanks for reviewing!
Date: 12/19/06 Title: Chapter 13: Chapter 13: Depression and Rejection
Ooh. Lovely update! I really liked this chapter. 'Twas quite spiffing, really! I liked brother!Ron and angry!Harry very much, lol. Nice chapter, this was.
Author's Response: Thanks. I\'m glad not everyone wants to attack me for what I\'m doing to poor Harry. ;-)
Date: 12/01/06 Title: Chapter 7: Chapter 7: Parties and Presents
Oh, squee! Excellent sequel! Is Tyler coming back to Hogwarts yet? Or am I not supposed to be thinking that far ahead? Anyway, awesome job!
Author's Response: You\'ll find out about the future of Tyler\'s education in chapter eight. Cross your fingers for quick validation.
Lycanthropy by Zoheb
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: This 'poem' (For want of a better word) is not so much about 'Harry Potter' as it is about werewolves. But since werewolves are a major part of 'Harry Potter', I suppose that this might have a place here.
This is inspired by Cradle of Filth's 'Her Ghost in the Fog' and Opeth's 'The Baying of the Hounds'. Enjoy, all you sociopaths out there.
Date: 12/07/06 Title: Chapter 1:
Ooooooooh! Luna's poison clouds? Mwhahahah. I'd like to see one of those.
No but anyway, fantabulistic poem, and your metaphors were muy fantastico!
::coughs:: sorry, i'm weird.
Author's Response: Alea Jacta Est, as I almost never say.
"I Am...Who?" by Malika Potter
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Harry Potter wakes up at his aunt and uncle's house...with no memory of the past six years. He cannot remember magic, Hogwarts, or even his two loyal best friends. He does know that something is very wrong, and his relatives are treating him like a bomb that could go off at any moment
Date: 11/27/06 Title: Chapter 1: The Boy Who Lived?
Oooh. Interesting. I'm wondering how Harry's remembering everything and who that raspy voice is. I liked how Harry is very confused, but he has a sense of knolwedge on how everything feels odd, but it's not unrealistic the way you portray it.
Great job so far!
Author's Response: Thank you so much for reviewing! I\'m so happy that you like \"I Am..Who?\". Keep reading!
Lord Voldemort... and Bob? by Schmerg_The_Impaler
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: For Lord Voldemort, life is going swell, and everything is juuust peachy... until a ghostly visitor arrives. EXTRAORDINARILY silly.
EDIT: For some bizarre reason that I can't fully comprehend, this story WON the "Things that Go Bump In The Night" challenge in the Winter's Tale Challenge.
Date: 12/07/06 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter One and Only!
hahahahahah. Brilliant work, my dear!
"I rang your doorbell, you opened the door and killed me. I still think that was impolite. If you didn’t want chocolates, you could have just said so."
Hahaha. I was cracking up. Hilarious. I love Bob! She reminds me of like.... Moaning Myrtle... and Pansy Parkinson. Like, some one stuck them in a blender (do ignore the gory images) and meshed them together into a pancake!
I love your Voldy. He's mwhahahaha-ish, you know? You know. Okay. Sorry, I'm still in a weird mood after those M & Ms from... yesterday. I still cant believe you don't like M & Ms! ::is embarrassed::
Hem hem, anyway, good luck in the challenge!
Author's Response: Thanks, Hannah!
Ew, a Myrtle-and-Pansy (which are coincidentally both flowers) pancake. PANSYCAKE! Seriously, though, that would be the least tasty pancake ever. And I thought I liked any pancake ever made!
Cross My Heart by Jules_411
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary:
What if you always knew the answers – the results of your decisions before making them? Then you could answer this:
Does everything happen for a reason?
Can love replace what is lost?
Can a promise be kept forever?
Would you cross your heart?
~~~
Thousands of thanks to my AMAZING beta and friend, Maddy (Hatusu)!! Her fic, Take My Heart Away, is simply the best piece of fanfiction I've ever been lucky enough to read. You're honestly missing out if you haven't read it yet.
Date: 12/06/06 Title: Chapter 1: Cross My Heart
Oh, wow. It's so sweet! I want to meet Emily. I love how you give more backround for Hermione's life beforehand - as we don't get to see it in the books.
Yes, her hair was the same color, but it didn’t bounce anymore. It lay flat. Her eyes still made him melt, but they lacked the usual twinkle. Her smile was still contagious, but it now lacked the reassurance it had before. The confidence and certainty.
The imagery there is superb. i can really get a clear picture of that in my head.
I love Ron's "I'm your man"-ness - it's really sweet. I loved it.
Keep up the good work!
Author's Response: Thanks, Hannah!
I\'m so glad you enjoyed it!
Speaking of good descriptions, I\'m in the middle of your fic Meet the-- Children? right now...
