SHIPS: I'm not even going to get into ships. I don't really write them, don't really support them. I mean, I might have a little subplot going where Lily and James like each other or something, but I really can't make a whole story about it. Just doesn't interest me.

Now it's time for... Quizzes! Yes, quizzes! With my commentary below. Like you'd actually want to read that. But whatever. And as you may notice, I've deleted some of my quizzes, just because I felt they were clogging up some room. Now off to take new quizzes!
You are a GRAMMAR GOD!
Congratulations! If your mission in life
is not already to preserve the English tongue,
it should be. You can smell a grammtical
inaccuracy from fifty yards. Your speech is
revered by the underlings, though some may
blaspheme and call you a snob. They're just
jealous. Go out there and change the world.
How grammatically correct are you? (Revised with answer key)
brought to you by Quizilla
Grammar God? I like the sound of that... notice that the picture is from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Just thought that was funny.
Remus Lupin -
You are the brains of
your group, and the most enigmatic - people
just cannot seem to figure you out completely.
You are reserved around large groups of people,
but are very friendly when approached. Though
you are soft spoken you command attention when
you speak. People respect what you have to
say. You are a very caring and moral person;
you would help anyone in need, even if you are
not particularly funny. You have a good sense
of humor and never take a joke too far like
some of your other friends may. Though the
phrase is not used much any more, you are an
all around nice person.
The Marauder Inside of You
brought to you by Quizilla
NO. WAY. I'm Remus? I never could have guessed!!! *hear the sarcasm* Not that I'm complaining. Go Remus!!!
What type of music matches your personality? (Guys and Gals)
You're classic rock! You're pretty mellow when it comes to everyday things. But when you get excited, you go all out by jumping and screaming. To other's you're very friendly because you love to get attention. Sometimes you just need your alone time to think, but that doesn't last long because you love to be with your friends. Your edginess and originallity will take you far.Take this quiz!

Reviewer: Kelsid Signed
Date: 04/18/05 Title: None*To contridict my other review* I see now this is AU so it makes more sense. Sorry. Anyway, cool chapter!!! Can't wait to see how Lupin reacts when he finds out.

Date: 04/02/05 Title: NoneAwesome story, I've always loved time travel (my current story is about that,) especially with the Marauders. Is there something going on between Remus and Hermione? That would be a nice twist, they are a lot alike... update soon!
Reviewer: Kelsid Signed
Date: 06/08/05 Title: NoneJust did. (Update my story, I mean, in response to your response to my review for your story. Does that make any sense? Oh well, I just updated my story. In response to your response to my review for...) [The editor would like it to be known that Kelsid rambles too. The editor is cutting this review short. Right now. Well, not right now, since right now was just a few seconds ago, but right now as in right then after I finish typing this. Right now, I think... Well, not right...] *The other editor stops everyone else from typing and presses the submit button.* IN SHORT: I updated my story. And I ramble too- so I don't mind. ;)
Author's Response: WAHHHOOOOOOOOOOOO! Im gonna go check it out right now. And what is life without rambling? How would we fill akward silences?
Reviewer: Kelsid Signed
Date: 06/05/05 Title: NoneYes, that review was meant for chapter four. I've been doing that a lot lately... anyway, I will assure you, there is no cheesy father/son moments, which is a relief to me also (and everyone else out there as well). Excellent story.
Author's Response: Yes, that is a big relief to even me, and I am writing the thing. Cheesiness is the most annoying thing, because is HP is one thing; it's definately not cheesy. Thanx for ur comments! (double thasnkyou that they are GOOD! lol). I love ur fic btw, ull have to UPDATE REALLY REALLY SOON. And everyone check out Kelsids fic, it rocks.

Date: 06/09/05 Title: NoneNO!!! Evil cliffhanger!!! James, James, James... HOW CAN YOU FORGET TO DISILLUSION YOURSELF?!?!?! *frustrated sigh* Let's see how all the little students react... Oh, and great idea about putting Colin (or Dennis, for that matter) Creevy as a Chaser. It was just a pleasant surprise- I never pictured him as a player. Put up the next chapter soon! I'm waiting on the edge of my seat!
Author's Response: Because they were preoccupied and young and foolish. The student body is in ofr a bit of a shock i must say. The ones who know who James Potter is at least.....

Date: 06/08/05 Title: NoneJAMES IS GOING TO TALK TO HARRY?!?!? I can't believe it- he should have listened to older Remus! Harry's probably going to like, kill him or something! Or die from a heart attack! (Well, he seems a little young, but you never know.) Gosh... I'm anxiously awaiting the next chapter on the edge of my seat. Does older Remus know what James is about to do? (Because he remembers.) Or are the Marauders actually changing the future? Time travel's a confusing subject... Oh, I remember on your review for Harry's Our WHAT? you said you were interested on how other author's let Sirius come back from the veil. There's a really good theory about that in the story, Fate by Liisa. (Also has time travel- goodie!) I think I might have also put that on the reply to your review, but I don't remember. Anyway, have the next chapter up soon!
Author's Response: Or is he going to talk to him? Who knows? Well, me, but that is neither here nor there. All will be revealed, when the Mods (who I shall bribe with chocolate at some point) accept chappie 6, which I have submitted. The older Remus remembers events as they happen sort of thing; he doesnt conciously remember their every conversation or meve; but it comes back to him as it is happening, if you follow. Things have happened differently this way round. Originally, Elder Remus did not talk to the Marauders. Or that's how I imagine it to have worked anyway. I'm glad ur enjoying my fic! Update yours soon!
Author's Response: Ie Remus felt the need to intervine this time around, with the discovery of Sirius' means of exiting the Veil. It has boggled my brain a bit, but I thought that if Elder Remus had talked to the Marauders the first time around, then Remus would have known all about Sirius faling through the Veil and so would have done things differently at the Department of Mysteries and so on. I cant tell whether I am making sense or not....its very late. Don't mind me, now I am just rambling.

Date: 06/05/05 Title: NoneOooo... good chapter! I really liked it! I especially liked that Lupin came to talk to the three boys... usually, Harry just goes, "Hey! You're my dad!" *hug hug* James: "I love you too, Harry! Now I won't ask anything about the future and I can already tell Lily's your mother and I don't care about all my friends' futures or my own! Let's go play Quidditch!" What I meant by that, was, I'm glad James doesn't automatically run into Harry and realize everything without an explaination. Oh, and that Lupin is there. Anyways, great story and I can't wait for the next chapter!
Author's Response: Thankyou very much...that was meant for chappie 4 i guess....? Anyway I'm really glad u reveiwed and confirmed that I didn't do the Cheesy American Moral Father / son thing, which BELIEVE ME I was trying hard to avoid. Next chappie is in queue, and has been for 3 days; but I'm not too worried; three days is pretty usual. Thanks again; I'm loving all this feedback. Keep it coming people! It really makes my day!

Date: 04/30/05 Title: NoneI liked it, very well done. Is Remus (future Remus) going to show up, or is this going to be more of a 'Harry and Dad' fiction? I can't wait to see what happens next!
Author's Response: You'll have to wait and see....... Glad you liked it, and on a side note, this is not a conventional story...no cheesy Harry/Dad bits *sobs* PPL xxxxx
When Saints Die, The World Stops Spinning by forsakenphoenix
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •
Summary: Hope, loyalty, love, despair, and tragedy. Through it all, Lily discovers the truth about the Marauders, the affable troublemakers who hide behind smokescreens but still glitter in shattered light. They aren't the glorious, graceful men they are often perceived as, but stumbling, awkward boys who are still trying to find their way out of darkness.
Reviewer: Kelsid Signed
Date: 07/26/05 Title: Chapter 1: When Saints Die, The World Stops SpinningFirst off, I must say, congratulations on getting this on the featured stories. I must say, it entirely deserves the honor.
At first, I was a bit hesitant. It was in present tense- seemed to be all about Lily and Peter. But I read on. And I'm glad I did, because the story turned out to be emotionally touching, and an unique glimpse at the four Marauders through the eyes of a friend.
Peter... Ah, Peter. You portrayed him as not a monster, but as a person. A person who had faults. I find this amazing, that you can make the reader feel pity for possibly the most revolting character in the series. This is what every author dreams of- (myself included) to make even the most despicable character have redeeming qualities. I'll never be able to look at Peter Pettigrew the same way again.
Sirius. Once again, I'm shocked to find you can present him in such a light- not just a funny boy that runs around, mocking teachers- but again, human. Somehow, I think you have a window- we see these characters as the book portrays them- but you look inside. You see what they're like. I can only marvel at your exceptional work. The extent of this really shone in Sirius's chapter.
Now to Remus. Perhaps the most touching out of all, I find it completely amazing that you can keep the character of Remus, yet give him depth that doesn't undermine his original personality. The fact that he knows her best of all, that he gives her comfort, gave insight into who Remus was. This touched me deeply, and I must say, it's every author's dream to create a scene like you did on this.
James. This was the briefest one, and also the part I'm going to comment on the least, but I must say, I know that Lily loved him. In only a few paragraphs, you had the reader captivated. You know. You simply know how much she loved him. Excellent job.
The last sentence had me nearly in tears- waiting for the world to stop spinning. It was the most perfect sentence I think I've ever come across. This story was beautiful. I can describe it as nothing other than beautiful. The depth you have, the wonderful way with words and the relationships, the way each Marauder means something different to her- It made this seem much more real. It stopped being just about Harry Potter the moment I read the first sentence. It could have been about someone's real life. This is the best fanfiction I've ever read. It's simply breathtaking. I love it. I absolutely love it.
Author's Response: I didn't even know it was a featured story until you mentioned it, so thank you. Anyway, this is probably one of the best reviews I've ever gotten. Thank you so very much for the review. I'm glad you could see past the fact that I can't write James for crap. But thank you so much. Reviews like yours make writing more enjoyable.

Date: 04/23/05 Title: NonePoor Remus! He lost everyone... everything he ever loved... this story was absolutely amazing. Remus's feelings are so real, and when he realized he couldn't take in Harry I started to cry. Excellent one shot, I loved it.
Author's Response: Aw! Thank you so much! It is sad. :(
Reviewer: Kelsid Signed
Date: 06/03/05 Title: NoneExcellent chapter! I always love the explaination part in every time travel or, in this case, Pensieve travel, story... which is sort of odd, but still. Thanks for putting my story in the beginning... I was really shocked. I just sort of went, "Huh?" and reread the whole thing. Here's a deal for you, now- When you update, I update. How about that? :)
Author's Response: i always love that part too!!!! you're very welcome.....it was so awesome that you were my very first reviewer because even then i LOVED your story! just thought it should be shared with the world....hope it gets you more r&r-ers!! as for the last part.....i promise ill try! :-)

Date: 06/03/05 Title: NoneThat review was meant for chapter five. Sorry.
Author's Response: thats ok, i understood!
Reviewer: Kelsid Signed
Date: 06/20/05 Title: NoneWonderful chapter- loved the Sirius and explosives!!! Sorry I hadn't reviewed earlier, I was moving to Chicago. Which also explains why I wasn't updating, responding or basically on mugglenet at all. Anyway, getting way off topic- great chapter! Lily should totally have heard them- but then just make them make up some super lame excuse and run off. Er... maybe that's not the best idea. Just do whatever you want. Have the next chapter up soon!
Author's Response: thanks for the lovely long review and the idea! i have a little of the next chapter written, but i really am having a crazy packed two weeks and as much as i would like to spend all of my free time in cyberspace, i just cant at the moment. sorry, guys! ill get it up as soon as i can....i hate keeping you all waiting!
Reviewer: Kelsid Signed
Date: 07/12/05 Title: NoneI'm so so so so so sorry I haven't reviewed!!! I''ve been having login troubles... getting my next chapter even to be put in queue list took about an hour... *sigh* Anyway, I'm praying this will get posted without me getting logged out. Wonderful, wondeful chapter, like always- what can I say? Lily's final confrontation had me on the edge of my seat- what's Harry going to say? I'd better get working on Chapter 18 now on Harry's Our What... *another sigh* Seeing you have an evil cliffie makes me feel bad about having an evil cliffie, so I'd better finish up Chapter 18 and send it to you. I also wrote another fanfic- but it's not really a fanfic, it's sort of an essay, but then again, it's not... well, it's confusing. I guess I'll just have to send it to you along with Chapter 18. Anyway, you HAVE TO UPDATE SOON!!!! Ideas, ideas... um... have Sirius try to carve a Hogwarts pillar into a statue of McGonagall! (Wow... looking back that was very random... I don't even know if they have pillar things at Hogwarts...) Just trying to help you out in any way I can! Once again, great chapter!
Author's Response: i totally understand about the log in problems...ive gotten to the point where i never submit anything without copying it, just in case...thanks for fighting through it! i just came here from betaing chapter 18! (we finally did it! lol) thanks sooooo much for the long review and the idea--you guys are really coming through with these pranks, and i appreciate it a lot.
Author's Response: oh, and i cant wait to read your new stuff!

Author's Response: *puts on evil grin* ill update if you do...
Author's Response: did you have to do it so fast??
Author's Response: alright...its in the queue
Reviewer: Kelsid Signed
Date: 05/11/05 Title: NoneThis keeps getting better and better... will Harry tell Sirius that he's not James? I think you should bring Lily into the story, (in response to your poll) that would be neat. Is Harry only going to stay until Christmas Break lets out? Update soon!!!
Author's Response: i haven't really decided about how long he's going to stay--it depends on how much writers block ill have at the moment lol. thanks for the review!
