Reviews For When the Boat Comes In
Author's Response: Definately: children's pet envy is the bane of parenthood lol
Author's Response: Thanks ^^. I find it irritating when writers upload documents which are brimming with errors too (I'm dyslexic and I can manage to produce relatively error free documents just by using a spell-checker.) Hope you continue to enjoy the story
I'm also tickled that you used my suggestion for the snake's name. Reggie remids me of Longfellow, the ball python that lived in a tank in our biology classroom when I was in high school. He loved water about as much as it sounds like Reggie does. I hope that Hedwig doesn't stay in too much of a snit. I liked the spell to change Harry's voice. It makes sense that if you have a potion to change your appearance there has to be something to change your voice, too. This was very fun and I enjoyed it immensely. I'm looking forward to the next chapter and I hope you have a nice weekend. Bravissimi! Author's Response: Well, as you probably know by now, Hedwig had a reason for being a bit, well, hormonal: she was about to lay eggs!
Author's Response: I hope the following chapters don't dissapoint, then ^^ I've got lots planned for what remains of the autumn term
I find it interesting and useful that the snakes could sense that something was off about both Harry and Severus. I wonder how this talent might help in the future? I think Hedwig is feeling a bit jealous of Harry's new familiar. Hopefully, she will get over it soon and won't cause too many problems. Great chapter! Author's Response: Yes, it seemed sensible that the snake-handler should be a parselmouth, especially as those who have the gift of parseltongue are most likely (other than slytherin children, of course) to want snakes as pets^^ Snakes are very perceptive and can probably see through most glamours, mainly because the glamours were designed to fool humans, whose senses are practically negligable compared to most animals
Author's Response: Yes, Reggie was a great suggestion and I think it really suits the character I wanted to give the snake. Reggie is a good counterbalence for Harry, being so confident and self-assured. His outgoing nature will encourage Harry to be outgoing and there's nothing like the love of a creature to raise one's self esteem.
Author's Response: Thanks ^^
PS: Snape, Draco, and Slytherin's characterizations are great, and the idea of having Vernon be good is incredibly original and brilliant. Also, I like what you've done with Hermione and Nev. Author's Response: Thank you for your review, I'm really pleased that you're enjoying this fanfic. No, I don't update on Fanfiction.net, just here I'm afraid.
Author's Response: I think Sirius will rather like little Reggie in spite of his name ;)
Author's Response: Thanks ^^ I thought it would be fun to give the intelligent, illustrious, imposing Slytherin a slightly childish sense of humour lol! |
