Wow, that is good. It could be added to, but to be honest, it's perfect as is. Really, I think it would ruin the effect to be added to it. (I know you didn't say anything about putting more, but I just wanted to emphasize how powerful this is as a one-shot. Great writing skills: grammar, spelling, and style. The characters are in character and everything. I hope that this inevitible scene plays out something like this in the books. Again, good job!

Author Feedback: Wow, thank you! No, really, I'm very touched by your comments. I see this scene happening so differently than a lot of my HP-obsessed friends, so the fact that you enjoyed it means a lot! Thank you for your review! |

Very nice one-shot fic! I can see something like this being in book 6....which is ONLY 2 weeks away!!!
Oh...by the way, 20 questions the way you (and most of us) know it was not what Harry and Hermione played. I remember it as 1 person thinking of a thought, and the other could only ask questions to try and figure it out. Just an after thought! |
Author Feedback: Yeah, you're right about the 20 Questions deal. I just forced it to apply for the story. Is it bigger than a breadbox? Hehe, that's the one I always remember...Anyway, thanks for reading and reviewing! Yay 2 weeks! |

That was beautiful. I think it is the only story ive read where Harry and Hermione dont become a couple and yet it speaks volumes about the bond they share. Amazing Job!! |
Author Feedback: Thanks for taking the time to read and review--I know it was a rather lengthy piece, and I'm happy that you enjoyed it! |
| |
This was sooooooo good! I loved it! The 20 questions thing was bloody brilliant!
|
Author Feedback: Thanks for reviewing! I figured I was going out a limb with that 20 questions thing, but I'm really glad that you liked it!! |

Hey no worries! That was an excellent tale to start off with here! Really great work. Great job on how you started them out in the game and their various realizations about each other. The revelation of hte prophecy and their reactions to each other were awesome! Great job top to bottom! |
Author Feedback: Thanks so much for reading! This piece attempted to demonstrate how, in a way, you realize that the closer you become to someone, the less you really know about them. I think this is due to the fact that people assume too much about each other, and don't bother asking the simple questions! Thanks a LOT for your review!!! |

I liked how you got them talking about lots of different topics. I'm not surprised about Hermione keeping certain things from her parents (I wouldn't be surprised if it were the case in canon as well).
I liked the way it ended, with Hermione comforting Harry.
Thanks |
Author Feedback: Yeah the color comment (about not wanting to choose a favorite b/c the other colors might become jealous) was actually a tribute to my sister, who once said the very same thing when I asked her that question. It's interesting that you can spend so much time with someone and yet truly know so little about them! Thanks for your review! |

this story is magnificent
don't worry, most people aren't satisfied with their first fan fic. I think i actually deleted mine.
kudos to you |
Author Feedback: Hehe, yeah, I was about two seconds away from doing just that. Thanks for reading and reviewing! |
| |
A very nice 'reveal' story. I love the sweetness in it; the reader could fairly feel the promise of romance.
just a few odd phrases I caught that stuck to my poor memory:
[...her knew her deepest fears...]
[...no knowledge about her life her before... ]
one other thing, it should be Sirius's when you're referring to the possesive
Thanks for sharing your story. Keep on writing.
|
Author Feedback: Thanks for the critique! Yeah, typos abound in this story. Unfortunately I didn't catch them on my final read-through. But I've learned my lesson now! Thanks for the review! |

I liked your story very much. There is only one thing that bothered me about it. I think that there is no way that Harry could not remember the prophecy, word for word. Anything that important and life shaking has got to be burned into his memory. I did like the fact that you had them forming an even stronger bond than even they realized at the end. Nice story. Continue to write more of them. |
Author Feedback: Yeah I agree with you to some extent about the prophecy thing, but I sorta instinctively thought at the time I wrote the story that Harry would remember less of the actual wording and more of the meaning behind it. Plus, I've read some other stories where he recites it word for word, and I just wanted to be a little bit different. We'll see how JKR does it soon, huh?  Thanks for reviewing, I appreciate your criticism! |

That was a nice story. I think I like this version better than the 0 word one ha ha |
Author Feedback: Hehe, nah, I think a blank screen says it all! Thanks for the review. |

That story was very good. It was the best prophecy revealing scene I've read. My eyes even teared up a bit and that doesn't happen often when I read something. |
Author Feedback: Wow, thank you so much for your review! I'm truly touched by your comments, but I'll bet that JKR does much better than I at the prophecy revealing! We'll see in a few days! |

Author Feedback: Thanks so much for your review! It was my first one, technically, since the other one was just informing me that I forgot to actually, um, you know, UPLOAD the story. But anyway, it's much appreciated. Yeah, this story just sorta incorporated all those "what-ifs" I wondered about concerning Harry Potter, so in a way it came out of nowhere. Thanks again! |
| |
you forgot to upload the story. try again later maybe  |
Author Feedback: Ugh, thanks for telling me, I probably wouldn't have even noticed. Me+computers=complete mayhem. So yeah, it's up there now if you wanna check it out! |
