absolutely loved these little stories! luna is absolutely fantastic nothing is better than that. hope more will come |

That last line killed me.  It's so Luna and So funny. I'm a bad reviewer and didn't leave a review when I finished Restoring Hope about a half hour ago, but I found it quite enjoyable as well. I love your Hope and all four of her parents. I'm sure her future won't be all sunshine and roses, but it's lovely. Harry and Hermione's limited existence would be frustrating but also interesting for them. I loved the fluffy bit about the page turning so Hermione could read her own journals. |

Ooh, I like the portrait idea. Good job on this story! |

I don't know if I ever told you this, but I showed this story to my (female) betareader, excessivelyperky, and she LOVED it. Not being female, nor having had sisters or a wife or daughters, it's a little alien to me...but it does sound like Luna. |

Idon't know if I told you this, but I showed this chapter to excessivelyperky, my beta-reader for my own stories. She absolutely adored it; being female and having a daughter (I'm male myself and never had sisters) she could identify with both sides of the conversation easily. |

This is a great story and it just keeps pulling me in. Exceptional story telling. Can't wait to see what happens next chapter. |

Para, dude, PLEASE! Come on, I expected ACTION... er... not of that sort at any rate. I'd not post any further comments seeing that 98% of ya'll are females and beefing here would be suicidal! |
Author Feedback: Well, it's just that the situation in this scene is one all my (adult) female readers can relate to -- since they all went through it, in one form or another. But I'll see what I can do to feed your appetite for *action!!!*
Thanks again for reviewing.  |

Heh, good one! I liked the little bit of jealousy that Luna still has for Hope's biological mother. Also liked 'gosling', for some reason. These little odd terms of affection that you have going with Luna (and Ron's "good love") are very nice. |
Author Feedback: Thanks. Not a lot of action in this snippet -- well, it *is* a snippet, no more -- but you picked up on Luna's jealousy, just as I wrote it. (And you've noticed, I trust, that Luna never uses the same endearment for Hope twice in a row.)
With a heaping helping of luck, I may have something more substantial fairly soon. Thanks again, brad. -- Bruce |

LOL! The last line was perfect Luna, although I'm surprised that's the first time Luna's managed to embarrass Hope.
The Unicorn |
Author Feedback: Hope's hard to embarrass: she's been so good at hiding her emotions. Of course, now that the hormones are kicking in, Luna may find the task easier.
Thanks for dropping me a line, Unicorn. Take care... |

Oh dear God in heaven, thank you for providing inspiration to JKR for the creation of Luna Lovegood, so that many a fanfiction writer can take her insanity and put it to hilarious use. Although, if she ever breeds, and it is with Ron, I also ask you to help us in our time of crisis ^_^
Thank you once again for making my day ^_^ I think I'll be giggling for the rest of the morning. |
Author Feedback: You're very welcome -- and thank you for reviewing my cookie! Although, please note that in my story, at least, Ron and Luna *are* breeding -- see the last chapters of Restoring Hope. I will try to make the child a worthy scion of its parents!  |

Glad Hope shared my initial reaction of, "God, this sucks!" And loved the last line... what do you want to train them to do? Hilarious!
Always love hearing from you! |
Author Feedback: Yeh, I can't see how *any* loving-mother-to-daughter talk can make menstruation sound appealing! And I liked the last line, too. (Luna being a witch, it's distinctly possible she *could* train them to do something. Scary thought, that.)
Thanks for dropping me a line, lorien. Talk to you soon. |
| |
|
bless, i love that last line! looking forward to reading more about hope and the others soon |
Author Feedback: Thanks, I liked the line too! It just seems such an odd name, "training bra". (As opposed to teen girls' bras. Or, as teen boys used to call them, "over-the-shoulder boulder holders."  ) |

Oh that is cute really enjoying this so far. Even if it is just glimpses. I'm sure that Harry wants to watch out for Hedwig and Hope but what did happen to Crookshanks. Knowing that cat his should be around somewhere |
Author Feedback: Now that's an excellent question. I wonder what *did* happen to Crookshanks? I get the feeling that he wasn't staying at Grimmauld Place with the Trio, their last year together... wouldn't have stayed with the Grangers... hmmm. I must think about this. Maybe, just maybe, I can work it in somewhere.
If I do, I'll credit you. Thank you so much! |

OMGLMAO!!!!
I have a ten year old who recently saw "the movie" at school, and my husband is still shaking his head at my frantic buy-too-many-books-for-research-and-backup response. Now, of course, I have to read them with her...wish I had Luna coping skills.. Hee, what do you want to train them to do?
***giggles helplessly**
Thank you for this!!
Tia, Mel |
Author Feedback: Do they really start teaching girls this stuff as early as ten? Wow, poor Hope is, for once, waaaay behind her classmates.
Luna's coping skills are legendary. I'm sure you'll do fine.
Thank you so much for the kind words! |
| |

OMG!
"What exactly do you want to train them to do?"
Absolutely perfect!
I never really thought about it, but the phrase training bra does seem to be quite stupid.
Lovely! |
Author Feedback: Thank you! I assure that, as a mere male, I never quite saw the purpose of them. (I pictured training bras with little wheels on the sides...) Anyway, this was my attempt to get into the female mindset. Glad you liked it! |
