The similarities between Tom and Harry have always been one of the fascinating parts of their fight. You've captured that, and their differences, beautifully.

Yes, those similarities always stood out for me, and they sent this particular bunny hopping - I'm very glad it works for you!

Oh, what an interesting story! I like the exploration of Riddle's mind, and the connection to Harry is chilling and very compelling. Nice job!

The goings-on in Tom Riddle's mind are an interesting thing, I'm sure, and you've really captured that in a realistic (and slightly creepy) way. I really enjoyed reading this.

Creepy is what I was going for - I'm very glad it works for you! Thank you! :)

Wow!

Miss Joan, if I may call you so, this was delightful! I loved the description of Tom's thoughts and the similarities and differences between him and Harry. The whole subject of mind powers is fascinating and especially how far it can go - I never thought about the possibility of bridging even time (but if space, why not time?).

This was a lovely story, beautifully written. Thank you so much!

An absolutely fascinating story! The similarities between Tom Riddle and Harry are intriguing, as are the differences, and they are marvellously captured here! Tom's train(s) of thought is wonderfully done!

Thank you, dear! *snuggles*
