addendum to part 1, because i'm like that.

This is, unfortunately, what writing off the cuff sometimes gets you. I kept going back and forth on whether there needed to be some more scenes between Connor heading away from his "landing sight" and the scene cutting right into middle of his going towards Potions class with Hermione, and my brain said, no, but my hands said, yes. Or something ( Read more... )

man! I can not tell you how pleased I am with this! Overcome. OVERCOME!

Holtz's fairytales make me want to *hurt* him and you know that takes some doing. And poor Connor's bewilderment and hagrid is just *awesome* and I am kind of shipping Seamus and Connor/Harry now and that's just freaking me out a little, in a good way.

But the absolute best part was your getting into Connor's head as he has to cope with losing the powers that he has - it was perfect - his surprise at not being able to do what he could, his mingled fear/resentment and pretense of pleasure - perfect.

This is the best project/crackfic ever *waits and waits and wriggles with excitement*

Aw, but for Holtz, those fairytales would been more Grimm, and less Disney, yeah? I don't think he would have known any other versions of them. Although he could certainly have, um, *not* told them to Connor, but maybe he meant them as a comfort. Heh ( ... )

*laaaaaaaa*!!!
Oh, fun. I luff it, what can i say?
Seeing something familiar through some else's eyes is *always* good. And this is great.
Poor Coonor! Of course he doesn't want his powers.
*rolls eyes*

Seamus/Harry! OMG!
*bounce*

Oh, awesome! I was worried that that was getting to be an old trick, but I need to do it for a few more scenes, at least until the end of the day, I think, so I'm so relieved that it's not getting boring.

Poor Coonor! Of course he doesn't want his powers.

Heeeeeeeeee. I know, right? Oh, Connor. You lie to yourself as well as you do to others. That is your gift, my boy.

Seamus/Harry! OMG!

Hahahahahaha, me, too! I'm kind of sitting here going, "No, wait. This is a Connor/Snape fic. Right. Okay. Must remember that. No, Seamus! BACK SATAN."

Oh, no. When a xover is done *right* - it can never get old. And trust me, this is *right*. Right down to the bone.

Heeeeeeeee!!
*cuddles Seamus*
Yis, resist! Must see Connor up close and personal with Snape. The banter!
:)

By god, if my next fic is a Seamus/Harry, I will only have myself to blame. Or, oh! Maybe I'll blame you. *G*

Thanks again for your wonderful feedback. Forward!

Oh man, this is still so great! Connor, prepared to kill people whenever called upon to do so. Hating magic. Hating kids everywhere, and freaked out and hostile, and Seamus, and him realizing he's Harry! Awesome awesome. I can't wait for more!

Pretty much, Connor in a bad mood = a good time!

Man, he does hate magic. And kids. Nevermind that he's one himself. Point it out and he'd bite off your hand.

I was really tempted to have Connor think, "Wow, I'm really short," when he looks in the mirror. Hahahahahahaha.

Thanks so much for your feedback, lovely!

I am still enjoying this a lot. I am a crossover addict, and I've developed quite the soft spot for Connor, so I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes. Thanks again for sharing this.

Thank you for reading! I have never tried my hand at a crossover before, so it's certainly an interesting ride. I'm so thrilled to know that it's working for you.

I've developed quite the soft spot for Connor.

Oh, man, yes. Haven't we all.

!!!! YOU CAN WRITE HAGRID?! You've been holding out! Haha! Also *HE WISHES GUNN WERE THERE*. omg.

And looooove:

So what if his powers are gone. He never wanted them in the first place.

And HEEE, naughty Seamus. Also I'd wondered about the accent thing, so yay!
