ZeldaQueen: Hello thar folks! Still chiseling away at Child of Grace, but then I found this POS and just had to jump in on it. I have no idea what the suethor was going for with it, but she seems to be serious so away we go!
Looking forward to this.salemsageOctober 13 2010, 01:06:34 UTC
I haven't ever heard of this story, but I'm intrigued by it purely because there are, already, so many things in this chapter that stick out like a sore thumb.
-James and Lilly's "Astral Will" or whatever was last updated on the 31st of October? ...So, the day of their deaths? I was under the impression that Voldemort's attack came suddenly and they had no idea he was coming, otherwise they would have left if they knew their protection had failed. Because it was updated on that day, it gives the impression that they knew they were going to die at that point, which doesn't make sense if you're going to hide and have a charm concealing your location. That, or it's a coincidence, but it just doesn't sit right with me.
-Weasley Bashing a plenty then? For me that tends to be a sign of a bad fanfiction. The Weasleys always have it so tough. :(
Really looking forward to the rest of the sporking though. :D

The Weasley bashing is weird. The suethor seems to be going for it, but the characters show about as much emotion as dishrags. Still, Ginny doesn't come across too well and the suethor has admitted that one of her favorite pairings is Harry/OC.
AHAHAHA oh lord. This... is almost too easy to mock; I'm convinced that this is the work of a troll.
... Or the work of somebody whose first language is not English, and is just starting to learn the ropes. THAT would make me uncomfortable as English isn't my first language either, and I pretty much started out rough too (although not this bad, I have to admit).
But really, looking at some of the sentence construction... yeah, I'm starting to lean toward the latter.
I have no idea. The author seems serious enough and it looks consistent with the quality of her profile. In any case, to quote Carol Brunette, I saw it in the window and just had to have it. XD
Oh, just you wait until later. ^^ That's when we meet our mary sue, Isabelle Monearu-Black.
When I started into this, I almost thought that this was something I had found off Pottersues. Except, it occured in Harry Potter's first year, and introduced a seer character who was mondo special. It also involved Harry getting a full blown history about the magic world, instead of slowly learning about it. And... special wands linked to his parsle tounge wand. So, my question is, what is with these making Harry out to be mondo special, when he is special enough as it is, hitting with one almost instantly, in a dull, boring list...
Um.... are they Russian now? This sounds like the typical bad English from Russian people that some shows have. Because I am totally for random Russianization.
My God... this is boring as HELL. (Except for that 'severed' part - that was hysterical.) Come on, it's Harry freaking Potter! Let us see some magic! Fights! Explosions! Or at least some sex scenes. Even My Immortal was better than this. You are a true hero to read this. I hope you will recover soon.
