Interesting story. Thanks for writing!
BBlackbox chapter 1 . 6/23
Awesome! That's the most fantastic story I've ever seen about Godric and Salazar! You've really done a good job on this piece cuz you've shown us the change inside their mind very detailed and touching.
Also as a writer, I've been thinking stuff like this for a so long time-how can Godric and Salazar build their trust and friendship at the beginning and you just made it! You just made my dream come true!
Ahh, it's so mind-blowing to read this story that I screamed all the time during my reading this. What's more, for me, that's something more than fan fiction. To me, I always feel it a big barrier to building trust and establishing friendships in my life. And what you have represented makes me moved and reminds me of the good old days when I have a friend... (For me, that's a sad story but you got me to see the bright side of this memory)
Besides, I am wondering if you would like to have this amazing story be translated into Chinese and reposted (Chinese version) to a Chinese website which kind of like Tumblr? I just can't wait to share this story with fans in China. And sure I will try my best to translate it well. Could you give me the chance?

Love this! I hope inspiration strikes for a sequel one day.

I am officially addicted to your stories!
This was absolutely amazing, and I love it. Being a proud Slytherin myself, I've always thought that Salazar can't be all that bad (history is written by the visitors, after all, so the others would naturally and unfairly put Salazar in a bad light). Also, you portray the Founders (in this and other works) brilliantly, and their voices are unique and spot on. You are definitely going down as one of the Most Brilliant Harry Potter Fanfictionist's Ever! Great job and please write more brilliant stories like this! :)

I really enjoy your stories about the Founders.

Oh my Godric (I didn't realise how ironic that choice of word is until after I wrote it XP) , I had almost forgotten how amazing your writing is, what with my loong excursion to Rise of the Guardians fanfiction. But now that I'm back I remember just how wonderful your stories are.
The Dark One Rising chapter 1 . 1/6/2015
I've been wondering if this particular backstory would show up. I think I liked Godric and Salazar better when the two were traveling alone. There is just a bond there that is irreplaceable. The early days are awesome, to watch the bond grow and strengthen.

This was so sweet

I love your fanfiction! (sorry, I'm Franch and my English is not perfect! ) I like Godric in protective older brother! But I did not understand the last line, since the chance offered and the chance accepted it is the same thing, not?

This is one of my absolute favourite fanfics,right up with strange visitors. :)

Oh, perfect!
Brilliant.
Montley chapter 1 . 9/28/2013
I adored and loved this story. It was completely unique and you just have this perfect was with the Founder's that I simply adore. I loved especially what you did with Salazar, and making him appear so young was really interesting and intriguing (I also found myself picturing him looking like Loki...), and it was really nice seeing him as younger than Godric (since I've always thought the opposite), and just a great beginning to their friendship. Your characterizations were fantastic, and Salazar being a cripple was very interesting but I could definitely imagine it.
I loved the whole theme of chances and choices that ended up defining their lives and ultimately forming the school (also loved the mention of Rowena).
["Better than that than you go out learning other skills,"]- The only mistake I really saw was this line where it's only a typo, so you should omit the excess word.
Really, this was just fantastic work, in my opinion, the best founders story I've read (you just write them so damn well!), since it was just so unique and I personally adore stories like this.
just Wonderful! Fantastic!
Molto Bene!

That was great! I love stories about Godric and Salazar. I feel like they are both very in-character here–but I must say, crippled!Salazar was not something I read before :P I like it, though.
The idea of this story was so great, Godric being the master of Salazar and all. I actually picture Salazar as the older one in my head, but that's just me. I really like your take on them.
I also like how you started and ended talking about choices and chances. I particularly like this line: [On this occasion, certain choices changed the course of history forever.]
I like how you described how magic was taught, by Masters. I was wondering, though–who was Rowena? Girlfriend? Friend?
I honestly do not know which one of your fics I like the most.

Okay, I really, really, really, really, loved that. I don't often read Founders Era stories, but oh god, that was so interesting. I loved it...

First of all, I think you did a good job establishing the setting - and the first few paragraphs pulled me in right away. I continued to read without looking over to the right of my screen to see a little grey bar telling me when it would end, which is more than what I could say for almost every other story I read. :P

Godric and Salazar's age differences were a nice detail, and I really enjoyed your characterizations of them - they very well reflected what their houses would in the future. I especially loved how you wrote Salazar. He almost reminded me of myself in a way.

I'm going to look for more of your Founders stories... yayyayyay.

Overall, well done.
NRATQH chapter 1 . 9/22/2013
It's there is ANYTHING that I want it is you writing a whole prequel to the harry potter series on The four founders (and I dont mean fanfics. I mean like really get published because I swear you're good enough to get publish and at least earn as much as Rick Riordan did with his percyjackson books if you did write and publish this story officially) and if I dont get that I at least want you to be the screen write for the four founders movie (which would probably be EPIC if they get good enough actors)

Theres just something so amazing about your story or your take on their characters. you understand them so well I literally gave up trying to write a story of the four founders cause you've depicted them exactly the way I would. I've read some good fics. but at least most of them actually had their characters personality to guide their story but you wrote these guys from scratch and I find that so amazing and mesmerizing and AWESOME! (I really am finding it hard to find a word good enough to describe what I think of your stories)

I just wish you could write a bit more on godric and helga. from the way you've written godric so far in your fics there's something of a mystery about why he is the way he is. I just really want to know what your idea of his childhood was. and how he became such a skilled duelist. I could go on all day talking about how awesome you are and I cant believe you've only gotten 17 reviews! You are the reason why fanfiction should have a program where we can promote awesome stories that arent getting the attention they deserve. )
