Mycroft-mione chapter 1 . 7/30/2016 That was hilarious! Fred and Geroge are such mayhem-causing drill sergeants. Let's see... I liked: -the rapid fire dialogue -the old fashioned words like "shalt" and "aye" -the military ("where do we get one?") bit -how the whole thing ties into the war on Umbridge in the fifth book It was nicely done. I can totally imagine F&G directing fellow students to aid them in their mischief-making. I laughed out loud during the middle section when the twins distribute the goodies. Great drabble! |
NeonDomino chapter 1 . 7/30/2016 I really enjoyed this story. I loved reading about the twins planning the attacks on Umbridge in waves, it was clear that they had thought it through, rather than them just doing whatever they felt like. I like that they included all the lower years to assist them, and I laughed at the comment: "What's a military?"/"And where do we get one?" I noticed only one mistake [opperation] The story had great flow and was really interesting. I liked reading about the twins putting so much effort into their pranks. :) |
DolbyDigital chapter 1 . 7/27/2016 I really loved this! I liked how seriously Fred and George took this rebellion against Umbridge — because of course they would! — and I loved that they viewed Peeves as their mascot. And I really loved Dean, Seamus and Neville just sitting back and watching everything happen. I thought this was really well written — I think I only saw a couple very minor mistakes — and that everyone was really in character. |
CUtopia chapter 1 . 7/27/2016 Haha, I like how you wrote about Fred and George organising their rebellion, handing out tasks and orders and everyone follows them :D It was my favourite part of Book 5, I think, the prank war against Umbridge, and I think you did well in writing about a hidden part of it :) |
scrumptiousinternetllama chapter 1 . 7/12/2016 I love love loved this! I feel like I haven't seen enough of the Weasley twins in fanfiction recently. I love how you involved Umbridge as the menace because she really is awful and I love seeing how the twins got revenge XD The story had quite a 'goodbye' feeling to it at the end. Which is good of course but it also made me long for the twins to stay! I really enjoyed seeing how you portrayed it as their lasting legacy and the army metaphor XD The pat where they were giving orders was also brilliant, you showed how the twins brought together lots of different people from different houses over a common cause. Brilliant! |
Love the Brightest Star chapter 1 . 7/3/2016 Ah, this story was so much fun! Fred and George are among my favourite characters, so thank you for writing about them. I loved how you described them organising the juniors so methodically. It offered so much enjoyment and yet highlighted the importance of the mission they had undertaken. The twin talk is very well written. And the title is so fitting. I had a smile on my face throughout the story. Wonderful work! |
SnarkyAndProudHufflepuff chapter 1 . 6/19/2016 I loved this! Fred and George are great characters and I love how you wrote them rallying up a bunch of students to bring down the evil toad; this was very well done and very humorous. But I'm a little worried about their line "What's a military? And where do we get one? The twins do not need anything that the military have, they'd be unstoppable then! And I honestly don't think that the military would be able to handle them either lol. Great job with this! XD. |
Guest chapter 1 . 6/14/2016 Pretty good stuff. They have their purpose in life and execute it well. |
dreaming of rocketships chapter 1 . 6/14/2016 That was so good! I love that it was just the beginning for them. This is phase one and their successors are willing to carry on the mischief! The part about the military was funny as well. |
GuidingHand chapter 1 . 6/14/2016 I like this view point. |
A Sirius Crush On Moony chapter 1 . 6/14/2016 This was awesome! I loved the conversation between Fred and George, and then the plan with the first, second and third years. I love how practically every student, teacher and ghost was willing to join in on bringing Umbridge down. She was widely hated by everyone XD My favourite line was ["Not only to us, but to our professors, our Headmaster, and Peeves, our mascot."] - I just loved how they referred to Peeves as their mascot haha. All of this was perfect, and the title really was fitting. Good job in not mentioning the trio :) |
