DarkSorcerer888 chapter 35 . 6/18 You killed this story by destroying what Ginny and Lucius had. They were perfectly happy together and there was no real reason to split them up. It's like one conversation with Molly changed Ginny from Hermione's friend and Lucius' fiancee to a caricature of bitchiness. |
alliaddams chapter 7 . 6/11 I'm going to have to stop here - sorry I read this years ago when my English wasn't too good and I really enjoyed the plot. Anything I didn't get I would just think it was because of the language barrier. However, now re-reading this I can see it's so difficult to follow the plot first and foremost. It's a pity because you're very creative and it shows in what you write, but unfortunately I am unable to see what's happening on half the time. I.e. In the first chapters you describe what is like 20 different scenes that don't really have a connection with one another. No transition there either. You go from introducing the story at Ball, to a romantic escapade in Paris (?), then to Hogwarts and Malfoy Manor very quickly with little setting or background and then to Hogwarts again for some smut. It's all very confusing. It seems quite unrealistic that Snape and Hermione don't see each other for ten (10!) years and it's like they were just apart for a week. Also, it's very difficult to tell the passing of time. I thought Snape and Malfoy became professor at Hogwarts on Jan 1st or 2nd... when it actually was May. If you ever get around to re-writing this of taking the best part of the pot for a new fic with more of a well-written setting and character development I will for sure read it. PS This is only my personal view on them but I could never imagine Hermione as a weakling who gives in to bullying. She never quivered, not even when Lestrange was torturing her, or when Draco insulted her and diminished throughout the first six years of school. She is one of the strongest outspoken personalities, she is smart, confident and doesn't care about what people say she is. She knows who she is and would never let anyone bully her. She punched Malfoy in the face ffs, she stood up to his grown up dad when he insulted her friends and parents. The Hermione in your story is very out of character. Like Snape and Malfoy too, can't imagine them being romantically chivalrous or so warm as they are too Hermione right from the start. |
beccasullivanwrites1 chapter 35 . 2/2 That was one of, if not the best, Triad story I’ve ever read, out of FanFiction or Original works. Thank you for all your hard work, and I look forward to many more of your stories! |
beccasullivanwrites1 chapter 25 . 2/2 What a beautiful ceremony! |
beccasullivanwrites1 chapter 16 . 2/2 I’m grinning like an idiot over the final scene in the Great Hall! |
beccasullivanwrites1 chapter 13 . 2/2 The image of the three of them on the bed just taking care of Lucius is lovely. |
AngelDragon1976 chapter 35 . 7/13/2019 Love this story. Thank you for making it so beautiful. I understand the abuse and trauma that Hermione and even Ginny went thru. Never easy. |
excessivelyperky chapter 35 . 3/23/2019 Ta daaaa! Very enjoyable end indeed, looking forward to the sequel. |
jada951 chapter 29 . 10/15/2018 I thought this story was great. harry not as a hero, unusual. for ron, not so much. ;-) I was wondering if you ever did balance of power? maybe under another title? wondering... mk |
natt123 chapter 35 . 7/27/2018 Beautiful! Loved the story.. congratulations! |
skyeryder01 chapter 35 . 7/21/2018 Loved this! I love these three together! |
ROXN chapter 35 . 7/13/2018 You know I really did like this story, but there was, in my opinion, not that much of a plot. I think it was mostly smut with some background action. I mean in almost every chapter you have smut. And don't get me wrong I love your smut, but you had so much that it kinda took away from the story. But I loved it anyway |
excessivelyperky chapter 33 . 7/7/2018 Dear heaven, it really was Ron in bed with his sister, ewwww! But a hook to the jaw doesn't usually hit the nose. Still, I don't blame Hermione one bit! |
excessivelyperky chapter 32 . 5/14/2018 Brilliant chapter, love this very much. Amazing to see the gents show so much restraint when Hermione goes skinny-dipping; but they both have their reasons. |
excessivelyperky chapter 31 . 5/7/2018 Well...one factor Lucius hasn't mentioned is that Ginny was possessed by the Dark Lord at age eleven. It's possible that part of her was damaged when that happened which was never addressed or healed. Also, Ginny seriously needs to stay away from her Mum if she wants to build a life for herself. It was partly Molly's pressure that Ginny married Harry in the first place, too. I think having time away from everyone is the best thing for Ginny at this time-and good for Hermione, too. |
