This story is seriously jokes. Hands out one of the best fan fictions of lily and james. Awesome characterization, it is exactly as it's summary suggests- realistic and original. I simply loved the over all theme of the story, the backward times it is set in, the wonderful wizarding world you created. . . and James, OH MY GOD. His character was absolutely wonderful, he was smart,loyal and extremely sincere. His fights with lily were epically described, the build up in their magical relation was so smartly you write more fanfics:)

Hey Drowning Goldfish,

First of all, I appreciate your screen-name, very witty :) I really like the story thus far, I'm super intrigued by the relationship between James and Lily because in most of the other FanFictions they absolutely hate each other. Its nice to not have to read 12 chapters about them seething with anger for one another. Thirdly, the proper grammar is so refreshing! I am so bloody tired of reading stories with grammar that looks as if it were edited by a second grader. I don't know about you, but that irks me like nothing else after the very intensive English class I took this past year of school. Thank you so much for the story and I am excited to read the rest of it. I hope you are doing well and enjoying your writing; I know I certainly do.

Warmly,
Gwyneth

First of all, I really enjoyed this story. You gave a portrayal of Lily that I found very interesting. Also, your portrayal of James' parents was one I'd never read before, so that was fascinating. It seems quite likely that James' parents would be so caught up in their work. The whole thing was as good as the summary promised, and I wish you would continue it.

Second of all, I don't know whether or not you care about flame reviews, but I know that they're never pleasant when I get them, so I just wanted to say that the reason I read your story was because of what the summary promised. I didn't find it boastful. I was just looking for a good LJ story, and yours promised that, so I read it. And it didn't disappoint. :)

I must say, this was a unique story. The writing was terrific, as your summary had promised. Lily and James really show their strengths and weaknesses in a unique, sadistic way. Keep on writing!

They kissed!

AWWWW, JUST KISS ALREADY!

Love it! And the summary!

Your story is so interesting and well written!

I love the long chapters! Please keep them and keep writing!M

Oh I loved this so much. I got so choked up during some parts when I would remember how young they died.

Did they have sex?

I just finished reading through this entire story, and oh my god, I loved it so much! I can tell that you really put a lot of thought into it, and I was both elated and heartbroken reading your descriptions and developments of all of the characters. Absolutely incredible. Thank you for writing this! :D

i'm sorry

lily was their 'fearless leader'?

wtf?

the story is fine, but the summary kind of sucks. there is absolutely nothing about what the story is about, other than the very, very, basics, and mostly it's just extoling your virtues, which no one knows that you have yet, since they haven't read the story, and might not because of the summary.

count this as a flamer if you want

the summary really, really, sucks.
