 liebedance 2009-08-16 . chapter 1Ravenclaw love. I really like it. It took me a bit to get used to your version of Terry and Michael, but I like them. Anthony is good too. Basically, yay Ravenclaw boys. But I really did like the way this was written. Descriptive but not excessively so. Most of the time you showed instead of told... Though I think there could've been more showing. Still, really good.
Favourite lines:
Calling Gryffindor "the House of the Impulsively Stupid"
""I've tried reasoning that with my brain for the last hours, Terry, and I've reached the unpleasant conclusion that the Gryffindors might be right and sometimes reason can't overpower emotion.""
""You have your OWLs face""
The whole interchange about how they aren't stupidly brave, but rather rationally brave and that stupid things are sometimes logical unless you're Gryffindor. |
 Rita Arabella Black 2009-05-24 . chapter 1This story was recommended by someone and I'm very glad. It is a wonderful story. Thank you for sharing it. |
 SWChica2005 2009-05-24 . chapter 1I was referred to your fic by WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot, and might I say that I am very glad that I chose to read it. Your fic was wonderful! I loved how you showed the Ravenclaw Trio as being as brave as Gryffindors, but with the cool logic and resilience of Ravenclaws. Excellent job! |
 riskinglife 2009-05-24 . chapter 1fantastic. |
 Princess Gillybean 2009-05-24 . chapter 1Amazing. I loved your take on the Ravenclaws, especially their reasoning :) Micheal was awesome. |
 worldsapart 2009-05-10 . chapter 1Read this first over on livejournal, but I had to comment here as well. I loved this story and everything about it, even though friendship fics aren't always my thing. The depth of the emotion was beautiful. You can really feel what the characters are going through. Everyone should read this fic! |
 bookwormofmassiveproportions 2009-04-28 . chapter 1Excellent fic. I always thought that people did not give the other houses enough credit, so I really thought this was wonderful!! Bravo. |
 girlfan1979 2009-04-13 . chapter 1Really well done. |
 Cuban Sombrero Gal 2009-02-26 . chapter 1Wow, I absolutely adore this.
Your characterisations are absolutely perfect - you've taken every little piece of canon and extrapolated it so well, and I love your interpretation of these boys. I think my favourite thing, though, is the parallels between houses, but also the similarities. That is one thing I wish Jo had stressed more in her books, and you've done it so well. Definitely favouriting. |
 Bad Mum 2009-02-25 . chapter 1I love this. I love the friendsship between Michael, Terry and Anthony, and how all the students look out for each other, especially the younger ones. I loved the inter-House rivalry in spite of the horrble conditions they were living under - "House of the Impulsively Stupid" is wonderful! And the Ravenclaws' rationale for being brave was just brilliant.
Great story. |
 spinningleaves 2008-10-12 . chapter 1Aww wow I love this showcase of the Ravenclaw's strength. Great great great! |
 Violin Ghost 2008-10-12 . chapter 1I loved this! It was a horrifying glimpse into the Hogwarts the left-behind students came to know, and it was written realistically. I loved your little turns of phrase - House of the Impulsively Stupid (I laughed at that one), etc. But Gryffindor isn't the only House with brave students.
A well-executed story - thank you for sharing it! |
 Gin's Comettail 2008-10-09 . chapter 1You do Ravenclaws so well! That was a great story. Well written, great characterization. I was tearing up... |
 Fawne 2008-09-29 . chapter 1An impressively handled story with fitting characterization. |
 hondagirl 2008-09-25 . chapter 1Wonderful. You showed all the 7th years perfectly and I love the friendship between the boys. Great job.
