I'm sorry, did you say Rigel LIQUIFIED Quarrel's TURBAN? This just made my day.

"At least Rigel could write home to Sirius that she was almost singlehandedly responsible for all of the pranks in the school," says Rigel, after almost dying of DRINKING ACID, being HEXED, and BREAKING HER WRIST.

Rookwood and Rosier are such an iconic duo

"Probably things would settle down very soon." Ummmm don't get your hopes up xD

142 staircases in one castle... that's crazy cool but also must be crazy tiring to navigate.

I can't believe how much this story progresses, it's absolutely astonishing and I'm so excited to be reading this again! (also, before I made an account on here and found this story a few months ago I wrote suuuuupppeeerrrr long reviews with all of my theories and things I loved in the chapters which was probably overwhelming and for that I am sorry!) Anywho, thank you for sharing with us this masterpiece, Violet Matter! I am having fun re-reading this series every few months and reading your comic on WEBTOONS, "Forever After." Congratulations on it becoming an original! You deserve it! :D

So, the previous two times I read through this series I did not understand how or why the emotion-viewing thing happened between Rigel and Professor Snape but now I think I get it. It was Rigel's magic that latched onto Rigel's desire for Snape to know how she felt and then turned that desire into a real manifestation - like how Rigel wanted to poke Draco with a pointy thing and then - without saying the incantation - was able to procure a needle from a matchstick.

I don't know if I ever said this in one of my reviews but Rigel's magic is wicked. It's so BRILLIANT, I mean, w o w .

Anywho, have a lovely day 3

Everytime I read this I get SO hyped, it's just so good. The best series I have ever read.

"Sooner or later he'll show his hand, and I'll be there." HAH. You have NO IDEA

to like a book this much. I just- I love it so much. I've convinced my brother to read it ow too, to share this world with more people. It's a good world to be in, with Violet Matter's work :D

I'm not sure if this is common knowledge but I just found out the exciting news that lovely author Violet Matter (aka murkybluematter) is currently publishing an original comic called "Forever After" on WEBTOONS. It's really good! Y'all could go read it and support them while we patiently await book 5: The Manic Masquerade :D

This chapter though another section of a great story, had rather a lot of Americanisms in it for a story that is based in the UK, so is off putting like a bump in the road every time one comes up, to name a few

Laundry bin Washing basket
Faucet Tap
Allowance Pocket money
Lost and found bin lost property box/tub
Bathroom stall Toilet cubical
Check out desk reference desk or librarians desk
Cookies biscuits (though if they were the subtype of biscuit that are called cookies here in the UK, then that may be OK, however not all biscuits are cookies)

You guys! an eleven year old British child in the early 1990s wouldn’t address the house elves or their friends that way, I read this in Michael J Fox’s voice from back to the future when he play Marty McFly

Another great chapter, however a few terms stuck out further than Rigel’s wrist as not being in keeping with UK English, terms such as

‘semester’ instead of ‘term’
‘bangs’ instead of ‘fringe’

And colour without the ‘u’ (though that one isn’t too bad)

It sort of knocks you out of the fantasy world for a moment when they pop up

Seriously loving this chapter the best so far, seeing Rigel find her place in things and finding a mentor and a kindred spirit in her love of potion is making for a wonderful story

And yes, VERY glad there is no romance blossoming from this as that would be weird, even if he did find out that she was really in fact Lily’s daughter and not Black’s son
