Rod chapter 1 . 9/3/2024
Rereading after 11 years. It's still the best SI for me. I've been looking for fanfic with the same premise, there are potential ones but not as satisfying as this. Is there anyone who knows if someone pick this as inspo or rewrite or adopted it? I really want to read a Malfoy centric fic that's about the Malfoy sibling and has good pureblood world building and not be a dog for the "good side"

Estaba leyendo de lo más feliz, hasta que me percaté que esto lleva abandonado más de diez años

And while we're on the subject, why did it become your responsibility to single handedly defeat Voldemort and create an army of your own? You're an actual person thrown into a fictional world, and that's your first thought?
So if you end up being born in Germany during the 30s, your first thought as a child would be, I'm going to stop Hitler ans defeat him all by myself. It's my responsibility.
How do you even go about doing that? It's ridiculous. You're just one person. It took millions working together with no actual just one person being in charge or the 'the leader'.
It took hundreds and maybe thousands to defeat Voldemort the first and second time, with everyone working together to do so.
Dumbledore was an actual genius of a wizard and had 150 years old or something of experience to pull the plans he did, Hermione was a genius and a child and she struggled way more than your character. You might say she didn't have the resources that your character had, but neither would anyone else in real life.

Why do stories like this always over-do it, I just don't understand it.
You had something so beautiful with so much potential. The writing is simply amazing, but then you go and just do so much and turn your character into a Mary Sue, and oh, she really is one, no matter how much the story tries to deny it (which isn't how it works, you know).
Do you think that a child of 8 or 9 years old would be regarded in the same way as it is in your story?
If you're in your 30s, do you think you would commission a child, no matter how smart they are, to do your bidding?
Do you see, I don't know, NASA employing those 10 year old geniuses we often heat about in the news?
It's just ridiculous, I'm sorry. Even nobles in the middle ages do not talk/act they way your characters do with actual child royalties.
And, on that point, why is your character suddenly a genius? You refereed to their past life as them being a student, and just that.
Now they suddenly turn into a genius who can do everything? It's a bit odd.
Why would a child with an older person's conscious be able to threaten characters who were established to be extremely intelligent and calculated with at least 3 decades worth of experience over you in this life just because she read a few books and took some classes.
And your character is still a child, you know. Her mind and body still has actual physical limitations. I know you want to establish a genius and then show how she got there, but this isn't the way to do it. You don't just throw an abnormal amount of learning and training at her and expect it to just work itself through.
Actual adult geniuses would struggle to learn half the things she's learning, and you could just give her a few weaknesses, you know. Make her relatable instead of someone who knows everything and gets to win every confrontation thrown at her. It gets a bit tiring after a while.
And you venture too much into building new worlds and characters and themes and laws that you stretch your plot really thin and it juat comes out a bit chaotic.
I understand that teens in this site like these types of story, it's clear from the 1000 reviews that just says great and amazing without actually reviewing the story, but this could've been much better.
Again, I really do love the overall writing and sometimes even the dialog is great, though a bit artificial and angsty at times, but you had the potential to do something amazing with this and it just ended up as another overcomplicated Mary Sue SI by a writer who couldn't decided what his character's role is, so they just ended up making them do everything and make the world revolve around them.
Word of advice, whem writing about geniuses, you might as well then do a bit of research about GENIUSES and study how they come to be.
Thanks.

Came back to reread. This has been my comfort fanfiction. Made me curious about the blacks and the malfoys. It's been 10 years and you still have readers, a testament to the wonderful story you've created

"He's a pussy"
That phrase probably sums up the MC the best.
Hariana Halone chapter 6 . 3/31/2023
I'm so sad that this story is abandoned, if anyone knows of a similar one, I would really like to have the link, The MC is awesome!I like the way she is. She's not the stupidly heroic type wanting to kill Voldy for the sake of complete strangers, no she wants to save herself . She knows that her family is not the best, as long as they are correct, she supports them lol. She'll make a wonderful Ravenclaw, a Slytherin these talents, her way of being will be wasted. She said it herself, she doesn't like people in Slytherin, she will have to socialize, In Gryffindor she will not have my peace of mind and Hufflepuff too, Ravenclaw is perfect. She could drag the two blacks behind her, the Carrows could be hufflepuff with their attitude. It's a shame that the story is incomplete.

Una storia interessantissima. Peccato che non ci siamo più capitoli. Proprio quando iniziava il più bello. Infatti ero curiosissima di vedere l’approccio con Harry come sarebbe stato. Spero che continuerai a scrivere questa meravigliosa storia.
