This is good. I just wish you hadn't put in the sentence, "Now, being so very old, I still remember what happened next." Your characterization was strong enough that, reading just the first few lines, I was like, "Oh, wow, she made her old!" It just screamed that tone at me, Luna looking back. So great job on that, and the perspective in general.
Just watch your grammar and you'll be fine (apart should be two separate words, but spellcheck never bothers to notice). Keep writing!
It's all in the stories, and the way we tell them. (Regulus gen, with mild AU.)
When a new student transfers to Hogwarts, a million secrets are hidden within the walls. So why has the castle suddenly come under threat? AND why does a certain blonde keep catching Draco Malfoy's eyes off-guard?
Interesting story. I like your character, but I hate the situation you've put her in (the most believable character can become a Mary-Sue if you let her sit at the Head table and choose where she's Sorted). Draco flitted in and out of being OOC, but you just barely pulled him off.
In other words, just watch keeping your characterization thorough. Good writing, though, and I'll keep reading.
It's a shame you've stuck your character in this plot - she's really likeable, and if you'd done things differently with her she could be a really good centerpiece to a story.
Unfortunately, the other characters suffer because you force Dylan in situations where she really doesn't belong. Harry has had the same friends for six years, he wouldn't just open up to people like that so quickly.
Your writing style is good, I just am not a fan of the direction of the story. Keep writing, though, you're good at it.
All he wants is somebody to care...
The Recommended Story for April 2003, a repeat Top 5 Selection, & the #1 most read story on HPFF.com 2004-06. Novel length. Harry/OC (meet the Elemental!) R/H. Lots of heartbreak, joy and the infinite sadness. Starts midway through 6th yr and ends when the characters are 20. Think you know Draco? Think again.
Genres: Romance, Angst, AU
Novel is complete, sequel is half finished as of 10/10/06
Interesting story, but your main character is quite the Mary Sue. Be careful to keep your characters realistic so that your story stays believable!
Keep writing.
One last desperate letter tells the story of how humility can find even the most corrupt of souls when death is the only way out. Things always look different in the end, but it goes to show that it's never too late to redeem yourself, to show compassion without prejudice, and to be merciful.
A one-shot in which a young Arabella Figg learns that you can find answers in most unlikely places.
A good little story, written so simply that it feels real. Poor Arabella... I think this is the first story I've seen examining this sort of situation, it's really sad and is making me think. Now I want to go write, take the idea of squibs and run with it... hmm, I just might.
Very nice oneshot, I really enjoyed reading it.
