    Not that I want to piss anyone off, but why is this still in the For Review section? Is it that no-one can decide where to put it?

    Anyway, Merry Christmas all.

    I just read through all of it. It left me feeling depressed. Why? Because this story would've been the peak of awesome, if it weren't for the reviews...

    Just read:

    I used to have some faith for the future of mankind. This review killed it.

    I don't know about the look on TIO's face, but the look on mine must've been hilarious.

    I started to think something weird was going on when 'relas' posted to say he had uploaded his second chapter. Then after seeing the reviews for the third, I read it quickly before going to my mock exam. And I had one of those precious, not-so-rare, deep WTF moments...

    Congrats to MS for his actor skills. Relas' post was perfectly retarded in every aspect of it.

    I can't believe I gave constructive criticism to a parody... *re-reads her posts and laughs at the utter stupidity of it all*

    ...

    ...Who am I kidding? I'd give concrit to a crocodile trying to type with its hind legs.

    You know the "H/G troll" is actually Sree, a mod, right?

    I'm just going to paste the end of the chapter A/N, since it doesn't seem like people are reading it:

    Holy fucking shit. You got me, you really did.

    6/5-bonus for the masterful deception.

    That's when my remarkable ability to misunderstand typical English ff words and therefore misuse them comes into the picture...


    Didn't you know that already?

    So much f***ing torture!

    This is what all writers under the mental age of 14 (aka, about 97% of the HP fanfic writers out there right now) should strive for. You actually pulled off a torture scene that worked: no obscure curses, no cliche "Crucio!" for ten minutes, and the motive... the motive for snapping actually made it worth the painful introduction; not to mention that some idiots who actually like that brain numbing horse shit got burned.

    Great twist! Maybe you can have an extended torture scene up later for the next person who moves on him (a draco fic as a "sequel", maybe?), or have a second part where Hermione snaps and do something similar to Snape (ugh, the HGSS out there is revolting...*throws up over keyboard*)?

    Please, continue ripping fangirls fantasies to shreds!

    5/5 for awesomeness and Ginny!Torture

    Judging by your previous posts in this thread I would say no, you didn't know it was all a trap.

    Anyways, nice job on the torture scene, and nice job on the whole facade.

    It was one of those feelings that i had later on. Besides, just because i didn't post it doesn't mean i was wrong.

    I don't think I ever accused you of being wrong, just of not knowing wtf was going on.

    Judging from your posts, content/spelling, I sincerely doubt you have the mental capacaties to see through a facade that fooled so many other intelligent people.

    I too was completely bamboozled, fooled, and decieved. Bravo.

    5/5 moreso for the situation than the actual story which is splendidly horrible.

    I find the "squee" in the A/N at the end of chapter one particularly funny now that I have the full story.

    I quote your reviewer pheobesapphira for my final note:

    (p.s.: could there be a more fan-girly pseudonym than "pheobesapphira"?)

    BULLSHIT. You knew nothing! NOTHING! :)

    I don't know what the fuck you mean by this. First you insult my intelligence by saying it didn't take any real thought...then you say it was very entertaining. First off, let me tell you something: this was extremely hard and painful to write. You try writing a cliched kissing scene with Ginny fucking Weasley. :x

    Anyways, make up your mind. Is it good or not, mufucker?

    Eh, hopefully it isn't. It's not going to be updated, so not that many new people should be reading it. And if it was going to get deleted, it would have been by now. If it does get deleted, I'll post it on DLP. I'll also post it on Patronus Charm once Raven gets off of his lazy ass and finishes it up. :p

    And...I'm not sure if you read the last chapter. Never assume. :whipped:

    Haha, thank ye. I tried not to go for magical torture, as it's not as gory as normal torture is. The only magical thing I wanted to put in was the Room of Requirement, just because it was so damn useful.

    I was thinking of doing a sequel, maybe a H/Hr or a H/D...but then everyone on this site will already be suspicious. I might just do it for the enjoyment of seeing the slashers and others get owned again.

    Again, BULLSHIT!


    Thank you for all your kind reviews. :D
