Summary: He wasnt mentioned much, not that it bothered him, he was quite happy sitting in the shadows..watching and waiting. Noone ever worries about him, he's not perceived as a threat-and that suits his purposes just fine. In response to Lyn Midnights challenge fic of a nameless person...can you guess who im writing about?


This is my oneshot that i wrote, i just wanted to know what you guys thought about it.

 

I enjoyed reading but was immensely curious who the watcher was.

I like your style of writing. Enough description to picture the enviroment, and a nice dark atmosphere. It would be interesting to see a vampire Harry written in this style.

I hope you write more because it's an interesting start.

Hmmmm....well, it's not bad. But it isn't great either.

It's a 500 word oneshot from the POV of an unnamed protagonist who plans on becoming the next Dark Lord. It's one of Harry's classmates, and the only interesting thing here is trying to guess the identity of the speaker from the meager contextual clues.

I guess it would have to be some quiet Slytherin like Nott or Zabini, but there's no definitive way to tell.

3/5 - because there's not quite enough substance here to make it required reading

 

Uh Mike, up top it says:

Chapters: 1
Characters: Blaise (M)
Genre(s): General, Horror/Dark, Angst
Era: Hogwarts

So I assume it's about Blaise. I would rate this VERY short story a 2.5/3 out of 5. It's not library worthy, that much is for sure. Not really sure if it's recycle bin worthy either.

However like Mike said, it's not bad but it's not great. It's average, so it gets an average rating.

 

The style is good, but the story is nothing more than a monologue from a villain wannabe. It's too short for my taste, and I saw nothing that indicated his ability to follow through on his convictions.

2/5
