Reviews for A Matter of Merit
1000 Points! My ,my Godrick must have worked very hard , to get that many points.
*snicker*
My, for a THOUSAND points, he must've been quite entertaining indeed! O_O
excellent and funny! thanks
Hilarious!!! It reminds me of that HG/SS fic where S gives Gryffindor points when H does something exciting in bed. Most excellent use of house points.

LOL. I think that may have been the inspiration for the piece, although in this scenario, Severus would have been... bluffing ;)Thanks for reading.

Great story! I loved the characters too - will there be more?!
Response from Somigliana (Author of A Matter of Merit)
Thanks so much :)It's not the characters of the Founders so much that are a challenge to write; it's getting the time period authentic. Perhaps.

Very nice, a beautiful piece about a subject that was puzzling me for a long time. Your characterisations of the founders are quite fitting, I think.
Author's Response: Thank you very much--I was always curious about the mechanism behind those point-glasses.
Thank you--it's so tempting to make the Founders the absolute cliche of each house. I tried not to do that.
truely adorable! I like the way you wrote the characters of the founders. Well done.

Thanks so much. I'm very glad that you enjoyed it... I found it quite a challenge to write in that era.

OMG--this was so funny and orignal! I love the implication at the end, the visual imergary is great--I can just see them in the throws of passion yelling out 1000 points! bwhahahah... good job.

Grins. Well the modern day couples often award points for being gooood, or naughty, so I thought it had to have originated somewhere ;)Thanks for reading and reviewing.

nice. i enjoyed your descriptive language in the early part, especially: the way you described the fire, and salazar slytherin's voice. : )
Response from Somigliana (Author of A Matter of Merit)
Thanks for reading... and for your comment about the descriptive language--it's something I try to incorporate into fic as naturally as possible :)
