I'm a 29-year-old from the eastern outskirts of Europe who loves reading, languages, her job and has too much time on her hands for her own good.
Reviews for The Mage
Hey, I realise it's been a long time since this was updated, and you might not even read this, but I wanted to say anyway that I so enjoy this story. I have reread it several times and am so disappointed it is not finished. Loved where it was going :) Hope you do finish it sometime.
Ooooh! I had no idea that you had a WiP on the go. Quite apart from the fact that I rapidly found myself caught up in the story you've woven, I'n just really pleased to know that you're still around in the fandom.
If Snape was worried about Hermione before, he's going to be absolutely frantic now. I do hope he can manage to get her out of there. I wouldn't like to be her when he gets to tell her what he thinks, though.
A highly enjoyable story, and such a shame that it was never finished.
Very exciting. thanks for writing
Very compelling story. I followed you here from Ashwinder. I can't wait to read more!
I love this fic! I can't wait for the next update; although, I have to admit that the little interlude provided by "...Greenhouse..." was most enjoyable!
Please, please continue!!!!
as bold as brass, she is! getting Snape to comply w/HER rules. brava!
whoa. curiouser and curiouser. draco is worrying.
a tumultuous day capped by a stalkery Draco. the plot thickens.
ah! "the sleeper must awaken." I just hope that it's not too late for her power & wit to be sharpened and refined to well beyond incessant hand-waving.....
I concur with Snape's opinion that Granger is a loose cannon and that hanging round Teh Boyz exacerbates the worst excesses of her personality. Dumbles should switch her over to Ravenclaw where she should have been in the first place. but having her work with Snape is, imo, astep in the right direction as she SHOULD be near ppl. who understand & can match her intellectual capabilities.
WOW. That was the penultimate Snape-Granger Confrontation ever put to words. Plus it really was inevitable for Hermione's bookish tendencies to be couched in such overtly sexual context. I think youre the first author to describe her unique affinity in this fashion. Emma makes her look too normal and well-adjusted when your vision seems to agree with mine; that she's an eccentric weirdo.
oh, SNAP. This is an evill cliffie!! please update. lions and tigers and bears, OH MY!!
UGH. I do worry about Malfoy's designs on her....
boy, that Dodo is one odd bird. and hermione now has to help rescue a fellow Mage? COOL.
*yay* Now Hermione will obtain some much-needed control, discretion and wizrd-street-smarts. not to mention subtlety!
finally some answers!! and I like Venla too.
the twins have always been the most bearable and FUN of the whole Weasley bunch. glad that Hermione's not so alone. how did the Malfoys find out she's a mage??
Hmm. What exciting stuff. We still know nothing about the feather, and Lucius wants to purchase Hermione! I'm excited to see what comes next. I wonder how long it will take Severus and Hermione to come to some sort of accord and actually be able to work together peacefully. I really do think your characters are great, they fit the personalities already established by JKR so well, and yet they are still different and creative.
Looking forward to the next chapter.
More More More More More More More More!!
To be honest, I don't think Snape deserve anyones trust at the moment. While he so far ain't playing into Lucius and his prat of a son hands, and one could hardly expect him to be the dashing hero who would do his best to save the day, I do find him less than appealing at the moment. I don't care what role he plays, sometimes the price is just to high to pay and still keep ones dignity and honor. He obviously knew about Draco's attack, he knows that Lucius wants Hermione for some odd reason, but have a very odd way to handle things in my oppinion. Nope, doesn't like or trust him very much, I don't think Hermione should either. I really disliked that she longed so childlishly for his approval, I would want for her to keep her dignity, not being his doormat.
I do find the story intriguing and interesting though and I am looking forward to see more of it, just please don't make Hermione into this weak, patetic doormat that swoons into Severus arms and are trilled for every insult he throws her way since he is such a perfect human being that knows what is best for stupid girls that should kiss the ground he walks on due to his brilliance.
Another great chapter.
I hope we get to learn what type of Mage Snape is before the end of your story. I imagine that it has something to do with his abilities with Legilimency and Occlumency, but that's just a wild guess. He is so good at so many things.
So Malfoy wants to buy her. How very civilized of him. Ha! And how very creepy for Hermione. At least she still feels that she can trust Snape.
And she craves his affection. Another interesting development. Especially when he seems to feel only disdain for her (or does he?)
i have to say i don't like this more abusive turn to the story. seems too ooc.
Response from windwings (Author of The Mage)
I don't think abusive is ooc for either Draco or Snape. Anyways, I hope you continue reading. Have to say, that this is, probably, the all-time low in H and S's relationship, and there's a reason for it.
Wow, rough day for our poor heroine! Well, rough couple of days.
Response from windwings (Author of The Mage)
Yes, she's been through some. And it might get worse in some ways, but in other ways, it'll get better :)
