Reviews for An Opposing Opinion
So that's how it happened. Makes sense, actually.
Response from Rose of the West (Author of An Opposing Opinion)
Oh, thank you! He knew he was leaving, so he wanted to leave something of himself behind...
OMG, well, I'm reading these reviews before I add mine, and may I interject this convo by saying, I can't see any a time when the basilisk would have wagged her tail and licked people when they came to see her, unfortunately??? LOL!I really do wonder, though, what was going through his head to build such a thing? And the one thing I know from cleaning out my shower drain this weekend that wasn't described in COS? Pipes SMELL! Why didn't anybody say it stunk down there????
Response from Rose of the West (Author of An Opposing Opinion)
LOL... no, I don't think anyone got a wagging tail from the basilisk when they went to visit her. If they had sufficient food, she may have shown some form of gratitude, though.And you may have hit on the reason the Evanesco spell was invented...Thanks for the review!
Oooh, now I see why you were so secretive! :)
Response from Rose of the West (Author of An Opposing Opinion)
Yes, exactly! Thank you for the review!
Sad. Nicely done, Rose.
Response from Rose of the West (Author of An Opposing Opinion)
Yes, the circumstances were very sad. Thank you for the review!
The poor basilisk, abandoned and alone after Godric left, with no one to talk to. No wonder she was cranky by the time Harry got there.
Response from Rose of the West (Author of An Opposing Opinion)
LOL! It occured to me as I wrote this that he must have told his children that it was there and how to care for it. It was probably yet another thing that got lost by the time the Slytherins degenerated into the Gaunt family. But yes, she might not have been quite so cranky to start with.
