Reviews for The Silver Spoon Question
Can't wait for their next trip to the Northern coast--if Severus won't borrow the witch some of his clothes, she'll just have to snuggle close to him and share some body heat--hehe! Love Filius' comments, and the banter between Severus and Hermione absolutely reads with underlying *chemistry*, regardess of them both paying hard to get
Lovely, intriguing work! Love all of the historical back story about Salazar!
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
Despite the outrageous opening which was intended as a one-shot, the story won't go away. It may wander back into outrageousness. Thanks for the review.
HA! What a wonderful, unique take on the prompts--love the wit and banter being tossed around--brilliant!
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
Thanks. The intent was to be outrageous.
Hee. Love the rhyming fragments, and Severus's cynicism. :-)
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
Of course, Salazar would set his recipes to rhymes. :)
Short and sweet.
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
At first, I couldn't make anything out of any of the prompts, but this popped into my head a few hours before midnight.
LOL this made me chuckle this morning. Had to send you a review to thank you for making me snort out loud. Loved it. Snort!
Thanks for writing and especially sharing this little gem.
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
Glad to hear that you liked it.
You made me smile, thank you so much:-))
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
Thanks for your kind review.
bits of interest, but not consistent.
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
Glad you like my bits. The inconsistency comment is too vague to reply to since there are all kinds of inconsistencies. The ones you are thinking of may be for artistic purposes, or they could be a lapse in exposition. Please look kindly upon a drabble, which is plucked off the forum and must be completed before midnight.
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
Upon reflection, the last sentence might appear a criticism of your review, but it was not intended that way. It was a plea to forgive my lapses. Also, I feel defective since I cannot identify the inconsistencies to which you refer.
That's a great chapter! Nice epic poem and the conversation between Severus and Hermione had me giggling madly! :D
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
The challenge was to write something to which the primitive elves could relate.
Come, gather round so you can hear
The mighty songs of yesteryear:
Tales too good to put on a shelf,
Loved by all who call themselves elf.
Thanks for the review. (And your sense of humor is still there.)
This conversation cracked me up. And the ads! :D
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
It might take a strange sense of humor to relate to this chapter. (Have I offended you?)
Response from linlawless (Reviewer)
In that case, it doesn't surprise me that it made me giggle! :D (And I'm really hard to offend.)
LOL, well, they may not have seemed viable to you, but you're writing them with a lot of chemistry... Fun chapter! :)
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
Well, the sparks fly. Thanks for the review.
LMAO!!!! Those recipes are hilarious! :D
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
One is not going to win the competition with ordinary dishes. Too bad there are only fragments left. :)
Loved the Molly and Severus scene--the banter and insight! '“We came. We cooked. We swept the impertinent assholes before us,” said Sir Reginald, waving his weapon.'--HA!'“It will lead us to the silver spoon.” Success.'-- so happy that Severus & Hermione will achieve that which they seek--thank you for another scintallating tale! Enjoy so much your inspiration and wonderful Muse with all of MuseAmusant's prompts inspiring you along--looking forward to more!
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
Thanks.
The first half looks at the other side of Molly.
Sir Reginald continues the revisionist view of elves: he is a far cry from Dobby.
'She couldn’t think of a diplomatic way of suggesting they just knock the lady unconscious and toss her in a ditch for a while.'--OMG! My chest is bursting! I don't think I've told you, or not told you enough, how I love your humour *must breathe* *in and out, deep and slow**okay, enough oxygen to continue* the epic poem of the elves is *priceless* Thank you! So the plot is thickening and the silver spoon ('“And I thought they were all born with one,” she had replied.'--HA!) is still eluding Hermione, not found... Hmmm... MUST read on!
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
Yes, the core of this chapter is Hermione's barely controlled jealousy. The elf saga is revisionist history - things may have been different in the past.
HA! Love Severus' quick thinking and skill at deflecting Bella's womanly wiles upon him--she can be quite persuasive... Brilliant ads! I am revelling in your consonantal alliteration usage, flushed with pleasure, and grinning so much--yes, the facial muscles hurt--so happy your titillating naughty, wonderfully written, as always, tale continues! Must hurry to read more!
Response from Fairfield (Author of The Silver Spoon Question)
Glad you like it. He deflects her power play by first pandering to her vanity and then by tempting her with evil flings.
