Reviews for Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law
Simply adorable parody or not. LOL I too have a soft spot for the marriage law fics. Pity so many of them were abandoned!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
Yeah, many were. Also, Time-Turner stories. Sigh. Thank you for reading! Teehee
Loved this story! Definitely have a soft spot for the Marriage Law stories.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
~grin~ Thank you.
“Wand at the ready, Davies. You won’t get away *for these insults.”[Would sound better if you changed 'for' to 'with.']
Cheesed up? Does that make them CheeseWhiz-ards?
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
Yes, it would. I'll change that shortly. Thank you. Hahahaha! Harry Potter and the Savage Cheese Puffs. :)
LOL! I give in, you certainly had enough clichés left!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
:) Grin
Good grief girl, you're being a worse cynic than our beloved Potions Master!! Most MLC stories were/are just plain fun.
One of the things that I could never figure out about the original concept was if the numbers of magical persons were dwindling due to the inbreeding etc ... it never made any sense to me that if the poor muggleborns didn't comply with the ML then they would have their wands broken and be banished from the magical world, or thrown into Azkaban. This action would thereby reduce the number of magical folk available even more and the Ministry would not be able to accomplish their goals.
Of course the whole ML idea was ludicrous to begin with, but I'm still a total sucker for one ... even yours!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
Yep. I'm following an MLC that's just coming out now. Nostalgic, that. :)And yes, me too! I thought something similar as well. "How could they do this bs?" :)
I wept! I cried! I sporfeld and broccoli grew!Your story has such amazing powers!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
LOL!! Thanks for reading.
Glad to see a happy end in this although I didn't doubt it. I also would add that I should hex you for suggesting me to read "panther and lioness". Is was so great that I spent most of last night reading it. I don't need to say I had some difficulties concentrating at work today. Anyway if you had other suggestion I'll be glad to hear about it but only before the week-end, for my sleep's sake.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
Man, that's a great one, isn't it? Ah, those were the days. Actually, Valenque has a gigolo story, which is my fave of that challenge. I'm trying to think of the name... Damn. It's not coming to me. But she's removed a bunch of her stories, so it should be easy enough to find. :) Luckily, it's not very long. Teehee But I really like the Snape in there. Hahaha
LOL, I liked it. I am addicted to the MLC and like them all, lotsa cheese or not. Keep them on!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
Grin. Thank you! Glad you liked it.
OH Sunshine I laughed and laughed! I really enjoyed your poking fun! Maybe I should do a pureblood!snape quiz...
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
oooh, yes! LOL Good idea
I cant get the grin off my face! All hail Lord Snape!!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
Lord Snape, last in line of the Snapes who hail from Snape in England and live in Snape Castle... LOL
Incredible! Who'd have thought such a strong marriage would result from such a terrible law? Er ... oh yeah ... I guess a lot of people have. Your affection for the (in)famous MLC does shine through the laughs. And it made me go back and read "Like Sands Through The Hourglass" for even more SS/HG wackiness, so thanks twice.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
OH, great! I loved writing "Sands..." Just coming up with the outrageous stuff in the story they read was fun. :) Thanks!
Now I know what someone else meant about your making them rethink their own wriitng. It made me realize just how many of the cliches I have in my own pieces. Meep!
But it was a fun read. Your cliches didn't stick with just MLC-related ones; I like the boys going down to see Hagrid's "cute" pet. Oh, and Severus' jealousy is a force to be reckoned with. Thanks for helping all of us to remember not to take ourselves too seriously.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
We all have these things in our stories. It's hard to be original and fresh these days. My first published HG/SS was The Succubus, and LOL, some of this stuff lurks in there, I'm certain. (Even the jealous Snape... bwahahaa)
Totally brilliant as usual. Your Snape was spot on. I love the MLC stories because there are so many different types of relationships created using our two favorite people.I honestly love your Snape. He is written totally in character. So many I have read make him soft and clingy...that is not Snape.As for your lemons...well you are one of the best :>) and have once again come though with a very touching scene. The only thing I thought was a bit strange was when the students of Snape's house rallied around her. I think it was brilliant, honestly. I sit and await more glorious stories from you :>)Linda

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
LOL. Thanks. This was just fun. I'm mucking around with an apprentice story that I will parody and post. I hope to entertain you once again.
:sobs: O ALL THE CLICHES I HAVE SO PASSIVELY AND GREEDILY SWALLOWED like the seed of a certain Potions Master!
I am soooo ashamed. Thank you, SW, for helping me see the light.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
LOL!! Thanks for reading. :)
ZOMG! That is, like, the kewlest MLC out there!!! And the hawt sex00rs were just, oh wow *fans self*.
Srsly, you are totally made of win. :-)
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
OOh! Made of win! Totally Awesome!
I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the way you wrote the character of Gregory Goyle. His presence is not essential to the plot, nor is any of his dialogue important to progressing the story, and yet, there he is. It is like the character Benicio Del Torro plays in "The Usual Suspects." Del Torro chose to mumble his character's lines throughout the movie because none of them were related to plot progression. (Now that character is remembered for being unintelligible).I think your characterization of Goyle adds another level to your parody since so many authors strive to find some way for each and every one of their characters to contribute to the story (and yet it seems that not all succeed ... mmm). Sometimes the characters end up as "set decoration" adding ambiance to the common room or classroom. I think with Goyle you have succeeded with a character who does not add to the plot or the setting. Well done.Actually it could make for quite a funny story if one of the predominate characters were written like this. It would be interesting to see how the characters who are trying to move the story deal with one that not only isn't trying but doesn't realize there is a story to move.Anyway, I enjoyed your parody. I am thankful you stayed out of melodrama-land. Perhaps that's why some people didn't catch the parody. I think you did a good job; succeeding in the goal you set for yourself, up to and including burying a hatchet in the story (with your A/Ns) to keep it from raising its ugly head again.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
Cool. Thank you very much for the thoughtful review. I appreciate it. I'm always looking for a way to enteratin. I do agee with what you said about minor characters. Good points.
Wow, far cry from the quality I'm accustomed to seeing written under the SW69 name. It reads like a visit to cliche land. Glad to see your writing has improved (vastly) and that you're not ashamed to camp something up and post it for giggles.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
Not ashamed in the least. :) Well, not too ashamed anyway. Hahaha! I'll admit that this was fun, though, especially the giggling I got from it. Bwahahaha. Thank you.
Yeah, I had fun. This chapter seemed cheesier than the last one, so I shudder to think what you would have done with a third ;). Thanks for the good laugh after a stressful day at work!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
It's all that fluffy love/sex/feelings that makes it a bit more cheddery (not really a word, is it? LOL). Glad you liked it.
Three rounds of love-making in a row? ...snicker...lucky girl, wizards must not need time to recoup.eyes raking over his thick, hairy chest...Ah yeah, canon all the way!Dear God, someone save us from Floormat!Hermione, Schizo!Snape, irrational jealousy, and angry!sex. All right, I do know someone that was relaying a story about being interrupted by her boyfriend's daughter while they were having sex during an argument. I have to say, if I'm mad, my WHOLE body is mad...lolWow, these two covered a lot of ground in just a few days.And they lived happily ever after—with triplets who each had a hard to spell nameHardest thing in the world, what to name their kid, and where to sort it...lol... great story, I enjoy it immensely.

Sbrande and I have figured out that it's b/c he is a wizard, and a pureblooded one to boot (from an ancient like of aristocrats). They have like MAJOR stamina.LOLOLToo funny. Thanks so much for commenting (here and on the yahoo groups). Snerkity snerk. :)Dang. I forgot to mention the arguing over their sorting!! lol ah well
This was so wondrously terrible I couldn't even read it. :P You were completely successful at what you set out to do.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
Bwahahaha! Great! Thank you for "trying" to read. Snerk :)
I've always loved the MLC stories. This one made me smile. Thank you!

Oooh, came home and got chapter two! You've actually made my day a bit brighter! I love that she just snuck under his skin.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
Yay. Glad you enjoyed my crazy tale.
Copied this to read at work and was giggling so loud I had to close the door. Good story. Thanks for posting...
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
LOL~ Thank you for reading.
I was going to count how many of the cliches you'd used in here (one could make a list of quiz for game out of it, if one is not terribly lazy like me) but gave up because I was busy laughing.
Down to the last sentence, it was funny and very enjoyable.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of Parody: The Amazing Marriage Law)
Thank you very much! I appreciate that. I'm so happy that people got a smile out of this.
