Reviews for The Godfather
Well the story was great. The epilogue not so much it felt rushed and unfinished, I would never be in a relationship with that kind of limbo...are they a couple or are they friends with benifits?
Finally!!!!
This chapter brought tears to my eyes!
This is a wonderful chapter!!
VERY powerful chapter!!
very well written,thank you!
Well, I loved all the story except the epilogue. I mean, after all she went trough they just share a bed once in a while? They're not married, they don't have children or a life together even though they love each other? Come on, it's been 11 years from Al's birth, things should have moved on!
It's like he keeps her in a limbo, not exactly in or out of his life. I know he's affraid of commitment but 11 years and she still lives somewhere else...I'm so disapointed because I thought things will be ok!!!
Great story but, as I've said, the epilogue disapointed me very much. :(
Oh this was brilliant - in particular your characterisation of Snape was brilliant. He was so absolutely true to what I think canon Snape must be like in his insecurity and depression and self-doubt. And Hermione - full of passion and determination to slowly chip away at his layers - they are very happy together at the end in their quiet way and it suits them, I think.
Beautifully written and crafted - I was very moved by Hermione's emotions - you wrote the emotional aspect of this fic so well.
This fic is great on so many levels - I loved the rather original angle of Snape as Albus' godfather - really liked seeing more of Harry and Ginny in this fic too!
And I applaud all the work that has gone into this - the translation was extremely good and I would not have known it was originally written in German if you did not put it at the top of the story!
This chapter was very powerful and disturbing at the same time. I quite detest Snape for behaving as he did - using Legilimency on Hermione like that is a completely disproportionate reaction to her 'eavesdropping' on him and quite unforgiveable. I am glad that Hermione has 'lost any respect' for him and am interested to see where you will take this story next!!
This fic was just so lovely! Severus' characterisation was perfect!
I don't think I've read a FF yet that captured the essence of Snape so perfectly. Wonderful story and thank you for translating it.
That was the most awesome harry potter fanfiction Ive ever read. I mean, I dont even LIKE snape that much, and a pairing between him and Hermione made me raise eyebrows, but that was REALLY good.
A very enjoyable story. Thank you to both the original author as well as a very fine translator. Honest there were only a couple of spots in the entire story where it showed at all.
I hope you both continue working in the genre/translating non english fanfics. I am sure there are a pleathora of wonderful stories us silly english only speakers are missing.
Lovely ending. I will assume that both Hermione and Severus were very happy together.
Response from Muggline (Author of The Godfather)
Oh yes, even though it's probably not the "princess and prince married, had loads of children and lived happily ever after" kind of thing.
Whoa. Earthquake is right. I'm a bit tearful at the moment. I'm so glad you translated this Muggline and so glad Marisol wrote it. I'd love to read more of her stuff.
Response from Muggline (Author of The Godfather)
I can understand that. This was her longest (and in my opinion also her best) fanfiction, though. As my RL is getting real busy at the moment, I will probably not do as much leisure translation work as I used to (and I still have 90 chapters of "Loving the Enemy" to consider...).
What a great story, it never disappointed. The ending was so sweet. While they still had separate living spaces I got the sense that they spend more time together than separate.
Response from Muggline (Author of The Godfather)
Yes, that's what I think, too. But with those two, it would certainly be good if every one had his/her own space to withdraw sometimes.
OH GOD! Hagrid and the weird stuff he has around. Now WHY would anyone turn their heads on the kids in that hut?! LOL. OMG. Severus is gonna have a cow.
Response from Muggline (Author of The Godfather)
Could you please explain the expression "to have a cow"???
LOL. Prove it! Snape just loves to say that.
I haven't reviewed for a few chapters because I keep forgetting to stop reading long enough to write! WOW!
I really think it was brilliant and I'm so glad you translated it for us!
Response from Muggline (Author of The Godfather)
I can assure you - it was great fun!
OH MY FLIPPIN GOODNESS, that was amazing. Great ending to this incredibily well thought out fic. Marisol is amazing and you are amazing for translating this for us. THank you!
Response from Muggline (Author of The Godfather)
*takes a very deep bow* thank you! I just saw that "Godfather" made it to the top ten of most reviewed and most read stories - WOW! Not bad for a first attempt!
awww ^^
I'm going to read the next chapter. I'm enjoying it so far.
One of the most beautiful stories on the entire Web. Thank you to Marisol, and thank you to Muggleline for the wonderful translation.
Response from Muggline (Author of The Godfather)
Oh my, that's a HUGE compliment. Wow
Great finish. A thoughtful portrait of a deeply scarred character. I thought that the slow pace was necessary considering how incapable Snape was of dealing with life, emotions or much of anything. Hermione's commitment to him and patience were, I think, quite extraordinary-which makes for a great romance, but in real life, few people would 'stay the course' after such rejection and pain.My compliment to Marisol for her story and to you for rendering it into enjoyable and entertaining English prose.
Response from Muggline (Author of The Godfather)
Now the "enjoyable" compliment should go to all the ladies at TPP for beta, gamma and further reading, editing and correcting. I am horrible at English punctuation, you know...
