How chapter four fits into the IMR4MR time frame	[Jun. 25th, 2005\|10:16 pm]To Establish Ties
[Tags\|ch 4]silver_sunn101** wrote: I also see how chapter four fits in once reading The Little Prince, but for some reason it seemed to disrupt the flow of the past story. If chapter four was the present, then Snape telling the story about the little prince in chapters two and three would be the past. It just seemed to throw me off a bit. Once getting into chapter five though, it fit again.lilian_cho wrote: Yeah, chapter four has a different timeline...1999, Snape's reminiscence of Harry. So will chapter 16 and 27. I'm just following the Little Prince, which jumps around with its perspective and time frame many times.Here's more explanation on chapter four.Does it help if I make the font of chapter 4, 16 and 27 a different color?( J’éprouve tant de chagrin à raconter ces souvenirs.Collapse )*******So, does the change in font color help? Or should I alter the font type, font size? Thanks :-)

Backward Beta Chapter 6	[Jun. 22nd, 2005\|02:41 pm]To Establish Ties
[Tags\|ch 6] [Current Mood	...apathetically uneasy...] [Current Music	Aruko, aruko, watashi wa genki/ Aruku no daisuki...]Thanks to why_me_why_not, I finally can formulate what bothers me so much about this chapter: It parallels The Little Prince but does not further the plot of IMR4MR except to show where the relationship of Harry and Snape is going. Too many questions and not enough answers...Here's the published chapter six, keeping in mind why_me_why_not’s beta-ing comments and suggestions. ( Published Chapter Six Collapse ) ( Explanations Collapse ) Harry-Snape dynamics: Is it too soon for Harry to declare that he likes Snape?Is it OoC of Snape to "forgive" Harry's earlier hostility? Is bearing grudges more of a Gryffindor trait or a Slytherin trait?What bothers your about this chapter? What questions pop up in your mind when reading this? Ask me anything you're unclear about re: the AU-ness of this fic. Thank you.

Cold silvery grey eyes — not blue, not blue	[May. 13th, 2005\|01:46 pm]To Establish Ties
[Tags\|ch 1]I just realized that there's no canon information re: Lucius' eye color (or is there?)Some fanfics have Lucius and Draco look exactly alike except for the hair length. This one fanfic, however, gives Lucius blue eyes.So...what do you think? Does Lucius have grey eyes (like Draco) or blue (like Karma)?While we're at it, is there any canon information re: Narcissa's eye color?P.S. ~~I guess it makes sense that canon does not specify Lucius' and Narcissa's eye color, since Harry does not look at them that closely.~~ Canon specifies Draco's eye color ~~because Rowling is a closeted H/D slasher~~ because Draco has numerous showdowns with Harry.ROTFL. Ron's eye color is not even specified in canon! ~~Mwahahaaha...I guess that shot down Harry/Ron. Yay for Canon H/D!~~ Harry must be blind or something for noticing even Ginny's eye color but not Ron's. g ETA 12/22/06: There is canon info for Lucius' eye color! (And probably Narcissa's and Ron's too. But I don't ship Harry/Ron, so who cares :-P) _The man who followed could only be Draco's father. He had the same pale, pointed face and identical cold, gray eyes._PoA, the scene at Borgin and Burkes.

[Tags\|back story] [Current Mood	thankful]Updated May 10, 2005Have you called/hugged your mother today? :-)The next update after chapter three will be the promised back-story on Mrs. Snape's descent into madness (for sinick). Chapter four will be posted the week after the back-story.I must be the only daughter in the universe who celebrates Mother’s Day by writing a story of a mother’s descent into madness.Anyway…I’ve only written the dedication and outline so far…( Dedication Collapse )Did I get the French right? I want “A White Hat” as title, so… "Un Chapeau Blanc"? Or is it “Un Blanc Chapeau”? Thanks :-)Any comments and/or questions? P.S. Just in case some of you are wondering, my mom's v. much alive--albeit a continent away. I won't be surprised if she outlives me, really, since she's _way_ more athletic and healthy than I am.
