Reviews for A Time to Trust

This story is... intriguing. Goodness knows I've read dozens of Time-Turner story, but this one is by far my favorite. You're taking things from a different angle, and it's one that I like very much. Nice work on the characterization as well--I'm growing incredibly fond of your Regulus and he's raising canon questions for me that I've never considered. Nice job, and please update soon!

Author's Response: Thanks for making me smile! "Intriguing" is basically my favorite word, so to hear it applied to one of my stories is really exciting. I have also read dozens of TT fics, but none set in this particular period, so I'm really enjoying playing with it. I can't wait to play with Regulus more. I knew he was going to be a big part of this story, but the more I write about him, the more I want to bring him back even more. We'll see what happens to him. Thanks so much!

Good chapter, you are starting to build up the tention...... I can't wait to see what happens with Severus and Hermione.

Author's Response: I love Unresolved Sexual Tension. Not, you know, in my life... but it's definitely fun in theirs. :) Thanks!

Wow, I'm really enjoying the Regalus development. Looking forward to the next chapter, cheers for posting.

Author's Response: I'm glad to hear Regulus is interesting you. He'll be around more. Thanks!

Great chapter. I absolutely love your characterization of Regulus. He is turning out to be an amazing character. Masterfully done.

Author's Response: Ooh! I'm glad you like Regulus. He's going to be showing up more and more.

I love the direction you're taking the story in! Keep up the fantastic work! (Quick question: is the potion Wolfsbane?)

Author's Response: I'm glad you like the direction the story is going. I'm sort of overwhelmed with writing everything that I need to for it. :) And the potion is not Wolfsbane. It's a little more... necessary... to Hermione.

Well written, so what potion?

Author's Response: It's a potion she needs. And thanks!

Yay! This story has been updated! I haven’t been to Ashwinder in a while, so I didn’t realize that you had given us several more chapters to gnaw on. What a delight! In honor of my joy at discovering this, I decided to deviate from my usual reviewing technique (i.e. read, then spew incessant praise) and type of the review as I read. “As if she hadn’t already listed Snape among things that go bump in the night.” I have read many colorful descriptions of Snape in the past, but this is definitely a new one on me. I just had to pause—and giggle—and enjoy just how perfectly this illustrates Professor Snape. Tee Hee! “Well… er… you see, sir…” Oops! That’s a potentially devastating slip for the precarious position Hermione finds herself in now. I love how for a moment Hermione forgets and reacts to someone who is completely different to the young man in front of her. Hermione is instinctively cowering before the greasy git Professor, and the young newly hired teacher just out of faded grey underpants revels in the “respect” that he unknowingly took many long hard years to earn. This short lapse makes Hermione’s forceful recovery short after just that much more dramatic. (And presumably just that much more invigorating to Snape.) Given their very limited interaction up to this point, there is so much going on underneath the surface. “Hermione would have given anything for a tiny bottle of Felix Felicis at that moment.” And in spite of her bravado, you brilliantly show that Hermione is not at all convinced of the chances of her survival. “She also had the unreasonable desire to quick her heels three times. There’s no place like home. Snape smirked as he watched her fidget and shift her feet.” Love this! Once again, Snape ever so slightly misinterprets Hermione. “She ran.” I totally did not expect this! LOL! There went Hermione’s Gryffindor courage. Then again, this is probably what most everybody else would do when faced with the consequences of abducting Severus Snape. “Severus was shocked. He hadn’t expected her to run of all things.” Nice to know I’m not the only one… “Albus Dumbledore, Gryffindor to the end, trusted in his gut. And although his gut was hoping the House-elves were serving those delightful roasted potatoes for dinner, it was also telling him a recent arrival had something to do with this.” So perfectly Dumbledore. “A Time-Traveling Troublemaker” And once again, Albus Dumbledore knows way more than he rightfully ought to. “Severus Snape would never have the Dark Arts position. Because Albus wasn’t willing to lose him. Not yet. Not until he was ready to let him go forever.” Very Poignant. There’s so much to say about this section of Dumbledore’s musings, but I’m running out of time to respond as I’d like. Suffice to say I’m fully drawn in and convinced that I haven’t read fanfic authors write as profound and intricate Dumbledore in a while (if ever). “She impressed him. She pissed him off.” Snape. Hermione. Nutshell. I swear I can almost see the sparks flying off of these two while I read. I am curious as to just where Snape left Hermione. He’s just earned a job at Hogwarts, so I don’t think he would have his own quarters yet. The Slytherin dormitories or maybe Snape’s house? I guess I’ll just have to get on to reading the next few chapters to find out!

Author's Response: Yay! I'm so glad to see you're still following the story. I've been waiting for our game of your-favorite-line-to-read=my-favorite-line-to-write. The "bump in the night" and "click her heels together three times" were phrases that I really wanted to use to illustrate her Muggle upbringing. I think we all have times in our lives that remind us of movies and books that we've read... especially those from our childhood. Hermione would be the same way. This Snape and Hermione are going to be reevaluating each other and their positions (power, friendship, etc.) a LOT. I hope I can keep their banter entertaining and revealing. :) And I'm loving writing Dumbledore. I look forward to your opinions on Dumbledore and what he asks of Hermione in chapter seven (I think it it's seven... whichever one I just posted). I also can't wait to see what you think of our newest character once we get inside his head. Thanks so much for reading the story and taking the time to offer up all these great comments. I really appreciate it!
