Fic for shocolate: 'John Lennon and the soul of Yoko Ono.'

Nov 23, 2006 13:27

shocolate requested something with Seamus/Neville, Seamus/Ron or Seamus/Ginny, without anything nasty and with anything nice. I did the best I could: there's Seamus/Neville, and Seamus/Ginny friendship, and a major supporting role played by Ron. Many apologies for the lateness, many salutes to kaalee for the extension, many hugs to florahart for the beta, to oconel for the ( Read more... )

Damn, I love your writing.

Thank you :)

Your punctuation is amazing.

I swear that's meant to sound better than it does. But. Oy.

nothingbutfic November 23 2006, 08:28:07 UTC

My punctuation is bizarre and flouts most of the usual grammatical conventions.

But it does so pointedly. Which makes it fantastic. (Notice that neither of these were proper sentences. Notice how much propriety seems to inspire me. IT'S THE MECHANICS OF THE ART!)

I don't understand the rules; I just write what sounds right. Some people see words; I hear them.

to oconel for the handholding
Whenever you want :)

The comparison between the Gryffindors and The Beatles is amazing (fun and clever), and makes sense. (And the references all over the fic made me laugh)

I like how you wrote (followed) their friendship through the years, how Neville sees himself (clumsy and a looser) and how Seamus seems to see him in a completely different light; and I also love how you show Seamus trough Neville's eyes (specially how he notices the details about Seamus's family).

(And I liked the parenthesis!)

it’ll be (just like) starting over.

That's the perfect ending :)

I'm sorry about the death! I can't expect why some things in my fic happen, but they have to. Or something.

oconel November 23 2006, 10:54:53 UTC

Don't worry about it :D

nothingbutfic November 23 2006, 10:55:57 UTC

Still, I had this image of Seamus railing against a stormy sky, and I knew exactly why he'd do it.

Yay!

nothingbutfic November 24 2006, 00:03:21 UTC

Thankee!

That was absolutely lovely- one of the best things I've read recently.
Thank you so much.

My pleasure :)
