Interesting story. If the critics think there are problems with this story, then I can point out another author on here that writes abysmal SI fics. Spelling and grammar are both bad, and the \"Mary Sue\" is usually set up to have a \"harem\" of females before the 3rd chapter.

I happen to think this story a good one. Snape\'s feelings about the injuries sustained during the final battle were thought out well enough, and I suspect some PTSD is involved there. Warfare changes those who fight them, and even those who only train to fight them.

I admit that the chapters are a bit shorter than I\'ve seen in many fics, but long chapters are not always a good thing either.

Hey you really get so defensive. I was just curious because I\'d been following your story and hoping that it you would eventually clarify certain things. I thought the storyline was really unique though the format and skipping around confusing. It was so promising I didn\'t really care.

I have really been flamed before myself no big deal! I\'ve have had people call me a stupid bitch and other things I won\'t mention. I never removed the flames because they were funny to me. I\'m really thick skinned so I let go. Criticism is never easy to swallow but I\'ve learned over the years to pick from it suggestions on how to improve. As a person that likes to write - even when it\'s for myself - I want it to be good. I\'m sure you feel the same. Just ignore the flames. Giving any attention to them makes them very happy. Trust me it\'s true.

I didn\'t see the review with the curses, so I can\'t respond to that. I was talking about the one that said that Hermione seemed masculine. When I read that I actually went back to read your post again to see if there was any truth to that observation. Differences of opinions and discussions mean that a fic actually inspired people to really think about it. What better compliment could be given than to have a full blown discussion on your review page!

You have the right to remove any post you don\'t like and to write any way you feel. You don\'t even have to respond to nosy bints like myself. I just found it funny that you removed anything. My friends always tell my I find the most inappropriate things funny so forgive me.

To wrap this up keep posting. At least to please yourself if nothing else. Just so you know I didn\'t find Hermione masculine.

Wow. Sounds like you are getting flamed. Try not to let that get to you, I personally would like to know how Hermione is getting along and what the heck she brewed! ;) I\'m specifically encouraging you to continue. Hope people start using tact with you soon. *sigh*

From what I understand you\'ve had some trouble with reviewers. This may make you feel better. I am absolutely intrigued by your story. I cannot wait to see what happens next. My favorite kinds of stories are the ones where you have to guess what happens next. I can\'t wait for your update (which I hope is soon by the way). No rush or anything. I\'m sure I\'ll find plenty of stories to read in the mean time. Keep up the good work!!!

Do not let flamers make you feel less than you are. Write your story and just enjoy it.

Waiting for your updates...so keep posting.

You write very well, Love the concept as well. Ignore the flamers, including the ones who hide behind seemingly innocent words!. (Including the ones who write such negative reviews. It doesn\'t seem at all as if they are trying to help you, more like stroking their own netego.) The story is wonderful, it\'s not too short at all. Anon, simply because an author writes \"short\" or \"small\" chapters doesn\'t make them less experienced than the rest. In a way you are calling her a liar, tsk tsk.
Reviews aren\'t to be used to insult, insinuate falsehood, degrade the author, it is a way to express ones opinion about the story.
But I guess Anon is just a bastard :D.

You certainly did not deserve that review. I hope you continue with your story since I REALLY like it. Don\'t let stupid people get you down.

Attention to all people who are referring to \'anon\' as one person. ANON is short for ANONYMOUS. If you leave the \'Name\' box blank when writing reviews, it is filled in automatically with the abbreviation \'anon\' when it comes up on the review page.

Before you start screaming at me I am not any of the above

I am not wondering about Prentice\'s maturity, I am wondering about Anon. The fact that she continues to come back to Flawed Chemistry, a story which she claims to dislike, and leave flames. How sad and pathetic is that? If you don\'t like a story, do as most everyone else does...don\'t read it. If you leave a crap review, don\'t come back to defend your title repeatly. You are just making other see you as a pathetic, immature reader.
