Lovegood's Almanac Of Magic (13/02/10)

Postby potatoelamb on January 30th, 2010, 9:18 am

A Harry Potter themed legacy written by someone who knows the bare minimum about Harry Potter and who cannot actually bring herself to read the books.

Well, what can go wrong?

Luna Lovegood And The...

Chapter 1.1 : Crumpled Cult
Chapter 1.2 : Unexpected Opponent
Chapter 1.3 : Furry Balls
Chapter 1.4 : Witchy Ways
Chapter 1.5 : Alien Abduction
Chapter 1.6 : Friend In Need
-Heir Poll A
Chapter 1.7 : Empty Nest


Hope it isn't too terrible!

Nice start, hilarious as always. The children are very cute as are the cats (where could Mrs. Norris have gone?). I personally stopped reading HP at the time the first movie came out, I loathed it and never since bothered with the story anymore.

Harry Potter=Mary Sue!

Well done, I'll be looking out for the next chapter.

I read them all, but by the end I was only doing it so that I knew what was going on (and because I was secretly praying that she would kill Harry off in the end). I do have to admit to liking the first three well enough (they're not my fav books, but they're okay) but after that they get too long and twisted and start to make no sense (and Harry gets his period so starts acting like even more of a very rude word!).

Rant over!

Thanks for reading and commenting. The kids and cats are so cute, though the mystery of Mrs Norris will haunt me until I forget about it.

Interesting
Spoiler:
I voted for Arsey, I liked your new format but I kinda miss the jokes, it's cool though.


Keep going.

Yeah, I really don't know how to continue the writing. I might mix the two into some kind of Frankenstein coctail.

Thanks for reading and commenting, and Arsey (oh, that's so mean! I need to work out a better nickname for him) appreciates the vote.

(At the moment, I'm on a school computer, and a few of your chapters were blocked for me. Sorry if my feedback leaves things out.)

Spoiler:
First off, great picture quality! Everything looks gorgeous. Do you take screenshots and sharpen them or are they just pictures taken in game? Oh, and Spark is just adorable. Such big eyes! Oh, and what a gorgeous house. It completely fits with the beach in the background. Oh, that Ritchie guy, he's dressed veeery interestingly. But he is so cute. :) I know this isn't very long, but I have to wait until I get my other computer to read the following chapters. You're very funny!

So to start off with, your legacy is FAR from terrible! It's one of the best I've ever read. You have an amazing sense of writing. I love both your styles you used! You're also very good with plot which is rare to see in legacies. I'm more than inspired to try to create some plot in mine now. :P

Spoiler:
The whole scene with Alice and Arsenius was FLAWLESS. I mean, I could not take my eyes away for one second. Not only did your writing in this scene drive me crazy, the two themselves did. I feel bad for Arsenius and him and Alice are just the cutest. Hopefully he finds himself soon. :)


Ahh, I can not wait for the next chapter! I'm excited to see where everything goes. Keep up the good work! You're also a funny writer. :lol:
Call me Naya. :)
Simself much? Updated verison, here. :D

Thanks. I don't think they look so good, but I got spoilt by my previous laptop, which had an amazing graphics card. This one isn't so hot. But I do have to sharpen them, else they really aren't special.

I hope that you enjoy the rest of the chapters when you read them, and I'm glad that you liked what you already did read.

Thank you so much. I was worried about the plotty stuff, as I don't really plan it much before I take the pictures. I just kinda made it fit around the images I took (which is not the best way to work). So I'm happy that it wasn't totally terrible.

The whole scene with Alice and Arsenius was FLAWLESS. I mean, I could not take my eyes away for one second. Not only did your writing in this scene drive me crazy, the two themselves did. I feel bad for Arsenius and him and Alice are just the cutest. Hopefully he finds himself soon.


Awww, thanks. You are way too kind. I would have loved for Alice and Arsenius to work out together (I am totally in love with him and having my simself kiss him made me happy). I really can't wait to get more into his plot at uni. I has plans (evil plans? No...casual plans. Sorry, AVPM kinda rules my brain whenever Harry Potter is mentioned at all).

Thanks. I'm glad that you like it. And I can't wait either. I'm already planning plots and stuff for the V generation, and I'm really impatient, so I am determined to get this done!

Andromeda is awesome!


It's nice to see some love for at least one of the triplets. Hopefully they'll start being more interesting soon.


Thank you all for being so nice. I really really really appreciate it.

:D Good chapter!

Spoiler:
You're mastering that writing skill! It's really good! :) Now, I totally dislike Arsenius as a wizard. (Is that right?) So my favorite now is Angelina. :D I love her secret cooking life. :P


So, keep it up! Can't wait for the next chapter.

Thanks. I'm still not happy with it, but so long as it's not totally unreadable I guess it's okay. I'll just have to hope I manage to think of a way to make it better.

Perfectionism is a heavy load to bear.

So my favorite now is Angelina. I love her secret cooking life.


I'm glad. I was trying to create some love for at least one of the triplets.


Thanks for reading and commenting. I shall get to work on the next chapter now.

Loved it, I refuse to say stuff I've said before, or maybe not...
Spoiler:
-I really liked the fact that you're trying to get a mix of both writing styles, this one was really good, it had the laughs and the plotsiness. Really nice.
-You made me care about Angelina, it's funny that I thought she was sneaking off to do something else. *shifty*

I'd love to see how you do in college, it's a nightmare for me.


Go you!

Thank you. I do want to have both laughs and plot, but writing both is hard. Hopefully it will get easier.

-You made me care about Angelina, it's funny that I thought she was sneaking off to do something else.


Something else? Whatever could that be? :lol:


Thank you so much for the reading and the nice comment. I do appreciate it so much.
