Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 9 from Artemetis on August 01, 2008
"I'm going to fuck Hastur with the big holy dildo right up his evil immortal ass." and "No, Padma. I came here to find the Stone of Fal and instead what we get is the Stone of Fail." These have to be two of the best lines in this whole chapter; I was lucky I wasn't drinking at the time otherwise my screen would have been covered in water as I snorted. Another fantastic chapter, can't wait for more!

My favorite was: "Deeper, Harry! Deeper, Harry!" "You're on top. Push down harder, dammit!" he snarled. "Bloody hell! Owww!" But it's always good to know that I made someone snort. Snorting is underated.

Good one, Heather. I laughed at the dialog, Harry is certainly perverse. I can't wait to see how it turns out. :)

Thanks Raven! See what can happen to someone over the course of ten years when you don't have a Dark Lord hanging over you. Perv!Harry
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 9 from whatareyouevensaying on July 31, 2008
Very good update. It's hard to say what the strongest part of this story is, though the first thing that always comes to mind is the Harry/Padma banter. Looking forward to more.
Author reply
I'm taking it as a good thing that you are having a hard time with the decision. But Dialogue is always a good choice!
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 8 from Artemetis on July 29, 2008
As an fan of some of your older works on ff.net I stumbled across this story by pure chance, and I consider myself lucky as this is quite the tale you have going here. I am eagerly awaiting to see how it turns out.
Author reply
Well welcome back into the fray. I should have the next chapter out in a couple of days.
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 8 from Glrasshopper on July 28, 2008
Frell me. You are one seriously talented author. Definitely looking forward to how this story progresses.
Author reply
Thankyou. It will be progressing right along. Big climatic fight in the next chapter.
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 5 from Jeram on July 27, 2008
Good stuff. Minor mistake: "It was a late. She used Polyjuice Potion" - missing something after "late", there. And I'm a bit confused by the ending. Is Padma saying Daphne's name because Harry didn't sleep with her or because he did?
Author reply
Thank you for your critique. And Yes.
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 8 from whatareyouevensaying on July 27, 2008
Excellent work, the banter was as strong as ever. Pity Harry fought like a drunken Death Eater...glad Padma got to him in time. Looking forward to more.
Author reply
Thank you. Well while Harry is a talanted Auror, he's not Super!Harry in this fic. The Evil Dirty Yellow Coat was just a little too quick for him this time... that does sound pathetic, doesn't it.
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 8 from morriganscrow on July 27, 2008
Excellent! Harry sure knows how to charm both the ladies and the Hellspawn. This is getting really tense and exciting. I look forward to reading more
Author reply
That gave me a bad visual... a tentacle sex visual ... eww. More tenseness and action to come!
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 8 from PapaMidNite on July 27, 2008
Good chapter, it reminds of the Hero trilogy with all the demons and stuff. I still like it though. pm
Author reply
Thank you, I wish I knew what the Hero trilogy was ...
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 8 from cjonbloodletter on July 26, 2008
You could feel the tension builing up in this chapter, great work. Kind wonder what the cauldren full of water's for, is Harry gonna heat it up later when he's hungry and make gratuitous amounts of ramen? All in all I'm loving this story so far, It's the main reason I even made an account here on PatronusCharm Cjon the Bloodletter
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 8 from Lord Ravenclaw on July 26, 2008
A most excellent chapter, Heather. Things are getting interesting now, I look forward to seeing what Gimp!Harry will manage to get himself into next. I lol'd at the thought of Harry having his ass handed to him by a coat though. XD Nice job, look forward to the next. :D
Author reply
Thank you, Raven. Only a few more chapters to go and then it gets fun!
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 8 from wolf550e on July 26, 2008
you need to proofread this. it's cool, but short.
Author reply
I thought I had a notice in a few places that this was an unbetaed story because my beta works on my ULFD, so unless you are volunteering ... additionally this chapter is actually my second longest. It just that not much happened because chapter 8 is a set up for the end. Thanks for the feedback
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 7 from PapaMidNite on July 23, 2008
I'm came from your page on ff.net and I must say that you have written an interesting tale so far. I may have to check out some Lovecraft. Good job so far pm P.S. I was about to send an e-mail about my horrid fantasy but you left that message on your page. Alas, I wish I was Vash the Unholy.
Author reply
This is more "Club Dumas" than it is Lovecraft. While I'm sure Lovecraft was the shit back at the turn of the century, his work is mildly okay by today's standards. And Thanks!
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 7 from ReviewerOfTheWest on July 12, 2008
Depending on what the definition of an entrance is, I think it would be pretty challenging to seal up all of the entrances. Do air ducts count? Water/sewage/gas/telco pipes count? Could one ``seal'' the gates on the grounds (and any underground tunnels) instead? Please continue.
Author reply
Damn if that isn't the case. Something's gotta give. Find out soon.
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 7 from TxA_GunFighter on July 11, 2008
Very good chapter. I do hope they get past all the bad thingies soon. gunny
Author reply
There's a lot of bad thingies out there ... may take a while. Thanks!
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 7 from Zombie on July 09, 2008
I heard many good things about your story. The rumors were true. Excellent work. The Bukkake references were rather hilarious. I couldn't help but chuckle when I read them.
Author reply
I'm very glad the rumors are of the good kind.Thanks!
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 7 from scaryisntit on July 06, 2008
The chapter title is certainly an adequate summary of my thoughts right now. As always, I'm thoroughly enjoying your work. Hope to see more again soon.
Author reply
It's usually my comment in mysteries as well. The author throws a revelation at you and you're like, Uhhhh, WTF! Sorry, but do you really want Padma and Harry to go 'research some more' or would you like a little change in the pace. Look out for the freaky stuff coming soon!
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 7 from Lord Ravenclaw on July 06, 2008
Hmm. This one seemed...different. More rushed almost. Interesting to see more the the mystery unraveled through. Good work though, enjoyable. :) Can't wait...or rather, I can but would rather not wait for the next installment.
Author reply
It was different, because there were tasks that seperated the two main charactrers and reasons that couldn't be shared with the others ... so scene skippage/jumpage rushed the morning. I'm not one for "inner thought and termoil" in a story so I suppose that added to the rushed aspect. It just seems a cop out to me when authors use this because they can't expalin thier character's actions though the story. I could have had a scene where Harry had a lot of "thoughts" while he did the protection sigils, but is it really needed? I dunno. Maybe that's why I write fanfic instead of doing this for money. Lack of talent.
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 7 from aduroconglacio on July 06, 2008
Nice. The humor of Harry's personality, even in the face of Old Ones and Elder Gods, is really quite amusing. Keep it up!
Author reply
I suppose his attitude is 'what's the worst they could do, kill me?' Well he'll learn that there are fates worse than death.
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 7 from morriganscrow on July 05, 2008
I think Harry's going to regret his flippant, chauvinistic attitude real soon - for several reasons. Pissing off Padma when she's the one who has much of the knowledge he needs is foolish, while pissing off the harbingers of an Elder God is suicidal. Harry is a brilliant fighter, but he needs to grow the Hell up, no pun intended. Excellent chapter.
Author reply
Remember that this is an H/Padma fic as well. They will iron out their differences eventually. The baddies are actually harbingers or an Old One, but I get your meaning. And yes... very suicidal. But that's one of the reasons we love Harry: his big gigantic balls!
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 7 from whatareyouevensaying on July 05, 2008
Great work! It's a pity we've got another unspeakable name...but maybe this one will be more justified than Voldemort's impossibly powerful spell in DH. Looking forward to more.
Author reply
Not to worry, the name will be revealed in the next chapter becasue Harry is Harry and he won't be able to resist. And yes it is very justified. Voldemort isn't even a blip on the radar compared to The Unspeakable.
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 6 from TxA_GunFighter on July 04, 2008
Good chapter. gunny

Thanks.
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 6 from wolf550e on July 04, 2008
Awesome gore!
Author reply
Um ... thanks. I can promise more gore to come. Not mindless gore, but gore just the same.
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 6 from morriganscrow on July 04, 2008
Bloody brilliant! A rip snorter of a chapter - that only doubling it's length could make me like it more.
Author reply
Thank you for your kind comments! I keep the chapters between 4-5000 so that I can stay constant in producing material. I too love long chapters but for me it just doesn't work properly. On the plus side I am updating quite frequently. Thanks for reading!
Review for Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod Chapter 6 from Lord Ravenclaw on July 04, 2008
Mm, so the plot thickens. Good work, I look forward to more.

Thickerer and thickerer. Thanks for supporting me with reviews, Raven. MWAAAH.
