DolbyDigital chapter 1 . 10/29/2015
I absolutely loved this! I really want to know what happened! How did Bellatrix choose Rodolphus over her daughter? Why? This was beautifully written - the only typo I noticed was that [a beautiful] should probably be [as] - and it flowed really well. I loved the use of flashbacks; I think they worked really well here, and the moments were chosen very well.

I would love to see more but, at the same time, I think you’ve stopped at the perfect place, and left just the right amount of information to show everything that needs to be told and still leave people guessing.

I really loved how you've portrayed Bellatrix, and especially her relationship with her husband. I liked that they were once loving, but that it’s deteriorated, and I loved the idea that Bellatrix wanted nothing more than a daughter.

oh, this was so good. Creepy, true, but so good. There are always hints that Bella was insane before Azkaban, but this is a wonderful way to show her decline. And I love Rodolphus in this. I like that you didn't make him an emotionless bastard. He was truly broken by the death of his daughter. It's just great.

This is a little confusing to me, but it ends up working all right, because Bellatrix is so confused the whole time. How heartbreaking. I wonder how her little girl died, if it really was because of what Bellatrix did (or didn't do), or if it was a miscarriage or something and it's more Bellatrix's guilt crushing her than anything else. It's so painful because all the little signs that something's horribly wrong, yet she can't remember until the end. It's nice to see another side of Bellatrix (and another side of her relationship with Rodolphus), but then it's this side, and it's painful.

Oh no. Oh no. I want to know how the little girl died. Bella is my favourite character and it's nice to see her with a motherly side and having a child. However, in this story, she doesn't remember that she had a child (Narcissa doesn't either), but Rodolphus seems to (since he's always drinking). This was well-written and the dreams vs. reality flowed well. However, I think the last section/dream should be italcized and you misspelled Rodolphus' name a few times.
Fire The Canon chapter 1 . 10/27/2015
This was interesting. Honestly, it was really refreshing reading a genuine romance between Bellatrix and Rodolphus. There are actually very few of this pairing in a romantic setting, which I liked. Of course, you had them drifiting away and all, but it was still very sweet.

I was a little confused throughout, though, about why Bellatrix's memory was gone. I'm not sure if I missed something or not. And just be careful about Rodolphus' name. Most of the time you had it spelt right, but a few times you slipped into Rudolphus :)

Over all, though, this was a very enjoyable story and not like anything I've read before, which I like. Good job!
jiangcheng chapter 1 . 10/26/2015
I loved this! I like Bellatrix! I mean, her insanity is awesome! But this was sad! I'm more than positive she made herself forget because she couldn't handle it! I wonder if Narcissa played along with Bellatrix so she wouldn't remember? The letter from Andromeda was just like damn. I think she chose Voldemort or her own safety over her daughter and that's what she wanted to forget. Anyway loved this! :)
The Bickering Kingdom chapter 1 . 10/25/2015
This was heartbreaking, really it was. It was good to see another side written about Bellatrix other than just killing people side.

I like the name Charlotte.

No SPaG issues that I could see.

This was a well written one shot, angsty but I love angsty so that's fine.
CUtopia chapter 1 . 10/19/2015
Wow, I really enjoyed reading this story, it was very well done! :)
I can totally see why Bellatrix would surpress the memory of her own daughter, having lost a baby could really destroy a person, especially when she longed for having one for so long...
Bellatrix really seemed to be in a bad condition, and obviously this was kind of giving her the last shove towards madness...
I saw a few small typos, but otherwise, everything was nicely done :)

I think it would be very possible that it was the loss of her child that drove Bellatrix mad. Whether directly or simply from all these remembrances (that may or may not have been obliviated), that sort of grief would send just about anyone into madness. You've done quite well with this.
xxCallMeAmyxx chapter 1 . 10/4/2015
GOD. GOD LYNN. The one story of yours that sticks out of my head is like this, with a stupid ending that makes me frustrated! God.

But in all seriousness, this rocked. I spotted no SPaG errors, kudos. I like the sense of mystery throughout this; because of your stories, I'm slowly becoming a mystery fan.

But it was confusing at some points. I suppose that's how it's supposed be...? Like the bloody door part. Where IS that? And what's up with Bella's husband? (completely forgot how to spell his name :P)

Something I think was not intentionly confusing is when she gets a paper cut, because one line, she's walking through the hallway and then she gets a paper cut from a book that just appeared to us? That was confusing to me.

I like the dynamic between Cissy and Bella, because I suppose in the books we think she doesn't care for anyone, but she has a heart. She's just like Lucius, trying to save her family, extended or not.

WHAT DID THE LETTER FROM ANDY SAY? This will annoy me now. I assume it's some sort or condolence letter, because she rembered what happened? But I just GOTTA know for sure!

Well that's all I have to complain about XD

See ya Nora!

What did she remember?! What did she remember?! Please...
NeonDomino chapter 1 . 9/30/2015
I feel so sorry for Bellatrix here. I would assume that she chose Voldemort over her daughter somehow, and maybe she doesn't remember because she was obliviated or something?

You've made me want to hug Bellatrix. How is this even possible?

Great story! :)

I want to know how she died!
