loved it =)
looking forward to reading the sequel!
Author's Response: Hi again! So glad you liked The Beginnings of a Death Eater. Have you read the sequel on Occlumency? I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. :P

This was a beautiful little story, and I very much enjoyed seeing another side of Lucius for once.
Thank you for writing and sharing this story.
Author's Response: Thank you for reading, and I hope you go back to reading "I, Too, Shall Follow". I personally think it is much better, and my favorite of all I've written.

Oh, no! Little Niki! How dare you killing off a baby?
Author's Response: I know, evil me! No mention was ever made of Lucius having any other family, and I wanted a compelling reason for him to despise muggles. I hated to do it.

As a huge Severus fan, I cannot help but love the last lines. Just as much as I loved the rest of the chapter. You made me feel very sorry for Lucius.
Author's Response: It is interesting to see Sev as a little kid, yet so serious and knowledgeable. I feel bad for Lucius, too--but he really is a scamp, lol.

Creepy, creepy Bella. Got to love her!
Author's Response: Hehehe--I know what you mean. Bella is creepy and scary, but compelling to read. I loved writing her.

Hehe, good thing I'm out of tea. Might just have snorted it all over the desk. Gilderoy! haha
Nice theory about why Elieen Prince ran off to marry a Muggle!
Author's Response: You know me, I like to make logical reasons for what the characters do--so Eileen had to have a compelling reason to leave. And Gilderoy--that was just candy thrown in for fun.

“I thought men liked to be spanked.” Mehehe!! Another one for the list.
Great chapter. Lucius and Narcissa are very cute together. It's nice to read them (especially Lucius) in that way for a change.
I am amazed Severus dared to invite anyone to his house. 10 points to Slytherin for Lucius' punch, btw.
Author's Response: LOL--thanks, I do try to come up with inventive yet catchy lines. I love stories where Narcissa and Lucius really, seriously love each other. So I wrote one! Amen, it is good to have stories where Lucius isn't portrayed as some sort of monster. :P

I forgot Gilderoy might have attended school with the rest. Hilarious, how you dealt with this!
Author's Response: Thanks! I love putting humor in, esp. when so much drama can be overwhelming. And Gilderoy just lends himself to it. :P

If I were Lucius, I wouldn't trust Bella. At. All.
Author's Response: Lucius doesn't really trust Bella, he just feels boxed in at times. He learns over time that she absolutely can not be trusted, but since she's Narcissa's sister, he can't be totally awful to her as he'd like to be. :P

That was a very touching scene between Abraxas and Lucius.
And I love how you write the interaction between Voldemort and Bella. She's such a brat.
Author's Response: Thank you. Abraxas may be a hard ass, but he loves his son very much. He just doesn't know how to be a good father, never having had a model. Voldy and Bella scenes were always the most fun to write, since they're both kind of nuts, haha.

The mental state Lucius is in, I can only hope that he doesn't snap and turn on his father.
I must say, I very much like your story. It's a new approach on Lucius and just as plausible as any other.
Now, if you don't hear from me over the next weeks, don't worry, I have NOT abandoned your story. I'm just on holidays.
Author's Response:
Lucius is indeed in a bad place--literally. Once Abraxas is through with him, he won't have the ability to turn on him. :(
Thank you, I'm so glad you like seeing an alternative POV about Lucius. We only see him as a cardboard person in JKR's works (and from Harry's POV). But I don't see him as a killer or rapist or any of those awful things most authors do to him. Yes, he's greedy for power in society, and he's prejudiced, but I don't think he's evil.
I do hope you stop in from time to time over holidays and read and review!

O-oh! Asking Bella for a "favour". Man, Lucius must be desperate.
And we have a new sentence for the favourite sentence list: "Never take shoes off a Muggle you kill."
Author's Response: As you read my works, I think you may accumulate a few more cool favorite sentences, lol. I appreciate your telling me, it makes me glad to know which things ppl like. And yes, Lucius was desperate to ask Bella for a favor. You'll see later how she reacts when she finds out 'daddy' discovered his deception. :P

Your Black sisters are scary :)
Author's Response: Hahaha--yeah, my Black sisters are pretty scary. Don't want to mess with either one, for different reasons. :P

I was kind of afraid Voldemort would call for Lucius during the party. Abraxas wouldn't have liked that, I think.
Author's Response: Voldemort has little use for Lucius yet, except to try training him to torture. You're right, Abraxas wouldn't have liked it one bit if Lucius was called away during his party.

Got to love your Black sisters. Narcissa is wonderfully feisty, and Bella is just as bat-shit crazy as she is supposed to be. And creepy ;)
Author's Response: I like writing feisty Narcissa...she has tamed down in my other stories; I suppose kids do that to you. And Bella--I LOVE writing her. She is, as you say, "bat-shit crazy", which makes for wonderful dialogue and great chemistry between her and Lucius. Thank you so much for the reviews!

“Father, I’d sooner pluck out my eyes and ram a rod through my brain than cavort with her.” This sentence is going straight to my list of favourite fan fic sentences!
Author's Response: I love that line, too! Every so often I come up with lines I love, and when I re-read them in editing I always smile. Thanks for telling me you liked it!
Date: 07/17/2010 07:15 am Title: Chapter 4
I can't believe it! You've managed to awake my sympathies for Lucius! :)
Author's Response: Hehehehe. I have had ppl read this story who absolutely hated Lucius, and came away liking him. Join the crowd, my pretty, haha.

Oh, yeah, Cissy girl! HURT HIM!! Oh how I love it when Sirius gets his butt kicked, and other body parts :) And I very much enjoy reading your version of Lucius. In the story I am writing, he is a Class A prick, and it is nice to see another side of him. /M (PS: Will read this story first before going back to the one you're posting on Occlumency. Just so you won't think I've abandoned it.)
Author's Response: I love to hurt Sirius! I used to like him, before I found out the way he'd treated Snape so badly. And he had the gall to act all high and mighty like he was a saint and Severus (Snivellus) was the evil git! I have read a lot of stories where Lucius is a prick; I thought it was time to show that maybe he's not--after all, we only saw very little of him, and only from the Gryffindor perspective (they think ALL Slytherins are evil). I prefer to think Lucius shows one face at home, another to the world. :P

Oh my. This is a new turn on how Lucius became a Death Eater. For love. Who would have thought?
Author's Response: Yes, I thought Lucius would have to have a good reason for becoming a DE (everyone always makes it for power, because he's evil, because his dad is a DE, etc.) I like to buck the trend! Throughout history, look what men have done for women. :P
Date: 07/14/2010 05:29 pm Title: Chapter 1
You see, I always to what I am told and came to read this story. Like it a lot so far :)
Author's Response: I'm glad you like it. The next two chapters are up!
