Mirror Crack’d
16 ReviewsThis is my response to a challenge offered by Cloneserpents to tell the story of the displaced canon-ish Harry from his wonderfully goofy/smutty story “Crack’d Mirror.” If you’ve not seen ...

Ah, a most worthy response to the challenge. This is one i'd really like to read the rest of. The skewed personalities were just right to be hilarious and those girls trying to teach Harry how to be an utter bastard would truly be a great read.
Thanks.

Excellent, I love the original story and this makes a nice complement to it. I really enjoyed what you have so far, I hope you decide to make it a full story. -

Great reflection on Crack'd Mirror.
I do hope you will continue to show this Harry's journey through his own personal looking glass. -

Definitely a worthy piece, I do hope you continue this one. I especially liked Harry's reason for being ashamed of his manhood...the only plausible explanation, under the circumstances.
Looking forward to more (whether or not it's this).Author's response
- It just occurred to be that for a kid as sheltered (or perhaps isolated would be a better trem) as Harry was, being told he was 'hung like a hippogryff' would be scarring... -

Excellent! A worthy "mirror" to a 'breathtaking' story.
On another note, I don't mind other folks' drabble collections too much, but I don't like "The Big Box of Silliness". The ideas are too good for a drabble collection!! I'd much prefer to see a long, descriptive list of your one-shots (or two-shots or three-shots...).
Format notwithstanding, I l love your writing. Thanks for doing so! -

I love this> As a 'trekkie' I was waiting for this side of the Mirror,I hope you add to this-- in the shows it was fun to see the 'normal' people try to fit in. Hopefully this could become another 'Chance Meeting' -

-chuckle- I loved it and it's going to be interesting for this "swapped" Harry to grow into what his alternate was, though with a few twists to make life real interesting for all concerned. I can easily see him adopting enough to work well in this environment while keeping the better aspects of his nature for his "girls".Author's response
- I've got some ideas to build on Sean's description of the alternate Tom Riddle... You might call him a Paisley Lord... -

More please! I think you've got a really good handle on mirror-Hermione and mirror-Luna, and I'd love to see where you would carry this from here. -

Having twins do naughty things to you would be a wonderful way to wake up in the morning. If only things like that happened in real life. Sigh. Of course, if that sort of thing did happen in real, I wouldn’t know what the hell to do with them. The pressure would be too much for me to handle. That or I'd have a fatal heart attack right the moment after waking up and seeing the twins.
I mentioned before that having an aggressive Hermione and Luna are interesting. I’ll have to work it into the story somehow. Perhaps I’ll have Harry say something along the lines of “You know, I prefer you over the Hermione from my home reality.”
“Really, why is that?” the brunette asked.
“Well, the other versions of you and Luna like to hold knifes to my other harem girls, it’s really a mood killer.”
I laughed at Hermione’s short hair reference (frames her face) and how it mirrored my story.
Ooo, another Star Trek reference besides the title. Good one.
I like the concept of Evil-Hermione and Evil-Luna training Harry. I can see them now teaching him the intricacies of dark magic and its everyday uses. Perhaps they can teach him on a reward structure, such as “If you can cast the Cruciatus properly, I’ll let you bugger Luna tonight.” or “The Killing Curse is rather difficult. Therefore, if you can cast it before the hour’s up, we’ll let you watch all of your harem girls during their after supper orgy.”
Very nice, thanks for writing it.

- What? You don't have a pair of teen aged twins waking you up like that every morning?
- They only do the knife thing when they need to establish a little discipline... Or if they're in a bad mood...
- I'm planning on an alternative Tonks perving on Hermione's titantic boobies.
- Hermione and Luna aren't evil, no more than the transplanted Harry is. They're just dealing with the circumstances they find themselves in... -

Ya know... you could be the one to right a "Hot Fuzz" xover with HP. After all, the villains in Hot Fuzz chant "The Greater Good" and if Harry happened to be in retirement a few years after beating Voldie and sees men in black cloaks terrorizing the town of Wells... well, he might be a bit peeved. And it would cross over nicely. And be funny. "Crusty jugglers!"
