Reviews For Deathly Hallows Blues

Hello, Ineke! I'm here for the arctic adventure with a little gift for you! And since I've been devouring Brooklin 99 recently (and absolutely adored it! Now I can understand why you were so fond of the show! :P) I've been meaning to read and review this little one-shot of yours ever since, so here I am! :D

Ahahah! Poor Jake! :P Honestly, Deathly Hallows is kind of rude... and if Jake is reacting like this now, what will he do with Dobby? Fred? Remus and Tonks??? I love that Amy was secretly amused by Jake's reaction, I would be too! Jake is so extra with his emotions and you showed it so well in this little glimpse you gave us of them! It's really lovely and funny! :D

I'm not sure what else to say (and since this review is rather short, I think I'll go check something else on your AP... I saw that you updated "All you need is positivity", so I suppose I should catch up with that as well...) except that this was a very entertaining read and that I really enjoyed it a lot! <3

Lovely work on this, my dear!

Big snowball hug,

Chiara

Ok, I know this is an older story BUT. You are rekindling my love of B99, so I must read this because it mashes up with HP. So yay! 

 

The fact that Jake and Amy canonically love HP is one of my favorite things ever. And to see a moment like this between them is really touching. Even though Jake is likely comically crying for effect on the show, Amy is so genuine with comforting him. Offering to bring in takeaway and get him oragnina <3 I was worried this was the Fred dying situation though and to see that it ISNT GAHHH. I can't even imagine how he would be there. 

 

But he's right. Totally rude to kill Hedwig and Mad Eye. And George's missing ear makes us love him even more. 

 

Such a sweet little one-shot of the sweetest couple to exist. 

 

Thanks for writing!

Ineke, 

Seasons Greetings~ Here to leave you a review for your wishlist and this one stuck out right away. I love B99 and I think you imparted the fandom experience of reading these books onto Jake so well lol. It's sweet how invested he is in something for Amy, and the way she cares for him in turn. I thought you did their characters real justice on par with the show!! It felt like a scene that could have come from it easily. Awesome job!

Hey Ineke! This story sounds like fun, I just have to check it out!

 

I just think it's so hilarious because we've all been there, haha. Crying over Deathly Hallows and just not even noticing when someone appears beside you! I love that Amy knows exactly what the matter is, haha.

 

"she wasn't quite sure yet which death he had just learned about." - YEP HAHA. The fact that he's only up to Hedwig is so sad, haha - he has no idea what's coming! Remember when we all thought Hedwig was going to be the worst of it? I know I probably shouldn't be laughing at the poor guy, but I'm very entertainied by this story!

 

You've written Jake's and Amy's voices and personalities so well! I could see them so clearly!

 

This is such a lovely little one-shot, Ineke! I really enjoyed it!

Ineke, hi!! Hope you're doing well!  Here to drop off a review for the Gryffinclaw Take Flight Review Event, and to spread general cheer because Brooklyn 99 is an elite show and everyone should watch it.  Reviewing as I go, super excited to get into this!

 

Awww, poor Jake.  He is honestly a representation of All Of Us after reading Deathly Hallows, but it's still sad :(  Right off the bat, you've drawn me into the story and I need to see what happens next.   You also have a very brief style of writing that's still very descriptive, y'know what I mean?  It's really well done!

 

LMAO she knows he can only be in this state because of one book and one only!  Also you've already shown her A+ detective skills in this excerpt, because she can deduce exactly which book Jake's on as well!  She goes through the process of looking at the clues of what book she knows he's gotten to, as well as which book One of the great things of Brooklyn 99 is that it never uses the abilities of the detectives as a joke - they all do their job very well.  And I love that you included that part of the spirit of the show in this little one-shot!!

 

Amy looked at him sympathetically, her hand moving up and down his back in an attempt to offer some comfort, but also trying not to say too much as she wasn’t quite sure yet which death he had just learned about. -lolol just relatable on so many levels!  Sometimes when I try to comfort people, I don't really know what they need me to comfort them about, yes, but the second level that this is relatable on is just the fact that there are so. many. deaths.  AND ALL OF THEM ARE SAD asdlkajsdkf

 

OHOHOHOOHO HE'S ONLY ON HEDWIG?!?!?!?  Ho boy, he's got another thing coming.  Good thing he's not a fast reader.  Maybe he'll have more time to process everything.

 

Your dialogue is so realistic though!  Everything seems like it could have come out of Amy and Jake's mouths!!

 

ORANGINA REFERENCE YESSSS!!!!

 

AND LOL THAT LAST LINE.  LIKE I SAID BEFORE, POOR JAKE.

 

This was such a sweet and well-written one-shot!!

 

Much love,

Raspberry <3

So I kind of never noticed this when first going through your page because I was looking for HP fanfic, but now I stumbled upon this again and read it and it is SO PERFECT?!!! :D I mean, where do I even begin? I LOVE B99 and even more so Jake Peralta, and remember squealing loudly when in the show it was mentioned he was reading HP because of Amy, and then this is just...I love how Amy is just ready and knows exactly what's up when she sees him sobbing, she's been through it all, she's a bookworm after all. And then she asks him about the death and it's....Hedwig. Like, yes, that was terrible but boy oh boy Jake has no idea what's coming for him.

 

The comment about him crying in the bathroom when Cedric died was very aww but it also made me snort with laughter, because that's such a Jake thing to do omg. And then he goes on a rant about all the deaths (yet) and Amy is just nodding in understanding, not betraying a single thing of a spoiler, good woman, and I could picture Jake totally going off on this tangent, and you finalized it with that perfect NOW MAD EYE?? THIS BOOKS IS RUDE!!! And it's just so bloody brilliant and I love it to bits. Reading this made me so happy daaamn, honestly I laughed out loud and also my heart swelled for Jake and Amy reading Harry Potter. Awesome stuff!!

Jake and Amy are the best! This is the first Brooklyn 99 fanfic I've ever read, and it's so sweet. I can absolutely see Peralta crying his eyes out over DH.

The last line here is my favorite in the whole fic and a perfect way to end it. "This book is so rude!" Lol. I can absolutely hear that in Peralta's voice. A nice touch of humor in a sweet fic.

Hey Ineke!  Here for the HC finale!

 

Brooklyn Nine Nine and Harry Potter combined is honestly all I need from life.  I really loved this as a missing moment from the series, too (or maybe something that actually happens, I've not seen series 6 yet) and your characterisation in this was just so good!

 

I loved the way that you had Amy deducing what was making Jake cry, sat in their apartment on his day off, at the start of this story.  She can't turn those detective abilities off, can she?

 

This took me back to when I first read Deathly Hallows, on the day it came out.  I kind of can't believe Jake hasn't had spoilers for any of this yet, but I sympathise completely.  I remember spending the whole day reading and sobbing within a couple of chapters when Hedwig was killed - I don't think it's possible not to cry at that.  Jake's reaction was completely proportionate - and I don't know how Amy managed not to react to him asking about whether more good people would die in the book - SO MANY JAKE, THERE'S GOING TO BE SO MUCH PAIN AND HEARTBREAK.

 

Jake's dialogue was so perfect in this, too - the passage towards the end when he starts talking so quickly about the deaths was so Jake that I could hear him speaking it, and I loved the way that you captured his and Amy's relationship, too.

 

Sian :)

 Hi, Ineke. I checked Brooklyn 99 trailer and stopped by. I think I could catch the mood of this fic.

 Amy has read all HP books and very understanding her boyfriend's emotional action and offered ordering some orangina...why orangina...his favorite? (maybe this is the spot we laugh)… talking of laughing, I laughed at the spot Jake seriously spoke out he was sad to know Hedwig was killed. Comparing with Vulture is funny. Even knowing George's loss of his ear sounds comical. His struggle not deciding which death should be the worst also sounds funny. And his last comment, "this book is so rude!" is hilarious!

 All in all, you captured each characteristics of Brooklyn 99 characters very well and you connected with HP fandom nicely and let us laugh! A fun plot!

Hi Ineke! :)

 

Here to stop by for some cute Jake x Amy things!! Okay so this is just ADORABLE AND I LOVE IT. I knew Jake was reading HP at some point in the show from screengrabs and such I'd seen online, so reading this lovely bit you've written about him finally getting to Deathly Hallows is just great. The touches about Amy putting her coat and keys away in the spots especially for those things speaks to your knowledge of her character! Also, Jake's strong emotional response to Hedwig's death is basically exactly how I felt about it when I read it for the first time when I was 11, so I totally get it. And, it's just so nice to have a guy expressing his emotions so openly like that (which I know his character is known for). Amy's foreknowledge of the book but also of what Jake is going to need so he can keep reading the book. Overall, I just love this whole thing and I definitely will be watching B99 sooner rather than later! :)

Hi Ineke!

 

Harry Potter and B99 in one story? This is everything I could’ve ever asked for, really. The line in the show where Amy was like “… was that a Harry Potter reference?” was one of my favourite moments on the show, so I LOVE that this fic is basically a follow up to that

 

And I love the idea of Amy coming home to Jake just crying his eyes out, and putting together that he’s reading Deathly Hallows. And you captured their dialogue and manner of speaking SO WELL, and I love the reference to the Vulture and to the original HP scene in the episode, haha. It’s just such a sweet moment between the two of them and they’ve got SUCH good chemistry, and then all the Harry Potter references mixed in are just absolutely perfect.

 

Also, Jake, honey, if you think Hedwig and Mad-Eye are bad, I’ve got some baaaaaaaaaad news for you, bud. (I'm sure Amy recognizes that as well, haha.)

 

This was such a fun, fluffy read - thanks for writing+sharing this!!

OH MY GOD YESSS.

 

So like Jake Peralta is definitely my favorite character on Brooklyn 99 and also at this point one of my favorite characters, period. (I have a type, don't judge me. :P) And obviously I like Harry Potter.

 

And you putting them together is literally just the best thing. I can 1000% see Jake having this reaction to both Harry Potter in general and the Deathly Hallows in particular - his reactions are always so visceral and he's always so obsessive, so of course he'd react to this the same way he reacts to literally everything. "You know you don't have to finish it" is probably something that literally didn't occur to him until she said it - once Jake starts obsessing, he just Does Not Stop.

 

You captured his stream-of-consciousness way of speaking particularly well, especially when he started talking about the book being amazing. One of my absolute favorite things about Jake is his ability to talk and talk and meander into weird places that are somehow super relatable and you did that here so well.

 

Also? I could literally hear Amy's voice and see her expression, and she is both perfectly on point and absolutely hilarious. I loved that you balanced her playful side with not taking it over the top.

 

Amazing job. I loved this.

I really like this, It's really funny. I can totally see Jake reacting this way when he read Deathly Hallows. I never knew I needed this. I think the characterization was spot on.

Ineke!

 

I DIDN'T KNOW I NEEDED THIS BUT I DID! so I know you're so passionate about this fandom and it really shows in your writing here! So I'm going to start with the title because I thought it was so clever! I love how it ties together the two fandom but also has a reference to Jake's mood! It works on so many levels!

 

The concept for this is amazing! I just love the idea of Jake reading Harry Potter! I think the characterisation is so spot on like Jake's humour is so clearly shown and I just love how silly this scene is but it's just wonderful. I feel like this could just be an opening credits for an episode I just love the bit when Jake is explaining why he has to finish because this is so perfectly written that I can imagine Andy Samberg's voice saying all of this. No spoilies. < love this!


I thought your Amy was also so well written because you've got a great balance of their relationship. Amy is often the one who grounds Jake but she also does indulge him too (this piece is perfect at showing that!) I like how you've also got her remembering how own Harry Potter experience. All of this is just ninenine perfection.<3

So, you already know that I love this. 

This is the first brooklyn nine nine fic I'd ever read and when you first sent it to me it was brilliant, but now with the changes and finally seeing it up here it's managed to become even better!

You have Jake and Amy's mannerisms down, I could really believe that this would happen between the two of them. 

This was a really lovely little fic that I've added to my list of b99 headcanons. 

NINE NINE!

YES GIRL YES! I was so excited when you said you were bringing us some HP action with a Brooklyn 99 fic! I feel like it's my birthday! Ugh, your characterization of the glory that is the Jake and Amy relationship is so perfect. I honestly can't even. I snorted at Jake weeping because he so would. and there she is. Sorta gentle spirit Amy being all concerning and sweet. I'm so here for it. Honestly this is so accurate and realistic it's not even funny. It definitely brings me back to my first read through and all the ugly crying. Anyway, I loved it and I hope you write us some more B99! (SERIOUSLY MY BIRTHDAY IS IN AUGUST THAT'S PLENTY OF TIME)
