Hey,
          I loved the story, it has been such a long time since I've read a good fanfic which genuinely feels like the books. You've done a really good job at capturing the essence.
          
          I was wondering if you are going to update any time soon....
          I started reading without checking the last update date...just now realized that it hasn't been updated in two yrs(┬┬﹏┬┬)
          
          Anyways, I hope you continue and finish the story. I'm sure many people are looking forward to it(●'◡'●)

Hi there, I hope you r doing well and your year wasn't too stressful.
          
          Just wanted to ask if you are interested in continuing the story? Assuming that you r even active on wattpad anymore.

@anomaLous_Original @remymoony it's honestly been so long, extremely sorry for the late reply. I wrote Doorways back in 2020 and it's been 4 long years (wow) Whenever I open my drafts to write a new chapter it seems like I've hit a block.. maybe because of how much has changed since then.. I'm honestly so terribly sorry to keep you waiting.. Maybe this will be something that will be collecting dust on this site lol :(  Anyway,  i hope you all have had a good few years, have a great night/day <33

Hi hello, I’m going through my 3rd read-through of Doorways and I realized how there was always one thing that confused me—
          
          Why was Luna so pushy about interacting with young Sirius when they first got resorted in 1975? Okay maybe “pushy” isn’t the right word. But, she was constantly addressing him and staring at him during the entire conversation in the Great Hall. And yet I was never able to figure out WHY she was super insistent about speaking with him SPECIFICALLY.
          
          I think during my first 2 reads, I was confused but brushed it off as Luna being Luna. But now that I’m seeing that scene for the 3rd time, I felt like asking about it.

@Lizzie_Raylight hey! Sorry for the realllllyy late reply... I guess I just wanted to incorporate an exaggerated replay of Luna's interaction with Ron (when they met for the very first time in OoTP) in Doorways, but this time with Sirius.. it also struck me hilarious when Xenophilius lovegood was convinced Sirius was a singer, and I always wondered how Luna would've reacted to meeting Sirius for the first time ... So there was nothing besides just Luna being amusing, and making the tense situation ludicrous

The word I was looking for was “adamant”. I meant to ask “Why was Luna so ADAMANT about interacting with young Sirius etc etc” rather than “pushy”

Hi. I really loved your book 'Doorways'. It has to be one of the best Harry Potter fanfic I've ever read on  Wattpad. Your book deals with the time travel concept so delicately and even the writing is of top notch. So I was just wondering when you are going to update it because I'm dying of curiosity here.

@Anne_x26 hey, thank you so so much!! I can't promise the next update coz this year is quite an important year at school as far as education's concerned... But I'll try my best to update once I'm free.. thank you so much for reading tho! Have a great day

Hello! I just wanted to say that I absolutely LOVE “Doorways” and I recently decided to re-read it (just finished actually) and I had a question.
          
          And I guess this includes SPOILERS for “Doorways” so warning for anyone else that sees this.
          
          I’m not sure if you’ve every actually answered this before, but did Harry ever actually reciprocate Rhea’s feelings? Because there were a couple times in the story (specifically the flashbacks) where it felt like he did. But there was never a way for me to know since the flashbacks were always told from Rhea’s perspective. For example, there was the flashback of when Harry stops Rhea from drinking firewhiskey after her parents died. In that flashback, you had written how Ginny had an odd expression on her face after witnessing the way Harry behaved to Rhea crying. Which made me feel like she might have suspected that Harry may have felt more than friendship/familial love towards Rhea. OR during that little sequence before the flashbacks stopped where Harry mentioned that they (as in Harry and Rhea) always run out of time.
          
          Not that it would matter in the end since she’s now with Remus (which, btw, I ADORED how you had their relationship progress). Like. They’re so cute.
          
          But I’m just really curious about this.

Hi!! Firstly, thank you so, so much for taking the time to read and support doorways, it means the world to me. 
            
            No one's ever actually asked me this before haha. The short answer is: Harry always considered Rhea his best friend, nothing more. There MIGHT have been a time where he must’ve felt something more than platonic love towards her, but in the end it was always going to be Ginny.  
            
            I say ‘might’ because there is every chance he must’ve given it a thought, but quickly dismissed it in fear of jeopardizing their friendship. But really, it’s up to how you want to interpret it. Personally, with how you mentioned the last flashback scene (“we always seem to run out of time”) could’ve hinted that Harry did kinda reciprocate her feelings; it would’ve made it more tragic, because right from the start, their time together slipped like sand in an hourglass. So it really depends on what you think!
            
            (I'll admit initially I wanted to let Rhea and Harry hover cautiously around this concept, before realising that it wouldn't work out between them, but I decided against this xD)
            
            Again, thank you so much for taking the time to read my story and compose a message like this, it made my entire day. Stay safe and take care! ( @Lizzie_Raylight )
