Another good chapter.
As expected, nothing happened in the shower.
I assume we'll know in the next chapter if Draco is gone at this point or not. I rather expect a violent reaction from him when he learns he's suspended. Are they going to call the aurors in to arrest him?
Nice little mystery about those letters.
Looking forward to more,
Tom A.

A good look at the consequences of the last few chapters. The effects of the feedback are getting somewhat worrisome. That's the kind of thing that would make confiding in the Headmaster advisable, but I'm not at all certain that Harry will see it that way. This roller-coaster is getting to be quite an addictive ride.

Aegnor Alkarin, Earl of Unfinishedshire, bids thee welcome to AUland, where the Great Golden Monarch Ruskbyte rules with a fair but firm fist. The Monarch bids thee feast on his wry wit, his stunning segues, and his inimitably iniquitous depictions of sheer literary genius. He asks that thou dost leave comments on his writing, and give him pats on the back, but not to hesitate to give constructive criticism. The Golden Monarch also wishes to thank you for reading his wonderful pieces of writing, and hope that you come again sometime.

this is a thoroughly enjoyable story - in the original and this tighter version. I am looking forward eagerly to each new chapter.

I totally love this story, though I am a bit confused as to why it is behind the one you posted at ff.net. Anyway, I look forward to the next new chapter.

I never get this lucky!
Late Thursday night I grabbed chapters 1-14 and started reading. A few hours later I came to the end of chapter 14 and was horrified at the predicament Hermione was in and... no more chapters. I was in quite a state.
Out of sheer desperation I went back online and lo and behold, you had added chapters 15 and 16 while I was reading. Thank goodness! Like I said, I never get that lucky.
Great story. The rescue was handled brilliantly and I suppose it's a good thing they didn't get away without something bad happening. I'm glad Harry and Ron talked things out and that Harry's words seem to have triggered that maturity we all know Ron has hidden away in there somewhere. It's touching to see the tenderness Harry has for Luna because of the memories he's seen. Her frank nature extending to nakedness among friends yields hilarious results. I can't wait until she works up the nerve to talk to Ginny. I'm such an old softy...
I'll be hanging on waiting to see how everything resolves. Keep up the fantastic work.

Just checking here to see how far it's been updating - crossing fingers for chapter 19, you know :-) - I have read this before on ff.net. While I think Harry is overdoing the angst and self-recrimination thing a bit (DEs deserve everything they get), he IS only 16, and it was a very touching scene.
I'd totally forgotten until I re-read your story today about the dangling plot thread of the Ministry discovering that Harry had cast an unforgivable. I'm wondering if that's going to be used anywhere coming up. Maybe - hopefully - after Harry has gained control of the Prophet?
Great story, I hope your real life allows you to finish it!

AWESOME! Just finished catching up (Did you know that the E-mail alert systems is only sending alerts for about 1 story in 5?) Excellent work, the inpromptu councilling session and the...errm... Improvised shower... Were easily my favorite parts, Pretty funny how Luna acts and reacts though.
Keep up the excellent work!

OK, You done good! Hermione's rescue was really well done! Harry is furious, and yet holds himself in check long enough to keep himself from doing anything stupid.(er) I liked the no-quarter action at the Grangers home, although I really can't understand how they were able to escape the scene. Yes, it does take time for the police to show up, but the neighbor's surely would have seen Doctors Granger leave. As you indicated, Machine gun fire is rather distinctive.(I know. It's been directed towards me too often.) I assume the Obliviators had a hand there, but who contacted the ministry?
Why is Amilia Bones so charged up? Being as the dead Death Eaters were all wearing club uniforms, and ol' Fudgy isn't in the picture anymore, I'd think she'd be happy as a pig in slop that she doesn't have to deal with them. Of course, Harry's treatment of the oh-so-innocent (NOT!) Drakey, likely would have raised her eyebrows...a little...maybe.
Hermione's emergency surgery was well written. She's damn lucky nothing vital was hit. I traced the possible locations of such an injury. There ain't one. Abdominal torso, the knife would have punctured the intestines stomach spleen pancreas, liver gall bladder duodenum or either kidney. Thoracic torso, either lung and or heart. Sorry. In addition, the descending aorta would have gotten in the way. I really liked the disarming of the hidden traps on the dagger. Very high tension. Just like a bomb. (Thank all the gods ther are I only had to do that once!)
All this and Harry is still the same shy and
3uncertain boy who desperately wants to be accepted for what he is, not his image. nicely done. The talk with Ron after Harry's cathartic meltdown shows a side to him I usually don't show in my stories (except one). He understands why. he doesn't like it, but he understands. It seems our little Ronnikins is growing up.
Luna is a joy to read. I love the innocent yet not, innocent air you've given her, especially the *infamous* shower scene. Heh heh heh! Imagine what would happen if Harry would link her up with the unheavenly twins in this timeline, well before necessary. As always, I eagerly await the next posting. Alorkin

Did Hermione's parents get into HQ, and what are you going to do with the orther two girls. Harry has not gone to his godfather's will reading, (this was or is a good chapter by the way)are you going to have Harry and Hermione get married. If so why not marry Harry off to Ginny and Luna as well.

this are two very good chapters. well written action and superp character work. I know its worth waiting for the next chapters, make it quick, please.
Evan Mayerle posted a comment on Friday 24th March 2006 4:58pm
Very well written combat scenes and a good example of the survival of -any- battle plan; i.e. "No battle plan survives contact with the enemy, that's why they're called 'the enemy'!"

*Snicker* That ending is great comedy relief after the rest of this chapter. Beautiful!!
