    If that's not a troll fic, than nothing is. That thing is more obviously a troll-fic then the Harry Potter communist one.

    You're rather optimistic on the stupidity of people.

    Yes, a chance of this being a troll is very high, but at the same time there's a small chance that this is exactly what it says on the tin.

    This tiny chance is actually what makes reading the story funny, because otherwise we'd be entirely too much in on the joke.

    That's the best fanfic I've ever seen.

    Incorrect usage of words, using ellipses as a 'cliffhanger', not using capital letters

    Would anyone care to take a peek into this? I'd rather not risk my sanity.

    Once more unto the breach...

    OH MY GOD.

    Scroll down to the bolded text where Harry sees the Goblin's file on him or whatever... I don't think I could write a parody of that if I tried. Freakin' Poe's Law.

    I read it as a parody. Makes it bearable.

    I now want to read a fic where Harry gets 'saved' by the goblins, he believes them and then signs a whole heap of contracts. Only the contracts have nothing to do with an inheritance and Harry just sold himself into slavery to the goblins.

    Hmmm... Ok.

    ARGHAHAHAHAHA! I'm convinced the author just read an entire pet peeves thread and decided to fuck with us XD.

    It's been written, it's either in the recycling bin or the WBA.

    I read that thinking you were doing a parody, and didn't believe you at the end until I searched it myself :facepalm

    The first two sentence alone make me cringe.

    What the flying fuck is that supposed to be? God. This reminds me of how long it's been since I tried browsing FF.net.

    Just scrolled randomly through the first chapter. That's all I really need to know about the story beside the summary.

    Not brave enough to click this one. My favorite phrase in the summary is the "great battle that's about to come up."

    "Hey, Harry, want to go out this weekend?" asked Cho.

    "No, I can't. Something came up," said Harry. "It's, like, a great battle or something."

    Just out of curiosity, is Kachina even a name?
