You're right, I should really have remembered that. Any chance that came from a real source? Or did someone make it up.

Although canon indirectly contradicts it by making a note to burn the paper after Harry reads it. If that wiki quote was true I guess that would be unnecessary.

 

This is what HPL has to say:

So the basic logic is that unless the Secret Keeper told you the whereabouts of [XYZ] location, you can't find it.

But in OotP we have Moody showing Harry a piece of paper with Grimmauld's address and that was enough.

It has to be said though that Moody burned it right after Harry memorized it. I can't really think of a plausible reason why on earth would anyone allow Mundungus Fletcher to keep a piece of paper with the address.

 

That's because the paper in OoTP was written by Dumbledore, who was the secret keeper.

And if Dumbledore trusted Dung enough to give him Harry protection duty, he would probably trust him to memorize a piece of paper and burn it as well.

 

Huh, didn't know that. Is there a more reliable, well, wiki of information? Sorry about taking this off topic a bit.

 

Nothing in wiki form. The Harry Potter Lexicon is the most realible non-official source for canonical information.

 

Is anyone else following The Amplitude, Frequency and Resistance of the Soul Bond? It updated yesterday.

It is kinda terrible (the latest update had at least a dozen grammar errors), but at the same time it makes me laugh out loud at least twice every chapter. I've never been quite sure what to make of this fic.

 

I've happened across that fanfic in the past and absolutely loved it.

Why? Because it's got the best Dumbledore. Seriously, you can't help but love him.

He's got just the right tone of competence and casual, cheerful insanity I'd always expected of him.

 

Damn it, I wanted to try it after Odran's comments but I'm still touched by H/G bitterness. I wish I could enjoy everything...

 

I am not sure why this, of all things, is supposed to be problem. They are describing fictional court. In fact it is fairly plausible that court system of magical UK is horrific mishmash of how Muggle one works, imagination of how Muggle one works and other additions.

And no matter what kind of court will be invented it is unlikely to be stranger than some real courts.

 

Except for the fact HP legal proceedings in most fanfics consist of:

-Enter court
-Bones is judge
-Demand Veritiserum
-Immediately cleared of all charges
-Shit on Fudge/Dumbledore for arranging the farce by citing an ancient law that everyone knows but they forgot.

They are horrendously flawed trials that have no proper procedure and are just dumb.

 

In other words it is on the same level as Harry's trial in OotP.

 

The real problems here are repetitions from other stories and Veritaserum/Pensieves solving all problems ("are just dumb").

"have no proper procedure" is not a real issue.

For example one of the best trial stories in literature (The Trial by Franz Kafka) also had procedure that can not be considered as proper.

 

Of Bare Feet and Blibbering Humdingers

Non-epilogue compliant. Four years after the war ends, Ron quits the aurors and moves back in with his parents. Luna has returned from her world travels, older, wiser and now her owl has low self-esteem. Oh, and Harry finds the whole thing hilarious. A Ron/Luna fic because it's weirdly perfect.

Sort of decent-ish Ron/Luna romance. The writing and characterizations are far from amazing, but I've been looking for a multi-chapter Ron/Luna fic for quite some time now, and this isn't too bad. 28k words, updates quite regularly.

 

Limpieza de Sangre

By: TheEndless7

Harry Potter always knew he'd have to fight in a Wizarding War, but he'd always thought it would be after school, and not after winning the Triwizard Tournament. Worse still, he never thought he'd understand both sides of the conflict. AU with a Female Voldemort.

I realize "Endless7" isn't a favorite on DLP but seeing as this is a femVoldemort fic I figured it was worth looking at. Writing is good though it needs another chapter or two before it can be well judged.

 

You forgot to provide a link: Limpieza de Sangre

 

Whoops. Sorry about that.

Something of an odd fic. Harry in it is basically an unlikable dickhead. He's the exact opposite of what you'd want a protagonist to be - completely uninterested in adventure or strange happenings. He prefers to hide in the library, keep his head down, and not talk to anyone. It isn't exactly fair to hold that against the story, as it's pretty obvious it's what the author was trying to accomplish by writing it, but it's a pretty horrible portrayal of Harry. He might as well not even be there.

That said, I've found it to be a somewhat interesting take on the character, and I kind of found myself kind of liking it a little bit.

I'm not putting it up for review, simply because I don't like it all that much. However, I do think it's worth a read, if you have nothing better to do.

It's the only one of it's kind and made me laugh a bit. Harry Potter/Futurama crossover.
