    It seemed kind of odd that he didn't immediately forgive Hermione. I mean, he usually does. And especially after he is complaining, waiting for some friend to believe he is innocent.

    I would too recomend reading this. It is one of the best super Harry fics out there though lately i have lost interest - but not enough to not read an update when i'm bored. I really don't know what it is about this that I like - it mystifies me quite a lot. hmmm.. whatever, anyway its worth a try.

    This is a great story, and I'm usually not into the whole Harry/Bellatrix stories, but it's very well written. I just wish it would update soon....

    I know...It hasn't been updated for a while, and I still am waiting for it to hurry up.
    Nice avatar Galleon.

    I think everyone is right about the whole whining Harry thing, but it's still a good story in my opinion. Harry having kids.....yeah, it's kind of disturbing, but you tend to see that Harry acts more like he's 25 than 16 in these type of stories. You get used to it after a while. I mean it's not nearly as bad as some of the other stories I've seen out there. (Snape/Hermione)......yeah.....those pairings tend to creep me out. *shudders* The story is a 7 or 8 out of 10 in my opinion.

    And thanx for the comment on the avatar apocalypsemeow. :)

    Yeah, it's like a lot of fics in the respect that it starts out with quite a good idea and then stops going anywhere. Not to mention, with the current update schedule of one per blue moon, it really is going nowhere.

    And Bellatrix is so OOC it isn't even funny. She's about as dark as a kitten.

    Agrees with Tinder.

    Bellatrix caught my attention already in GoF because she had this dark selfassured image even though she'd just been sentanced to Azkaban, and to have her turn to the all goody doer with innocents and pureness to rival Jesus was kinda hacking on me annoyingly for a while. But i could stand it as the story was interesting, but now -it has been said - bland would be my favored word.

    No one ever keeps Bellatrix in character its always 'Wedding contract' this and 'Imperious curse' that.

    I've never seen a in character Bellatrix paired with Harry that wasn't a Harry/Many fic. (And in those fics she only gets a couple of line anyweay.)

    The only thing keeping me reading this fic is the Polairix(sp?) stuff.

    Too true, and it sadly seems to apply to Narcissa as well.

    First few chapters of Dark Syaoran's fic 'Darkness Reigns Supreme' YAY. Although it looks like it's going to be a Harry/Luna or something, the first three chapters of that fic are better than the whole of most I-was-under-imperius-all-along-and-actually-I'm-really-nice Harry/Bellatrix stories.

    I keep reading it because it was the first H/B story and Azkaban!Harry story I read, and I pretty much liked it. I don't think that Harry is ever paired with an IC Bella because a)she pretty much murdered Sirius, and b) she her IC is evil/dark...She would probably only be paired (IC) with Harry if he went dark/joined Voldemort/Evil, and forgave her. Or, used her as his bitch.

    I loved it at first but in recent chapters it has slowed down significantly! BORING.

    i speak to the author in YIM some times, he is writing the next chapter, but he is in college irl and he has to concentrate on the updates for his professors as he puts it rather than on updates for the fic.

    It's better than most 'Azkaban Harry' stories I've read. Bella is OOC, but then again, how the hell do you expect to get them to pair up!

    Shabranigdo wonders whether this fic has been abandoned. It has not been updated in a while. Still, it is a god fic. It was actually the first HP/BB fic that He read. The only complaint that this Dark Lord has is this: Lord Silvere is strictly against Dark!Harry and Evil!Harry. Hre believes it cliche.

    if you read up the replies a little you would see my post saying that the fic isn't abandoned but the guy is in University, and has to spend his time updating his profs rather than the fic.

    i liked this although it has been going down the tubes somewhat, its almost like they are running out of ideas lately and dont know what to do. Very readable though, which to be honest makes a change.
