    Damn right it hasn't. And the new chapter didn't help its cause. Once upon a time this and Caer Azkaban seemed like a neat new take on Azkaban stories.

    But if either one of those were submitted for review today, they'd be laughed out out of the house. Like others have said, Bellatrix is so OOC that she bears no resemblance whatsoever to her character in the books.

    This story isn't terrible, but it's hard to justify this being in the library. It was first submitted in 2005, and things have changed since then. What's the DLP policy on removing stories from the library?

    If it's 3 stars, it goes to the Bin. If it's 4 stars, it goes in the Category recommended. If it's 1 or 2 stars, it'll no doubt be deleted.

    the story although interesting and consists one of my favorite pairing HP/BB, has been running for 4 years and still not finished.
    I just do not have that kind of patience for waiting for each chapters

    Holy fucking hell. Waking up and seeing an unreadable burp like this makes me -_- Very much so. Go buy yourself a shift key. And an entire bag of commas and fullstops. Some apostrophes would be cool also ... that is, you do know what all those are, right?

    I'm not in the mood to decipher what you could've meant (especially since I'm almost certain what you're trying to ask still wouldn't make sense), so here's a generic answer: Yes, it's being updated again, right, the link is still on the first page, no, the fic isn't all that great.

    Pick what you need, if it didn't answer your question then write a goddamn question (hint: it ends with a question mark).

    I give it a 2/5, initially the story had a great pace, but then it kept on expanding more and more until i got confused about the whole situation.

    Harry's acting illogically, irrationally, and he's too emotional.

    And i found that it had a very similar plot (almost) with lord caer of azkaban.

    Bellatrix is too out of character, i want to see her insane side acting up once in a while. seriously, a pregnant Bellatrix Lestrange?
