    started reading this story, loved it, but as i got more and more into it i started to hate it. I just don't like first year harry that follows most of the same plot as ps/ss, also, i just really don't like the authors writing style..

    UPDATED!!

    Been a while. First half is okay, but the second half de-volves into a Quidditch extravaganza with excessive and unnecessary description. Eh. Its all-right, and its better than it was.

    That said, the whole "Lady Faire" thing kind of sucked, but it goes some way to explain Canon Ginny's behavior. Could be better but whatever. I didn't like the second half, thought the first half was good.

    P.S. THis needs to go into the A.U. section

    Is it just me, or does it seem like its just a rewrite of Sorcerers Stone only without Ron, with Neville and Tracey and from a Hufflepuff view-point

    That and the Quidditch felt like filler.

    Read the update: I've got mixed feelings.

    Give me 24 hours or so and I'll have better words

    meh, got to agree with you people here, it had alot of proise but it feels like alot of filler probably waiting till 4th year for the triwizard tournament. Will probably keep on reading it out of curiosity but seems to be going downhill for me.

    I was quite impressed with the whole life debt/lady fair explanation, and I fully agree with the statement that that might have been why cannon Ginny acted the way she did in the books. I just wonder if the whole life debt concept is backed by magic or if its just a honor thing. In cannon it seams to be honor based. Just look at cannon wormtail he owed a life debt to harry and he still turned around and screwed him over with the whole "Let's give Voldimort and new body" thing.

    If I'm wrong, then oh well.

    I personally think that the life debts need to be excepted by both parties for it to become magically binding contract. And we all can understand how cannon Harry doesn't like having controll over someoneelses life.

    Ack .... talking too .... much .... thinking .... way too much .... into this.
