    I get ticked when everyone writes the Death Eaters as a bunch of weak pricks too. I know that they are mostly sucsessful because of the terror and all that but some of them have to be skilled. At least the inner-circle has to be able to dual. I mean, Rockwood was an unspeakable... he should definitely be able to dual.

    Then take into consideration that mostly all of them are Pureblooded (like it should be) and have been immersed in Magic since early childhood, it honestly has to have had some effect, such as more knowledge of the theroy and a wider veriaty of Magicks. Then for the ones that are Pure knowing how to duel is essential as it's a tradition as well as for there dueling compertitions held...Fuckin Rowling!

    This one needs to go. It's a post-HBP Indy! fic, and it's 23k words worth of WTF. Harry teaches himself occlumency through meditation, basically demands to teach at Hogwarts and lead the Order, and there's a very confusing fight at the Burrow.

    This is from a letter that Ron sends Harry before he leaves Privet Dr:

    Er, way to be encouraging, Ron. I don't think I've ever seen one of the trio tell Harry he's got no chance so bluntly.

    At any rate, even the author thinks this story sucks. From his abandonment note:

    Straight from the horse's mouth. 1/5

    So there's 6 chapters, a chapter note, and seemingly abandoned.

    I liked the 1st part, not so much the 2nd. Let us begin to read.

    WTF Moment #1: Harry taught himself Occlumency.

    WTF Moment #2: Charmed Notebooks

    WTF Moment #3: Harry becomes the Transfiguration Teacher.

    This is all in the first chapter folks.

    WTF Moment #4: Harry conjuring a Phoenix with a wave of a wand.

    WTF Moment #5: Voldemort being worried about the duel with Harry when Death Eaters attack the Burrow.

    WTF Moment #6: Ron calling Hermione "Mione"

    WTF Moment #7: (This)
    WTF Moment #8:
    WTF Moment #9:
    Why the hell is Harry going for the dramatics?

    WTF Moment #10:
    WTF Moment #11:
    Fucking lying of an author trying to justify Harry's "genius" level now.

    WTF Moment #12:
    Holy plot device Batman! A book that he needs at the exact right moment!

    WTF Moment #13:
    Nobody else calls their professor by their first name. Poor excuse for humor.

    WTF Moment #14:
    Harry being made Head of Slytherin House while Slughorn is Head of Gryffindor House does really make no sense unless Harry thinks he can prevent something by being the HoH.

    At least Harry lost though.

    WTF Moment #15:
    For once, I agree with the author. He/she might of as well had deleted this story however.

    1/5.
