    A fic i haven't seen posted here, thought it was quite good as well. Powerful harry, independent and also in training. More humor then any other Genre though.

    I read this ages ago. I cant even remember most of it. It was pretty funny but I didnt like how she went back to Malfoy in the end.

    Bah. This shits boring. Harry feels all bad for Malfoy breaking up with Gin-slut? He's too nice. I woulda bitch slapped Ron if he ignored me to stare at Hermione all day like that.

    *Sigh* I kept reading a bit, Jesus, Pansy is a major slut and Harry falls for her?

    Huh. I'm not really sure why this is in Humor/Parody. I read half of it, and there's not a single laugh to be had. The focus is solely on Harry vs. Draco in quidditch and Harry becoming close to Pansy while they serve detention together. There's a prank war, but even that isn't played for laughs.

    I'd say that 'General' or 'Romance' is more appropriate, but I don't think this belongs in the library at all. It's flat-out boring.

    2/5

    I agree about the lack of humor; it's too dark and cynical to live there.

    I read this awhile back--it's a very old piece for HP fanfiction, if I remember right--and feel it's "almost recommended" if put into context with the times, when even contemplating such a pairing was the height of avant garde. Compared with modern pieces, where Harry/Pansy is no longer taboo and Harry/Slytherin is the new fad, it's truly nothing special. I'll probably give it a 3/5 because I think it's closer to 2.5/5 and my vote will average out to that with Darklordmike's ballot.

    It was okay. Barely even interesting. A few parts here and there stand out, but over-all this is a forgettable piece that barely makes the grade. 3.5/5
