    the author is obviously smart, some of his/her original spells are good, the story is pretty well written also, worth a read..

    The idea for the sorting hat isn't amazingly original but I liked how he wrote out the though process leading up to it. It wasn't just 'Oh of course it's the sorting hat' he actually slowly built up the thought. I am also amazingly please he killed of the ginny romance.
    I question if he will kill of the sorting hat when Harry removes the Horcrux.
    Great fic though, one of the best post HBP.

    Yes quite the good chapter, but i thought Dippit was the Headmaster while Riddle was going through school? It matters not to your plot line as the sorting hat has been chosen and as that is always there...just thought i'd find out though? I'm really starting to love this fic, the only one after the dibacle with HBP thats worth the time to get into...coodose. (sp?)

    *snort* Besides wishing he had truely slapped her with the diary, I really like this story. You have a way of writing non-cliche and points out obvious canon most people miss. :) Keep it up!

    Does it ever say when Dumbledore took over from Dippit? I couldnt find a date so I had Dippit retire after the Chamber of Secrets incident which happened during Riddle's Sixth Year. Therefore Dumbledore is Headmaster during his last year.

    I might have to explain that since I'm sure more people will pick up on it. *frowns* I bet if I go over to HP Lexicon I'll find out the real date in which he took over the school... why didnt I look there before... hrmm.

    c. Y-10 (1970 or early 1971)

    Main Charactersblank spaceHogwartsblank space Albus Dumbledore becomes headmaster of Hogwarts

    "It seemed impossible that I would be able to come to Hogwarts. Other parents weren't likely to want their children exposed to me.
    "But then Dumbledore became Headmaster, and he was sympathetic. He said that as long as we took certain precautions, there was no reason I shouldn't come to school...."

    Dumbledore apparently became headmaster shortly before Lupin came to Hogwarts.


    According to lexicon, but they figure that date out by one quick aside from Lupin. Regardless you could explain it as Dippet was in the process of helping with the war, and it left Dumbles using his office as he was at the school more often, until the final battle with Grindel

    When was Grinnie defeated though? I have to find that out first. Hopefully it wasnt before and I think it was.

    If not, who says Dippit cant go on a holiday. Since Dumbledore was probably Deputy Headmaster, he stood in for a full year... *nods*

    Sorry, but I thought the Sorting Hat was the Horcrux, so you can't really remove the Horcrux from it. You have to destroy it.

    Anyways, great chapter, I liked the conversation with Dumbledore greatly.

    I liked this chapter, especially your nonjon-like Dumbledore. Sorting hat as a Horracrux is an old idea, but it's not like it matters, seeing how this is only the second post-HBP story I've ever liked.

    Very impressive. Although certain parts were a little annoying. I don't like DUmbledore. Even in death, I don't like. YOu made the old-fart too charming. Oh well, I guess its ganon based so...


    I really enjoyed it. Update soon!

    I've never seen it as one, nor would I consider a genre that's what 7 months old? To even have any old cliched ideas =)

    Then again, I too don't run out to read HBP fics so meh.
