    Title: Larceny, Lechery, and Luna Lovegood!
    Author: Rorschach's Blot
    Rating: M
    Genre: Humor/Romance

    This is one of Blot's drabbles/bunnies that has grown out into a real story. The plot is simple - Harry learns that his whole family were thieves and he decides to take on the family trade and bring the fight back to Voldemort. Hermione gets dragged into it along the way...

    That's right, the Bucktooth Know-It-All... Heh, well she IS bossing Harry around, no denying there. But the whole sexual tension, innuendo and humor aspects, as well as the fact that they are NOT dating makes the whole thing bearable, at least to me.

    So far, this hasn't been officially posted. First 4 chapters can be found inside the linked FILES section and the 5th one here. Regardless of its 'unofficial' status, this is IMO still the best Blot's story after "Make a Wish"; Less repetitive then the MOW's sequel and certainly loads better then the overrated "Old Soldiers Never Die".

    Recommended.
    4.2/5

    Thanks IP, this is just Great.
    Highly Recommended, the hwole innuendos plus the plot, which could be develloped into a real fic... Great.
    4/5, if not higher.

    This is a great story. Read it. It's got random moments full of innuendo, and it's actually developing a plot. Not one I've seen before either. Even if Harry is now casting wards at a professional level on his first proper try, 5 and a bit chapters in.

    Chapter 6 Pt 1 is also now posted.

    I think the fact that it's "Rorschach's Blot" tells you everything you need to know.

    Not as dramatic and serious as "Old Soldiers" nor as simply straight up silly as "Time Warp", but somewhere in between with an interesting idea for the plot while still being written in Señor Blot's traditional hilarious style.

    4/5 at least.

    For some reason, I just couldn't get interested by it. That and I think its worse then his other works. Ah well.

    3/5.

    Herman is quite bossy in this one, it annoyed me a great deal, but Harry isnt fazed by it, so I got used to her ways because Harry isn't the dumb pansy that is usually associated with a overly bossy Herman. There are some scenes that made me laugh and as it goes, I think I'll follow the story. The cliche's that the author took up from fanon are actually quite interestingly integrated and explained (he has to study family magic, not inherit it somehow and automatically know how).

    Bor-ing, although not as bad as Old Soldiers. He should drop this crap and continue to work on the sequel to Make a Wish. 2.5/5.

    I actually hate the Make a Wish sequal, it seems to be going towards an ending that will completely eliminate the Mr.Black mythos. Namely that Harry will decide to become Harry, and not Mr.Black anymore. I agree with IP82 that old soldiers is wayyyy overrated, and that this one is Rorschach's best since MAW.

    Mentally impared suites the lil bugger, anywho... I for one think the authors a freakin genius, but the stories fith and sixth parts are spread abouts in messages and makes going after it one swoop nearly impossible, still very good story though.

    This actually surprised me. I enjoy most of his work, but I can't say it's always written the best. It has concepts I like and find entertaining and is written reasonably well. That, and the Hermione factor has never really bothered me, so I don't have that hesitation either. I'm pretty damn happy right now. -smile-

    4/5.

    Did not like this story all that much probably because of Hermione so i will have to give this story a 3/5.
