I thought Chapter 18 was largly disappointing but I knew it would be ever since the beginning :wink: Chapter 19's my favourite so far, it even made me emotional and I was writing it! Not to mention I hardly ever get over-emotional.

Ah. That was partly my fault. The first few chapters were mainly Egyptian Flame's which I was too lazy to change (my bad i guess). Only the beginning parts were mine which should shine through :wink: Once the fic's over, I'll do some work on the first few chapters. The Tonks thing...I'm completely (almost) at fault. I dislike Tonks. I thought I'd challenge myself by writing a decent Tonks before getting sick of her. So I killed her. I kind of turned it to my advantage (unintentionally) on one of the latest chapters in the courtcase.

Harry doesn't have Dumbledore's memories, he has his knowledge of spells. Sorry if that it isn't clear and, again, will be made more clear when rewriting.

The teenage romance was stupidity on my part. I thought it'd be a cool idea at first but quickly realised it was a hindrance. It spiralled out of control before I whipped it back in line. This chapter is the last with 'High-School Drama' as one reviewer put it.

Why thank you, I'm chuffed.

Ah but what we must ask ourselves is: is it an outside influence...that's all I'll say for now. Glad readers are finally picking up on this voice, it's been there for a looooooong time and no-one's commented on it until now.

Harry isn't superman. If you were faced with someone as unbelievably buff as Bellatrix, you would try and get in her pants as quick as possible, I know I would. One thing I've tried to do is emphasise that Harry is a person. Too often have I seen excellent stories blighted by the portrayal of Harry e.g. Uber-Sophisticated language and an immunity against everything. You've got to remember that he was caught off-guard as well...

As for Tranter, well, she's got powers akin to Veelas and I haven't seen any evidence of Harry being able to shrug off a full veela charm but Tranter's is far more powerful...

Hope that clears things up.

Thanks for the reviews guys,

damn that was one ending.....man he like whacked out in front of everyone....was it the scar or something else?

is georgina a werewolf, cuz that would be funny as hell.....

 

Dude, your story is BRILLIANT (again)!!!!

FYI, this is CHarlieCHarms (changed my name; you like it :spins around and blows a kiss


ANyway, update soon!!

 

Wow master slyth you've picked up the pace truely excellent! good chapter, fix the start and then you might end up in the award forum of this awesome site!

 

I remember getting to chapter... 10 or something, then seeing it being redone, or it being taken up by someone else... and stopped reading it. I'm probibly thinking of a different fic, but then i don't remember why i stopped reading this...

 

Nice chap.

<----- Awaiting an update.

 

Or a character from Bob the Builder... anyway thanks for the reviews guys and I'm glad to see you're back Charlie.

 

I LOVE Bob the Builder!!! Maybe I'm a Transformer? Ooooh! That would be so cool!!!

Master Slytherin, THIS STORY ROCKS!!!

Update soon, because I'm desperate. As a transformer, no one is interested in me sexually, and do I even reproduce or do I just build my progeny. Do you see why I'm so desperate now? Please. Help me. :wink:

 

I haven't finished reading the chapter yet; something at the beginning of the story surprised me so much I had to pause in my reading to ask you about it....

When did you decide she was a Ravenclaw?? I thought you'd always claimed her for your own house all this time?

I always read your disclaimers because they amuse me so I noticed this right off.

Was this a mistake or was this a little hidden test to see if anyone actually reads the disclaimer, in which case what do I win? ;P

EDIT- Oh hell I guess I win the Mr. None-Observant prize--you've been doing this since chapter 12...well may I at least ask what brought on the change since I've already embarrased myself?

 

I had a long, hard debate with an author friend of mine who pointed out her characteristics. Also, he sent me the link to an interview where she admitted she would be in Ravenclaw. It's one of the only arguments I'veever lost...

Well, I couldn't argue with solid facts. I too read disclaimers though not many are very funny...

Now that you've (presumably) read the chapter, what d'you think. I don't think I've ever come across one of your reviews.

 

I see. Well I guess that makes sense. Especially if she says so herself.

Too true! Yet the ones that are make up for it!

Well that would be because my usual pattern is to save the entire story to disk then upload it to my Palm Zire 72se for later reading unless I know and liked some of the author's previous works in which case I might read it immediately.

I just read your story for the first time about a week ago and hadn't managed to get around to reviewing.

As for the story: I find it to be interesting the writing to be slightly back to HS hijinks (which can be fun at times if done right) and am intrigued at your handling of the Black sisters and the interactions of Harry and his parents, the marauders and especially Remus Lupin given this latest chapter.

I'd have liked a little more of a hint as to what's going on with those voices in Harry's head myself but I'm learning to be patient! I'm also finding Professor Trantor to be interesting..not to mention that I love the use of Nicholas Flamel. I wish we'd see more of him.

I still think Harry should be a prick and expose Lupin's lycanthropy to the entire school for messing in his business. It's all about the Evil!Harry, brah.

 

I never did like Lupin...That asshole..I say you kill him

 

The guy ABANDONED Harry to the Dursleys. To me, Lupin is just as culpable for Harry's bad childhood as Dumbledore. I'm not even saying he had to take him in... Just CHECK UP ON THE KID once a year. MAYBE even once a DECADE!!!

Your best friends only Son?! Hell, with friends like Remus Lupin, who needs enemies?

 

I don't like him mostly because of tonks but that works too

 

just finished reading chapter 18, its not bad but I really hope you give Harry a bit more confidence with the females...
as for lupin he's a sucker
