    Touch ballz. Not even that funny, smiled in a few parts but the humor was stale and recycled. I've read half these 'funny' things before, though the author may have written it a bit better. Still, wasn't funny the first time 'round. I liked the potions classroom scene but this ongoing thing with Pansy and her potion dealing is irritating.

    Yes, because Lily Potter was the only one who kissed her child on the forehead and tucked them in.

    Regardless of the above, this shit is better then some of what I've read anyway (at least so far) and if you read it with no to low expectations its enjoyable.

    I lol'd. It's a good story, but the spelling and grammar errors detract from it. 4/5

    Liked it, put a smile on my face as well, but not hilarious. Was good in that it stays to the story line somewhat, and isn't so over the top, to become annoying, and becoming a bunch of one liners strung together. 4/5

    This is one of the best Humor stories I have read in a long while. And I would have to say this is one of the best Time Travel fics I have ever read. However in admitting that, it is majorly because the lack, 'woe is me all my friends died, etc, etc,' that seems to fill many Time Travel fic. Honestly I was grinning for most of it and laughed at a few bits.

    The Sorting hat bit was best.

    Their are only two problems with this story. First of all is the Seer!Luna. While we haven't met her yet it is obvious she is a seer.
    Second of all is Harry's House. Although their is no doubt that Harry is Loyal, it is not his defining characteristic, and he said he was going to be sorted properly this time, rather then where he wanted to go.
    As such Slytherin or Gryffindor should have been his house.

    I will say 4.5/5 for now, but it is still too early for a good review.

    Edit: I have seen spelling errors in the story after reading it a second time, but I didn't spot them when I read for enjoyment, rather then to criticize, thus they are not a major issue.
