    I go out with the guys some weekends (once every 6 weeks or so). I have to empty my wallet beforehand, because when I'm in there, and I'm all fucked up, whatever I have is going into some girl's g-string.

    Just wanted to let you know that no ones forgotten your story, and we're all eager for an update Midknight. Saw that no one had posted in 5 days, and took it upon myself to do so.

    Happy Writing!! :wink:

    The chapter I had here has been posted to FF.net, with a few minor additions.

    I know where I'm going with the next one so I'll be able to knock that out when I get a chance. I had planned on doing it tonight but I got sidetracked bragging about my story in every thread, nazi admining, and just being a all around evil person.

    Sorry about that.

    Here is the link here, it's in the Work By Author category. Thats where I post chapters first, or snippets of my notes.

    Link: http://darklordpotter.net/forums/viewtopic.php?p=12888#12888

    The changes are in dialogue, some foreshadow hints, and it's mostly proofed. It's not as long as I usually do, but I wanted to get it out there while I had time to actually be at my house in front of my own PC for a change.

    Thanx! Great chapter! i love when Harry ells off Molly, I hate Molly. I also love Harry using Gin, so I'm glad that is impled to be coming up. I wonder, is Remus, Tonksie and Kingsley going to be the ones who tell him who is loyal to him? Since he doesnt seem tobe spying on the meeting at all... Will Ron or ermione stay loyal? Turn coat? I lov that line abut coming at Harry 'like a bloke', that was hilarious. I was waiting for him to punch her,but Buckbeak saved him the trouble. Did he refrain from hitting Molly becaue he still (partly) thinks it would be wrong? Or because he just knows that she is so annoying out of genuin concern? hmmm im gonna stop with the questions for now, im full of too many atm.

    Thanks.

    Its a couple different reasons he didn't hit Molly. He's not going to turn into some abuser of women or anything. With Molly, it was reflex, he's still a little wary after Vernon. I didn't want to do the normal "Vernon's abused Harry his whole life, beating him to near death everyday" so I went the route I did, and it serves the purpose of making Harry more aware that physical danger can still hurt him, even when theres no magic involved. He knows deep down she means well, but her control freakisness and damned fawning over him needed to stop, and this is a small step how. There will be another instance probably midway next chapter that Harry goes at her again, and it's fairly funny, heh.

    With Ginny, well he was annoyed after being yelled at all night long, and the bitch had the nerve to try to hit him again?! Screw that. Note I didn't have him smack the shit out of her like I'd originally written, (I didn't think I'd get too many nice points with anyone turning Harry into Ike Turner) instead he just shoved her on her skinny ass.

    Buckbeak is going to be Harry's icon/mount/etc in the story. I'm so sick of snake pets that it's not funny, and I have never seen Buckbeak really used at all, so Buckbeak protecting the man that saved his life is going to play into a few scenes. I just though it'd be hilarious for Beaky to be the one to give Ginny her first asswhippin' :twisted:

    Lupin will stay loyal through the whole story, he actually make it to the end. Shacklebolt never tries to involve himself a ton, but he'll help out where he can. Tonks will talk to him about Hermione and Ron, and their betrayal will be a drawn out thing, happening when Harry needs help the most.

    Their deaths/punishments I've mentioned here before, and I can't wait to flesh out the note I have for it, hehe


    Ask away I like answering what I can, it often gives me new ideas to :GDie1

    Interesting, using Buckbeak. When my Harry needs to fly, he'll be doing so in style riding his trademark imperial chariot, drawn by ten winged horses (unsure whether to use Pegasi or Thestrals now, probably the former).

    :grins Mischievously: I have a pet that no one's thought of yet.


    Also, Buckbeak is pretty ferocious. Remember, he was able to fend off Lupin in Book 3, so he's pretty fucking tough. 8)

    I know how you feel, lol, Serapheth's stumbled onto a few ideas I was going to use, that I'm having to rewrite so it doesn't look like I copy& pasted his stuff, hehe

    Exactly, Lupin's werewolf will remember this and it'll be a point where theres a confrontation between the two, until finally they get along.

    I was just going to have him as Harry's pet....but Harry will possess him repeatedly to scout out an area and such...The eyes of an eagle could come in handy....

    How are they going to communicate? If you don't mind me asking.

    Harry is just going to possess him...they're not going to communicate anymore than Harry and Hedwig would be able to.

    You could use a dozen thestrals, and one shining pegasus to light the way. Then he'd be like Santa, only dropping murderous goblins down people's chimneys rather than colorfully-wrapped packages.
