The flirtation between Harry and Ginny is certainly amusing. I'm curious about what exactly Harry is trying to achieve. He seems to have a definite plan that is known to Remus and Sirius, but I don't know what it could be.

I think it may have been Ginny's time of the month

Do agree with floppy maybe just a bit yes love your Harry char though do wonder if he really is going about it the right way to get friends?
Author's Response: You've left a whole chain of reviews. I'm going to lump them all together for one response . . .

I love know-it-all Harry Potter stories, when the bottom falls out, its a long way down.
Author's Response: Rather prophetic of you, now isn't it? Of course, I haven't exactly been trying to hide that detail. Glad you're apparently enjoying this.

very well done i love it
Author's Response: I'm glad you're enjoying the story. I usually try to buffer up a series of reviews like yours into one worthy response, but the punchline is that you're happily reading and I'm glad you're enjoying things. It's a strange ride, but some people really like it. Others don't, but that's a personal choice on their part. Thanks for reading and sharing your thoughts.

You are makind Dumbledore an IDIOT.
Author's Response: I think anyone that wants to bother trying can sit down and build up an argument for how JKR's Dumbledore character could easily be construed as one of:
(a) Dumber than a doornail
(b) Genius visionary
(c) About average, but very old
Of course, I'm not getting into the "powerful" question -- that's unrelated. In this story, you should see it start with a Dumbledore who is set in his ways ... he's powerful, he's got a long-term vision, and he's been doing this a very, very long time. I c an't possibly tell you how many people I encounter on a daily basis that are like this. Getting them to see something beyond what they think they see is well-nigh impossible. You really have to give them a jarring hit or two, and keep them off balance.
Anyway, you should find Dumbledore "waking up" as the story moves along. He's not a bad guy, but he's very human, and he's made some giant mistakes. Too many people want to idolize him, which just doesn't work. You can't do that based on his track record of decision making and judgement calls.
Whether you continue to follow the story or not, thanks for taking the time to give it a try and leaving your thoughts.

I already told you this is a GREAT story,so no more s---ing up. Schnoogle and fanfiction are my other 2 reading places
Author's Response: I'm glad you like the story.
You do realize there are 26 cubed ways to fill in those blanks in the basic latin alphabet, assuming you meant exactly three blanks? Of course, very few of those choices would actually make it coherent, but...
Maybe at some later point I'll post it someplace else. Reading stories at FF.net is like licking the sidewalk -- you never know what you'll find: a few interesting things, mostly gross things, and rarely something pleasant.
Of course, this assumes you like to lick sidewalks. Cheers.

This is one of the best AU's yet. I hope this moves along offen. Do you have it posted anywear else?
You apear to be very well read, and are quickly becoming my favorite read. I just hate to wait when it's that GOOD
Author's Response: I'm glad you're enjoying the story. It's not posted anywheer else, as I'm not really sure wheer I might or why I would bother. The Signal-to-Noise ratio on most sites is so abysmal, I fail to see the point. The ride's just getting started, so... stay tuned.

This is an awesome story! I can't wait for the next chapter!
Author's Response: I'm glad you're enjoying it. My betas have to suffer that I am poor at guessing how long my chapter sketches will be, so what I think of as one chapter turns into three. Sigh. It's a learning experience.

I still can't believe I missed the don't keep well joke. Urgh. I'm looking forward to hearing the plans for Snape and profit – not to mention the conversation re. Ginny with the twins/ a twin. And just what did he have made? Let me guess. More whistling? At least it's not stony silence. Oh, and I want some action soon. You haven’t let us see much since he beat up Malfoy. Training, dueling, something. You didn’t realize I had such bloodlust, did you? Great job, Josh!

Author's Response: Snape? Ginny? Items? Whistling innocently. Again.
Action? You want action? (maniacal laughter fading into background...)

I'm really enjoying your story so far. The prophecies are just vague enough to be unclear without being total gibberish, which is the way prophecies should be. Personally, I think the evidence points to Ginny being the fire in question, but I'm sure it's not quite that simple.
Speaking of which, I like your Ginny. She's recognizable as the same basic person who was given to us in canon, but with some obvious differences that mesh nicely with the setup of the AU. I'm very interested to find out her secret or secrets. I'm pretty sure there's something either traumatic and/or somewhat scandalous in her past, and I think there must be a very good reason everyone's afraid of her. I have to say I wanted to kill you, briefly, when you had George try to start that conversation only to have Harry cut it off. But it sounds like it will be in the next chapter, at the current pace, and that's good enough for me. I think whatever there is to know about her will somehow put her and Harry on more equal footing, which is very important in the long run for their relationship. Your Harry could never tolerate a trophy girl or a blushing damsel, much less a human doormat.
I'm very interested to see what happens with Snape. He's clearly one of the most interesting characters in canon, and you seem to have carried that over to your story effectively.
Finally, thank you for updating regularly. I know the writing process is very time consuming, but great stories that update only once every two months or so are very frustrating. I hope you can maintain your pace, but I'll be around to read (and review) either way.
Author's Response: Thanks for the thoughts... Is it more teasing to respond in detail, or to just let people wonder at the mysteries of life?
Prophecies are more fun when vague. Who knows what anything talks about? You might want to ask yourself if it is about Ginny, then what do the other lines mean? And then ask yourself if the author isn't setting you up to assume something? Paranoia is recommended.
What events are in Ginny's past seems to be a popular question... therein are explanations for many issues. You know I can't really respond to those types of things. It would give away too much. But you will find some hints and partial answers soon.
And Snape... oooh, that's all spoiler material. Sorry.
Thanks for the encouragement.

Okay, that was an odd chapter. Odd in that Harry's actions are kind of strange. Wanting to be sorted into different houses (I assume this includes Slytherin) and planning on pranking everyone. Your Harry is different from the norm. What will you throw at us next?
I enjoyed the part with Sirius running through the crowds. The best was the description of Padfoot sitting on Harry's shoes. If you have ever had a dog, you know this is typical behavior. Sirius plays his part well.
Snape - yech! He is now legally able to mind-rape any student he wants? What is Dumbledore thinking?!?! I look forward to reading about what Harry has in store for Snape. It should be interesting!
More good interaction between Harry, Ginny, Fred, and George. It looks like Ginny has laid claim to Harry. Does he agree with this? They do seem to flirt a lot.
Please update soon!
Author's Response: Thanks for the review...
Harry might seem kind of srange, but there are reasons for it... all will be revealed with time. What's coming next? Heh, quite a bit.
Snape will be appearing soon, of course, as indicated already. As for Ginny... who says anyone has claimed anyone else? Is it just button-pushing for reactions, or is it more?
