The truth is coming out quickly which is certainly a good thing.

----“It was part of Voldemort,” she began, “he left, well, it, in you the first time he tried to kill you and the second time he used the Killing Curse on you he ripped it out again and it took the Parseltongue with it. The Parseltongue was part of it.” ----

Erm..., but Harry didn't talk Hermione yet why exactly Voldemort thought he's dead (in a 1st chapter he didn't want to talk about that and there wasn't any talks about that....)


Ohter than that - started to read this again now when it finished :)

Do you wonder if people ever want to shout at Molly to quit grabbing and fussing?Wouldn't you think Arthur might just once stand up to her and tell her to back off?How selfish of her to act as though she 's the only one grieving....Sorry, not a Molly fan.There must be a reason her five oldest abandoned the nest at their first opportunity.
Enough of that,Harry's 'breakdown' is very well done.I look forward to watching the healing begin.

Author's Response: Well, I disagree with you about Molly. Some people do fuss - often mothering types, it's because they care and I don't think anyone ever is actually annoyed with Molly for it.They are frustrated in the way that teenagers are frustrated with their mothers. As for oldest five leaving the nest ... that's perfectly normal behaviour and has nothing to do with the fussing. Children leave home when they become adults! They travel for work! Percy was ASKED TO LEAVE so yeah - I definitely disagree with the assessment of Molly. Why would you expect adults to stay at home forever? You want to work with dragons, there are none in England - so you go to the dragons. That's independent of Molly. The twins were unable to conduct business in their tiny bedroom so sought new premises nothing indicating Molly was an influence there. Anyway ... Yeah I just disagree.

I like the way that events are slowly seeping out...it seems much more realistic than Harry just sitting down and telling it all. People do say things which make other people ask questions just as happened in this chapter.

Although it is so sad Fred is gone, a loving family like the Weasleys means there is always someone to lean on, and who is more than happy to oblidge when they can help,

Love the line: do you think you can bond with her after dinner?

I've never really felt that Harry losing Parseltongue was very fair to him. I see the reasoning behind it, but it kind of sucks--Here's a cool ability that you have, but we're gonna take it away as part of the price of having won.
Anyway, fun to see Harry yell at Molly like that.

Author's Response: I figured Harry wouldn't be too upset at losing it. It was never a very kind skill to him ...

Loved the part about Ginny freaking out about the chamber and wanting it closed... I never would have thought about that! And it totally makes sense that Harry would lose that particular ability.

Author's Response: I'm glad it made sense to you it seemed all logical and stuff to me! :D

Kezza,

I'm finally finding the time to thoroughly read your story and so far I absolutely love it. I love how protective Kreacher is of Harry in chapter 1 and how Harry and George's other brothers help him remember Fred. The brothers' plan to ferret out who Ginny's boyfriend is and Harry's subsequent need to hide was a nice change from all the sadness in this chapter. I love how you waited to reintroduce the Harry/Ginny romance until the second and third chapters. The way Ginny helps Harry grieve is wonderfully touching and very well done. In most of the fics I've read, Harry grieves in private without someone to comfort him and even if Harry and Ginny haven't fully reconciled yet, her understanding and patience in this chapter are exactly what Harry needs to start healing. I also really like how Neville pledges to help Harry "godfather" Teddy Lupin. That was a nice touch. You have Molly Weasley down pat! I love her tirade at the beginning of Chapter 4 and how each of her children know they must say sorry in order to get back into her good graces. I completely understand her fear of not being able to find her children; as a parent myself, even losing sight of my own son in the grocery store or in a crowd sends me into a panic. The fact that one of her children went away and didn't come back is a nightmare I sometimes have to deal with myself after my son has strayed during the day. Finally, it's good to see Harry making the decision to go back to Hogwarts in September. I love your line about the fact that he can make the decision (and any other decision for that matter) without considering whether or not Voldemort will be involved somehow. I'm hoping that between Harry's decision and Hermione's nagging Ron will decide to join Harry and go back to school to get his NEWTs. Your sense of humor continuously shines through in this chapter with how much and how swiftly the Weasley brothers begin teasing Ron about the fact that he and Hermione are together. I'm sure Molly is quite pleased to have a piece of "good" news in all of the sorrow.

One little picky thing: In Chamber of Secrets (American edition p. 325) JKR writes that as Harry, Ron, Ginny and Professor Lockhart emerge from the tunnel leading from the Chamber of Secrets, it seals itself and the sink swings back into place. I realize that you may be taking liberties with canon or using movie-canon as your source here; I do not mean this as criticism, but just something you might want to consider changing if you ever have the notion to rewrite the story.

That's all for now. I give this story, so far, two thumbs up for the emotional rollercoaster you're taking us on. I'm off to read the next five chapters.

Author's Response: I'm glad you are enjoying it. I won't spoil it for you but I hope you continue to do so! The Chamber, well I was taking liberties I guess. It got broken in the battle? I may look at revising it but ... I may not! Thanks for the heads up though. I have a tendency to mess these small issues up now and again! Anyway let me know what you think of the next five!

"Mrs Weasley, really, Mrs Weasley — MUM! Stop!” thats sucha good line, i think it was meant, but there is always a time in your life when you accidently call someone mum, its just brought back a really funny memory!!!
you don't see ginny that scared too often, but she obv doesn't like the CoS!

Author's Response: No CoS is a dark time in Ginny's life ...

This is a really nice story. You have the Weasleys down pat, I think. Can't wait to read more.

Author's Response: Thank you, I do enjoy the Weasleys!

I think this is the first story I have read post DH that mentions this as a possibility...Harry not being a Parselmouth anymore. Makes perfect sense...I just hadn't thought about that yet. Keep up the great work!

Author's Response: I read in a JKR transcript (interview or webchat or something) that he was no longer a Parselmouth. It makes perfect sense. Voldemort left it so if Harry got rid of what Voldemort left...stands to reason it was gone! Besides, it makes a great scene! lol

I love that MUM, stop!
Word police here (your story is toooooo good to let this go), every time you wrote Weasley's, it was Weasleys, it's a plural, not a possessive.
Running to the next!

Author's Response: Oh I KNOW! i was editing last night ad found a whole bunch of plural/possesive mix ups!!!!!! I was like, oh man, I bet I did that all through the first four chapters! I might go edit that when I get time. It's definitely on my radar now and shouldn't be happening in future chapters. (cross your fingers I don't make silly mistakes ad that other people pick them up if I miss them!)

I love this story! It's just what I needed after the book. Molly in this chapter was great and Harry called her Mum... how sweet. Everyone was really in-character and I liked how you flowed between greiving and fluff. Really well done!

Author's Response: It's good to get some feedback on the cahracterisation, so far so good, hey? ;) I'm glad you are enjoying it. I like a bit of fluff mixed in with the tense stuff too.
