Thankfully Ginny is there to comfort Harry as only she can. They have all been through a tremendous stress, particularly Harry. It will be interesting to have Dobby as Harry's house elf.

"girl skin feels to a teenaged boy’s hand."
to that I add to ANY boy (age 12+) or man's hand for that matter ;)

I hope Ginny will be able to help Harry through his troubles. I'm glad he finds some comfort in her presence.
Like Harry needs Ginny Remus seems to need Tonks. I know that she will be good for him now that he's come to his senses.
Author's Response: Everybody needs someone to help them through their hard times. Harry and Remus are lucky to have found their ladies!

no point in changing it! it just means bad mood to me! i would have used fiesty!
i stay in a town called Dumfries which is in South west Scotland. its not too bad here, when its not raining, which has been almost everyday! people associate Dumfries with Robert Burns (rabbie burns or The Bard) as he was a famous poet who was born and raised here. he wrote famous poems like 'Tam o Shanter' 'Auld Lang Syne' which was converted to a folk song for hogmanay, 'Address to a Haggis' which is used on 25th jan when they celebrate rabbie burns day, and obv we would eat a haggis, and the poem is said before eating it.
'To a mountain Daisy' - random fact, when i was at high school we had to draw a representation of the poem, and i drew a simple version of this and won the competition!
and haggis is a sheeps heart, liver and lungs, a bit of blood, with onions, herbs and spices and its all bunged into the sheeps stomach and boiled - sounds really gross but it is really nice to eat.
where do you plan on goin when you come to sunny (and i use that term loosly!) scotland!

Author's Response: There's a Dumfries in Virginia near where I grew up!
I've heard about several areas I'd like to visit, some with Harry Potter connections - Glen Heath (I think that's the name - I have a list somewhere) where the heather was set on fire by the Hogwart's Express a couple of films ago; Fort William, which I've heard is a charming town; the Loch Ness area, of course; Edinburgh and a couple of other cities/towns. I really like seeing the little villages that are still quaint and not all modernized, like Lacock and Avebury in England.
Thanks for explaining haggis - I knew a sheep's stomach was involved It does sound disgusting, but so does blood pudding, and I tried some when we were in England in 2006 and actually liked it! And I LOVE scones with clotted cream! Yum!
Thanks for the info!

stroppy doesn't mean fiesty, it means moody, or gone in the huff! well, thats what it means in sunny scotland! hee hee
good chapter tho! some fluff in the beginning, is always good! and harry getting all embarrassed! very funny!!!!
Author's Response: My Britpicker's British and she insisted that was the word I needed to be the Brit version of "feisty" - I've heard from several other Brits that disagreed, but I'm not changing things now.
You're in Scotland? Where? I hope to visit there in the next few years and am interested in hearing more about it!

impressive and well written chapter. the councilling was great and it was very much needed to happen. the comfort between harry and ginny is excellent and it won't be long until they truly cement there relationship togther with each other. thank you for bringing tonks and remus together and whatever happens please keep them alive because they deserve to unlike how SHE KILLED THEM OFF.
anyway keep the chapters rolling and rolling. 10!
Author's Response: Yeah, she did, but I won't, don't worry! Glad you're enjoying it!

amazing.but before i forget it is Romania not Rumania
Author's Response: Yeah, I get that a lot, but the story's been finished for years and I'm not changing anything. That's the spelling my Brit-picker insisted on.
Glad you liked the story!

Loved the story and I understand how Arthur feel's. I have two grown up daughters of my own and can understand the worry he must have felt. The last sentence about soft girl skin on a teenaged boy's hand reminded me that I was young once too. Great read and great writing....well done.
Author's Response: I, too, have grown children, which explains my understanding of how Molly and Arthur feel. And I remember being young, too! I'm glad you're enjoying the story! Thanks a lot for the nice reivew!

I really liked this chapter. The emotions were really... in tune? I'm not sure what word to use there...
I love the new parts in Ginny and Harry relationship. It really adds a little... I dunno what to put there either. Anyway, another great chapter. The only thing I'm confused with is "Rumania." Charlie works in Romania. Is that just a different spelling or something?
Avalon
Author's Response: My Brit-picker INSISTED on "Rumania" not "Romania" so that's what I used. I've gotten a lot of flak over it, but I'm not changing anything. These stories are published and will stand "as is" - I've moved on to other stuff. Glad you liked the chapter! I work hard at writing realistic emotional scenes. I'm gald it worked for you!

that was really good; and as for the gray hairs; I know it's possible, you have to go through something really taumatic and I'd think what Harry when through was traumatic enough; it's just a wonder he doesn't have a full head of gray hair by now.
Author's Response: Yup, I did the gray hair thing myself when I was 19 - only 4 of them, thank goodness! And yup, it's amazing he doesn't have a full head of gray hair by now. Glad you liked it!

I'm glad they finally told each other that they loved each other. I think it's charming how slowly Harry and Ginny are taking their relationship, but I'm a bit surprised confessions of love took so long... but I understand Harry not wanting to admit to himself that he loved her. Silly boy. Having Harry do the body count? What? Not Moody's best idea. Tonks and Remus were sweet. I think the two of them together is so much fun. I hope we get lots of them in Book 7.
Author's Response: Yeah, I like Remus and Tonks together. I hope JKR lets them be happy. I don't like what she did with Remus in HBP, but I didn't much like HBP anyway. Glad you liked the chapter!

It's good to see that Remus has found someone to love. Can't say I'm disappointment about Kreacher he was a slippery little weasel. Good for Dobby. Glad Harry is taking him under his care.
Author's Response: Glad you liked all that! Thanks!

Well...I loved these past two chapters I have read. I would love to read more but I have to get back to school for PE. Anyway...excellent writing once again. Took me an hour to read two chapters...geez. Lol...my one friend took a look at how many chapters and words there are and closed it. She isn't much of a chapter reader...only one shots really. Lol. Great job! I probably won't be able to read more until tomorrow morning at school during Desktop Publishing. Thanks! -Katie
