Off to Hogwarts. I don't know whether to be pleased or nervous for them.

Good to see Percy has improved and is now a little more understand of Harry and Ginny's relationship. It's definitely going to be wierd without Ron being with Harry and Hermione and I hope you'll somehow keep him involved in the story. I really loved this line in this chapter: No matter how difficult Percy was to get along with, giving him this book meant he was making an effort. The fact that Harry had no intention of opening the book was neither here nor there' That was really funny and I wonder how Percy's going to feel about Harry not opening the book. Time for me to move on to the next chapter.

Brilliant chapter--loved the Chumleys!
And Ron's explanation to Harry as to why Harry had to go to Hogwarts was perfect.


Author's Response: I'm glad you're all enjoying the fic and stuff :D

Percy definitely has OCD! However underneath all that pompous, patronising and intensely rude behaviour is a brother who hasn't got over letting his sister down in her first year. Unfortunately I cant see Percy changing that much, I think he'll always be a git!

My skin actually crawled with embarassment when George suddenly realised why Harry was moody. If only he had his epiphany AFTER Mrs Weasley had exited the house and not before...And to top it all Arthur then overhears him and George. I think his closing words to Ginny after that speak volumes...who else would put up with Ginny's brothers. They really are his family to him although taking bets on when your sister has sex is definitely going too far. I hope Molly finds out and puts a stop to it (after a suitable amount of yelling!!)

An emotional farewell at the station..I am SO glad Harry and Ginny are going to be together, but it is going to be very difficult for Hermione and Ron.

So many good points to the chapter, Ron & Harry's talk, Harry, Bill & Percy's talk, Percy's birthday party, the scene on the platform. All were excellent to read, but I really shouldn't have expected nything different really, not considering the previous 24 chapters!

I've just finished reading this story to this point and must comment that I have not wanted to leave it alone. I have cried and laughed throughout. You have written Bill to be an amazingly sensitive but wise older brother. (I why can't all men to like Bill!!!) wink,wink. I definitely see Harry's character feeling responsible for Teddy, mimicking one generation caring for another due to the personal costs of both wars. You have opened some doors for good story ideas with Lucius being back in the picture, Ron with George at the shop, sensual feelings of Gin/Harry growing stronger and having Draco present to be annoying again. So much to look forward to in your coming chapters.
SUPERB story.

Author's Response: Thank you. I do hope everyone enjoys the next few chapters, some of the events seem to have taken on a life of thier own! Some lively and interesting moments even if I do say so myself ... lol Thanks for taking time to review, I'm glad you like Bill, that's just how I wanted him to be. I figure if Harry's family then he needs an older brother like the rest of them. When Bill came in GoF and later at Shell Cottage it just said to me lots about how Bill would be with Harry. I've really enjoyed exploring their relationship. Anyway best get to writing ... you won't believe what Ron gets up to un chapter 27 ... ;)

hello,
I really love this story. I look forward to reading the sequel !

I began to read a few days ago, it was very hard to stop reading to go to bed, to go working or eating, or even to find a translation in the dictionnary (I'm French) !!
I like your writing style. We feel close to the characters, as in the books. I laughed, I cried... I really reconized the characters' behaviour. It's great to make come back Rita Skeeter ! You describe the events with many details, they follow one another logically...

I don't know what to say to congratulate you for the way you describe the funerals, the scenes when Harry, George and Ginny are terrified and distressed, the feelings in the Weasley familly and with Harry and Hermione (and I think you've developped th character of Bill in a very interesting way), the love moments between Harry and Ginny, Ron and Hermione, and with Teddy...

So, congratulations !

Author's Response: I still have a way to go on this story before I entertain the notion of a sequel ... do you think I should write more? Thank you very much for your kind words. I couldn't begin to read something in a foreign language so kudos to you as well! I hope you continue to enjoy!

I'm not sure why I've avoided reading this story until now -- I think post-DH stories are turning me off for some reason. But I decided to read yours on a whim and I was immediately obsessed! I spent ALL DAY reading it. I love the slow, easy love between Harry and Ginny. I think the recovery of everyone after everything they all went through during the war is incredibly realistic and I'm so glad you didn't make everything immediately okay or (on the flip side) have it all fall apart. You've built a story where the reader gets so involved in the characters and you can really see how they are rebuilding their lives (what an apt title!). It's very well done, especially Harry. You've captured his moods, his wit and his love for others. I love how you've had George deal with things -- I'm a twin myself and think you've done a beautiful job of portraying how a surviving twin might feel. I've cried several times already! (which is totally unlike me!). Anyway, I can't say enough good things about the story. I can't wait to see where you go with the rest of the story! Congrats on such a good job!

Author's Response: I avoid reading stories for a multitude of reasons lol sometimes not very good ones! ROFLOL

I have struggled a bit with George. I have only my own experiences to go on and losing your oldest sibling after a terminal illness is not the same as losing your twin violently but I imagine some of the feelings are bound to be the same. 7.5 years later - it still gets to me sometimes, I spent Saturday with her daughter who sounds Just Like Her and Sunday with one of her granddaughters who looks like her - it was just really hard by the end of it even though I had a great time! The conflicting emotions are intense. I think after you lose someone, in no way does life just go on but it never really falls apart either. For George to be having a great time but then for Ron to do something that reminds him of Fred or for him to realise Fred's missing would just be such a blow to him. I feel so sad for George ...

I can't wait to see where i go either ... oh, wait I know *grins*. Are we ready for more!Neville everyone?????? (That's a hint ...;) )

I really like this story. The evolution of the characters and their relationships with each other feel realistic to me. It's not too forced or overly dramatic. I have to say the part with Goyle being in love with Crabbe threw me. I wasn't expecting that, and I laughed out loud, even though it was a serious moment. I loved the way you revealed it with the reference to Dumbledore, although I doubt Malfoy would have been aware of Dumbledore's sexual preferences. :)
I hope you see this story through to the end, and I look forward to reading more.

Author's Response: Oh I don't know ... Malfoy's 'status' might make him aware of certian 'things'. I see it like Draco might have heard a few things through keyholes while the very intolerant Lucius and Narcissa had a few things to say. I see the Weasley kids/Harry as not knowing because, well Molly and Arthur never thought it worth discussing in hushed tones. Anyway, I'm glad you like it!

I hope I see this through to the end too - that's certainly the plan!

You gotta love Bill. He was so wonderful, mediating Percy’s and Harry’s meeting. I expect that nothing would have been settled between them without Bill there.
Why do Percy and Bill think that the admin assistant who erroneously copied Harry’s statement was “an incompetent nitwit”? Sounds to me like he was very cleverly helping the Malfoys, maybe even in their employ. Or maybe I’m a wild-eyed conspiracy theory maniac….

Loved the muggle trick candles on the cake and how none of the wizards could figure them out!

Your exploration of Harry’s trepidation about returning to Hogwarts and his talk with Ron was wonderfully done. I would think that going back to school and living under their rules will be rather chafing to Harry after the year the Trio just endured. He’s much older than the typical student in more than just years. Then again there’s a lot of other students, like Hermione, Neville, and Dean, who are in the same boat. I expect that McGonagall will have her hands full!

It will be interesting to see what Rita writes about Harry & Ginny. Loved how Ginny stood up for him, just like she did 6 years earlier in the bookstore!


Author's Response: Oh, I love Bill. Percy and harry resolving something together without a mediator? Yeah I couldn't see it happening. Neither, it seems, could Arthur ;)

Maybe you are a wild-eyed conspiracy theory maniac .. or not ... we'll see, won't we ...

Oh it will be very interesting so see what our band of "repeating" Seventh Years get up to ;).

I should at this point, thank Melindaleo for the idea to have Ginny stick up for Harry :D . Sadly not every last little idea is mine ... I just weave it into the narrative! Rita, Rita, Rita ... muhahahahahahaha

I loved it, I loved the Teddy moments, those are always my favorite. I also liked the ending with the blond boys--it made me crack up. However, there were a couple of mistakes throughtout the whole chapter, small stuff like capitalizing "stared" without a reason and one particular sentence when Mrs. Weasley was packing Hermione's trunk. Overall, I liked it a lot and I can't wait to see how their first day at Hogwarts turns out AND the reaction of the two boys when they find out who Harry is. Update soon!

Author's Response: I can't remember when Mrs Weasely was packing Hermione's trunk? *author goes searching* Rachel normally picks up random capitalisations :( . First day at Hogwarts, next stop! :D
