How wonderful for Harry to finally have some more pictures of his parents. It is great that Dudley has become far less of a git than ever before.

Why was Dennis Creevey asking about Monopoly? I thought he was Muggle-born. . .

Author's Response: Erm ... he never played it? lol That would probably be what we call an error ROFLOL

It really like old times...Hermione in the library researching some mystery...'cept the other two are Harry and Ginny instead of Harry and Ron.

I hope he likes the photos.

See this chapter is whyt I like this story so much. I simply loved the meeting with Harry & Dudley, nice to see how you took take that particular storyline. Many might not like it that Dudley seems to have changed so much but I personally think that you got it right.

The situation with the warewolf legislation is a bit worrying, nornmally I'd think nothing of it, but as Bill is owrried then it's alot more serious than that. Lucky Harry's got the mighty Hermione on his side, I think her working with Percy (yes really!!) wold have the porblem sorted!

Now what's going on with the chocolate?


Author's Response: So you didn't get the chocolate thing ... hmmm Well the girls enjoy the chocolate when they are pre menstrual.

The scene with the Gryffindor boys sitting and talking on the entrance steps at Hogwarts -- how far they've come to wind up where they started. Love the imagery.

Keep up the good work!

Author's Response: Oh I did, I did! Check out the new chapter *dances*

Dudley’s response to Harry’s visit (brief hug and a real, friendly conversation) was pleasantly surprising. Even better was Dudley’s annoyance with his mother and her continued ridiculous attitude towards the wizarding world. However, that attitude makes me wonder why she went to Godric’s Hollow. Is she finally regretting her actions towards Lily and Harry?

Harry’s trepidation about the envelope from Dudley was so poignant. It’s hard to believe that it took 17 years for Dudley to do something decent for his cousin, no wonder Harry was so nervous. It’s good to see that Big D finally grew up.

The friendship of the guys—Harry, Seamus, Dean, & Neville—is so much fun to read. You do such a great job of mixing the joking and banter along with the pain and difficulties they’re all dealing with.

Thanks for the scene with Harry and Hermione. I really feel for her—the Trio is split up and she probably feels replaced by Ginny. Ron and Harry were her first and closest friends, I’m sure she’s rather lonely now. It probably made her day that Harry confided in her and asked for help, even though it required a bit of hilarious blackmail to get the conversation going. I’m glad that you didn’t have Harry win the day at the Ministry when Brown presented his proposal. It was much more realistic what you wrote, which was reminiscent of Ron & Harry being totally befuddled over Umbridge’s speech beginning of 5th year…and we know who distilled it into something understandable for them!



Author's Response: I think Petunia only went because letting her precious Duddikins go alone with a wizard would have been unacceptable. There may be a twinge of regret, but I wouldn't get too excited about it. lol I think Hermione needed a moment - don't you? ;) No, Harry cannot win the day like that. I agree much more relaistic than kicking butt across the Ministry (maybe in a few years he can do that ;) )

hi ! I love this chapter. I like the way Harry and Ginny can calm each other. Ginny is so patient, she is so great ! I think Ginny wanted another chocolate... but why ??
The scene with Petunia and Dudley is very good. It was very interesting to speak about the picture of Petunia and Lily babies and to show the changes in Dudley. But I wonder why they went to Godric's Hollow... and why they dared to do it...
Thanks for the nice moments with Teddy. It's beautifull. And the werewolves issue keeps me on my nerves... Lavander's uncle is so stupid... thanks Hermione to take care of it !
And I wonder who is on the photo in the end... I think of Harry with his parents but it's too simple...
Good job ! Update soon !!!

Author's Response: Ah the chocolate mystery shall be solved ... fear not, patience is the key. Indeed, why did they go to Godric's Hollow? All the mysteries of photos and uncles and chocolate shall soon be revealed! I am glad you are still enjoying the ride!

Love it keep a great job....

Author's Response: Thanks!

Maybe Harry should stand up in the Wizengamot and say that he was injured by purebloods so they should all be locked up so he can feel safe? W.

What drama! Such emotions! How profound! This chapter is so thought -provoking that I wish it did not end at all. I can hardly wait for an update! Kudos to you!

Author's Response: Thank you very much, hopefully it won't be too far away.

Harry's so...messed up. I can't help but feel completely sorry for him. I think, though, that was what you were trying to achieve, and you hit the mark....Oh well. Great chapter, keep up the good work, and update soon!!!

Author's Response: Yea, it's sort of what I was going for. Poor fellow's got a lot going on ...



Reviewer: DebbieO Signed Date: 2008.05.10 - 10:45AM Title: Past Pain

On the chocolate thing...I'm thinking that Ginny is expecting some hormonal issues and needs a chocolate fix? Or that there's some kind of romantic moment Harry should be remembering to commemorate? And, I'm thinking that she's wanting something romantic from Harry, not chocolate frogs? I think its a tad overdone though. I'll take chocolate in any form (although a frog that actually jumps might put me off). I did enjoy the fact that Ginny didn't make an issue of it with Harry, but acknowledged that she didn't give him enough information and kisses him. I don't understand why Ron, Hermione and co. (who seem to be well-informed) didn't just tell Harry what to do. To tease him and tell him he's clueless and not help is kind of stupid. Harry's got a lot more going on than his girlfriend's "need" for chocolate.

Of course, it is human to have expectations of others and be disappointed by their little foibles. I'm glad Ginny didn't go into some kind of selfish pity party over it.

Author's Response: George to the rescue, Chapter 32 :D Never fear the cavalry is coming.

That was a great chapter. You portrayed Harry perfectly and had me feeling nervous at the end when they opened the envelope.

Everything was wonderful. Harry talking to Teddy about his parents was so sweet and beautiful. The scene in Privet Drive was awkward and bittersweet (spot on!). The return to Hogwarts and Harry's interactions with the boys and Hermione were fun. Seamus is hysterical. And the end! I love the way Ginny waits for Harry, loves Harry and is just right there for him. Beautifully done. The suspense at the end was perfect.

Author's Response: I feel all warm and fuzzy now, thanks! I'm glad to see someone else appreciating the Seamus funny! :D

Someone must explain to Harry about chocolate. Ginny should take pity on him b/c honestly, I don't think any man understands a woman, largely b/c we don't really understand ourselves. ;) Harry is extra clueless too with so little female influence in his life... Ginny needs to tell him exactly what she wants and needs otherwise he's bound to get it wrong half of the time. :)
And how dare the Dursleys take anything from Godric's Hollow!! If I was Harry, I'd be WAY more pissed and rightly so. Although I don't think Dudley tricked him about the envelope. I'm interested to see what photos are in there.

Author's Response: All in good time, my pretty ... all in good time ... :D You are very perceptive ...
