Title: Chapter 35
Yeah, the "access information in a sealed envelope" is a good idea. (It's used for things like sensitive passwords, lack of which could be exceptionally disruptive, for example.) And the "Reparo" spell is right handy, yeah? :-)
Harry's progress with the House Elf rights appears to be a pretty good compromise. I can see how Harry would be disappointed in failing to meet even one of his objectives -- but the situation now is better than it was, so that's progress. :-) [I'm reminded of a remark attributed to Otto von Bismarck, comparing the processes of making laws vs. making sausages....]
Well done.
Author's Response: Making laws vs. making sausages?? LOL! Yeah, that's an interesting comparison! And yeah, wouldn't you love to have a real "Reparo" spell? I know I would sometimes! The access info in a sealed envelope is something I'm familiar with from real life and it made sense in this context. Glad you like how the elf rights thing ended up. I don't think Harry will give up on it now that he's made that much progress, either. Dobby may always be a slave, but he's doing what he'd want to be doing if he were free - working for Harry. So all's about as well as can be expected in Dobby's world.
Glad you enjoyed the chapter! Thanks for writing!

Go Harry! Lock down those wards! Every set of newlyweds should have a relative free zone, especially with a family as big as the Weasley's. Nice job!
Author's Response: Yes, that's an age-old problem for newlyweds! But he'll get it taken care of! :D
