Lonely Moon 2008-04-29 ch 19, anon.	abuseGurney Halleck and Duncan Idaho? Was there a point to the Dune references? Either way, I'm enjoying the story and looking forward to seeing where it goes.
Madam Bones 2008-04-20 ch 30, anon.	abuseThat story was absotively, posilutely, without a doubt, 100% amazing. I loved the ending. The next one, their seventh year, takes place before "Tomorrow's Interlude", I gather. Simply brilliant. I love it! It must be hard for the rest to understand why they couldn't stop other things from happening, but as odd as it sounds, they already did what they did, so they couldn't really make the decision to do or not do something else. That does make more sense in my mind than typed onto the screen, I assure you. I guess this is a bad case of the Predestination Paradox, huh? I really enjoyed that. I loved the way you put in everyone's futures without it sounding forced. I LOVE that Fred and George each taught DADA as a sort of excuse to promote their products, and that Snape practices being an arse in the mirror, and that Albus was not at all upset by their wiping his memory. I also thought it was so wise for Harry and Ginny to destroy the clock, because that could cause a whole new set of disastrous problems. Anyway, I really loved the story. I am off to read their final year, and to see what new and equally astonishing events unfold. I think your writing shows true mastery of the English language, and I can't wait to see what Sirius gets himself into now (ahem, "Who said I was going to buy one?"...). Wonderful job! I am quite enamored with each and every one of your characters. Save for maybe Draco and Moldywart. I do want to know why they felt it so necessary to save Draco. What role does he have that he must play in the next installment? I am anxious to find out. Thanks you so much for writing such a great and fun story. I appreciate all the hard work you must have put into this work of art. Thank you again. As Always, Undeniably, Incessantly, and Gratefully Yours, ~Madam B.~
Madam Bones 2008-04-13 ch 25, anon.	abuseAch! Draco is scaring me. I don't like that he has so much confidence even though he's losing it. I don't like that at all. And what I want to know is how Harry and Ginny got the ability to time travel, and why they needed to help. I know they did do a good job helping, what with the merpeople and the centaurs, but what would have happened if they didn't? And it's odd that they had to wipe Dumbledore's memory. Yet, somehow, it seems like the kind of thing that Dumbledore would have approved of. He would have seen that it was necessary (which, I am trusting the Professors Proteus, it is) and would have been perfectly fine with it. Anyway, I'm waiting to find out more about them. Nice chapter. I'm glad Ginny's okay. But really, Draco is scaring me. I hope they keep an eye on him. Excellent job. Yours, ~B.~
Madam Bones 2008-04-12 ch 19, anon.	abuseWait! This battle can't start until I know what this prophecy says about Harry's death. What if it's at the end of this? That's not good! And this whole crystal prism talk is making me anxious. Sounds like something that has many, many ways to go wrong. I wouldn't question it at all, however, if I didn't know that the Well of Shadows is just as strong, if not stronger than the Order of the Phoenix. How do we know the Well didn't just waltz on in and flick one of the crystals out of place? Hmm? It's nerve wracking! Anyway, Harry better have a damn good "sense of direction" (by the way, very cute...) because I might just lose it if he's gone. Really, I love him and would be so sad if he died. Not to mention how broken the rest of them would be: the whole school, the Weasleys, Hermione and Ron and, oh! and Ginny! They would be so lost and they would need someone to lead them, which I suppose Ginny could do if she had to, but I think she would be so broken she might not be able to. Except that Harry, being a member of the Order, would be in her head. Hmm, interesting idea, actually, but DON'T GET ANY IDEAS. I prefer my Harry very much alive, thank you very much. Great chapter, but I'm a bit terrified. Thanks for another nice one! Nervously Yours, ~B.~
Madam Bones 2008-04-11 ch 16, anon.	abuseOh my goodness. This is simply the best chapter ever. Battles and dragons and kissing and Ron finally getting a clue. And he is simply the most adorable boy ever, with the exception of Harry, who is simply the most badass person on the planet. This was a wonderful chapter. I am so glad Ron's awake. I didn't realize how much I missed him! Amazing, astounding, excellent, terrific chappie! Yours, ~B.~
Madam Bones 2008-04-11 ch 12, anon.	abuseThe Professors Proteus are quite an oddball bunch. They are from the future, or do they simply travel to the future, or can they just see the future? And what is with the mind reading? I'm not sure I trust them, but if Dumbledore has so much faith in them, I supposed I must, too. But still, I'd like to know their story before trusting them completely. Anyway, I love Blaise as a commentator. I love her in general, and I love that she's so trustworthy. She renews my faith in Slytherins. Anyway, I'm going to read one more chapter before I go to bed. Nice job on this one. I love Quidditch! Yours, ~B.~
Madam Bones 2008-04-11 ch 11, anon.	abuseThat last scene could have easily been the best, most enjoyable scene in any fanfic I've ever read. I'm practically crying, I'm laughing so hard. Wonderful chapter! Always and Amusedly Yours, ~B.~
Madam Bones 2008-04-11 ch 10, anon.	abuseAlright. Now you have my attention, that's for sure. I don't understand. Harry is not going to die. And Hermione is not going to be pulled out of school. And you had me sufficiently embarrassed for Harry when he mistook a certain bushy-haired friend for Ginny as to hide my own head in my hands. This certainly is a problem. Everything. And they need Ron to wake up. Correction, Hermione needs Ron to wake up very soon, because she's kind of falling apart. Anyway, let's discuss this PROPHECY or whatnot. I do not like it one bit! Harry is a bloody mess, do you know that? The only other problems in his life are, oh, say, his best friend is comatose, his other best friend is being forced to move, he has en enemy that has enough power to end the world, and he has to deal with the Weasley brothers. Not like he has anything else on his plate...now he has a prophecy of death looming over his head. Wonderful. And this better be avoidable. I don't know if I could handle it if Harry died. I might have a mental breakdown. Anyway, I liked this chapter. Nice job. Thanks for another good one. ~B.~
Madam Bones 2008-04-06 ch 7, anon.	abuseGah! Scary, scary, scary! And so so sad! I can't believe so many people died. And I know Harry's just being himself, but its ridiculous that he's feeling guilty. But I still don't understand how Draco could be so powerful as to trump the Order! And, mark my words, my friend, if Ronald Billius Weasley is dead I will personally fly myself to South Africa, where I assume you are due to the reference to Afrikaans that is on my screen behind this post, and I will find you and...er...be very angry at you. So there. I have to go to bed right now, seeing as it is getting late and I am exhausted and I should have gone to bed a while ago considering the unfathomable hour that I have to wake up. I really despise Mondays. Yuck. Great chapter, however tragic. And this is an official warning: do not kill Ron. Oops, I just realized that I have no guts to warn you. This is a shameless plea, then. Please, please, please, please don't let him die. Please. Anxiously Yours, ~B.~
Madam Bones 2008-04-06 ch 6, anon.	abuseWhat the heck? What is going on? Malfoy can't really be a god, can he? Does he have completely unlimited power as opposed to Harry's almost infinite power? And even then, I have to believe that doesn't make him a god, just powerful. But is, as the DADA professor said, going to corrupt him, and will that somehow make him weaker? What is the source of this energy, the fuel for his magic? If it's not detectible to anyone, of all the geniuses and heroes and wisemen, in the Order, and it's something entirely un-earthly, as Ginny believed, then where is it from, and what does it do, and where does it get its source? And, more importantly, how can it be defeated? I hate Draco Malfoy with as passionate a vigor as the next person, but I didn't think that he was that evil, to call to being this ultimate, evilest of all evils. Maybe Harry did make a mistake when humiliating him, that was almost Slytherin of him to do, a casualty of his Gryffindor pride, perhaps? I wish he hadn't done it, but maybe Malfoy would have been corrupted anyway, his family life leads to one path and one path only, and maybe Harry is, naturally, just being Harry-esque when he blames himself for Malfoy's turn. I am anxious to read on. Nice chapter, although a little scary, I must say. I liked it a lot. Nervously Yours, ~B.~
Madam Bones 2008-04-06 ch 5, anon.	abuseWhat the !&^#&%@(!&? I know Malfoy's been up to something, especially when he got all cocky about fighting Harry, but he can penetrate his shield charm? That's almost crazy! Is his weird sepia aura like some mark of the Anti-Order? Like the Order of the Creepy-A** Snake? I am freaking out a bit! I don't like this one iota. I am going to go do the dishes while reading the next chapter. Thanks for a very intruiging one. (For the record, I can not spell that word. I tried multiple times and my efforts are futile. I am now and forevermore going to have to avoid writing that word. Great.) Yours, ~B.~
Madam Bones 2008-04-06 ch 4, anon.	abuseExcellent so far. Those two are quite the pair of characters. And I mean that in every possible meaning of character. I like them already! And I also, might I add, adore the fact that Pansy is still, forgive the horrible cheesiness of the joke, ostrich-ized. Now that I have had a coming of age, of sorts, into a new realm of teeth-grindingly cheesy jokes, I will start to wrap up this rapidly bombing review . Nice job, can't wait to read on. Yours, ~B.~
ILikeComps 2008-03-18 ch 30,	abuseAs with your first story "Order of the Phoenix", this is a wonderful story. I really liked the teasing and flirting in these stories and look forward to your next story as well. Thanks for all the hard work and sharing these with us!
Darkestshadeofgrey 2008-02-15 ch 8, anon.	abuseOh my god; it's Harry and Ginny, isn't it? Woah! That's wicked! Sorry, I had to comment. :P
SilentWhisperWolf 2008-01-04 ch 30,	abuseagh, time... never has an end or beginning.
