You are a good writer, but my feelings on this are mostly fury and hatred for Umbridge and Filch. I want to tortures to them that make what they did to Ron in your story look like a scrape. I know ways to torture people physically, mentally, and emotionally, and they would live through the stuff people would think would kill them for days, weeks, even months...

A truly amazing, harrowing and beautifully written story. It inspired righteous anger over the injustice of the situation, sympathetic pain and laughter in the lighter moments. Excellent work!

Great story, loved everyone's reactions to Umbridge's evil, very naturalistic.

:D

Grim and gory and very, very good and sweet at some points. Well done. :)

Awww poor Ronnie! And its nice to see some trio friendship :)

please update soon :)

really, really, wow...

this is really good! are you still thinking about writing a third epilogue?

This was a brilliant story. I think you should write up Umbridge's trial- I've always wanted to see her get whats coming to her. I'd also be interested in the other Weasleys' reactions to this incident. I hope you write that 3rd epilogue.

poor Ron. He's so sweet and loyal. I really liked this. Your writing is brilliant! You made me cry!

Really enjoyed the story. The whipping too was well described even down to Ron taking his vest off and the reactions of the others when they saw his back after it was over.

Excellent.

Aw, this was amazing! I loved the references to the Dursleys, and how Harry was just so awkward at the end, and Hermione getting all emotional... Lovely. :)

And I can't wait for Umbridge's trial, if you decide to write it.

gosh you're an awesome writer...i could almost feel everything Ron went through! don't know how you do it...this was very good and i'm so glad i found it!

... is there a sequel? xD

Er, Lol, to my knowledge, Harry does not call Ron "old son" at all, let alone 1-2 times every chapter. xD But, otherwise, good fic.

I've read this story and forgot to review it. Oops. :) This was a very good friendship stories... one of the best out there actually. And the fact that you incorporated Umbridge taking out corporal punishment (which she probably would've done, had she been allowed) was a good way to prove that Harry did have a good batch of friends. I loved it! Thank you so much for sharing!
