I really liked this. You make him seem like a kid that just thinks he deserves more, not some power hungry killer.

Am I your first review? That is exciting! Well, I have to say that you are off to a good start...and that little Voldie is pretty cute ;). You aren't making him some psycho-killer maniac, and give good explanations to all his actions. He is just an orphan who wants and feels he should be somehting more. On question: did you mean to make this different than the encounter in the sixth book? I have to say that the table turning into a dog is much more Dumbledorish than a cabinet bursting into flames. Hmm...
Well, I'm going to leave you. By the way, have you seen Edline yet? The calc grade is on there...only I can't really figure out if it's curved or not. Yikes. Ttyl later!
