Wow I really love this chapter. Sirius was always one of my favorite adults and I always loved RemusxSirius (friendhip!) its so adorable lol. I can see the Bellatrix-Sirius relationship too. I love how you invent things that nobody really thinks of and they fit perfectly into the story. Anyways, GREAT chapter and I hope you update soon. :)

You did a wonderful job with Sirius! He's really a rather complex character, and while he is sarcastic and funny, there are so many elements that make him up. His whole relationship with the Marauders was well done, and his constant wondering about Peter, both before and after, was excellent. And I loved Bella being his favourite cousin! That was so realistic! The parallels between their characters do make it almost impossible for him not to feel this on some level. That said, I'd love to see your take on Andromeda, because I think that she'd be interesting too.

Very good job of getting into Sirius' head. He always sounded rather sure of himself in the books, but here we see some of his insecurities on display. You also took his feelings of being useless seen in Book 5 to a whole new level. I also like his views on the changes that James and Remus go through in their lives, especially his guilt over "The Prank" that could have got Remus sentenced and killed.

Bella his favorite cousin!? Nice twist. And the final two paragraphs were classic.

Well done!

Poor Sirius...

You know, i started reading a really good story with a Good Bella once.

Ah Rosie... haha I like it so far!

This was great. I love that you made her become an Auror first. I love that she was about to be married and a mother and that she lost that, and that's why she ends up alone. I love how she's so set on being Ravenclaw, I love her relationship with Albus. Just lovely. There is definitely not enough written about Minerva.

So sorry it's taken me ages to get to this. It was a very good showing of Fleur's personality. I like that you didn't make her shallow and stupid, as some do. I like that she doesn't enjoy being pretty - and the insight when she realizes that she also misjudged Harry and Krum was great.

I love that she was interested with Bill at first sight, but didn't fall in love until later. Really, of course she didn't think about him then, it was the third task and then Cedric's death!

I love her reaction to finally getting a Weasley jumper. She so deserved it.

I love her and Fred's bonding moment. And how Victoire is what brightens the family again, when they need it so badly.

Omg this chapter, Im not gonna say its my favorite because they all are in their own way but omg i really love it!! im curious; is minerva really younger than dumbledore? and the same age as tom riddle? just wondering where you mightve heard this but even if you made it up (which is damn creative, i never wouldve thought of putting those two together) i have to say it makes this even better. Great job. :D

Great job on really turning McGonagall into an actual person. We never heard anything about her past, and you crafted a great version of it. I did like how you made her kind of similar to Hermione as a little girl. And her thoughts about Tom Riddle? Brilliant stuff, especially her need to take a shower whenever she's around him.

I think showing her reluctance at having Lupin attend school also makes her more human and shows she does have flaws. Also, nice thoughts from her regarding Fred.

Awesome job. I wonder if, in the future, you could do a chapter on Flitwick. I always felt he was one of the really cool teachers and deserving of some more air time . . . or page time, I guess. Forgive the radio guy here.

Keep on writing.

I love professor Mcgonagall... i invented a character who was her son once... good times.

Wow, killer backstory for Minnie! It was so sad, but it did explain a lot of her character, which I love at the best of times. The snippets of genuine-Minerva that we see, particularly every single line of her kick-** dialogue in DH, show her to be strong and fiery, and with a sense of humour. You captured her brilliantly here. I also thought that her relationship with Albus was well done.

I loved it!! Fleur's so brilliant when she's given depth, and I really liked what you did with her! I thought that the fact that she was pregnant was what brought happiness again was great, and that the Weasleys were really her family.

Aw now this is a good chapter. I guess it's cool cause she wasn't part of the original harry potter family but then towards the end she is and thats whats so lovable about her. i mean to tell the truth i never much cared for fleur but this chapter makes her great. Great job i cant wait to see who you pick next. Theres so many people

Once again, a great job of peeling back the surface of these characters and showing what really makes them tick. Fleur is a complete person in this. I really like how you show her beauty as a blessing and a curse, by the fact people don't take her that seriously. Pretty touching bit to show how she started to develop a nice bond with Fred and then, just like that, it's gone.

Couple typos I spotted: "day it" should be "say it"

"fin their life" should be "find their life"

Keep on writing.

Great chapter. I always felt Lee's character deserved a little more depth. Very realistic that he would feel some bitterness from time to time that Fred and George will always be closer to each other than to him. I really liked the opening paragraph talking about Lee's love for Quidditch and how he wasn't that good, and how that led him into commentating on it. I can so relate to that. I sucked at sports as a kid, but still loved baseball, football & hockey, so I decided to pursue a career reporting on it.

Good end, too, with Lee slowly realizing how much Alicia means to him. I liked his perception of love, how it's not the "at first sight" thing seen in so many movies, but how it really is a gradual thing and after a while, it suddenly hits you that you are in love.

Some typos I spotted: "candidatures" should be "candidates"

"long while beard" should be "long white beard"

"Not Fred, thought" should be "Not Fred, though"

"And that mean" should be "And that means"

Terrific chapter. Keep up the good work.
