TardisIsTheOnlyWayToTravel 6/19/10 . chapter 2
"After all, you can't been seen out in those raggy old things," said his mum, throwing one of Dudley's old pullovers to Harry. Harry caught the pullover and, for some reason, did a little dance. "I'm free, I'm free!" he sang in a squeaky voice. When he caught Dudley staring at him, Harry turned away, laughing. No, thought Dudley. I'm definitely normal compared to him.

Great story:) Is there a sequel?

Yeah, yeah, not bad, not bad at all. It was a good story, and keeping it to just the summer allowed you to keep it short but still feel like a full story.
Grand job there then!
Cheers!

Wow!
Spectacular! Just amazing! I do not know if you will actually see this, but really, this is the best story I have seen on Fan Fic to date!
Wonderful. Not only do I mean you have a good story line. That is, I mean, yeah, it is a fairly good idea for a story, and certainly captivating, but the way you write, you have just the right amount of detail, without dragging on about it all day long! I am reading Moby Dick right now, Talk about LONG WINDED! GEEZZEE!
Anyhow, really good gramatically, and well thought out.
Furthermore, let me please compliment you on the very wonderful fact that you have 28.5k words and only 8 chapters! I get SO sick of these 400 word chapters everyone seems to write. Good, solid chaps..
I do worry that perhaps you will end up tiing up the story in a rush, but solid start, very solid start!
CHEERS!

Good story thusly... Really nice, never read one in the POV of Dudley.
The only problem that I see with it is that you did not (so far) take into account that Harry would get into trouble for it. You see, when Dobby did majic, Harry got in trouble for it, and when Harry blew up Aunt Marge, well, he got in trouble for that, neither of which was intentional on Harry's part. So I should think that in this case they would (of course) assume that it was Harry, and not Dud, thusly causing more problems for Harry...
(ok ok, I JUST read the bit about Dud getting an invite to Hogwarts... SO Humm, I guess you bring up something that had never been covered, and thus a non-issue)
Cheers!

Highly Impresive, I was really not expecting a story to turn out with such esquisite language, and the large coherency and originality of the plot, but it was very appealing to my person. I must note, however, the fact that the end was rather rushed, and confusing, I should consider checking through it, rebuilding a bit of it and adding more details to Dudley's thoughts, and decitions torwards his newly accepted fact of magick blood and wizardry. It's apparent to me that he chose fleur as an aid, but how about if he considered the fact of finding his brief help at Arthur's investigation and the Ministry of magick's research as an option to his future, as an atractive option to join the Aurors in aid of magick criminals? Perhaps a sequel could help here, although not highly recomended it seems like a good choice if worked in a pleasant way. Ibelieve you have the skills for such task, however keep it up. Good Job.

Really good!

I am intrigued by how you played this out. A tip: you don't /have/ to state the full name of a side character (like Vernon or Petunia) in the beginning whenever they say something. I found that rather irritating. _ Other than that, I like the idea. Is Petunia a witch? You should write like an epilogue or at least tell us what happens later. _ Tirah now!

The END? I really hope you're going to write a sequel because this wasn't quite...erm, fulfilling in the end. I mean, is Dudley going to go to Hogwarts or what? You know, that sort of thing. Anyway, great SO FAR!

Thanks to everyone who's read and reviewed. Hope you enjoyed it. I'm rewriting and, hopefully, improving it now, and I'll be using your comments for guidance. If anyone wants to be a beta for the second version, let me know here or owl me at FA Park (my name there: Amaliia).

What! That's the end! I can't believe it; it can't be over, there's still so much more to write! The indignation!

But as far as this chapter goes, it was decent, the kiss thing was probably a little bit too sudden, or maybe not. I wouldn't have kissed a guy I'd only known a few days, but I'm sure other girls would-so there you have it.

Good soul searching on Dudley's part. Realistic too, I can think of times when I have wondered the very same things about myself. Keep up the good writing. And for crying out loud, this fic is not over-UPDATE!

Yey! Cool stuff. Sequel?

Woohoo! Dudley/Fleur goodness. The ending was totally sweet, even though Fleur seemed to forgive Dudley a bit too quickly. How about a D/F one-shot? ;)
