Sad ... but true. I've always been wondering what would become of Dudley, because we can tell from the final book that he's a nice kid at heart. I can't bear to think what damage his parents have done to him though.

Brilliantly written as always. :)

Excited about reading this story but cringe everytime I read the Professor's name. You have it spelt wrong in this chapter, it should be "McGonagall". :)

I love this story. Canon and brilliant and beautiful.

Thanks for the story !

A great story with a really cute ending.
I'm currently writing a story where Harry meets Dudley after many years too but I'm not sure if I'll ever upload it... Still, it's fun to write!

Oh my gosh I got goosebumps. I'm majoring in social work right now, hoping to work with children some day. This hit me very close to home. Wonderful work so far. I love it so much.

This was brilliant! I especially liked how believable you made the characters, particularly Harry. It was also nice to see the relationship between Ginny and him just being hinted at; you still conveyed how they would rely on each other and understand each other.

Seeing Hermione being a bit devious at getting back at David was entirely in character too, it was a nice touch to bring her out as Muggle liaison.

Very minor quibble: there's not really personal days in the American sense in the UK, you get sick days and holiday days, and they're entirely separate. Other than that, all the official stuff read very convincingly to me.

On to the sequel!

I really like where you're going with this, Dudley being gay puts a nice twist on the story! Harry's reaction is very believable too; of course he wouldn't just waltz in to Privet Drive, without a care in the world.

"He remembered this terrible moment from his own childhood-that sense that what one was hearing just couldn't be true, but oh how one wanted it to be" - this was excellent!

Oh my God

I really love this story! It's so touching and reminds me of the Chicken Soup Book for Teenage Soul

I like this! The stories you write are really original, and really well written.

Thoroughly enjoyed reading this again.

Liked this fic :)

wow. just...wow!
