You made a good point about Hageid's speech patterns. Robbie Coltrane said in an interview he used a northern westlands accent, or close to. So Harry would become 'Harr-ee'. And Hermione would become 'Hurr-my-owe-nee'.
It's a phonetic difference in his speech pattern that can be achieved in print by sounding out slowly and phonetically spelling Hagrid's words.

Yay for freed Dobby!

Like how you got rid of snakey without having Harry do it. Like involving Bill, too, and how they're all working AROUND Albus, lol. He'd sht if he knew he'd missed out on all the basilisk money!

Well hello magically appearing Crooks! Glad Hermione has an owl and a cat, somehow.

When does Hermione get Crooks?

When does Harry get back the things and money - and elves? - that Albus stole from him?

I am loving this story and your style of writing. Granted I think the "Harry and Hermione running around naked" is a bit pedo especially since young teens that age absolutely don't play naked together just to be...what, comfy? or whatever... *cough*youreaperv*cough* But I do like the OTHER arcs in this story. I like how you've made Petunia and even Vernon be a lot more like actually-normal people and I like how you're showing that Albus is not the sweet li'l twinkly ol' grandpa... I also like how you've made Harry suspect Ron of being Albus' spy (plus not liking how rude and gross Ron is). Great job!

Re: TEENAGERS..."Nudity has nothing to do with sex"...um...teeee'naaaa'gerzzz

Eh, jumping the shark a bit with SuperDuperOverPoweredAndCapable!Harry and !Hermione, there. Tone it down...

I like it when Augusta Longbottom gets to be the badass!

What was Hermione's wand made of?
Why do people give Ollivander their real name when it's not necessary?
Wonder how many people have tried to "accidentally" tidy up his manky old shop?
What about Crooks?

Thanks for the Story, Author.

i think you meant "tuition" not "tutelage"

lol nevermind, i saw some of the reviews for future chapters and skimmed a few of them, and harry/hermione/neville definitely do not speak or behave like real children, and harry/hermione's relationship progressing like that before they even turn 13 is not only unrealistic but really messed up lol. gonna stop reading now i guess. it seems like most harry/hermione fics don't really seem to have a grip on reality, no offense.

interesting idea for a story but what i never understand in the few "Good Petunia" fics out there is why Petunia is always so afraid of her son Dudley seeing her treat Harry decently. it doesn't match up with the way i see her in canon, since i got the vibe that petunia treated harry that way because of her bitterness and jealousy towards magic and her sister. it's nice seeing her having a soft side towards harry and recognizing that he's a child and treating him accordingly, but i feel like petunia would do it grudgingly and wouldn't fear vernon/dudley but would rather just brush off any small acts of kindness towards harry. it just feels so weird seeing her act afraid of her own son finding out since she's the adult lol. she can do what she wants. but then again, maybe this isn't the right story for me anyway since I don't normally enjoy harry/hermione fics lol. i'll probably stop reading by the time it gets to that part if it doesn't catch my interest though. just wanted to comment to say that this does seem like a nice idea for a fic! i hope that later in the fic, vernon and dudley also become more decent like petunia has started to.
