One of the better stories I have read on here I love that you put Neville as a strong person. That Harry and Hermione are a committed couple . That Sirus is alive and thriving. You also show Molly and Dumbly as flawed characters. That they both have agendas with Harry . That’s the one thing in books I hated . I felt neither of them truly cared for Harry . Only they cared for The boy who lived . I can’t wait to read next chapter

The way Harry acts in the early chapters is exactly how I view Dumbledore reacting to anyone. Calm , but push it too far, and you would anger.
Great Writing Author

Conversations with Luna are always so interesting. You'd think there would be some magical help against asthma.

Are they going to need to continue the Defense group besides their training? Could be a very busy year.

Must have got a minion to send the warning message - Tom wouldn't lower himself by doing it instead.

Thanks for sharing.

Are you saying that Dumbledore put on the Ring? This was not what I expected. He could have just taken caution not put on the ring so he could still live longer.

If Dumbledore did put on the Ring, why not just let him die of assisted suicide later on (by Poppy Pomfrey) instead of letting Snape kill him?

looking forward to what happens next

You meant for Hermione to say "give them my parents' number", 'the girls' dormitory" and "enter the girls' stairwell".
You meant for that special howler voice to say "Choose the traitorous Potter".

Excellent work! Enjoyed this a ton! Looks like the darkness is rising! The time will soon come for sides to be picked and bonds to either be tested or broken!

Welcome back! I had almost given up in despair that you had left us forever.

As usual, I love the changes you've made while still keeping true to the canon timeline.

Excellent beginning!

I like the role that Colin is plying in this. He is one of the many characters that are often left out. It is nice to see others included in your story. Usually, it is Neville or the girls of Gryffindor.

WOW! Just WOW! I have never read a story where the headmaster breaks down like this and I can see were Harry would see it as a first step to trusting him again. Kudos.

You have a contradiction in this chapter. You introduced Cedric as a third year which is canon, but his first year on the team. and then he is experienced. How?

Loved it cant wait to read more this is a great story

Red vs blue for the win! I love this!

Bro, when I was twelve I had 3 count em 3 girls crushing on me, and now I'm in highschool, and I woke up three days ago like: oh damn they liked me
