this is awesome

*muted clapping and cheering*

TROLL...MINUS. MINUS..MINUS! Yes ...TROLL vastly negative! Even JKR failed this chapter spectacularly. Any so called author who could kill off Sirius has FAILED to create a story with any merit whatsoever! Yes, I'll admit that up until this point your story was quite well done you have IRREVOCABLY lost all credibility in the entertainment aspect of this writing. This is a common flaw in even storytellers of your calibre of excellence. Please try to correct this abomination. Might I suggest that in your very next chapter you erase this egregious error by some creative license that involves a dream or the curse bouncing off leaving Sirius ALIVE AND WELL!

Love the Indiana Jones reference!

A/N2 Of course Mr. Henry Jones Jr. was born and raised in Indiana.

Why couldn't they just have someone come and see Harry, use Polyjuice to make him look like that other person and walk out while the other person used the invisibility cloak or apparate away? Or even simpler, why would Harry not just walk out under the cloak, with nobody being the wiser? That has bugged me since I read the book for the first time.

This fic is beautifully written. The fifth and sixth years had good changes done from canon. Though the final year (until the Malfoy Manor chapter) has a substandard plotline, the overall story is marvellous.

The Final Chapter and the Epilogue are fantastic. I like Rose's character and how she found an ingenious solution for Harry's plan.

At last, the end - I've read ALL your stories. Thank goodness for the happy ending here; I'd've hated to end my quest to read all your works on a sad note. I hope you've chosen to move from fan fiction to crafting your own worlds and characters!

I don't know if the author reads comments, i just want to say:
This is now my canon. Hope you're happy.

As I'm only now reading this, it's been years and very few of those stories were ever updated or finished, sadly.

Well, in one way, Snape's potion did not work. Harry is not filled with hate, and no one seems to hate him.

There is also the speculation that post owls have a form of apparation or there are magical airways for post owls.

They may take their OWLS later, but the curriculum might not even be close. Hermione should have to test into a year based on Beauxbatons grades/classes, not Hogwarts. We've all seen that Hogwarts is NOT the premiere school they pretend to be.

Dumbledore is probably happy to get her away from Harry. Her birthday is only 19 days into the term, not "halfway". He's making excuses, probably to keep them apart.

Really, with tens thousands of HP fanfics out there, it is going to happen that more than one person comes up with the same idea without ever knowing of the others.
