His logic about Harry staying with the Dursleys is not very rational at all. He has lost the pot here, making Harry live there for nearly two decades of his life would have had some adverse effects on him. I wonder if Albus realzies that Harry could have truned out to be more like Tom if continued liviing at the Dursleys, being neglected and abused by his only living family.

how many second chances are they giving dmbldor?
harry gave hermione just one.
dmbl's behavior is beyond any redemption or forgiveness; leader of light or not.
his own admission that he is not likely to change leaves me waiting for the major betrayal. let your guard down just once, and . . .

U really should finish this story. It very well written.

The timing of the plotting is just right!

not native but assumed you'd had them portkey elsewhere

well, I know you're American.
How do I know that? Only Americans have house numbers like 2187. It's a very long road in England if the numbers go over 800 lol!
Enjoying it.

I like the story alot. I hope you return to it!

Ugh, you do intend the creepy pedophile to be likeable. No, thanks!

Wow, Sara is super creepy. Who is that flirty and suggestive to a child?! Is she a pedophile? I didn't see any warnings about sexual assault... I hope you don't intend her to be likeable because she comes off as super gross.

I've enjoyed your easy-reading, carefree presentation style.
Before reading (I sourced this story from other author's favorites) I read some reviews. Wow! Some people get their knickers in a twist over gafla (reference Dune, the Frank Herbert books; minor trifles, gadflies).
Thank you for your creative art (especially as a first time author!).
You make a positive outlook, with sufficient detail (but not a bunch of word-stuffing or world-building) to make an enjoyable reading pass-time.
And this is just one summer holiday!

So where is Hermione in all this?

Three vaults and he has barely that much? What? SO much for being an old family lol.

Do you never use a dictionary?
Your ubiquitous misuse of PASSED where you should be using PAST and PAST where you should be using PASSED is ridiculous. Examples of both are rife in this chapter(29). Quite annoying, so please correct them.

Ciao.

THIS! I read this YEARS ago! I don't know if it was here, or somewhere else, but at the time, I forgot to save it to my library. I lost it, and couldn't find it for AGES! At some point, I wondered if I had just imagined it all and gaslit myself into thinking it was real. I am overwhelmed with joy to have found it once again and to know it's real. Truly a wonderful, amazing fic 3 3 3

please continue this!
