From what Luna saw in her vision, it looks like Harry will need the support of Blaise's group. I like the way that Blaise let Harry know that he likes him. I also like the way the Blaise stepped back. Blaise made his position known. Now he'll let Harry make the next move. I hope that Harry doesn't get frightened away. Harry will stand firm in battle situations, but he is only just learning to stand up for himself emotionally. I hope he drops Ron and Ginny.

Will Hermoine ever wise up? She is such a stickler for following the rules, about all information found in books being fact, and about all authority figures being obeyed at all times, thatit is disgusting! Hermoine is supposed to be the most intelligent witch in Hogwarts. Well, reciting facts from books is fine, but a person must know how to think for themselves. Harry is supposed to be her friend, but while she SEEMS supportive, she is quick to tell him that he is always wrong, and that he should go to Dumbledore for everything. She seems to be getting as bad as Ron and Ginny.

Harry's relationship with Ron is very unhealthy...FOR HARRY. Ron is turning on Harry every time a crisis, major minor or non-existant, comes up. Yet he expects Harry to accept his insincere apologies, and for Harry to continue to support RON, no matter what Ron does. Harry's going to get an ulcer if he keeps trying to be Ron's friend when Ron ISN'T his friend.

I think that Harry needs to let Ron go, because I agree with what the Slytherin trio talked about after meeting Harry on the train. After Ron betrayed him during the tournement, he really isn't trustworthy anymore. Ron keeps proving his perfidy again and again. That scene in the bathroom was a prime example.

Hmm. Blaise is thinking about Harry's mouth. That bodes well for the future. Hermoine Ron and Ginny are just annoying! They are not helping Harry by questioning him like he an enemy!

What a shock! It looks like Dumbledore finally got a hold of some competant people!

To lose someone that you love to death forces a person to mature. To begin to question their own lives and the greater world around them. Harry was introspective as he and the other boys got ready for bed that night. He came to the realization that they were still at the boy level, while he had been forced to grow up a bit. I think that it is good for him to join the Blaise's group. He needs people that he can talk with, to express himself and understand the wizarding world better. Hermoine Ron and Ginny, at the carriages, just seemed to batter at Harry. There is a difference between talking with and listening to people (conversation), and talking TO them without trying to understand their veiwpoint. I look forward to seeing how joining this group will impact on Harry.

he needs to dump ron i mean how needs enemies with a friend like THAT!

Ron is very heavy and he won't change. He will jealous about Harry the rest of his life. It's wonderful about Blaise kissing Harry. Harry need twelve person to gain the war who were they?

Wow. Emotionally intense, wonderful chapter. You did the argument between Harry and Ron really, really well.. I was very drawn in. I love your Luna, and Neville, and that there are many others that practice the old ways.

And the ending bit with Blaise? I'm close to having goosebumps.

Really good story and chapter. Thanks for sharing with us!

Awesome story so far.

I don't know why he's still friend with them. Dumby need his weapon to kill Voldy but he never look for his happiness.

Hello

I have been reading your story since the chapter 10 and i must said that i love it

Ron and Ginny are bastards. i think hermione should break up with him

gr cant we kick them out of our sandbox yet? They don't play well with the other children *whine* *pout*

I hope he joins the group! And dammit why didn't Blaise show up. Guess that would have sent the naughties into a complete tizzy..but boy would that have been fun.
