![]() ![]() ![]() Not sure if you read these anymore. But I live 40 minutes away from Robbers Cave. Infact I have stayed at that exact camp used. |
![]() ![]() ![]() The story's good, I swear, but the moment Granger wins it's done for me. |
![]() ![]() ![]() It might be stupid, but I imagined a flaming Blackjack - from PJO, in case you didn't know, which I don't think so - transformed into a zebra and begin flaming, saying, "Let's go, boss! We have a nation to terrorize!" |
![]() ![]() ![]() I'm just starting to read this, and the reason I chose this story is because it has the highest favorites and follows I've ever seen on this site! |
![]() ![]() ![]() A sound and impressive concept, especially considering that the author did not receive any formal education in genetics. The presence of an Atlantean marker sequence inherited in a Mendelian pattern is a very interesting and original idea, but it does not explain individual variation of magical aptitude (e.g., compare Dumbledore to Neville). The part where Harry rules out the possibility of a polygenic background determining magical aptitude seems to be wrong. Rather than considering the presence or absence of a set of genes (as part of a complex adaptation), what really matters for most human traits is the presence of sequence variants within established genomic (coding and even non-coding) sequences, resulting in some of our proteins functioning only slightly differently in various individuals. In fact, there are many human traits that have a polygenic/multifactorial background and still exert a binary effect on the phenotype (either expressed or not). These are called threshold traits, and the background genetic variation comes from QTLs: quantitative trait loci. In other words, the magical affinity of the human brain (or its attunement to a mystical source of energy such as magic in the Potterverse) can be imagined as a quantitative trait showing Gaussian distribution in human populations. We also need to set a threshold over which an individual is capable of using such power - i.e., someone being a wizard or a witch is a threshold trait, but this does not mean that all such individuals have the same level of power. |
![]() ![]() ![]() That Matrix one makes me want to see a rationalist in Mage: The Awakening, possibly as a Mastigos where they can learn that objective distance is a Lie lol (and I'd bet they'd study all the different Path perspectives and achieve CHIM). |
![]() ![]() I rarely ever comment on fics - unless I have a lot of free time AND am not feeling lazy AND there's something unique and worth commenting. But this chapter was SOOO SOOO GOOOD that I couldn't resist. Oh wow! By Merlin's ******, this is spectacular! I cracked up real bad when Draco saw his father. And then you - you, cruel author with no regard for my stomach which hurts from laughter - you decide to have Harry mock-grovel under Malfoy FOLLOWED BY MALFOY DOING THE SAME TO MCGONAGALL! I this fic weren't already tagged 'complete', I'd bribe you with my whole bank account to finish it. |
![]() ![]() ![]() That ending was hilarious! |
![]() ![]() ![]() oh god she believed it lmao (dying in a good way rn) |
![]() ![]() ![]() oh god lol |
![]() ![]() My favorite character is Fred or George, but I'm not sure which one |
![]() ![]() Quirrell is a very convincing good guy. If it weren't so obvious that he was evil I would really think that was not a villain. This scene was a good example: all of the 'good' professors (including Snape) are plotting to resolve the tension immediately by letting Hermione take a short detention, but Quirrell, who wants to provoke a larger scale disaster, takes the apparent high road by giving out points to negate the message that the consequences were meant to send. |
![]() ![]() What was the one obvious choice? I dont get it |
![]() ![]() ![]() I love the Omake Files on chapter 11 |
