Great chapter, Cant wait for more.

OMG, it's updated!

Yaaaay!

I really, really liked this chapter, because it was very entertaining to see how Tom and Hermione are one one hand pretty compatible, but on the other hand as idfferent as to people can get.

My guess would be that they'll find out she's not wealthy not far from now, because, well, you do notice the difference between the clothes, don't you?

I was so relieved when I found out Hermione didn't make a fool of herself on the party night.

I always suffer with the heroine and I've taken a special liking to you Hermione.

Thanks a lot for the great read, I hope you'll update soon- but if you don't, it's okay, because the chapters will be worth the wait :D

May I like, marry Have A Nice Day? 'Cause I'm pretty sure we can find a country that will allow me to marry a story. (I mean a lady actually married her dog so I don't think it's that ridiculous lol)

Ok, I have a confession to make : I don't know why but the "Have-a- nice-day-Tom-Riddle" seems more creepier than the "Tide-For-Last-Tom-Riddle" lol and The Have-a-nice-day-Riddle just scares the holy living piss out of me! (I'm really not kidding)

But what can I say, I still love him... What The Hell! I'm a Tom-Riddle fanatic after all! I would love him even if he had pigtails... seriously!

Whoops... sorry, I got a little carried away :)

Well, first of all I'm pretty excited that not only Abraxas but Cygnus is in the story as well :)

Furthermore, I think that you've put the 90's characters, such as Harry and Ron, somewhere in London...? And all the 40's students, such as Tom Riddle, in Hogwarts Academy, right?

I also can't remember if I told you that I really like the idea of a Hogwarts with absolutely no magic :) Yap, I think that's pretty awesome and a very original idea cause there are not many Harry Potter fics with no magic at all :D

I like the idea of Tom as a "bizarrely cute, strangely nice, undeniably intelligent bad boy" who also smokes and stuff... yeah, that's how you called him if i recall correctly :)

But actually I never imagined Tom Riddle as one who smokes cause 1) he hates everything that has to do with muggles (and I think cigarets are a muggle invention) and 2) because dear old Tommy has something against death (as every Harry Potter reader probably knows) and he has done everything in his power in order not to die. That's why I think that it would be pretty stupid if Tom Riddle died from something like cancer :)

But because I know that this is a non-magic fic (that's why i love it so much and, of course because you are so talented that you make everything look so real and natural) and because there are no muggles (and since I think Tommy has the money for a cure if he ever gets cancer) I just adore the idea... And I have to admit that that God dammit cigaret makes him look hotter lol

And that pencil behind his ear reminds me of myself 4 years ago, when I was in elementary school... cause everywhere I went I had a pencil behind my ear, another one in my pocket and a piece of paper in my hands (what? You never know when you'll need it!)

Moreover, if I didn't mention it before, the name Iris is one of my favorites :) (In Greek Iris except from the inside of the eye, Iris also means rainbow) it's such a pretty name :D

And I'm glad that things are looking up for Hermione, Idk what I would do if I didn't have my friends with me and I really don't want to think about it...

AND I still don't understand why, when we're the same age, u still write so absolutely brilliant! I write too, but I never post anything because I have to admit that I'm afraid of criticism. I don't want the others to judge me... (that's why I never judge them lol)

Anyway, that chapter was fan-bloody-tastic! (as always of course) and you are just phantasmagorical and absolutely phenomenal!

Please don't make us wait so long. Seriously, it's worse than a Crucio from Voldemort himself. :) so don't forget to update ASAP!

~~nAFSICA~~

P.S Dude, that's the biggest review I've ever written! My fingers will never be the same again lol Well, I'm sure you deserve it :D

and sorry if half of the things I said were really stupid I just wanted to give you a huge review :D

Thought it might be something like that. lol... its really good anyway. Great chapter and i hope you write more soon.

Too much swearing. Overall boring. No, not interested yet.

great chapter

So, I've read chapter two and I find it totally amusing how you've managed to change that whole Hogwarts-bloodstatus stuff into a Hogwarts-wealth situation.

And I so dig Tom, even though (or maybe because) he's such a man whore and actually placed cigarette burns on his minions.

Way to go being awesome without the magic!

ANyhow, I've also read your other fic (Note the guilt because I don't review that one) and I must say I even prefer this one.

I just think it's a bit wittier?

(That's not an insult towards the other one, by the way, that's great, too) I love the independant flair this one has, it's just different and I'm not constantly bored because of ever repeating clichés...

So, please do continue this soon!

Thanks, I guess ;D

Oh my God, I've read the description of this story about a dozen times, but always decided not to read it!

Now tat I did it out of desperation about a lack of alternatives, I mus admit that it's pretty awesome!

Okay, the Weasleys being well-off was a bit funny, but since they're not even important I figured I don't care xDD

SO, about Tom:

I'm a fangirl and I love him in this fanfic, so I guess you pulled him off quite well :D

I'll read on now, let's see what chpter two's got to offer :D

Okay, so admittedly i wasn't sure if this would actually be a good story considering it has no magic in it, but obviously i was wrong. I love it xD

Haha, evil evil Tom. Cigarette burns? Nice. I was wondering how you'd get him to torture those guys since he couldn't just punch them or whatever. So passe, for Tom Riddle :)

So to state the obvious, Update! :D

Have to say I love this fic... bit dubious at first but the way you've turned it into a social study is brilliant. It's really refreshing to see all of this from a new angle. Only thing I wonder about is the curriculum, I'm studying A-levels in the UK and I don't recognize half those subjects... or at least there called different stuff. No offence intended as its excellent anyway, artistic licence and all that shiz, keep writing and also just wanted to mention how great Tied For Last is. hopefully that was suitably sycophantic ] please update soon.

As a total nerd, dirty hippy, and Tomione fangirl, I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate this story. As well as catering to my tastes, this fic is wonderfully original and down-to-earth. Down with VoldeMart indeed.

Think of this as a review for both chapters. I really wouldn't worry about scaling down the language. I know when I walk through the hallways of my school, hearing strings of curses within a five minute passing period is completely normal. Maybe private school is different, but I highly doubt it considering the transfer students we got this year.

ANYwho, once again, interesting concept here. I'm digging the whole irony of Tom as a Muggle. I'm also curious as to how he manages to control his flock of sheep without the Cruciatus curse. Cigarette burns can only do so much, right? Oh, and I hope Hermione tells him off for smoking. We can't have the Dark Lord dying of Emphysema or lung cancer before he takes over the world!

I wish I could end on something more insightful, but I conclude wih this: VoldeMart- Always the most evil. Always. :)

Interesting plot so far. Looking forward to the next update.

please update soon. soo into the story. LOVE IT!

Brilliant! (As expected from you)

I love this story so far! I can't wait to see what you do with it. I wonder if Merrythought will have Riddle and Hermione debate each other since they both so obviously passionate for their positions on the matter...

Anyways, thanks for posting this!

Lots of love!
