Great chapter.

I know you said in your A/N that you're not quite sure where you're going with this story in terms of plot, but I really like where it's going so far. The contrasts between Hermione and Tom (especially with Tom's train of thought in that last scene) are so distinct, there's bound to be plenty of clashes between them. I especially can't wait for Tom to find out that Hermione is his competition to be top of the class. If that scene ever happens, I'm sure Tom's reaction will be priceless! Haha.

Also, I liked the references to Ke$ha and the iPhone. It adds to the feel of the story, and makes it seem so much more real and authentic.

This story has a lot of potential, so I hope you keep at it.

Great chapter. I can't wait for the next one! :)

So when I first read the description I was very doubtful of how good the story could actually be. You have surprised me though, I'm actually really fond of it so far. I think that this is a breath of fresh air when it comes to a Tom and Hermione fan fiction. I should know, I read Tom/Hermione as if it were the only thing to read on .

I would like to especially compliment you on your characterization of Tom. You captured his essences very well and if Tom were to ever really be muggle then I could see this being him very easily.

I've always had a problem with original characters that make a semi-leading part in a story, only because I feel that they are...lacking in development? I don't know how else to describe it, but the original characters you are using have not quite got out of hand and I hope that you keep it that way. Because in all honesty I'm reading for Tom and Hermione.

One more thing, the play on words that you use for the dorms is hilarious.

That is all.

I'll be keeping an eye out for your next update.

Great chapter. I love the way everything seems so planned and how realistic it seems. All the classes, the essays and the way the characters act makes me think of how plausible this story is. The story is progressing well. Update soon.

Keep up the great work and update ASAP!

great chapter

This story is really well written and I am

surprisingly enjoying the Hermione/Tom interaction.

It really is a very odd couple, but very interesting.

I am awaiting the romance!

Please please please update soon! See? You've reduced me to

begging!

so i checked my email and saw that not only did you update THIS? but you updated Tied for Last as well! i practically did a little happy dance in my chair before clicking onto this site to read...read...read! liked the chapter! now off to read Tied for last :)

Great chapter :) Can't wait to see some Tom/Hermione action

interesting. i really liked the stabs at gryfindoor and huff'n'puff lmao. more realistic to schooling these days. so i give ya a thumbs up, cause i agree with most of what you said. and im interested to see how you get little miss piss pour attitude to fall for mr. do-no wrong riddle. (and btw, i go to this insanely expensive rich school too and i'm on a scholarship and i feel like you totally nail how awkward it feels to see everyone in nice things, while yours is mediocre at best. you feel like everyone is totally judging you, so A for capturing that emotion! did you know that from personal experience?

It's definitely interesting. You've done a great job changing certain factors, like turning Hogwarts into a school for the rich and the house names. You've set up a great AU. What I'm really interested in seeing is how Tom will carry out his evil ways, seeing as there is no cruciatus curse.

I love it! :) Please update.

I love this, it's original, witty and exceptionally quirky. Please continue with it. )

Go, Speechwriter, go! Two words to summarize the story thus far: dead clever.

Looks interesting!

I loved how you tweaked the four house names. "Huff'n'Puff" made me laugh!

Looking forward for more!

An incredibly interesting and insightful first chapter. I adore the way it is completely unique from all the other Tom/Hermione stories where usually, magic is invloved, and, although I love stories with magic, this concept you've adopted is amazingly refreshing.

One of the parts of this chapter that seriously impressed me was the way you managed to keep Hermione as well as Tom's personalities as they are suppose to be, a task that can often be considered difficult.

Great beginning to your story, I can't wait for the next chapter, so update soon.
