![]() ![]() ![]() Dammnnn, great story. Do glad I found it when the trilogy is done this would have been fun to follow along with while you wrote, certainly has a hook. Very intrigued to see Ron get manipulated by Malfoy, that boy needs some serious therapy. Very interested in seeing how Harry being a "poster boy" for the ministry works out for things |
![]() ![]() ![]() Well that escalated quickly! Interested if we'll find out what Nott was up to |
![]() ![]() ![]() Luna is saucy! Interested to read the dynamics of the Weasleys and Harry throughout this series |
![]() ![]() ![]() I'm just going to ignore everything that I think is out of Ron's character for this story, thank you for the warning at the top! Intriguing set up |

![]() ![]() ![]() I really enjoyed your story, and I'm looking forward to reading the continuations. Especially to see how Harry and Ginny's relationship evolves, and how they work as a team to kick Voldemort and anyone who messes with them. What I don't like is how easily Hermione has been forgiven. She betrayed Harry in an even worse way than Ron did. Ron turns his back on her because he has motives (wrong ones, but motives nonetheless), but she turns her back on him just so Ron won't be upset, not caring that Ron isn't alone because there are so many people who think like him, while Harry is left abandoned. And she again chooses Ron over Harry each and every time. She only approaches Harry to try to fix something, when Ron has already snubbed her for going to the ball with Krum, and then publicly insulted her in the worst way. That is, when she's going to be left alone, she seeks to “make up with Harry”. Out of selfish interests, because she knows that no one else in the school feels any real appreciation for her. And Harry, he forgives her too easily despite all the damage she has done to him. He even told her in the previous chapter that she will always be his best friend! How!? The one who betrayed him so miserably her best friend? Ginny being his girlfriend doesn't change that she is now his best friend too. In fact, even Luna has been a better friend this year to him than Hermione. I think that whirlwind, full-on reconciliation is a bit too much, and spoils the story a bit, even though I still love it despite that important detail. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Hermione chasing after Ron again? |
![]() ![]() ![]() Your bashing of Hermione ruins a great story. |
![]() ![]() ![]() So I get that you sidelined Hermione to have Ginny be the help, but she looks so bad for still sticking with Ron. You messed up badly here |
![]() ![]() ![]() loved that chapter, but that took a DARK turn |
![]() ![]() ![]() nice chappter |
![]() ![]() ![]() rofl ginny is soooo manupulative |
![]() ![]() ![]() Ugh, talk about dumb and dumber. Other than that so glad HarrySirius are together. Little surprised Mollys on board but not complaing, lol! |
![]() ![]() ![]() I really like how you turned this around on Ginny. While her intentions where to become a part of Harrys life and in theory should have not be a big deal there is collateral damage from her machinations. The difference is she realizes it and while its too late to fix it she can do what she can to not make it worse. (I hope!) |
![]() ![]() ![]() I was wondering why annoying overprotective Ron hadnt made an appearance. I like the story very much but Im not sure how i feel about this manipulative Ginny. Its not bad per se but it doesnt feel quite right either. |
