Pew wanted to read a story by you again and since I never truly got into the accidential animagus series I started it. But I think Harry being super Harry and Snape has to be good no matter what overshadow several good plots/ideas.

1. Harry has to be always be better than others in particular Hermione. Yes you write she has the edge in wandless magic, but it never translates to her getting anything done. Same is true for all the other kids and often even the adults. All exsist to be plot devices to fail where Harry doesn't or to set up the stage so Harry can shine.

2. Harry has inexplicible knowledge/instincts. Notice how in canon Harry tends to be wrong all the time. Which makes it so funny when fans complain Hermione should have trusted HArry's superior instincts in book 6 about Malfoy. Based on historic precedence Hermione should have concluded, if Malfoy is Harry's first suspect then Malfoy has to be innocent.

3. Snape bing secretly good. The major problem with this is that unless you go for a major rewrite of his character (which the story didn't) he is not. A good person does not bully children and show such massive favourtism as a teacher. And no he is not forced to do so due to his position as a double agent (that position would actually logically allow him to be a model of impartiality), so it must be what he wants to do.
But more importantly the story actually tells us the canon version that Snape only flipped sides very late (presumably due to the whole Lily got targeted by the prophecy sittuation as in canon). Problem is that means Snape joined the Death Eater on his own vollition presumably because he actually believes in their evil dogma (at least to some degree).

4. Harry assumeing Snape is good is just inexplicable. Some codded flower language can't make up for the constant outright bullying as a teacher the other houses, Grifindor in particular recieve from his side.
Also Harry kind of ignores the treatment his sister recieves from Slytherin with Snape's help. Snape might not resort to ourtright blood purist language and behaviour (anymore), but he certainly covers for Slytherin's who do and makes sure they don't get punished for rascist motivated bullying.
At best Harry could assume that Snape isn't out to kill him. But he certainly would have to concede that Snape will use a referee position to favour Slytherin. Simply because evidence proofs that is what he is doing for the house cup all the time.

Overall nice ideas, but I really can't get past some of the tropes I just don't like. At other points the implications of some plots were not executed to their logical conclusion simply because the author wanted to have certain characters and events in certain ways.

A competent Quirrel was a nice touch though. It would have been better, if Harry's mistrust of him wasn't so out of the blue though (in particular with a Snape who behaves just as antagonistic as in canon). It would have been better had there been an actual reason (like some observations of shady behaviour) or maybe even better had HArry actually trusted and admired Quirrel only to learn the hard lesson later.

Fleamont and euphenia were James's grandparents

please say Ron isn't their friend in this book

Too much formalities in this book. Its so weird to hear Molly Weasley call Harry, Lord Potter.

since it was mentioned
I'd love to see an omake or whatever you call them of Harry eating Scabbers by accident

This is excellent thank you so very much

I absolutely loved this story! Keep up the good work!

very nice

goddangit ginny and ron; a secret is supposed to stay secret smh

Amazing story!

To be fair to Ron:

You just found out that your rat is a death eater and HarryHermione (Mary and Gary Sue) get orders of Merlin. You’re a bit jealous sure. But then you find out they don’t even want it! Like what did they have to say that? They DO deserve it, they’re just being infuriating

that was an amazing story! I liked the changes you implemented while still staying close to the original plot. I especially liked the political aspect of things which wasn't for once Harry speaks and everyone agrees. It does take time to change things as you explained and sometimes it goes backward

I JUST realized there is 112 chapter, not 2 chapter. /facepalm.

Well... At least there's lots of more story for me to read! Yay! _

Did someone dose dumbledore's lemondrops with veritaserum? Oo

Cuz I have NEVER seen dumbledore THIS open and straightforward with even his CLOSEST friends. Much less anyone who might tell Harry!

Very Out Of Character for him.

Plus, only children with zero filter between their mouth and brain share THAT much with someone they just met.

And dumbledore is a paranoid schemer on top of that.

Quixotic, to be sure. Very well-meaning. But he plays his cards close to his chest.

Oversharing and straight-forward honesty in fiction always make the conversations feel stilted and unnatural. Nobody REAL talks like that. Or share that much.

And speaking as someone who tend to overshare cuz I can't tell the difference between what other people consider peivate and not; IF someone overshared like that, the other people would make some lame excuse. -or tell you you're weird or to fuck off- and run off as fast as they can politely (or not politely) do.

I like the story thus far, the story itself is actually quite good.

But I STRONGLY recomend you learn how to use Subtext, blantant lies, and enough manipulation and dodging topoc skills to portray dumbledore correctly.

At least you made him in-character in terms of his subconcious scheme to keep Harry downtrodden because it will help his scheme best, fighting with his moral conscience, and his morals wins out when the blinds he willingly placed on himself is ripped away.

He may be an asshole, but he has high moral standards.

It's like watching Ghandi try to lead an army against the Sith Empire. Ridiculus!

Pacefism only works when there is political options. It does not work against people who don't give a shit what pwople think about them, and have no trouble blowing up your whole planet cuz you're annoying them.

A bad trait in a general. I am NOT suprised they were loosing the war before Harry came along.

It doesn't help that he tries to make up for it by "allowing Harry to be a child" by witholding information he COULD have used to be better prepared. Not to mention that could save Harry's life, as well as that of others. (Sirius comes to mind.)

Also... Do you happen to have an exact number on Voldemort's forces during the first war? And where it is taken from.

The best calculation I have found is that he had a maximum of 70 people that CAN be identified. Tho there is an estimated guess on around 150 as the absolute maximum.

Not suprising tho. Terrorists tend to be few in numbers, it's both why they have to resort to spreading fear and chaos AND the reason why those methodes actually works. (Robert Green's Art of War have a section on how small cults and terrorist movements operates.)

Fun Fact: Voldemort don't give a rats ass about blood purity. As proven by the fact that he DID have a few muggleborn Death Eaters. They actually exist!

Of course, Grindewald had far more of them. But he didn't discriminate against muggleborns, as far as I understand it. He just wanted to rule over muggles along with his BBF dumbledore. For the muggles own sake, or, as is engraved over his Castle-now-prison "For the Greater Good."

Voldemort just want to kill all muggles. And rule the world.

He doesn't much care HOW he does it, or who his servants are. Only the purebloods who's case he claimed to believe in cares about blood.

(He's half-blood too. And I doubt he'd believe in something that made himself less worth than Lucius or the Weasley's. And don't even get me started about the Weasley's hypocrisy. "I have a cousin that's an acountant (read; squib) but we don't talk about him." -Ron)

Accidentally turning into a cat I get. Accidentally turning back because he desired so strongly to speak to someone I get.

But there is NO WAY he should be able to CONTROL it!
Not yet! Not without training!

THAT, more than anything else, makes me wanna facepalm when reading this story.

It makes NO sense.

Accidental magic is powerful. And can do seemingly impossible things. But control requires training, knowledge and skills.

Neither of which Harry has.

I see dumbledore is still a lying asshole tho. Or a deluded one. Either way, kudos for that. Very In-Character for him.

Voldemort would never follow Harry if Harry kept the hell out of brittan.

Harry ONLY sought out Harry TWICE, and that was BOTH because he wanted something Harry could give him AND because Harry was setting himself against him.

His first year Voldemort was actually pretty neutral. He even offered Harry to join him.

(Most likely planned to bind Harry with an unbreakable vow so Harry could not harm him, which WOULD render the prophecy worthless. Assuming it ever was worth shit, which I doubt. It's been very self-fufilling.

But Voldemort has a strange sort of honor in keeping his word. You don't see it much, and most his promises are threats, but I've never seen him lie to Harry.)

Oh, and he also advised him with the whole "good and Evil doesn't exist, there is only power" speach -clearly trying to convert or corrupt him.

So I am convinced that if Harry ran off, Voldemort would focus on his REAL goal; To take over magical brittain.

The only one who would hunt Harry down is dumbledore.

And somehow the old goat believes he is less Evil by making a child comit suicide after turning him into a child soldier, than it would be if he had just killed him himself. _

I REALLY don't like dumbledore. He's an ass.
A well-meaning ass who wants to save as many pepple as possible and that makes the hard decision to sacrifice one child for the sake of ten tousand lives... but he's STILL an ass.

Especially because he uses manipulation and trickery and make the kids life FAR worse than it has to be JUST so the kid will kill himself, and spare dumbledore's own hands from being stained with blood.

I am pretty sure he and Voldie both have a small teampark in Hell waiting for them when they die.

At least Voldemort is honest about being an asshole. I respect that far more than dumbledore's hypocrisy.

I also hope Harry do NOT end with the weasleys.

Ron is a turn-coat and golddigger. And gis baby sister is a delusional celebrety chaser that dreams of a hero saving her and making her a queen.

If she TRULY knew Harry, I doubt she'd want him. Because Harry has never wanted to be a hero. He always wanted to live a quiet, normal life, far from the spotlight. And comming from poverty only to find money he has not earned but ingerited... he'd be stingy and careful with them, because he KNOWS their value.

Ginny's family may not be rich, but Ginny never lacked for anything, even if her new dresses were second-hand. She doesn't value money like he does.

Anyway... going off on a tanget. I should just go to bed. Lol

I'm suprised the Grangers HAVE a shotgun. And I will assume you mean a hunting rifle. Pretty sure shotguns as such as illegal in the uk... well, maybe if he hubts ducks?

I just know that ALL guns are illegal unless you have a hunting licence OR you're a cop. (Although I don't think either is allowed to carry said weapon. Maaaybe cops. But they might not be allowed to remove them from their cars without due cause... although that law may have been changed the last few years, with all the terrorism scares.)

That said, wizards are idiots if they think magic can fight guns.

Voldemort would be dead before he could utter "Ava-"
Guns are THAT fast. And automatic guns even faster.
Never mind bombs and atomic bombs.

(Maybe Voldemort DO know tho. And it's the reason he's so scared of death. He DID grow up in London during the war. Constant fear looming over his head, constant shortage of food, especially for orphans.

Maybe why he never actually attacks muggles in the open. He knows how bad it could be if they discovered hostile wizards for real.)

I am keeping my fingers crossed for growing up with the Grangers makes Harry a "We should tell the teacher!" Instead of chasing down trolls on his own.

(Not that he'd need to. Hermione won't be crying in a bathroom when she has a brother/friend who loves her. It will wittle away her insecurity -albeith may make her dependant upon Harry to an unhealthy degree. Likely will go both ways.)

I REALLY like this story tho. So I hope you will write more. _

Great story! Very good read, looking forward to the next part!
Thanks!
