Another brilliant chapter. This story is just getting better and better. I am really enjoying it and it makes my day when a new chapter is uploaded. Keep up the good work. |
Author Feedback: Thank you very much! I'm glad I've raised the bar a bit. Keep an eye out for more!  |

This is without a doubt one of the finest examples of fanfiction I have read in my life. Your story is both original and expertly thought out, you characters both new and original splendidly formed and the flow of your storyline exceptional. BRAVO !! You are more than a writer of fanfiction you are an author. |
Author Feedback: That is a very high compliment! I'm so glad you took the time to write it. Though I will by no means pretend to have more experience in writing than I have actually had, it's been a long road, and it's very gratifying to hear that I'm doing a good job. Thank you! I will do my best to deserve the praise. |

His worries aren't unfounded, as we know. And I can see Hermione getting weary of the Moody-like vigilance, but she knows that Harry's instincts are usually good, ergo, the Death Eaters are going to show up sometime, somewhere. Nothing wrong with a little protectiveness! (Stress on "a little"; Harry does tend to go overboard with that). Looking forward to more! |
Author Feedback: Quite true. They balance each other quite well, all things considered. Thank you for reviewing! |

A puppy! Wow, it's cute...and really random. I hate to think what's going to go down in the next chapter though. You've got me worried!~ |
Author Feedback: Yes, random. But life is random, isn't it?  As for the next chapter... trust me. That's all I can say. |

As always, I enjoyed this. I have to say that you capture the emotions of the children brilliantly, and perhaps my favorite part was them recognizing something was up with Harry and Hermione and not knowing what it was, but finding out. Kudos on Harry and Hermione's characterizations in this one - his stubborn nature and her unrelenting to his paranoia and barbs. I hope you continue soon. Still a favorite. |
Author Feedback: So glad this was an enjoyable read so far, granger_danger! I almost modeled the children's curiousity with Harry and Hermione's relationship after my own original curiousity. Children are much more perceptive than they appear. Characterizations are a particularly delicate affair in this piece, so I'm glad to see it's turning out well! Keep an eye out for more!  |

lovely -the whole Jack thing, the 'they're out to get me still' thing with harry and then introducing a dog into the mxi. lovely chapter - good work |
Author Feedback: Thank you very much! I'll admit; Jack is (still) one of the more difficult to write. I'm glad you enjoyed that bit! (And I just can't imagine a family being complete without a pet or two!) |

Love this chapter, just what every family needs is a dog. The teaser was a good input in the story, gave it some real Harry potter qualities. Please update soon! |
Author Feedback: Thank you for reviewing! (I love dogs. Gulliver seemed the right fit for the family!) |

Nice chapter - I\'m not sure where exactly the story\'s going though? Will it stop once they\'ve been adopted/ at the wedding?
By the way as a side note.. PLEASE dont tell me you\'ve abandoned Rhythms!!  |
Author Feedback: Thank you very much, lemondrop! Now, to answer your two questions:
1) I can't exactly tell you precisely when this is going to end without spoiling some of the plot; I WILL tell you, however, that I have a very, very clear idea of how and when it is going to end. This story has been moving a lot more gradually than I intended (hence the massive number of chapters.) So, if it seems like we're wandering aimlessly, bear in mind that I'm guiding our wanderings very particularly.
2) As for Rhythms: No, I haven't abandoned it! As you've noticed, it IS paused at the present moment. I'd like to finish this one first-- I'm guessing that will be in-- oh, a couple months, give or take-- and then take up Rhythms again. I've written a few chapters, rewritten two or three, and cleaned up a few discrepancies present in my plot. It's going to be a delicate, rather slow process, so please continue to be patient. It's a massive undertaking as well, and I'd rather not write 'Rhythms' shabbily because I'm so focused on TOH. Thanks for your patience! It means a lot to me. |

Good to see another chapter posted. I do enjoy this story, very much. Thank you for updating and, of course, I look forward to more in the future. The NEAR future *hinthinthint* |
Author Feedback: "I'm glad you like this story! (Updates will, hopefully, be fairly regular, as I'm several chapters ahead on my little writing schedule. Keep an eye out!) |
| |
|
Great waffy story. It's fairly slow paced, but the waffiness makes it worthwhile. |
Author Feedback: Thank you! It is a very slow-paced piece, much slower than I had envisioned originally, but as you said, it gives me a chance to make the piece richer. Thank you for reviewing! |

It's nice to seen an update for this story, was getting a little sad that it seemed like it may have been dropped!
Since following this story at Chapter 1 and watching it progress speaks volumes about what a very nice piece this is, hopefully it won't end any time soon and the updates keep coming! |
Author Feedback: Thank you very much, MistakenPerception! I'm glad this story has been enjoyable! I actually have two chapters written and waiting to be posted (I'm not posting both at once, mind) but I have yet to rescue my USB from the bottom of my backpack. So keep an eye out! (As for ending soon... well, I won't say anything specific, but this thing was supposed to last about ten chapters. Obviously, that didn't happen. ) |

Another excellent addition to an excellent story. I have just fallen in love with the kids. Their characters just seem to bring joy to the story. |
Author Feedback: Thank you very much, paulmoss! I'm glad the kids have managed to brighten up the story. That's one of the things they're (or, I suppose I should say, we're) here to do. |
| |
I think you did pretty well! The characters seem pretty right for "just getting back into writing mode." Yasmine is so adorable. Looking forward to more! |
Author Feedback: Yasmine is one of my favorites, actually. Not that it shows... right? Thank you for the review! |

I really wanted to get to the latest chapter before I reviewed, but I couldn't wait! That was so adorable that I was almost crying a little bit, but I've always been an emotional person. I absolutely loved the Pride and Prejudice line when Hermione said yes to Harry. I really like this story because of the kids, it makes for a different and interesting take on the classic Harry and Hermione story. Can't wait for more! |
Author Feedback: Well, I very much hope you enjoy the rest of the story, Tootsie!
Yes, you're the second person who pointed out my Pride and Prejudice slip (which actually was a slip; I didn't realize where my mind had gotten the line until later) but I'm glad it added to the story rather than detracting from it!
I do try to be original (and occasionally fail, anyway) and this idea just sort of came into my head one day as a relatively new take on things. Glad you're enjoying it so far and thank you for reviewing! |

cool. the scene with Yaz and the couple was dramatic, but sweet. can't wait to see what happens on halloween. good to have you back. |
Author Feedback: Well, I'm sure it was very dramatic for Yasmine, not only as a child but as a very melodramatic child at that.
Halloween is on its way! |
