*claps* *cheers* *applauds*
A fabulous story! Congratulations! I'm curious though. Even though Voldemort is dead, couldn't he still come back through his many other Horcruxes? What about Harry's scar? Is it still a Horcrux?

Huh, couldn't the staff be discreet and send a message through a note or something? Ask one of the other students (or prefects) to give it to Harry?

Why didn't they just think of shrinking their trunks? Or Apparate away when they animals gave chase?

My gosh!! I was extremely frustrated!! I feared I'd clicked on a Harry/Ginny story and had to go back and check if this was still a Harry/Hermione story...then I remembered that Portkey doesn't have Harry/Ginny ships...lol.

such a wonderful, I read the whole thing in one sitting. I hope you write mroe stoires soon. I really enjoy your writing style

AWWW this has to be the 4th or 5th time I've read your story!! its simply amazing!!!

Not to mention the fact that you kept the trio together. Their friendship in book 1-5 was amazing to say the least... i always tend to laugh out loud everytime i read this part:

"It’s almost like a Hogwarts tradition! Voldemort attaches himself to Quirrell’s head, you beat him, we go to Honeydukes. Voldemort unleashes a basilisk, you beat him, we go to Honeydukes. Voldemort challenges you to a duel on his father’s gravestone, you beat him, we go to Honeydukes. Voldemort tries to snatch that thing from the Department of Mysteries, you beat him, we go to Honeydukes. Do you see a pattern here, Harry?”

“You mean besides your fixation on Honeydukes?” Cracks me up everytime i swear so very ron like!!!!!!


and this part always always always ALWAYS makes me cry:

“You’ve always been with me. Since the beginning you were always the one. Through three headed dogs and basilisks, dragons and prophecies, and now, here at the end, you’re with me. I need you to know that I finally know what that means.”

SO TRUE!!!! just can not belive JKR did not see it!!!!!! From the begginning it has always been HERMIONE!!! I love your story



“Sometimes things turn out just perfect.”

Yes just like your story PERFECT!

I know this was written a long time ago, but I wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed it. Building with Lincoln Logs between the lines of canon, indeed. I doubt that I have to tell you that I prefer your version to DH by far. It was creative and lovely.

What a brilliant journey you've taken me through. Thank you. This alternate plot (since I've read the 7th book already) is so much preferable to certain parts, ahem, of JKR's canon. Good on ya, mate!

that was a fantastic chapter, how harry was going to go insane thinking about seeing his parents corps, speaking from experince, that is one of the most tramtic experince a person can go through, and you never forget it

THIS would have to be the Third time that i read ur story i absolutely love it!!! u are so goin to my fave!!

OMG, OMG, OMG, I loved every word of your story, the way it should have been, I couldn't stop reading, you did an amazing job. You just gotta love the story and Harry and Hermione together

Canon-ness?

More like canon-less if you ask me.


This is just dumb

Gawd why are you insisting on dragging this fight out. And why have you made Harry a fucking moron?

Yea! I loved it! Wonderful job! Thank you so much for posting this story! It took Harry awhile, but once he got his head screwed on straight, everything turned out fine. Thank you so much for this, and keep up the great work!

Yes! We're well on our way now! Whoo-hooo! I knew Harry had it in him!
