Okay - did you not say exactly what Rowena did to her husband or have I completely forgotten? Because I don't seem to know it. I also can't wait to see how the Molly/Hermione thing pans out. I think both stories are so long that I"ve forgotten too many things. I don't remember Natalie. I don't remember Ginny/Harry. I may have to re-read. No hardship, there. Well done.

That bit at the end was just lovely. Great chapter. Rowena is very disturbing, I must say.

Wow, what a great chapter. It had so much STUFF in it that I loved. Believe it or not, it wasn't the sex. I loved the power and the loyalty of Ron, Ginny, Neville, Luna, Cho and Dennis - that was beautifully done. The addition of Rowena almost seems random, but it is interesting and I'm willing to give you all the time you need to build that part of the story. I'm very curious as to what you'll do with the extreme power that Harry and Hermione have - you've touched on something very obvious with these sorts of stories. People with extreme power (be it magical or not) can be very dangerous. Do you trust in their inherent goodness and leave them alone, or do you try to extinguish them? Absolute power corrupts absolutely - as they say. For that reason, I don't blame the Minister for being afraid of them - but he's still a putz. He and the Prophet people earned the wrath - but again, it's a very fine line that these kids walk. You can't just go around burning buildings to the ground because you don't like what they say about you - that's not how civilized societies operate. For example - if one were to set fire to the New York Times because they ran a nasty article about a presidential candidate, that person would go to jail, no doubt about it. No matter what the Time said. So, I'll be curious to see if there is any fall out for the kids. Interesting story!!

So glad finally u update portkey.... I have been visiting adultfanfiction and leave review so i guess am not going to review here but only giving some encouragement.... Thank u for posting back here at portkey... Portkey is a fine website ... if some of the readers are irritable well lets just ignore them shall we....
Bravooo keep updating !!!! i'll be waiting the alerts at my mail.....

Now this was the story that I expected to read when I saw your name on the new and updated stories. I hate to admit this, but I actually felt sorry for Rita as she walked through Hogsmead Village. That is the mark of a great writer, making a reader have a sympathetic response toward an unliked character! Molly using the Avada curse on the poor garden gnomes. Once the other gnomes get wind of that, the Weasley garden should suddenly become gnome-less! I LOVE this story .... I can't wait to read more. Why is it that when I read one of your stories, I can hear the words echoing in my head?

When I found Portkey a few years ago, I started reading as many well written stories as I could find. It didnt always turn out for the best but for the most part I had the privledge of viewing some very accomplished writers. It was the first time I had been exited about a website in...well forever.

When the time came that I would find a real gem, I would feel duty-bound to let the author know what a wonderful job they had done. This method seemed to be working for the most part, until one day it became apparent that I had written the same review for several stories in a row. This I had to change, because of my need to feel original and sincere in my replies. Thus I started tapering my responses only to those who showed superior skills in the art of writing. Eventually there came a time when no more reviews were being sent.

I say this because it bothers me reading one of your posts and not replying at the very least with a cordial thanks or well done. That is not my style and I would think anyone with an ounce of self respect should feel similar.

I'll rant no more about reviewing history and instead give you praise for the wonderfully creative idea of the vault under the hollow. I'm blown away personally and your facts were spot on. Although the gravitational pull (mass) of the object would factor in there too (however minutely) and cannot be forgotten.

You have done A marvelous job Edmond and I can see you doing well with future writings. Keep your nose to the grindstone and finish what you've started and I'm positive the reviews will come.

There is no disguising the fact that I was absolutely delighted to see your postings of the 21st and was even more delighted at your report that many others of your readers were of a similar mind to myself. You have finally received the reviews you deserve

Thank goodness you decided to post again and what a comeback it is. Another wonderfully written and entertaining chapter - almost a story in itself - and you have left us with even more unresolved issues. (As is the mark of a good storyteller)

Will that Skeeter never learn? I'm sure her evil little scheme to use Molly's mental breakdown will finally ensure she gets her just deserts. I hope what you have in mind for us as 'Luna's scheme' will nip Rita's attempt in the bud before things get too serious and Hermione is faced with a very difficult choice.

I hope Hermione's use of her grandmother's sacrifice also bears fruit, but these are things to look forward too in forthcoming instalments, which I shall be looking out for. I also liked the little bit at the end where our secret lovers are suddenly outed:-)

Alea jacta est!

I'm glad to see you reconsidered about discontinuing the story here my friend. I would have gotten the alert sooner, but i wasn't logged in. I did notice a very slight error that I think i might have missed when betaing. Here's what i read: 'She could feel his tongue intertwining itself with his;' heh, looks like i missed one.

That was great.Thank you for this story and the time and effort that you have put in to it.Please ignore any and all flames.Enjoy your self when you write and have fun in your life when you can.

I just found your story today (2/22/08) and have enjoyed it very much. I can sympathize with the frustration of working so hard with so little in the way of positive feedback and I hope that you chose to continue to write.

This is an excellent continuation of Vox Corporis, on of my favorite H/Hr stories of all time. I personally feel that you have done a good job of reconciling the realities of a story that ends during Fifth year and a continuation during Seventh year. The prevalence of sexual activity is understandable when you consider their ages, power levels and the extremely stressful and traumatic events that they survived together.

I don't blame you for ignoring so much of what JKR did during Book 6 and 7, it was never foreshadowed or even hinted at until it was dropped in at the last minute. As for Molly, I can see her taking the 'loss' of Harry to that 'scarlet woman' Hermione Granger very badly, and her claim to be a very good duelist is actually borne out (at least a little) in Book 7 when she defeated Bella. If JKR hadn't written it I wouldn't have believed it, Bella has been written as a psychotic but powerful and skilled witch that Aurors and Hit Wizards can't even hit, much less defeat. In fact, I don't think I do believe it.

A very nice chapter. The hits just seem to keep on coming don't they. There are a lot of different threads that are interweaving right now. I'll be watching to see how things come together.

oh, i am so glad you are not giving up just yet! would be a pity to stop now when you've got so many plot points snowballing.

Man you are back!!!!. Excellent and long chapter as always , you really portrait a scary pair Molly and Rita *shudders* I can imagine what that two could do . I can wait for the next chapter. Keep the good work
Ana

Thank you so much for the chapter, I really love your story! I really want to see what will happen with Molly, I don't see how she could make Hermione challenge her to a duel, it will be interesting to see how that all plays out. I can't wait to read more so please update again soon!

As always the writing was excellent. I love all the plotlines interwoven into each chapter. please update sooner but not at the cost of quality of the story.
