White Knight, Grey Queen

Sappy but still good.

I don't know if someone already asked that or even if you answer that in some list or group, but what Pansy wrote on Mrs.Black's canvas? I read and re-read this story and I always try to imagine what it could be. But you probably have a much better comeback than I ever could think of.

I have read this fic close to a dozen times, and this chapter never fails to leave me weeping.

It might be the website mucking stuff up, but Sirius's will seems slightly over paragraphed, if it could be. Also, I don't think you need to put speech marks in every paragraph, just once (or twice, I suppose) for the whole speech. I love this story :)

at first when i started to read this i was very sceptical , but i have really enjoyed reading this so far ...well done

The saints and sinners line was especially good. I almost felt sorry for Snape having to crawl through to the Chamber but the idea made me laugh too hard. I love the way Pansy kissed Harry AND Remus. They can’t seriously think they’ll break Harry and Pansy up, at least not when they seem them together. Happy death day song was evil but so funny as were the extensive Monty Python jokes. The use of turpentine was genius. Daphne made me laugh. “Wave a revolution in front of a Slytherin and the first thing they do is ask to sign up” made me laugh harder. That last scene was so sweet too.

wow...an emotional chapter..really amazing

Tim, this is about the 4th time I've read this chapter, and I still sob at the end.

damn-you-bless-you!

Looking forward to more of "Hope" as I re-read WKGQ. It's the awesomeness. :D

Meg

Ginny's epiphany was particularly well done!

Ch.4 - - This was great with Remus coming to Harry's side, and McGonagall doing what Harry would want even though she isn't doing it for that reason.

I loved McG's determination that her potions students would do better than Snape's.

Harry did a great job of winning over Daphne. Well written

Terrific dialogue!

I was going to wait untill I got to the end of the story to reveiw it, but I just have to say that I love you for mentioning Monty Python. ( I am a huge fan, and never thought about it mixing with HP in any way). I practically fell to the ground laughing when Serious said "Besides, I never wanted to be a convict, I wanted to be a lumberjack." Ha ha ha... I love the rest of this story to, but I just had to thank you for that. Now, I must get back to the story...

God, how I laughed at the will-reading! I just love Life of Brian!!! Especially the end song.

If Sirius was going to go Python-esque during his will, he should have told Harry to watch out for blancmanges (In the science fiction sketch, which came out eleven years before Harry was born, a man named Harold Potter was the first person to be turned into a Scotsman by man-eating blancmanges from Andromeda as the first step of their plan to win Wimbledon. Seeing as Harry is the son of a prankster, you have to wonder if the name similarity is intentional.)

Each chapter gets better and better. You tell a mean story. I love the tenderness and love, the friends being true friends. This is so much more fun to read than most of the doom and gloom stories. I am hooked, you write and I'm gladly read.

gunny

Oooh, I loved that. They're so cute together. I can't wait to read on. I'm so happy for them, it's so adorable. I loved it!!!

Chapter 4 and I'm a blubbering wreck again!

I love how you are able to blend the serious, the sad, happy sad & hilarious so it reads so well!!!

wo tim i love it this is a fantastic chapter i cant wait for more. i am also waiting for the last chapter to tmw but due to rl i can understand the wait and hope that it eventualy gives you some slack! may the farce be with you!

Good chapter. Keep up the good work with this story and I hope that the work on it is progressing steadily and up to your satisfaction.

Unless you're a fanatic (and to be honest, I doubt that few of the DEs fall into that category, especially in the inner circle) the movement is based pretty much *entirely* on self-interest and settling old scores. In the case of the Parkinsons, their backing of Harry specifically, as opposed to the Light in general, makes all sorts of sense given their rather odd position. That the Parkinsons can also settle their personal hash with the Malfoys is a bonus. Pansy is also well aware that Harry has his own *Malfoy issues*, and very much subscribes to "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." Also, has there been some sort of roadblock preventing Grunnings' products from being used in the wizarding world (other than magical physics)? Given the magical knowledge of the Parkinsons (Slytherin and Ravenclaw), I would find it surprising that this hasn't been investigated (simply in terms of sales to the goblins alone). Cross-world businesses simply make way too much money (witness Pansy's own idea of turning Malfoy Manor into a hotel for Muggles). Think of how much the Parkinsons (and Harry, if he is clued in enough to invest in it) could make rehabbing magical structures for use as hotels (wizarding, Muggle, or both)? They won't even have to buy the buildings; they could simply *operate* them, like many Muggle hotel chains do. Not so stupid.

I'm really enjoying your story. I don't endorse some of the overtly sexual behavior of such young people. But, that's a philosophy of life, not a basis for literary review. And that would have to be my only objection. Otherwise, I love what you have done for Harry. Most fanfic authors, me included, I now hate to say, love to run Harry through the mire, seeing just how awful they can make his life and still bring him through it with his good will in tact. Or, unlike me, they send him to the "dark side" completely. I like your effective use of the middle ground. It's a well written, well rounded, well thought out story. Good job. Keep up the good work. I'll be watching for updates to this and others of your stories (especially TMW). Best Wishes, Leiselmae
