I like it. It's light, it's funny, and it's well written. With the mysterious coma you have the air of mystery that colors most fairy tales. the only thing you could develop, if you wanted to make even more fairy tale like, is introduce a sense of other worldliness. Normally the magic and all that would take care of it, but with the standard plot the way it is, harry potter magic almost becomes common. Unfortunately I have no idea how to introduce something like that without the possible hokey-ness that could come out.

Oops! Looks like the last bit got cut off.

This last sentence is missing:
"Never mind that," Dumbledore said. "Harry, now that you are done eating, it is time to get you back to the Durseleys."

Im not the most experience reviewer. But it feels great to be reading a story like this one. They are hard to come by. Witty and funny, while not being ridiculously not possible. I must make a note about evil cliff hangers and not taking too long for the next chapter, but I know you keep your own schedule and no one will rush it. (except maybe any significant other who likes your work).

I cannot wait to read the next chapter. It will surely brighten my day.

At last! I've been looking forward to the start of this for quite some time. I've enjoyed this chapter, and eagerly await the next installment.

Woo-hoo! Just as good as I hoped! Brilliant, and what a wonderful cliffie. You are a wonderful fairy tale teller, and this story promises to be nothing short of wonderful. The beginning is at least well beyond any mark. *does happy jig*

Cheers!

And does this mean you've found a new place to live, and that life is returning to normal? Hope so. Blessings... :-)

Yes, we're all moved in and happy and relaxed.

And if all goes well, next chapter will be out on Thursday

Excellent! This is a fun story that hits all the right notes. Thank you.

Minor error: At the graveyard there would have been five horcruxes (ring, locket, cup, diadem, Harry), not four.

Jeconais replied:

Thanks - I did get that wrong.

You can't end it there! Great start.

Finally! I remember seeing a teaser for this a while back and couldn't wait till it arrived.

It's great!

Ha! This is VERY good. Very funny too. No wonder you're one of my favourite authors. Can't wait for the next chappie.

Great. Now, if you can just get rid of the peanut gallery and give us more Harr/Gabby with no input from anyone over the age of 25?

Jeconais replied:

Ahh - but Gabbi doesn't know everything that is going on... What she thinks happened and what actually happened...

If my neighbours file a noise complaint, I'm giving them this website's address. I love this, cackling, giggling and adoring, way too late but I don't care! Great characters, a good summary that I didn't find at all exposisiony and a nice tight cliffy that has me drooling for more.

My sentance is no life for you until you write more, lots more. If you do, I might let you sleep, but I want more giggles, more laughter and more story.

Have I mentioned I liked the pace, flow, characterization and the dialogue ever so much?
Well, concider yourself complimented allll over the place.

Excellent story. I like the light hearted but believable story.

Thank you for sharing it with us.

It took a long time, but it was well worth it. the only thing i can see wrong about it is that it seemes a little childish there for a few moments. But over all its very entertaining and fun. Thank you for posting it. Looking forward to the next post.

This is going to be a fun ride, eh? I see you put in a great deal of humor in it as well.

I'm currently ecstatic. A new story from one of the best fanfic authors. I have been rereading a lot of your old stories and was about to reread Hope when I saw the update for this story. I can't wait for more. I remember reading on your groups site that the majority of the story has already been betaed. Hopefully, that will mean another update very soon. If not, I can wait. Patientce is a virtue.

Oh good, a "happy" story from Tim. :-) You really seem to like Harry/Gabbi stories, don't you? That's OK, we'll all enjoy it. ;-) Nice start with a good fairy tale feel. -- Kevin

Great story. Been waiting a while for it and it did not dissapoint. I had a story idea today that i know i am not author enough to write. If you are interested you can write it or maybe if you don't, someone who will do it justice.

Orion posted a comment on Thursday 22nd May 2008 8:17pm for Chapter 1

Very nice.

I know we've been waiting for this one (and you have had very valid reasons for not posting earlier than this, and further I acknowledge your right as an author to post or not post as you please, reguardless of reason . . .) so we are all happy to read it.

I do also think that Harry is also very in character given the situation you've put him in.

As always, good work.
