Forgot how much i really like your stories. You bring some adult views into a world that for the most part is a childrens novel, and you do it well, without compromising the integrity of your story. You also make them fun and great to read. So from me, well done, waiting now for your next installment.

Even after 10 years of reading fanfictions, and 45 or so since my 1st 'magic' story, you still do the very best explanation of MAGIC that I have ever seen.
Thank you so much for your wonderful stories, I have been enjoying this one very much, and when I just want a really good read, it is always to you or one of the great authors you have gathered here on fanficauthors.

Warmest regards
Ken W

Great story. I am curious about who you will pair Harry with. I want to say Gabby but I'm not so sure now. I love Harry and Hermonie but you have paired her with Vic. He is interesting but not what I would call her match. I look forward to seeing more soon.

Love the Weasley Twin run down at the beginning--succinct, humorous, and so appropriate to the story. And it is a bit poignant when they discuss not being sure who is who because not even their own mother was consistent.

That has to be one of the best explanations of the deeper meaning of "we'll always have paris" I've ever read.

Love him finding the old, mournful vineyard and the sad woman.

Absolutely wonderful chapter. At first when I started this story I felt like it was going to be mostly for the laughs. But there is a strong emotional heart growing in the story, and some wonderful scenes of friendship and family. I'm really enjoying it.

Damn i love this story! A most original and amazing take on a Harry Potter story i have read in a long time. Keep up the good work, and thank you for sharing this amazing idea.

Your work reminds me of the Sistine Chapel. It's a masterpiece, that many use to judge others, and their own work against. Every time you see it, you discover another little nuance and insight. Inspiring, and depressing at the same time. And the close always comes too soon, leaving you wishing for just a little more time, wondering how soon you can see more.

Some interesting foreshadowing going on with Gabby, the twins, and Harry.

Great development of Harry, and awesome magic lesson.
The bit about the car was great. I enjoy the ability to do wandless magic, and the explanation of why not too, when you have a perfectly good force multiiplier and focus at hand.

Great work as always and thanks for the inspiration, and ego beatdown. :)

I'm so in love with this! Was too thrilled at seeing another chapter posted!

Very good chapter

I found the author notes interesting, I don't care for Weasley bashing expect for Percy. I don't mind Percy getting bashed, but any other Weasley I won't find it funny they get bashed.

I don't see Ginny as a fan girl, there is not much known about Ginny. Since she is a minor character that don't play a big role

And you didnt even make it to the secound test. Looking forward to seeing how harry pulls it off. Great charther building in this part.

I do love getting updates to this story. Harry may have been preachy, but I have a feeling his forced levels of maturity have made him much more in tune with his magic and how it affects the world. Great job! TLC

If slightly shorter chapters is the price for two of them in the same month(heck, same half of the same month really) I'll gladly pay it.

For all that didn't happen, I think a lot more than is obvious happened in this chapter, and I saw a whole bunch of setup. I recently read something to the effect of "any episode that doesn't advance the plot is just filler". I'd say this advanced the plot.

I also liked seeing another side of pseudo-mentor Harry. Good stuff all around.

I think your author's notes about capture this chapter. A great midddle with kind of preachy ends but all-in-all a worthy read. I'm now totally curious as to who you'll have with Harry next, whether she'll come from your fertile imagination or be someone we've met before via Rowling's.
Thanks for your obvious efforts on this chapter.

Incredible chapter.

I just love this fic. You have the perfect blend of humor and seriousness while adding flair. I just wonder who you will hook Harry up with. Will it be a OC or maybe Sinistra? I don't know and I'm really looking forward to finding out!

sweet thanks for the quick chapter update :)

Another fine chapter. Gabrielle is the perfect angel she deserves to be and you make a fine argument for Harry's life philosophy to be the power-he-knows-not.

And Kate is super hot.

A good chapter, liked the vineyard scene, and of course Gabby. :)

Hello! Just wanted to let you know that I was very happy to see that you were starting back on this story. The first chapters were very good and I was sad to see that there was nothing new... till tonigh!
I am really curious to see how all this will impact the second task... and I do hope to see them all in Beauxbâtons the next year!
Thanks for a good time,
Nathalie

You're extremely good at making characters adorable. It makes me really love the Gabrielle scenes. She's just too cute!
