Maybe Merlin was sorted into Slytherin posthumously, simply based on the fact that he was a Parselmouth? ;D

I read your note at the end. Don’t worry about what other people say about your characters. It’s your story so you can change the characters however you want. There is no rule that says you have to write a character a certain way. The ones telling you different should know better.

I think I feel much better about the ball now. Unfortunately, Harry is probably correct in his estimation of the situation.

Phew! Poor Neville. Quite a conundrum with the ball. Nice to see Sirius being a leader in his family and it making a difference.

She’s really kind of scary, to be so completely invisible.

I worry about who is following him with evil intent. I wonder if the Headmaster put a tracking charm or some such on him. Perhaps he has forgotten the Elder Wand lost its power when he arrived. I am guessing Dumbledore noticed by now. I think Harry is correct to be on edge.

I guess they were close enough to death to qualify? Mostly glossed over the section. Just enough to get the gist of what happened.

Amazing how intrusive and manipulative Dumbledore is being, but perhaps it really is not all that surprising.

Their blind devotion to Dumbledore is a bit concerning and unnerving. I wonder if anything else is at work here. Especially considering what Harry discovered about people’s memories of the day Voldemort was first destroyed.

It’s hard reading a Harry bent on revenge. Him feeling that way is understandable, but it tends to eat away at a person and destroy their soul. At least now it seems to be relegated to a back burner with protection and amelioration in the forefront. Hydrus is not necessarily a nice person.

Like Ron would actually have money in Gringotts?! Now Hermione on the other hand I can see. It's just googled that the Goblins are so greedy and lacking in honesty in this story. Griphook betrayed them after making a deal. Yet he was not held accountable for breaking it. So had Harry rolled a few barrels of VX nerve gas down to their tunnels, I wouldn't shed any tears for the greedy dishonest creatures.

great story thank you very much

hmm interesting it seems like rita already looking at hydrus

sirius the hot head

hmmm
