LOL! I don't feel especially sorry for the Dursleys or Snspe; but Harry deserves better for neighbors. Maybe he, Sirius, and Ana will move to someplace nice. How about Sirius's island? Oh, rats! Too much sun and heat. Never mind. Maybe someplace in Norway or Sweden would be nice ... or even a deep, ancient forest.

Good story. I really enjoyed it.

P.S. Do watch that trail/trial thing!

Something about Donia makes me think of Rita Skeeter. Hopefully, it's just the Quill. She just doesn't really sound all that pro-Sirius, to me. I'm worried.

I'm not sure that confession was wise at this particular time. Given that only the two of them knew - and Sirius and Ana are not married or joined, or whatever they would be, as Vamps - was it even necessary to confess at all? No vows were broken, and Ana had not yet made her choice. Will this confession hurt Sirius more than it helped Ana?

What's gotten into Petunia? She's acting almost like a NORMAL person would act. Interesting. Has some spell worn off?

Maybe Ana should consider that threesome. If Harry can have harems in his stories, why can't Ana? Hey, with a name like Anathema, she deserves a break. I wonder who gave her that name. Did I miss that tidbit?

"It mollified [Severus] to know that the moment he showed interest, [Ana] would probably dump them for him, anyway." Is someone a wee bit delusional?

Oops! Sorry to disappoint you, Sevvie. Hmm. I wonder if he will squeal about Ana as he did about Remus at the end of Harry's third year. He should head to Durmstrang and try to snag Narcissa.

"... they spoke of the coming trail and poured over legal books." This should read "the coming TRIAL ..."

I'm glad Ana finally woke up. I sure hope Harry's confidence about Sirius's trial is not misplaced. I guess they're going to try and nail him for Lucius, too? What a bunch of idiots!

I feel bad for Remus and Ana, even though I truly believe Sirius deserves to be happy. (Where the heck is Tonks? Isn't she supposed to be loving Remus?) Will Remus, Sirius, and Ana become a threesome? Just wondering. This seems a painful and complicated trio, and someone is bound to be hurt, no matter how it plays out.

"Beside him, in a single comfortable chair, sat Ron, Hermione curled up on his lap, a large hospital-blanket draped over both of them." So the Ron and Hermione that were hit were actually Golems, while the real R&H were in Hogsmeade? I think I understand. Probably.

LOL about Ron mending Harry's wand with Spellotape. It sounds like the way he mends wands.

I wonder if that pendant does something ... has protections, or a portkey.

Lucius is such a degenerate. I hope Draco disobeys him, and I hope he and Draco hurt each other. That would be poetic justice. Maybe Dobby could put Lucius and Draco out of the fight; perhaps he could lock them into the dungeons or something.

This Dorin/Tam Lin thing is disconcerting. Surely the Samhain date will set him free ... or something. I'm a pessimist, I suppose, where Harry and Halloween are concerned; but I don't think that Veil is his ultimate end ... especially with Lucius having a mirror. I don't suppose we are lucky enough for Lucius to go through it the other way.

That was pretty sneaky of Ana. I only hope it works. At least Snape seems to be helping ... as much as he can, in the circumstances.

As for Draco ... that little twerp could use a sojourn through the Veil. Unfortunately, it sounds as though he knows how to get Dorin back, thanks to his eavesdropping. That brings up another point: Why are Harry and Hermione suddenly so stupid, talking out where they can be overheard?

"... his Godfather on the lamb ..." The correct word is LAM, with no B. To be "on the lam" means on the run, hiding out, etc. Lam ... No B.

That was a tense little standoff. The real question ... what happens to a Vampyre behind the Veil? They are already dead, right? Or is it undead? And what, exactly, is the difference?

"Tonk's mother Andromeda was Sirius' cousin, and Tonks is part Wizard and Part Muggle ..."
Should read "Tonks's mother Andromeda was Sirius's cousin ..." The possessive of a singular noun ending in S (Tonks, Sirius) is formed by adding apostrophe S ('s).

As for accuracy, Tonks is a Half-blood. Her mother is a Pureblood witch, and her father, Ted Tonks, is a Muggleborn wizard, not a Muggle.

I think Ana has her hands full with Sirius, at least until he settles down. He seems kind of rash and wild, and Remus is obviously accustomed to being submissive to Sirius. It would appear that this could be problematic.

I knew it! I figured it was a blood pop Dud had tasted, when he mentioned the copper tang. I was surprised, though, about the CCs. (Cockroach Clusters, right?) I didn't think they were actual cockroaches, but that's how it sounded when Dud described how his stomach felt. HeHe!

I'm glad there is someone who actually is on Harry's side. It's about time. I hope she can help Sirius, too. Unfortunately, it looks as though she is about to drain him ... or turn him.

Is Ana a Vampyre? I wondered if she was magical when she seemed to take to Harry almost instantly. Well, this should be interesting. A "maybe" Vampyre, an "undead" Sirius, and Harry. Sounds fun!

I hate the idea of Remus, Sirius and the others never thought to be paranoid of any rat in their vicinity or even prank a trap for possible animagus spy. tsk

Great story! it really is weird that vampires are ignored in canon. Thanks for filling the void!

Too Funny! I loved the ending! Simply Brilliant.

Really enjoyed the humanity in your story. Very intricate. Well done.
