I Professor Cat, who aided and abetted my boss Old Senile Lemon Drop Twinkle Eyes in kidnapping you hours after your parents death and dropped you off on the doorstep of your spiteful magic hating relatives who treated you like dirt, sent you out to a forest at night as punishment which could have resulted in greater injury, and who regularly disregards what you have to say about trivial concerns regarding the safety of the school and other such nonsense, am proud to announce that I Professor Cat, have the great moral authority to judge that you, James clone orphan anomaly, have an ego problem and it must be removed. Never mind that you thought I might cane you for nearly breaking your neck during that flying lesson, or that you know not to accept strange posessed teachers offers of world domination and ressurecting the dead, or that you witnessed the death of a classmate and rebirth of a monster no no no. All that went away when you developed strange poorly explained golem powers and you must be curbed lest you become some red eyed snake faced maniac for the greater good. Don't worry, I Professor Cat, will explain exactly none of this to you for fear of being told in very colorful ways to pound sand as I so rightfully deserve. instead i will reveal everything to the bookworm because she's obviously smarter than you and it's practically the only way she's plot relevant, but don't go manipulating that part of her that likes to show off, particularly when it comes to winning the house cup which I've been obviously using to get drunk regularly. No no you just continue learning the great moral lessons that come from mopping while I casually arrange for a bit of humiliation here and there. After all, I Professor Cat am smarter and more experieced than you james clone orphan anomaly, I know what I'm taking about and you should always respect your professors; even that contemptuous greasy haired looking fellow that hates your dad. And just stop thinking otherwise you might run the risk of contemplating why mopping humility connects to golem powers and how this is much more productive use of time than going to charms, or engaging in that fun old maurauder past time of pranking the ever loving hell out of me again as I so richly deserve.

great chapter

Those aren't the actual Latin words, just so you know . . .

Go Cho! lol...and yes, the bottom of the lake is a good place for the gem.

*Pulls out a freeze-dried weazel and raises it threateningly*...I don't get it...

Arg! Not another cliffie! At this point, I'm so eager to find out what's going to happen, I'm not going to bother to rejoice or mourn over Snape's death...I'm also not sure which is more appropriate at this time anyways...onwards!

I...hate...cliffhangers! Gr...very well-written though! :)

Love it! These excerpts are really cool. Like the common theme of separating the gems...very good! :)

What is it with guys and letting girls win like that when they like them?...*sigh*...one of the many mysteries of the male race I'll never understand...lol :)

Wow...I really liked this chapter. The excerpt was really well-written and interesting. Fave line: "Pride, as noble as it can be, is not a positive emotion." Very well done! :)

Go Hermione! lol Heehee, Malfoy always gets what's coming to him! :)
