Brilliant story.

"Chuck"? Would Prince Charles do that? Surprisingly, YES. There is a trait of ALL of the House of Windsor to DESPISE Formality Overdone. (It's even shown up in Elizabeth II.) While there ARE places FOR Formality Overdone, you should NOT have to use it everywhere. While royalty is royalty, they are still also PEOPLE - which the subjects tend to forget in their insistence on placing them on that pedestal (with the bulls-eye behind it) - and it's something that NONE of the house of Windsor has forgotten. (Remember, George VII abdicated the throne over it. In fact, look at recent abdications outside of the UK.) That is, in fact, why I found "We Few" (David Weber and John Ringo) interesting reading - it provides a worms' eye REALISTIC view of court politics - the only other such in recent memory is the FX series "Tyrant".

Rolls sports car? Rolls-manufactured, but NOT wearing the Rolls name. It exists; it is the Bentley (Rolls-Royce's non-chafeurr-driven high-end brand) Continental R - the odd one does get brought into the United States. Break out your Google-fu and look up the history of it.

This is a new one - not there being another prophecy (that's been used before), but the ICW AS A WHOLE (basically the magical UN) getting their walking papers. And they KNEW about it. This isn't the Hogwarts BOARD getting their walking papers (which is going to happen anyway because of what Harry inherited) this is Much Bigger (and explains the Missing Hermione). It also means that the two are still somewhere in the UK - where anyone magical is LEAST likely to be able to discover them.

Harry (with the help of the Goblins) breaks out Ye Mithril Clue By Four and commences whacking all and sundry (from Dumbles to Hermione - fortunately for Hermione, HER Clue By Four is made of foam rubber). Amazingly, while the story DOES leak to the Daily Prophet (AKA Magical Pravda), they are convinced (by Rita Skeeter, of all folks) to sit on said story (it was actually her own idea - no blackmail OR prodding from Harry) - therefore, no leakage. The Johnson and Johnson comment actually holds up (though UK-based UNILEVER now leads J&J in soaps for consumers).

**chuckling** I like that ... Harry just vanishing in front of his face!

I'm curious ... Do the key members of the Order realize what a lowdown scoundrel Albus is, stealing from Harry? Would they continue to do his bidding if they did know? Or are they in on the swindle and taking their own cuts from Harry's inheritance?

Interesting and fun to read, sadly it appears to be a dead fic seeing that last update was in 2008...

Wow!

hee hee Hilarious!

Go, Harry!

This is a good story. I wish that you would update soon.

Enjoyed reading what you've written so far, Its a shame you decided to abandon the story. I do hope that you decide to complete the story one day.

either harry will soon go postal and make voldy go boomboom or he'll find hermione, not go postal, and still make voldy go boomboom

how in chapter 14, is dumbledore thinking about an upcoming meeting with amelia bones when you killed her off in chapter 4? it was one of the headlines.

"MASS DEATHEATER ATTACKS! MASS AZKABAN ESCAPE! DEMENTOR DEFECTION!

The Wizarding world reels from a resurgence of DE activity, High ministry officials assassinated, including Bones."

a very very fine fic update soon and send all that bastards to hell or at least to azkaban
