I am a college student in the US. I literally grew up reading the Harry Potter series. I am hopelessly addicted to them. Most of the Sorting quizzes I've taken put me in Ravenclaw.
I love to read, write, and listen to music. Truth be told, I couldn't survive without any of those actions. They calm my scattered brain and greatly influence my obsession with exclamation points!!!
As a Chaser for the Harpies, Angelina Johnson is used to chasing goals, but when the team is sold and Blaise Zabini takes over management, she feels more like a Quaffle...and one that might not mind being handled.
Are you sure there isn't more? I mean, we know because of "For Bitter or for Worse" that they end up together, but how does it happen? Where is the official, public transition? What do her teammates say and think? How does his mother react to her? How does she react to his mother? So many questions!!! (I have issues stopping at "happily ever after"; which is probably why I love "Into the Woods". I want to know what happens AFTER happily ever after! It's a character flaw as a reader, but a definite advantage as a writer!)
Author's Response: There are so many stories in my head that I have to leave most of them up to the imagination. I don't think it's a character flaw. I think it's the sign of healthy curiosity and interest in people to wonder what happens after, and you're right, a writer can't do without it. ;)
I really like the idea of a changed Draco. He'll be so much fun to write about when I can constantly surprise people with his thoughtfulness. This is a really good chapter.
Oh, Hannnah and Neville, sooooooo cute!
Author's Response: About Draco - the moment in the epilogue when Harry and Malfoy nod at each other bothered me from the first time I read it. I was annoyed that I had no idea how they got from the battle at Hogwarts to that simple nod. I figured there had to be some juicy info there, but Ms Rowling did not let us in on it. I was determined to put something, anything, in my story that might explain that nod. I hope I have made it believable. Oh, and Hannah and Neville. I wasn't going to write them, but then Neville seemed lonely, so I thought I'd better get him together with his future wife somehow! Thanks for the review. Stay tuned. cj
Cute chapter! It's been so long since I read this fanfic, I thought it was time for a re-read!
Author's Response: Thanks for taking the time to re-read! cj
This is such an amazing story! I'm really looking forward to the next update.
Happy writing!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I just finished the next chapter this past week - hopefully it will be accepted soon. cj
=)
Author's Response: :) cj
=) means I am too excited for reading that I don't have time to write!
Author's Response: Pleased that you are enjoying the story! cj
=)
Author's Response: Still enjoying, I see. Great! cj
=) thus returns protective big brother!
Author's Response: Yeah, where was he hiding, eh? Ron cracks me up. cj
=)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this story, and I can't wait for an update!
Author's Response: Thank you! I love getting reviews! cj
That right there is one Hell of a birthday present!
There's something I don't like about this Henderson guy. Looking forward to the next chapter, though!
You're a really good writer. This is a sweet story, and I really can imagine it that way!
Author's Response: Thank you very much! You're so sweet. cj
It was like a wizard tale. The clever Slytherin helps a hag who later repays the debt. Except that Rose Weasley wasn't a hag, and Scorpius didn't expect to call in the favour.

I love your little story references! This is a really good fanfic so far!
Author's Response: Thank you! That's a perk of fan fiction. :)
Well, well, well, interesting chapter. I think it's kind of funny. Is this really how they end up falling in love?
Author's Response: It's the first domino toppling. You can't see the pattern that's forming yet, but I hope you're looking forward to it. :D
He's never had a girlfriend? Wow. Coolness, though. Great chapter!
Author's Response: He's dated girls, but none of them became girlfriends. Malfoy standards and all that. heh
Excellent story! You write beautifully.
Author's Response: You encourage beautifully. Thank you for your reviews!
It would be easier to kill his father than reason with him.

Go Draco! Lucius needed a good Stunning... stupid jerk! I happen to think Scorpius and Rose are adorable together! (They both end up being sorted into Ravenclaw in my version.) I'm really glad Draco and Astoria approve of Rose. It's nice to think old hatred are left in the past where they belong!
Author's Response: When Jo had Draco nod to Harry in the epilogue, it opened the way for Changed Draco characterizations. Huzzah! Not that I mind that my D/G epic is AU, heh, but it's nice to have my faith justified (kind of like with Snape--there were people I got to tell "I told you so!" :D)
:) Beautiful, just beautiful! I knew they ended up married, but I was still worried there for a little bit. After all, their kids are younger than Harry's and Ginny's. For all I knew, they could have broken up for a little bit. I'm glad they worked it out, though. It was good to reread this story. I had forgotten a few of the key points.
Author's Response: Thanks for the review, and for rereading - I'm not surprised you forgot things after nearly three years! It's great that you came back to it though - hopefully the final chapter will be up very soon. ~coolh5000
Poor Ron! It's a good thing school is over, or he wouldn't be able to focus on anything
So, now I know why there's an age warning. The words 'wank' and 'erection' are more mild than most things I've heard, but they still took my by surprise. Good chapter!
