I Was a Famous Hogwarts Professor continually got rejected, due to the new rules about stories submitted in script (mainly don't submit in script, lol) but if you really want to read the second story it can be found on my myspace sadly enough, lol...u'll see a blog link I Was a Famous Hogwarts Professor. Anyone can read it even if you don't have a myspace! Sorry it had to be done this way, but it's up there! =)
!!!!!!!!!!NEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!Note to all my Draught of Prospicio readers: I am sad to say that last semester, school officially kicked my tail...I made it through all my courses all right but I had to work hard to do so...the sequel to the Draught only made it to three chapters and I couldn't go any farther with it without it feeling forced and I don't want to make myself write it just for the sake of finishing it. I want to wait until it comes on its own. The next little while in school is the last part of my schooling. *dances around* but that leaves no time for writing...so unless the story comes in between classes, I’m going to have to put it on hold for now...I’m sorry if this disappoints anyone....I would love to quit school and just write all the time but unfortunately, I don't have that option at the moment...I will be on the site here and there, so if there's a story that you want me to read and review that's not to terribly long, or you just want to talk send me an email or something and I’ll get back to you =)

Author's Response: Of course, have to keep in the purple hair!
Date: 08/27/05 Title: Chapter 9: Love Bites
bahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry, it's not funny that luna has been bitten, it's just the line u had her say as she got bitten, i seem to have become infatuated with the blue-crested willawomp...i have put 'I do, I Do I DO believe in Blue-Crested Willawomps' like everywhere...don't worry, i've credited you...people keep asking me what willa womps are and i keep telling them they have to read the year of the dragon, lol...ok...back to the story. i loved the draco luna moment despite the snake at the end...and the streaks were back again, excellent!!!!! feisty dragon aye...coolness...charlie seemed to be likin that, lol...nice touch having morgan give a scale to the girls to use in their hair, i would have never thought of something like that, you're so creative...excellent job! brilliant chapter as usual...so will there be hot tub in the next chapter *waggly eyebrows* lol...j/k...great job=)
Date: 05/29/06 Title: Chapter 12: Vanished
ok, i wanted it to spice up a bit...but lucious to get luna and hermione!!! *biting nails in suspense* and ron still can't touch her if he gets there to save her...that puts a nice spin on things...ok *breathing now*...on a more light note...i had forgotten, 'I do, I Do, I DO believe in blue crested Willawomps!' so much fun...thats the beauty of coming back to a story that u read a while back, u get to have the memories from then and the newness from now!!
Author's Response: Well, you did ask for it!
Date: 06/17/05 Title: Chapter 1: Summertime Surprises
grrrrr....this login problem is getting worse and worse i have to log in like a million times *takes cleansing breaths* ok, sorry...i need to whine a little bit...now...im soooooooo happy that your sequel is up, yay...great first chapter to start getting us into things...throwing draco in the mix this time i see...excellent...3 hot guys are always better than 2, lol...and oh yeah you knew i would ask about this, does ginny still have 2 purple streaks of hair? just wondering ;-)...very excited to read more, i want to know what the deal with draco is, and if bella gets out of the eternal burning flame thingy...ok sorry...i seem to be spazing out a bit...i'll go now...did i mentioning im excited =)
Author's Response: I KNOW! I went camping this weekend and have a TON of reviews to respond to, and this log in thing is NOT making it very easy!!! *takes a page from Burrowbrat's book and takes a deep cleansing breath*. Of course Ginny still has the purple streaks, I just haven't mentioned them yet :) Don't worry, I'll make sure to fit it in the next chapter just for you :) Draco is definitely going to be in this part of the story more, but for very bad reasons. He may not seem like his usual self for a while. Bella may get a mention, but she won't be the main element of evil in this story. Spaz out all you want.....it's healthy!!!!!!!!!
Date: 05/29/06 Title: Chapter 13: Happy Hour
where's hermione!? what the crap!?....ok...the suspense is really gettin good now...i think imma just go on to the next chapter...yeah...i'll review then...dun dun dun
Author's Response: Sorry, I had a few chapters with not much action, so I had to make up for it.

Author's Response: Well, Luna doesn\'t really claim to be all there, and she\'s mad...so...she kicked him!
Date: 05/29/06 Title: Chapter 15: Chaos Portal
wow...that is such an amazing spell, how in the world did u come up with it? oh my goodness i have missed reading fan fictions, especially yours. can't wait for the next chapter...wonder what's going on with morgan and charlie...and little tea spikin zeppie, lol...it was really nice having milius in the chapter, it was like having a visit from an old friend, and that spell book was very interesting...gosh there's so much to comment on...now nevelle has gone and got himself caught up in the mix, goodness gracious...ok, i think im going to stop trying to figure it out at this point and just wait *sigh*...wonderful work, so glad to be back in the flow of things with you, can't wait for more =)
Author's Response: I did a lot of research for the spell. And I\'m so glad to see you back! Thanks for the reviews Burrowbrat!
Date: 06/28/05 Title: Chapter 4: Happy Birthday, Harry
Ah, chapter 4, what a lovely thing to wake up to, lol...I kept checking yesterday over and over again but neither of your chapters had been posted yet, but fortunately for me, this one was up when I got on this morning...i wish they'd hurry up with baby...ok, enough ranting now...another wonderful chapter as usual, excellent work...I love Fred and George, they're so funny and cute at the same time *sigh* and ron with hermione in the dark room, who wouldn't want to be in hermione's shoes then...wait he's fictional pull yourself together girl...ok sorry got lost there for a moment. I felt so awful for zeppie in this chapter, but you did make me like him better...he wasn't just a cowering obeying house elf, he was a hero. great job. i still feel sad for draco. i know this is terrible but i even wish he felt up to being a little nasty, at least he wouldn't seem so down....well i seem to have run out of things to say now, if i commented on how much i loved everything i would just have to paste the whole chapter here in my review...oh and thanks for the 'advertisement' I feel special =)
Author's Response: Hey Burrowbrat! Thanks for reviewing! Success!!! I finally made you like Zeppie better!!! I was hoping when I wrote that part that you would :) BTW, chapter 3 of Baby is up and chapter 4 is in queue. I feel EXACTLY the same way you do about Fred and George. They are terrific, aren't they?? I don't hold anything against you for wanting to be in Hermione's shoes, even if Ron is a fictional character. He's fantastic too! Draco will not be returning to his full on nasty self in this story, as I have other plans for him. When he returns to Hogwarts he will however get a chance to stick his foot in his mouth and unintentionally hurt someone's feelings (any guesses as to who?). Thanks for another lovely long review, and if you get the chance, read chapter 3 of Baby, since it's finally up!
Date: 07/25/05 Title: Chapter 6: Hogwarts, Sweet Hogwarts
Finally!!!!! I'm glad your new chapter is up!!!!! definite zeppie improvement (for me anyway) i liked him much better in this chapter, seems to be on the right path to thinking for himself, great job...the sorting hat song was amazing...i got goose bumps a couple times, it just seemed perfect...the Draco/Luna thing is working better for me now, i think i just had to get around it in my brain (and it doesn't hurt that i feel awful for Draco in the real series now too, he's kinda stuck between a rock and a hard place isn't he) i don't know why i found this part funny but when luna ran into hermione mid sentence and then draco did the same thing i just started laughing, i don't know what it was but i thought it was funny...all the awards, when i was reading that part i was like, yeah why hasn't the ministry done anything for them after all that they've done (but i suppose that would show that actual warm blooded individuals were in charge over there)...ron and hermione's rooms, wow, where do i sign up? lol...as for my prediction as to who is DADA prof well my first thought was krum for some reason (cause didn't they study dark arts at dermstrung supposedly) but then after reading everyone else’s reviews, charlie sounds like a good choice too, so i have no idea who it is...makes it more fun when i read the next chapter and find out, lol...excellent work as always=)
Author's Response: I am SO glad that you can finally not be annoyed with Zeppie! There's a big surprise with him coming up! I'm glad everyone seems to like the Sorting Hat song. I worked hard on it. I'd make this response longer, but I have to get caught up! Thanks so much for a super terrific review!
Date: 06/22/05 Title: Chapter 2: Draco Malfoy?!
no purple hair in this chapter *sniff*...lol...i suppose i'll get over it, eventually :-P alrighty now...i know everyone keeps talking about it but i cant not mention the bacon line...omgosh...i was laughing at my computer so hard...im so glad there wasn't anyone else here at the time...i want to come up with the best crup name but grrrrrrr...dumblydoor had a perfect one....*grumble grumble* hummm....what can i come up with....think, think, think....sirius...no wait that's what their kid's name is in the other story...ummm...how about star, cause sirius is the dog star....still thinking...how about astrum, it means star or constellation in latin...ok i give up...lol...i guess im just really bored this morning...i'll go and leave your review bored alone now...la la la la la la...another great chapter =)
Author's Response: Don't worry, Burrowbrat, I'm writing chapter 3 right now, and I solemnly swear to mention Ginny's purple highlights, just for you :) Glad you liked the bacon line, I laughed when it popped into my head while I was writing. I thought it might be nice to see a lighter side to Draco before what is coming up. The Draco you see in the next chapter still won't be quite himself, but you'll find out more about why. Out of all the names you suggested, I like Astrum the best! BTW, Your latest chapter was GREAT!!!
Date: 08/04/05 Title: Chapter 8: Morgan's Tale
wow, new chapter up fast, i'm going to have to make some inside connections, i'm getting tired of waiting weeks for my chapters to be validated...ok enough whining on my part...excellent job as usual...even though i didn't get to be the dragon, i suppose i'll survive (i don't really have a good dragon name anyway, lol) surprisingly enough, i love the draco luna bit...i didn’t want it to end, it was really convincing and very enjoyable to read, more in the future please *big doe eyes* sorry ok now, a talking stuck animagus dragon from australia, lol...awesome, very original, so when morgan finally does a selfless act and turns back into a witch i wonder who she'll end up with *mischevious smile* lol...sorry, always trying to pair people up, hot lips is back...*sigh* to be in a classroom with ronald bilius weasley for 45 minutes *sigh* lol...sorry, there goes my fantasies with fictional characters again, gotta stop that, lol...anyways, wonderful job, and can't wait to read more, and might i end with… ‘I do, I Do, I DO believe in Blue-Crested Willawomps’=)
Author's Response: I know...Chelsea is just awesomer than words can say! Glad you liked Draco/Luna, I promise to put some more in the next chapter, after all, it will be the Ball! All right Burrowbrat, I DO have someone in mind for Morgan once she changes back. Who do you think it is? You and your Ron fantasies! Don't worry, it's okay. Like I said...if I was younger I might have them too :) ANd yes, Blue-Crested Willawomps are out there! Maybe I should start a new club! Now that the log in glitch is fixed we've got to have a new club!! Save the Blue-Crested Willawomps!
Date: 07/27/05 Title: Chapter 7: Lurking in the Forest
alas, i stumbled upon the new chapter far too late to have a go at the dragon...the antipodean opaleye was going to be my guess, but then i started reading the reviews and saw that it had already been guessed *sniff* well now i'm going to be petty since i couldn't win...how exactly did the dragon come to be that near to hogwarts, i thought a.o.'s were native to New Zealand and occasionally migrated to Australia, and further more i thought it dwelled in valleys rather than mountains, and isn't hogwarts supposedly in the mountains of scottland, did someone bring it there, charlie perhaps, lol...sorry...ok, bitterness over now....la la la la la...i loved this chapter as usual, charlie is a very appropriate d.a.d.a. teacher considering how there are foreign dragons lurking about, lol (sorry, i'll stop mentioning it) i love how luna is so enthusiastic about draco being her friend...it's funny and sweet all at the same time, and draco and harry paring together in d.a.d.a...good job, this new situation is making everyone grow up a bit wouldn't u say, excellent way to bring about unity too, not only can they stand the site of malfoy without wanting to hex him but now there’s this new unity ball, wow...good idea, make them get outside of their comfort zones, sometimes people have to be shoved out of their natural elements before they'll try anything new, excellent idea...zabini with ginny is rather funny after having read hbp and finding out that he fancy's how she looks (but will have nothing to do w/ a 'blood traitor') sorry just noticing...great job as always crafty, i'm always very excited when i see that there is a new chapter of yours to read, just makes my day...well so long for now=)
Author's Response: Don't be sad Burrowbrat! I'm going to have more contests, you'll just have to keep an eye out! Next time I'll email and let you know when I'm going to have one so you have a heads up, kay? Don't worry, I have a perfectly logical explanation as to why there is an Austrailian dragon in Scotland. It actually has nothing to do with Charlie. You'll find out in the next chapter. I'm having loads of fun with Luna! Wait till you see what she does in the next chapter! I thought the Unity Ball would be a great way to get people conversing with people they might normally not since they are in different houses. I'm planning to eventually show that not all Slytherins are bad apples. I'm going to try and get chapter 8 up before the weekend, so look for it. Maybe I'll come up with another contest for it!
Date: 06/23/05 Title: Chapter 3: The Killer at Large
Where do i begin...well i was going to sulk because you didn't pick one of my names, but i'm over it after the awesome chapter and padfoot is a good name for him, lol...*jumping up and down in crazy circles* "Did I ever tell you how beautiful these silly purple streaks make you look?" YOU FINALLY MENTIONED THE STREAKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry im just really excited and it's late and i cant sleep.....sorry back to the story...wow, the whole Draco thing, that's kinda what i thought happened but not the way i thought it happened...very intense...and what's with Zeppie...jeez is there something more to him than just innocent little house elf...he's beginning to irk me (not ur story just how he is, you know like wormtail irks me in the books...sorry felt the need to explain myself there, lol)...what's his story...mrs. weasley friends with narcissa...big twist there that i didn't see coming, great job and i can't wait to see how that will complicate things in the future...i'm actually feeling sorry for draco, he seems like a little lost 'cruppy' who's just lost his mummy...very sad, although you said he was going to be trouble so im sure i'll get over this sympathy later....and what were the other presents, i must know....oh btw thanks for recommending my story, your a lovely person...did i mention this is a great chapter as usual? Well it is…ok im gone now…tootles =)
Author's Response: Wow! What else could I expect from you but another nice long review?? :) Yes, I had to mention the streaks, and I want you to know I did it just for you ;) Gotta keep your reviewers happy! I'm glad my explanation for what happened to Draco came across okay, I was a bit worried about it. As for Zeppie, as I told phoenixtrills, there's no dark motive behind him, he's just looking for a new life. I may include more background info on him later, like which family it was he came from. I'm sorry he's irking you, I'm not intending for him to be irksome. If you have any ideas on how he could be less so, or anything I could have him do to make you like him more, PLEASE let me know :) As far as Draco goes, I probably won't have him go back to his total loathsome self in this fic. Seeing his mum get killed would be, I think, a life-changing experience. I don't have plans for him to be big buddies with the foursome or anything like that.....but I also don't think I'm going to have him as worried about tormenting them. Some of the mystery gifts will show up in the next chapter, maybe not the other one Harry bought for Ginny though, I'm not sure. But you're a clever girl, I bet you can figure out what else he bought for her ;) As for recommending your story, how could I not? It's fabulous! In fact, in some of my author's notes I've been plugging fab fics that I think people should read. Could I mention yours in my next chapter? Let me know!!!!
Date: 07/01/05 Title: Chapter 5: The Letter
ok...i've finally made it over here to read this wonderful chapter...you mentioned the purple streaks again...YYYYYYYYAAAAAAYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!...*cough*...alrighty...now...i liked how you had ginny's broom be a charity thing, so that she wouldn't feel so bad about having it. i was wondering how you were going to get around that...and fred and george, omgosh...funny stuff...seeing hermione in her pj's huh...hummm...naughty boys, lol...like they've ever been innocent little angels...i wonder if zeppie will follow hermione to hogwarts and meet up with all the house elves there...hummm....and just one thing, isn't draco a prefect too, or did he drop that position since his dad went psycho and everything? (i couldn’t remember if you said or not and im too lazy to go back and look right now)…luna and draco, very interesting...she seems a bit too loopy for him but i'm interested to see where you take this...great job as always...patiently awaiting the next chapter of either this story or baby...whichever comes first =)
Author's Response: Well, you being such a big fan of the purple hair, you are going to love chapter 5 of Baby. Yes, Fred and George are always naughty, but it's what makes them great!! Hmmmmm.....is Zeppie going to follow Hermione to Hogwarts? Surely not! She convinced him to stay with Mr. and Mrs. Weasley. Or did she? Guess you'll just have to keep reading! As for Draco being a prefect, I figured with all that was going on, Draco was looking for some comfort in being with his so-called friends. He was a bad boy and skipped the prefects meeting. When Draco was under the influence of the Calming draught, the way he was acting made Luna the perfect person for him to run into. Luna is actually challenging to write, because she likes to say and do so many random things. She'll be around more in chapter 6. The way things are going, when I submit chapter 6 of this Sunday night, it will probably get validated before the 4th chapter of Baby (which has been in queue since Tuesday).

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!! OMGOSH THAT WAS HILARIOUS!!!!!!!! *taking deep breaths to calm my breathing back to a normal state* that was wonderful, i've been out of town and was just now able to read this....i don't know where to begin, let me think.....ok, fred and george are excellent any time of any day and i could so see them doing something like this....and everyone’s confessions of lust for one another were hilarious, omgosh, draco kept cracking me up but i feel the same as hermione, he is a sexy beast but i'd rather be in a broom closet with ron any day, lol...and how ron seemed to take hermione's roll of shooting his hand up, lol, however to make ridiculous confessions hahahahaha (sorry another burst of laughter)....and snape looking at his newest copy of playwitch, and not washing his hair because it's too much of a nuisance...priceless...and mcg and dumbledore...dumbledore *wailing uncontrollably* sorry got a little carried away there, im ok...i know everything happens for a reason, now back to the funny fic...."And might I just say, you have the cutest little nose."...now where have i heard that before, lol...and sprout a lush, i can so see that, lol...oh my i keep laughing out loud i better stop before i have to send out for an oxygen tank, if i tried to put everything in here that i liked i'd just have to paste the whole story into my review (but i won't do that to you hehe) brilliant fic can't wait for more chapters of your other stories to get posted and you should definitely write more humor, i love it =)
Author's Response: Coming from a funny girl like yourself, I'll take this as a compliment! I do plan on writing more humor. The next humor I do will be a oneshot sequel to this.
Git in Shining Armor by juniorauthor
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Ronald Weasley struggles with his teaspoon's worth of emotions during Hermione's stay at the Burrow summer after fifth year. With the Twins succumbing the household to spontaneous product trials, and a new Minister of Magic, one would think that Hermione's Bulgarian pen pal would be the least of Ron's problems.
And that would be what one would get for thinking.
Surprises abound (the Good and the Bad) assure the Weasleys and their house guest this will be a summer all but one of them will never forget.
Final chapter is in queue. Wow, that took forever, didn't it?
