Very moving ... *sniff*

Oh, wow! Very funny! Ah, the wizarding world has been turned upside down due to Dear Dumby's "advice" ... *roars with laughter* Oh, and the dialogues never failed to crack me up. I can imagine the hard time the Furniture Warehouse is having trying to stop Voldy's crying and kick him out from their premises *chuckles*.

Thanks for all the amusement and enjoyment you gave us with this short story! It was an entertaining read.

I wish there was a little less OOCness, though. At least this isn't one of the cliche-bashing stories - I've read too many of those.

[/attempt at a meaningful review which should be more than a one-liner]

Author's Response: Thank you! *Giggles* I know, I did feel a bit sorry for Bob! I can\'t say I\'d want to be delegated his job of shifting an emotionally wrecked Voldemort from the premices - but then I\'d want him to stay even less! I know that some of the characters were a bit OoC at times, but I did try to keep them as close as possible to canon whilst keeping the story on the same track. owever, in my next humour story, (which will be coming!) I will definitely take that on board! I\'m so thrilled that you\'ve found yourself amused and that you\'ve enjoyed that story - thank you for reviewing!!

I've been reading this fic for ages (and haven't reviewed - stupid me), and it's getting even more hilarious!

BTW, who's that "Vote for Cornelius Fudge as Minister" person? Percy or Umbridge?

Author's Response: Ah well, better late than never!! I\'m gald you\'re enjoying it! \'Vote Fudge For Minister\' was actually even less subtle than that - it was Fudge! Talk about underhand advertising campaigns...

Wow! *applause* Another fanfic wriiten by an awesome writer, Kerichi!

I just loved it, inspite of it being AU. Harry/Luna is a strange pairing, but I liked it how you made me believe it for a few minutes while reading the fic, at least.

By the way, I have a romance fic (my first one) and a WIP up. If you're not comfortable with the rating of my romance fic (Professors), you can check out my WIP ... please?

Author's Response: It\'s not AU- it could have happened! I wrote Harry/Luna after OotP, when Harry could talk to Luna when he couldn\'t talk to anyone else, and felt better...making writers like me say, hmmm....Harry and Luna....that would be very, very interesting! I think Jo was mean to \'take it back\' in HBP, having Harry squirm with discomfort and pity instead of appreciate her unique qualities. -_-

Interesting interpretation ... though I don't agree with it completely. I still don't want to think that Dumbledore actually asked Snape to kill him. :_( Great chapter nevertheless. Hoping for your next update soon!

Author's Response: Well, it's just one possibility among many. Only one woman knows for sure, and she hasn't even told her husband yet.

The last two chapters were good, but I feel you're revealing the plot a little too fast. Many unexpected things happen, which work well for creating a suspense-filled atmosphere - like Snape's capture and the possibility of destroying Helga's cup - but I could hardly take a breath. Of course, my review is not a flame, and hopefully, you won't consider it as one. I'm eager to see what happens next. I have a small word of advice, though. The story will be more believable and gripping if the pace were to be slowed down just a little bit.

That apart, I like the little flaws you've maintained in the characters; without going overboard. One of them is really worrying - the fact that Harry hasn't perfected non-verbal spells yet could prove to be a weakness - while the other (Ron's undignified eating habits) is simply hilarious.

I didn't expect McGonagall to ask Harry, of all people, to use Legilimency on Snape. You're right; he isn't ready for that yet. And I'm glad he's got a little break from all that Horcrux hunting. Good luck with the rest of the story!

I like the story, but I think more details have to be put in, in some places.

Author's Response: Agreed. Editing good. Also, there are details that I have intentionally left out so I can flesh them out later. Remember, this is a first attempt at fanfic, and I dont' want to go into too much detail, since too much detail bores me to death.

Awesome fanfic! I haven't seen this kind of HP story anywhere else ...

Author's Response: It\'s awesome, huh? I\'ll try to keep it that way...if I fail miserably do not think too badly of me.

Update, finally!

I know exactly who Mortimer was. He was Ron's uncle Bilius, wasn't he?

I think I know what they encountered ... Tauris (sp)?

Author's Response: You\'ll find out soon enough...about what they encountered not who Mortimer is. I will reveal who he is in a later chapter.

It was very moving. I like the way you portrayed suicide in a non-offensive and not-so-affecting way (mainly because Harry doesn't really die). Ginny as an angel ... that was marvellous.

Well done, Megan!

Author's Response: Thanks a lot for the compliments! They really mean a lot, as well as the fact that you took the time to leave a review. I\'m glad you liked the story. I was amazed, to be honest, at how well it turned out, considering just how quickly it was put together. It\'s had a good response, though, and I\'m glad you thought I handled everything well. Again, thanks for reading and reviewing. ~Megan
