I've been working on this story, "Trash to Treasure", for a while; unfortunately, it was rejected the first time for a bit of OOCness. I'm trying to fix it, and hopefully I'll have it up sometime soon.

Wow. Out of curiosity, did you mean to use "Hermione" in the last paragraph? You have "Hermione said" when you haven't told us that connection yet.
Again, wow. I'm really enjoying this story and I can't wait until you update again.

Author's Response: I did mean to have \"Hermione\" in the last paragraph. It\'s Neville\'s dialogue, not anyone else\'s. Sorry if that isn\'t clear!\r\n\r\n
Thanks for the review!
\r\nEponineHarry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin by fawkes_07
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: This is an alternate version of Book Seven. Harry reluctantly returns to Hogwarts to train with a new DADA teacher, one appointed in specifically for Harry in Dumbledore's will. As the rest of the Wizard World reacts to Dumbledore's defeat, Harry develops the skills he needs to fulfill the Prophecy--including mastery of the Kedavra curse.
Mysteries are explored along the way, particularly the "missing 24 hours" from 1981--the span of time between Hagrid taking Baby Harry from the ruins of Godric's Hollow on Halloween Night, and his arrival to hand off Baby Harry on Privet Drive the following night. The Veil Room in the Department of Mysteries is also revisited. A traitor is uncovered, and Dumbledore's wisdom comes into question. And even when all goes as planned, things are not all they seem.
Date: 07/24/07 Title: Chapter 35: Chapter 34: The Lost Boy
Awesome. Harry's reconciliation with Tura seemed a bit shaky, but I'm glad to see that there's still some trust there.
Can't wait for the next chapter!
Author's Response: Well, it is a bit shaky--she\'s not used to being decked like that, and she really wants Harry to think about the consequences of his actions.
Date: 07/26/07 Title: Chapter 37: Chapter 36: Wolf's Bane
Now, that was an intense chapter! I enjoyed it a lot. Peredhil *had* said he was sent by Fawkes...
Keep them coming, please!! I look forward to the next chapters....
Author's Response: True, that makes him seem much less sinister, huh?
Date: 09/21/07 Title: Chapter 39: Chapter 38: The Darkest Secret
WOW!!!! Huge plot twist! Update soon please... I'm in suspense. :) Good chapter, as always.
Author's Response: Thanks!
Date: 09/19/07 Title: Chapter 38: Chapter 37: Ways and Means
Awesome! I'm so glad Tura and Harry are speaking closely again... and that you are continuing!
I particularly liked the "damaged goods" part at the end. Keep it up!
Author's Response: Ten chapters to go...
Date: 07/16/07 Title: Chapter 33: Chapter 32: Truth and Consequences
Wow. I have only just noticed/gotten hooked into this fic, but I read it all in 2 days. I am amazed at all of the thought and plot in it, and I can't wait for the next chapters!
I was reading this when my roommate wanted to go to dinner... but I kept saying "just one more chapter" despite knowing that it isn't complete yet. ;)
Author's Response: !! Yay! Well, 33 will be up fairly soon, and 34-36 are done so they\'ll follow quickly.
Date: 10/15/07 Title: Chapter 40: Chapter 39: Bubbles Burst
YAY!!! They figured out who the traitor was!!
I liked the depiction of Harry and Dumbledore's anger scene; it seemed very fitting. It's pretty much what I was ready to do at the last chapter!
Keep up the good writing!
Author's Response: Thanks! I was hoping to convey both anger and new maturity.
Date: 09/05/07 Title: Chapter 37: Chapter 36: Wolf's Bane
I know I already said this... and I'm trying to be patient... trying... please please please update soon! I'm really glad to hear you haven't given up on it.
Author's Response: I finished 44 last night and 43 is almost done...I\'m getting there, I promise!
Date: 07/25/07 Title: Chapter 36: Chapter 35: Illuminations
I like this story a lot... thanks for keeping going with it! It's especially a way for me to keep thinking about Harry and the Wizarding world, since I don't have access to the book yet.
Keep it up!! I especially liked the different look at the first meeting. I am surprised, though, that the Order didn't find the secret room when they were de-Darking the house.
Author's Response: Well, the room wasn\'t necessarily Dark, even though Aunt Bella built it...
Draco, The Babysitter by mgle_teacher
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: After a potion goes awry, Draco finds himself as the newly appointed babysitter of one Hermione Granger, age: 4. As if that wasn't humiliating enough, his wand is confiscated by Potter and he is forced to do everything the dreaded Muggle way.
Note to my readers: This story has been on hiatus forever due to a variety of factors. I do hope to finish it some day, but don't hold your breath. Also, this is NOT a Dramione nor will I change it to be one. Lastly, I am in the process of rewriting this story so bear with me.
Date: 07/04/07 Title: Chapter 7: Muggles Do It Better
I am really enjoying this story... and I love toddler Hermione!! I also like that Mrs. Weasley put Harry in his place concerning Hermione's health, because he deserved a dressing-down.
I can't wait for an update!
Author's Response: Thank you!
I\'m glad you like it!
-hugs-
Just Laugh by Marauder by Midnight
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: As Charlie prepares the dragons for the first task, Minerva pays a surprise visit. However, when Charlie gets Minerva to drink Firewhisky... oops! Will Minerva give Charlie a detention? Or will she just laugh?
For Poultrygeist.
Date: 07/10/08 Title: Chapter 1: Just Laugh
This is a really cute story. I like the glimpse of Minerva letting her hair down-- she doesn't do it nearly enough in the books.
Good job! :)
The Book by Sarakime
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: It was just an other full day spent in the library for Hermione. That is, untill she comes across a mysterious old book that could change her fate forever.
Hermione always knew that by reading books, you can venture to new places and meet exciting new people. But the term has an entirely new meaning as she leafs through the entrancing pages of the book, Roman Mythology.
Written by Sarakime of Slytherin for the Myths and Magic prompt of the New Year Challenge.
Date: 12/13/07 Title: Chapter 1: The Book
I really enjoyed this fic. I think it would be even better if you could continue it with a different goddess/Muse per chapter. Maybe once the challenge is over?
In many ways, I find myself identifying with Hermione, and I am a classics major and study mythology. I think it's great that you've taken this link between them and written about it.
I loved the part at the very beginning in the library the best. It seems like the sort of thing I would do, and I think you characterized Hermione very well. Overall, great fic!
Happy Holidays from the Order of Ravenclaw House Elves!
Draco Malfoy, Gryffindor by helgaandgodric
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: What if Draco was a Gryffindor? Would he be as haughty without two "bodyguards" behind him 24/7? Would he be rude and mean? What would his parents say?
Date: 12/13/07 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
This is making me wish that Draco was a Gryffindor now! Very well written. I enjoyed it a lot. My only criticism is that some of the beginning (movements, entrances, etc.) was a little difficult to follow. Other than that, I loved it! Please consider continuing it once the challenge is over.
Happy Holidays from the Order of Ravenclaw House Elves!
Author's Response: Thank you very much! I\'ve been super busy, so I just noticed this now, but thank you, and Happy 2008!
Ron, I've Got Something To Tell You, But I Can't Say It by MrsRuebeusHagridDursley
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: In the purely fluff fic, Ron and Hermione are married, and expecting! But there's one problem. Hermione has lost her voice, and she needs to tell Ron about the pregnancy!
Date: 12/13/07 Title: Chapter 1: Ron, I've Got Something To Tell You, But I Can't Say It
Aww... This is cute. I'm usually not a huge fan of fluff, but I liked the humor in this one! I particularly liked how she thought back to her mother and tea.
But why wouldn't she think of an antidote right away? She was distracted by the baby, I guess, but it still seems like she's a good enough potions maker to think of that first.
Anyway, cute story. I really enjoyed it. Happy Holidays from the Order of Ravenclaw House Elves!
Author's Response: I\'m glad you were able to enjoy something you normally don\'t! Hearing that makes me feel really good about my writing.
That Which Cannot Kill Me by lilypotter93
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Lily Evans is not happy. Voldemort is gaining power, tensions between herself and Petunia are growing, her bridesmaid dress is pink, and to top it all off, JAMES POTTER is the new Head Boy! Despite such a biased pairing, can the two become a serious couple, or will they, like so many others in such a distrustful time, be ripped asunder?
Date: 09/06/07 Title: Chapter 1: Ominous Owls and Maleficent Mail
This is a neat story. I might question the use of some of the formatting, but otherwise it is quite good. I have but one question... will it be continued?
Author's Response: Yes, I\'ve already got the second chapter written. I\'m really busy with school, so it might take a while (and I still need to format it to html). Thanks for reading and reviewing!! :)
La Luna Bella by liquid_silver
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Ginny and Luna have a nighttime encounter on the Astronomy Tower. One-shot.
Date: 10/02/07 Title: Chapter 1: La Luna Bella
This is an adorable story. I particularly liked that you didn't refer to Ginny and Luna by name. I also think you characterized them well.
I'm generally skeptical of odd ships, but you pulled this one off well!
I hope you enjoy your banner!
Author's Response: Thank you! And I love the banner, thanks again.
On by Hansolohpfrk
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Death wasn't what he expected it to be. He is thrown into the same world many others before him had reached, and along the way, met a person he thought he would never see again. On his dying day, Severus Snape learned to forgive.
Date: 12/13/07 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
This is a very powerful story, complete in its own right. I could see it being continued with more of Heaven, but it really isn't necessary. I enjoyed this, because it shows that the really important part of Severus's nature was the part that wanted to do good (especially after all the controversy concerning him).
Happy Holidays from the Order of Ravenclaw House Elves!
Forgiveness by Pondering
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Lily waits patiently for the man she needs to forgive before she can move on. But after he returns, she finds that he's not the one she really has to forgive after all.
Written by Pondering of Ravenclaw
Date: 12/19/07 Title: Chapter 1: Forgiveness
I like this a lot... Severus has deserved a bit of love that he didn't get anywhere in the series... and this gave it to him! I've been wanting to see something like this for a while. Good job!
Seven Thousand Sunsets by FullofLife
Rated: 3rd-5th Years • Summary: When a fatal disease spreads like wildfire around the Wizarding World, it is up to Rose Weasley to find a cure - with the help of no other than Severus Snape. But working with a man she's fallen in love with is much harder than it sounds.
First Place in the Gauntlet's Sixth Run!
Date: 07/10/08 Title: Chapter 5: Meeting the Potion's Master
Wow. I really like how this story is going... Keep the chapters coming!
Author's Response: *salutes* It will be done!
