It's really refreshing to see someone write Quirrel vs Harry in anywhen other than the canon, and in any place other than the mirror chamber. It got repetitive after a while.

Scratch one Quirrelmort. Harry makes up with Fluffy, too. And all practically under Severus Snape's big beak.
Bravo!

just a quibble - but do you have any idea *why* Ron etc went off after the troll? In the original, all three were off obediently to the tower till Hermione was mentioned. Can't help thinking that it seems a bit weak, unless you're going to have Ron explain it later.

That was a very fun chapter. Been looking forward to it for a long time now. I'm hoping to see more with the rest of the family soon. I could just see Umbridge as a distant cousin or something. Heh.

Another wonderful chapter! Again, I thought the kids sounded a good deal older than 11, but whatever, still great.

Wonderful chapter! I enjoyed reading it and it was nice to see the events of that halloween played out differently. Funny how I never noticed that Hogwarts wasn't prepared for a "Fire" of sorts. Makes you realize that Hogwarts is lacking in a lot of qualities that make normal schools safe. Anyways great job and keep it up.

Love the story. It's such an original story idea and very well written too. I'm impressed.

Wonderful! Very Slytherin of Harry not to get bogged down in the troll problem. I thought Hermione's "I jinxed a teacher!" was perfect.

aha. excellent. It's good to see an original take on the going for the stone/killing quirell scene.
Usually authors just rehash what was in the book changing a few details.
So, yes, points for originality (and remaining reasonable and not going away with the fairies).

Terrific! It was interesting to see that an outside factor, namely Peeves, was still needed to "find" the room. I must say though, the following scene was brilliant, though too bad only Harry did anything major, it seems. Hmm, I suppose it matters not since only Harry's magic was effective in any manner. Heh, they even made a companion out of Cerberus.
...Are the English floorplans actually like that? Ah, sly Harry as always, checking for possible reprecussions and decreasing his enemies in the process. Amusing to see how the troll incident was morphed into a tale from fools.
Probably a good idea with the chapter postings, especially to prevent burnouts or anything.
I hope you update soon!

Great. I love this story - not as much as Fidelius, true, but I do love this story.

Nie! Just a couple of questions I was wondering about;
1. Is this a 1st year only univere?
2. If not, will you do all 7 books (once 7 comes out?)
3. Will Malfoy ever learn? *snickers uncontrollably*
4. How do you put up chapters/fics on this website? I wanted to put one up on the fanfiction website only to learn I got cut off because of that damnable picture ID thingamy.
Thanks and good uck wth whatever projects
M*T*D*L*

this story continues to grab and hold my attention. glad to see this chapter; can't wait for the next. fluffy was wonderful btw. still wonder about ron...a little OOC or does his ability to boast about besting the troll provide a needed boost to his self esteem? regardless, happy to see you're back at this one.

hah, i haven't been patient at all. i'm checking this every day! ah well - great update! i liked the way you delt with the whole troll/quirrel thing. Does this mean snape is still considered the one to try and break in or whatever?

Now that's an interesting twist. I don't think I've ever seen Quirrell dealt with that early before.
And the floor counting mix up was cute. I'd expect that they'd have already figured that out just going to class on different floors. But that shouldn't stand in the way of a good joke. :-)
Thanks for sharing this with us.
