I like the chapter,
GO DUMBLEDORE :p lol i suspect he might try something more subtile to get his hands on harry.
And next time he tries he should be told in a cough cough "subtile" way how futile it is to try and take him away. Plus it aint a good idea to bring him back to the dursleys.
well keep up the good work i look forward in seeing more

of all the talk of someone writing a Adams Family/Harry Potter Xover.. I'm glad you are the one to do it..

as his guardians.. wouldn't Mortica and Gomez get to see/read Harry's parent's will????

Ishtar replied:

Sure ... if Dumbledore had ever presented it for probate.   He didn't do it then and he can't do it now, and that's going to be an upcoming plot point.   Remember, Gomez is a lawyer.   He may lose all his criminal cases on purpose, but he's competent where family matters are concerned.

I continue to be amazed at how well you are pulling this off, hope to see more soon.

You write excellent Gomez. I liked the way you had Mrs Figg move in. Dumbledore's first impressions of the house were well done. I think you're right and it would have been that odd to him. More please. Very good chapter. I particularly enjoyed the reference to son of a bitch stew and the donation that showed exactly how rich the Addams family are.

Ishtar replied:

I like Gomez.   He! talks! in! exclamations! a lot!   Making extravagant charitable donations is the sort of thing he did in the TV show, so I kept it.   (Foreshadowing: Addams money vs. Malfoy money.   Who will win the battle for Fudge's bank account loyalty? Muwahahaha!)

I suppose it's too much to hope that Dumbles and Snape will get theirs before this little story is finished? I dream of seeing Albus publicly shown to be a manipulative bastard who thinks nothing of dropping off innocent babies that he has kidnapped on stranger's doorsteps. Will there ever be a fanfic where Dumbles becomes a wanted criminal for kidnapping and child neglect, along with the child abuse and mind raping he approves of at Hogwarts...when will there be justice for the children???

OUTSTANDING CHAPTER!!!! I can't wait to see what happens in the next chapter. I can't wait to see Harry "Growing up Addams" that should be most interesting if you ask me. I like how you have pretty much updated on an almost daily basis I like that, don't get me wrong if you updated on an every other day basis I still wouldn't complain, hell if you updated once a week I wouldn't complain, Bob and Alyx might but well there just strange, I still wonder if their not related to the Addams. Anyways DO keep up the amazingly awesome and outstanding work and update soon please:):):):)

Nice chapter. However I do not believe Dumbledore would have maintained the fiction of being merely a headmaster of a school (no matter how exclosive or prestigeous). While if he believed the Addams' were muggle he would not reveal the 'supreme wugwamp' and related titles but instead would have arranged documents showing him to have some sort of British official. Since he'd likely not have thought he'd need such documents in advance (since he'd expected to have the U.S auror equivalents to back him up) they'd be no more then transfigured papers or covered in illusion.

Dumbledore in the books only introduces himself as Headmaster but it's false humility since he knows he doesn't need to mention his other titles, and in fact by not mentioning them sometimes draws attention to them. Dealing with the Addams he wouldn't have that so would not have remained as just a headmaster when presenting himself.

Ishtar replied:

Dumbledore is used to people understanding, and responding to, all those understated titles as you point out.   It didn't even occur to him that in the U.S. he wouldn't have that clout, especially with Muggles (I get the feeling he doesn't deal with Muggles much at all, not even the parents of his students).   And the wards on the house were affecting his thinking.  

It has now been made obvious to him that he will have to take another tack.

BUWAHAHAH YOU SHALL NEVER MANIPULATE HARRY YOU OLD FOOL!!!^_^

*snicker* You -almost- have to feel sorry for Dumbledore here, but he set things in motion by neglecting/rejecting Harry's godfather and he'll have to live with what he gets; though that may well be far more outre' than what even he suspects.

*wicked smile* I'm enjoying this one.

go addams... go addams...

thanks for the info on the house and surrounding area. now i can look for it on line.

Quite good chapter!! I am sure Dumbledore will be back ,after he investigate the Addams of course, I think he will be quite disturbed and more when he learns that not only the Addams have legal papers, also magical ones to keep Harry safe. Maybe he can "upgrade" the wards in the mansion?

Harry seems happy and making good friends with the Addams children.

Also it seems that Petuina is using some of the wisedom she learn from the Addams, that is nice, I knew with out the presure of a wizard baby and some 'encouregement" she could change.

Hope to read more soon and see how Harry is growing.

Cheers.

This is an excellant crossover. So many times people mangle the original ideas, but this is coming along nicely. I'm looking forward to your next update.

*re-reads second end-of-chapter A/N* Yep, those are pretty words! *lets loose patented evil creepy laugh* Out of curiousity, can the Addamses perform any type of magic? (curious from both the last chapter and "Addams Family", during Morticia's interview with the job search lady - "Major?" ""Curses and hexes")

Can't wait for the next chapter - this is really fun to read!

Good luck

M*T*D*L*

I do believe this is quickly becoming one of my favorites. Thank you so much.

Yay!

I love the way you've adequately subdued the master manipulator!

Is Harry gonna be as... touched, as Wednesday or Pugsley?

Great chapter,

William
