Well ok. But then if thats the case I want to see her tearing her hair
out in anguish when she realizes what she's denied herself. Bill and
Charlie must be publicily humiliated in the worst possible way. IE
spread rumors that they are carrying a STD which they got from either
Bellatrix LeStrange, or a goat. :D

Like A Phoenix from the Ashes - is superb and I'm dying to see Ginny
learn the truth and realize exactly what she's lost. Personally I'd
suggest some very serious grovelling on her part before you even let
Harry CONSIDER forgiving that girl.

What I like is you manage to build a compelling story, and in most of
your storys you throw in a dash of sex without making it seem
gratuitious (sp?). You have several right now that I'm dying to see
updates to that are wonderful stories.

Family Matters - is a wonderful fiction (and its in our links)

Sorcerer's Apprentice - another wonderful fic in need of an update.
(Now I bet you wished you stuck with one fic at a time like we do...)

Three for all - a Honks/Hermione fic. Normally I'm not a big fan of
honks fics, but this one works if you ask me. Another fic in need of
an update.

All these fics can be found at


If you're over 18, or of legal age in your country, and have some clue
how humans procreate then I suggest looking into these. If you haven't
a clue... well I'm sorry :)

Does anyone remember a fic where Voldemort is using childen
and "sucking" their magical energy. Harry uses sword and starts to
carve the names and ages of the children into stones on Hogwarts
grounds. Thanks David

Aha! Yes, AVEBURY is the town in the middle of the circle.
AMESBURY is the town nearest Stonehenge, which also has *another*
smaller circle and the ruins of the abbey where Guinevere was
supposedly cloistered. So there's Arthurian connotations all over
the place. And Stonehenge/Amesbury would probably go down
together. And I still think that the town has some significance,
unless Bob and Alyx are just going to add a little "canon character
death" pathos by blowing up Lavender Brown when she's home for
Easter hols.

Of course, Avebury really isn't all that far from
Amesbury/Stonehenge either.

We shall just have to wait and see.

I don't know about "good", but here's a culturally "different"
reason ... I'm writing a story with some Native American elements in
it. As we know if we have not restricted our reading to PC texts,
there were some elements of Native cultures which were rather
unpleasant - so a cruciatus could be used not only to torture
captured warriors but to train the warriors of one's own tribe to
resist pain, so that if, for example, they were wounded while on a
scout mission they wouldn't give the mission away by crying out, or
something like that. Also so that if they were captured themselves,
they could endure torture to gain maximum honor. I can see wizard
samurai doing something similar - if you've trained under cruciatus,
you can pretty much ignore the pain of seppuku. Probably the Norse
or the Mongolians could have used it for similar reasons. Endurance
tests as part of manhood rites are big in a lot of cultures.

Things are different in a warrior/barbarian culture. It's only when
the culture is "civilized" that no purpose is seen for it.

Sorry, I just don't buy it. There are nerve pressure points which
medical personal may use to see if a person is truly unconscious or
not, but cruciatus? Nope. That spell is too generalized and causes

too

much pain.

I look at it this way. There are some spells which were deliberately
designed to hurt people, and others which have been corrupted over

the

centuries into that catagory. Most of the spells aren't dark. Its

the

intent of the caster to make them so. Should someone actually come

up

with a good reason as to why cruciatus can be used for good I'm
willing to listen. But I don't believe there is a good reason for

it.

- Bob

I don't buy it either, but I did read a story where they explained it by
using the spell to basically jump start nerves after a serious injury. A
person can't feel anymore and after the initial injury is fixed they used it
to basically restart the nervous system.

Just a thought

yeah right, and enervate then? the crucio can be used, of course, but
it is a spell that deliberatly cause pain. Wouldn't it be simpler to
create a spell with the same result but without the pain?

Also, wouldn't casting it repeatedly on someone build up a resistance
to pain?

Same thing, one could improve their resistence in pain by using other
spell and potion that numb the nerves...

Okay, my reading of the new prophecy ... Lucius Malfoy's efforts to
destabilize things in the Muggle world will continue until somebody
manages to drop a missle (or maybe a flaming airplane) on "ancient
stones." This could be Hogwarts, but I don't think so, since taking
Hogwarts is one of Voldemort's goals. It could also be Stonehenge, if
only because that's the most ancient set of stones anybody thinks
about in England, and it's been linked with Merlin in its mythology.
But there's another set of stones, equally as old and also having
Merlin links: Amesbury, a stone circle big enough to have a town in
the middle of it ... the town where Norma Brown seems to live. I
don't think you would have brought that specific town into the story
without a reason. So I think it's the Amesbury circle (and town) that
will be blown up, thus starting the twenty days that Harry's group
will have for the evacuation. The question is whether that site is
picked for Muggle reasons, for Voldemort's reasons, or as a result of
what Molly Weasley has done, getting Norma Brown involved.

I can't wait to find out.

Hi.
I'm a sucker for good Quidditch. I will read any fic that has a match in it. I disagree with the implication that Quidditch is the sign of a weak fic. Badly written action is the sign of a weak author/beta. Sports action is VERY different than dueling.

I've played all the HP video games in a quest to experience it right. None really match my imagination, though.

I see Quidditch being a very rough sport, one that is up there with rugby and American Football. At 100 mph. In the air. On brooms.
None of the kid 'hogwarts' quidditch... world cup or professional stuff. :)
Here's my request:

Anyone have recommendations for fics that are Quidditch based?
I've seen "Daily Prophet Reporting"s stuff... but I'm looking for more real, good quality sportswriting.
I'm spoiled. I've read enough (and written) sports stories to look for the good stuff.

Amesbury England

Norma Brown [...] owls leg. The birth then sprang
aloft and flew back out the window.

It's BIRD, not birth. :D Sorry, my Beta side took over
and I just had to point out the error.

I replied to his post, becaue I have questions that I
forgot but hope to remember. The chapter is great,
like many of the others, and the cliffie is worthy of
V's evilness...

The Muggle Ministry. Are you going to detail some of
the steps they take, or just say that XX Muggles
survived, XX escaped, XX will live unde V's rule?

On the sex issue. I hope it will be in the next three
chapters. Harry needs ro relax, more so after he comes
back from his rescue mission, probably battered, and
will be confined to bed-rest. A good opportunity for
Hermione to "take advantage of him" :D, and to take
his mind off the bad things. That of course, if both
her parents are rescued and (almost) okay, which I
hope will happen. So, you have a helpless Harry,
confined to his bed, filled with dark thoughts. What
better way to distract him than a beautiful girl? Even
if they don't shag, but just hold each other.

Umm... McGonagall and the other teachers. I suppose
that having Occlumency training is a valid point, as
there are secrets they don't want students to know,
and a moderate Legilimens can skim surface thoughts
without them noticing. Will she take a more active
role in Harry's Brotherhood? Filius, too, I suppose.

Arthur Weasley. Well, it's unexpected, but a nice
change. The Weasley kids need a parental figure, no
matter their age. It will do them good to know that
the one they looked up too is still worthy of some
respect. And separating from Molly is a good thing, as
she would smother them, and stop them from becoming
what they truly want.

Hmmm... Will Remus and Tonks get married? Will Alyx
and Bob the aurors kill the spelling mistakes? Will
the reviewers stop pestering the authors for the next
chapter? Will Jesus come back this century? Will Snape
die in this fic/the sequel? Was the letter Snape sent
about Hermione's parents? If not what was it about? If
you can't tell me, in which chapter will we find out?
When will Hogwarts be destroyed/taken over? At least
the chapter, if possible, so I have tissues ready. How
will Hermione deal with her father's view of her (I
mean, the "she's still too young" attitude)? Umm...
Will we get more explicit sex scenes between the
Grangers? And will Hermione tell Harry why her parents
were looking like that at the table? How.....

Enough questions? And I DO want answers. :D

Hey, first loved the new chapter and i quess everything up til now

has been the calm before the storm but as your notes says it will get
more evil, dark and sexual before it is over with but then just think
there is always a calm after the storm before another front moves in
to take it's place. You ever notice it will down pour when you walk
out the door but when you walk in it stops. Oh well..Loved the new
chapter and love the story such a wonderful creative idea and you two
definately have compatible writing styles. I love the pet peeves as
well.

Now my question, I may have missed and I will go back and reread the

story but I thought the Grangers' were in hinding so why are they
working? I thought they were staying at Grimmald Place. Have they
been working this entire time and just returning at the end of the
day? I'm sorry this is just something that either I missed in reading
or seems like an inconsisty...please don't take that the wrong way.
It just really caught me by suprise. I guess that is what made it
such a wonderful and powerful scene.

Nite,
Kelly

Don't let the bed bugs bite! If they do get a new bed or better yet

find someone else's bed. :-)

The Grangers put their house on the market when they moved into
Grimmauld place. Like so many people they could have opted to sit
around doing nothing and Harry wouldn't have minded a bit. But they
had a practise that they could get to from Grimmauld. They have been
continuing to work, but you can safely assume that's going to change.

It's actually mentioned in passing before the Grangers relocated to
Grimmauld so it's easy to overlook. :)
