Interesting point about Harry's calmness, Moon. I wonder if the bit about Harry needing to return once to Privet Drive in order to ensure protection til his 17th birthday is a key to something?

Or possibly just justifying his insistance on Harry's remaining with the Dursley's, now that he's admitted to knowing of his emotional neglect.

Still doesn't trust him, though!

AUGUSTA!!!!

I'm glad we have a name at all, but somehow Augusta doesn't sit right with me.

A squee for wired_lizard! That's her fanfic name for Neville's gran. :)

So Dumbledore's finally acknowledged the Dursley's negligence. Took bloody long enough.

I was so hoping Dudley would end up with a tail by the end of this chapter.

I liked Emily too. Sigh.

"Sadly, accidental rudeness occurs alarmingly often."

I so want this on an icon... There is just something so catchy about it!

More words of DOOM, about Harry this time... Damn. She did that in OotP, she said Grimmauld looked like the house of a dying person--and Sirius turned out to be the one who died. And now she's saying Harry looks ghostly...

Aha, a rift between Scrimmy and Dumbledore? I knew I didn't like him.

All the articles are interrupted just before they get good. There's gotta be something to those, something that'll turn out to be important. Nev, Scrimmy, and Harry as 'the chosen one'. *makes a note*

WTF is Side-Along Apparition?

Now I know I've read a fanfic like this once. Sirius's WILL, ahahahahaha!

Dumbledore talking about flighty temptresses is just all kinds of wrong.

Hehe...Harry is the Chosen One. *flashbacks to Star Wars*

prettylily July 17 2005, 17:44:19 UTC

Really? I saw The Matrix in that, though Neo was just The One.

drakyndra July 17 2005, 17:45:19 UTC

It works for so many fandoms! The Matrix, Star Wars, Buffy...
