Ooh, so this is the beginning of the tutoring which you hinted at in Patronus Wizards, I presume? :)

You're off to a great start with this - I like the love-hate theme you've gone for, within Slytherin no less! Your characterisation of Theodore is new and fresh and I do like learning more about him.

It could be, but it wasn't intentional.

I'm glad you enjoyed this. Part of the reason I didn't like shortening it was because I wasn't sure the personalities I wanted them to have could shine through properly even in a ficlet.

Thanks for reading!

I love your characterization of Theodore, especially the details of the potions ingredients and his "just-in-case" collection. I think Theodore would do very well on "Let's Make a Deal". ;) You have a gift for taking flat canon characters and making them real and interesting. Great job! :)

Aww, thanks! The potion ingredients were tough to find, so I'm glad you took notice of them ;). Theodore's collective habits will be seen again. I'm glad you think Theodore is interesting -- I'm enjoying writing him SOOO much.

As always, another beautiful fanfiction! =O)

I really love the way that you can write characters that aren´t so important in the books and give them such a strong personality. I liked too the way that they started to know each other more, with some questions that they didn´t want to answer!

I can´t wait for the others!

Well, right now Theodore Nott is the strongest personality, just because I've been writing him long before his shot in "Patronus Wizards." I hope that I can do the same with some of the other stories I have planned out.

Thanks for reading!
