hmmm...interesting characterization of Petunia, not at all by canon.
Nice part about Harry and his dreams though -- you see his torment but not over the top like some do.
Congratulations on getting archived here! This is looking to be an interesting story. I love Petunia's "a - a walking dead person". You can see she's grasping for a suitable phrase, but can't quite bring herself to say "zombie".
Good luck for all your future chapters,
Sarah

Thanks, Sarah! It's about time I got this done, eh? I appreciate all your support!
I love it!! Really though, its mint. I think I like the thought that Aunt Petunia is good, and that Harry isn't perfect in fanfiction [[becuase thats one of the problems I have with it.]
Please, keep it coming. I like the way you write.
gotta love the dragons

Thanks for your nice comments. I appreciate you reviewing!
It's the same story that you stopped at the second chapter on SQ.net. You'll make a lot of revision or now you'll go ahead after this first two chapters?

Actually, I was frustrated by the revisions I had to make at SQ (just before HBP came out) and went back much closer to my original version. I've six chapters completed, and they've been done since before I posted the first one at SQ. I figured it was about time to dust this fic off and write it the way I like it.
Thanks for noticing!!!
A great first chapter! I'm looking forward to reading more. Your version of Aunt Petunia is interesting. If only she was that nice in cannon! Update soon.

Thanks, I will. Next week, I believe, Chapter Two will be submitted. Guess that means I'd better get a little farther along in writing chapter seven, right?
