This is a good story. I like the side story about The Saint! For the muggle neighbors to be afraid of one of the nicest people alive is funny and sad. Funny because it is so wrong and they would have found out if they had just given Harry and chance. Sad because again the Durseleys have again succeeded in tarnishing Harry's reputation for no good reason. I am glad that Tonks talked to Harry about Ginny. It was interesting that Ginny is "mad"! I hope Harry picked up on that fact and I hope he sees the light. He really needs Ginny and he needs to do something about it. Thanks for writing. I look forward to more of this story. p

The Durseleys really are a piece of work. Glad you liked the idea of the Saint.
Great beginning. I'm looking forward to reading the rest of it. OF course, as soon as I saw "the Saint" I thought of the Val Kilmer movie. I wonder if you'll use it in here at all?

Nothing to do with either the movie or the old TV show. This story will not be heading in the direction of a master theif story. The only similarity is that both Harry and that Saint are both orphans. Though it does sound like a fun direction for Harry.
This was a good start. The "Saint" business was very inventive and quite funny. I love that the Muggles on Privet Drive are afraid of Harry. I'm interested to see where this goes and look forward to reading more.
A very nice start to a promising story. I'm really looking forward to the rest of it. That said, I chuckled at the reason for Harry's nickname and the fact that Tonks thinks that St. Brutus' actually teaches Muggles to become criminals! I hope to see an update soon because this is one story I will be adding to my tracking list.
