Bloody brilliant. That was the smartest way that Ive ever seen it done. I was just hoping for Sirius to somehow be helpful and get a good insult off.

| I'm not sure that I followed the events correctly. Did Harry create a horcrux of himself or take out the soul of Voldemort that was in him? I'll have to read on to see. |

Well, I couldn't have been more wrong about Snape. But I guess that's why you've got 1,500 reviews for this story and I haven't written a word of fanfiction in a year and a half. And it's not like the direction you decided to take was short on excitement. It's saying something when you can head-butt Sanpe, eviserate Draco and destroy Voldemort in one chapter.
Anyway, you definitely came up with a clever way to finish this. I love cyclical endings in the Potterverse and you certainly gave us a strong mirror image of the start of the whole Harry-Tom conflict. That Harry's friends had to trick him to accomplish it was very much in character, too. The end result was definitely a fun and extremely dramatic scene.
I was also impressed how you used Malfoy -- in this chapter especially, but in the story as a whole, really. Because right up until the end his arrogance and singularly self-interested nature dominated his character, it didn't feel odd as you slowly built up his motivation to help the good guys. And I thought that moment of utter shock when Draco realized Harry planned to sacrifice himself might of been the most striking and believable in the whole story. It's an act so antithetical to Draco's nature that I can hear hear the disbelief in my mind as I read it. Nice job illustrating that.
What I wasn't so sold about was Harry's great escape earlier in the chapter. It seemed a bit too miraculous for my tastes. In retrospect, I like that it was -- at least for the most part -- Harry's power that triumphed under seemly impossible circumstances, but the fact that he wasn't really conscious of what was happening diminishes that somewhat.
Anyway, thanks for the dramatic ending of sorts. And I'll definitely be looking forward to seeing the direction you take this in the final few chapters.

| Oh, thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it, and I'm THRILLED you bought Draco. I was worried about undertaking it, since he's not one of my favorites, but I'm thrilled to hear it came off as believable. I surprised myself with how much I enjoyed writing him as the tale unfolded. I hope you enjoy the ending. |

As I sat down to read the new chapter today, I realized I did not review for the last chapter. I had read it before work and realized I was running late after I finished. I was going to review later and then my 33 year old brain forgot. Nothing new there.
It was a wonderful chapter. I really enjoyed how you got Harry out of his mess while showing his power. I love it when Voldemort is surprised. Believe it or not, I'm hoping that Draco is alive. My roomate and I have a bet on it. This will sound bad, but I think he should live with the knowledge that he has always been wrong about Harry. I'd like to see him eat his words a bit.
Okay...off to read the next chapter. I'll be sure to review directly after so I don't forget again. |

Hey, Awesome fic, you are quickly establishing yourself as one of the greastest, if not the greatest Harry Potter fanfic authors ever. I love your original and witty ideas that would make even JKR proud.
On a side note, i don't know whether or not you realise that, after this one, it's only 85 more reviews until this fic is number one In pheonix song by reviews, (where it so obviously belongs). the funny thing is you're replacing your own fic... which again shows what great a writer you truly are!
Hope you continue to write after this one, as i'm sure i'll enjoy reading them!

| That was amazing and well thought out. Definitly worth waiting for! I just want to make sure I'm getting this right. Harry unwittingly turned the Snitch into a Horcrux, using the piece of Voldemorts soul that's inside him by killing Voldemort. Very clever if im correct. Can't wait to see what happens next. I always loved this part of HP Fanfics.. the aftermath. Cant wait! |
| Saturday 7th October 2006 19:03 | The Seventh Horcrux (Author Response) |
| You're mostly correct. Love shielded Harry's own soul, while the piece of Voldemort that couldn't abide the love was split and expelled into the Snitch. The aftermath is always my favorite part, as well, so I've made it last for several chapters. |

| I think your idea of how Harry kills Voldemort is absolutely brilliant. I've been thinking ever since Harry found out he was a horcrux, how he was going to win the final battle and stay alive. This is pure genious! Great job, quite suspenseful throughout these past two chapters, can't wait to read the rest of the story! I wonder how Hogworts made out?? |

Hopefully Hermione will have a chance to fully explain her plan to save Harry. I get how Voldemort died, but don't understand how Harry's creation of a horcrux wouldn't destroy Harry (like Tom destroyed his own humanity). Did Hermione do a simultaneous spell during the AK, which selectively put Voldemort's soul piece in the snitch?
I've enjoyed Draco in this story; his development has been a natural progression from the reluctant DE at the end of HBP. Please let Hermione's quick thinking (Petrificus Totalis) save his life! |
| Saturday 7th October 2006 18:59 | The Seventh Horcrux (Author Response) |
| Since hatred is used to create a Horcrux, I thought love could be used to create a shield. Love shielded Harry's soul, and the piece of Voldemort was what was split. There will be more explanation in the next chapter. |

Oh my. That's the only coherent thought I can form. And to tell you just how addicted I am to your story.... you know you're addicted when :
My internet has gone down, and I've not had access in about a week. On my ten-minute break between two of my courses, I checked my email, specifically looking for update news. I found it, followed the link, and saved the chapter on my flash drive so that I could read it when I got home. And now I'm back at the U, so that I can review. *sigh* The tale of an addict.
That said, this chapter was wonderful. I can't bear to think that Draco might be dead, I'm hoping Hermione managed to save him in time. And I'm thrilled to see that finally Ol' Snake-Face is dead. WOOT! You rock! |
| Friday 6th October 2006 11:42 | The Seventh Horcrux (Author Response) |
| Hee! I love to hear how addicted you are. That thrills me, and I'm glad you're enjoying it so much. You'll learn more about Draco and the fates of the others in the chapter after next. |

Friday 6th October 2006 06:45 | The Seventh Horcrux |
Hmm... Excellent narrative, certainly.
As for the notion of Harry creating a Horcrux... not sure. Everything I recall reading about that process has seemed to emphasize that it\'s such a great evil that it isn\'t discussed, let alone taught. And maybe I\'m just slow (or impaired or confused from reading the story in bits & pieces over a prolonged time, interspersed with reading other stories -- in a similalr fashion -- interspersed with bits of this one, but I\'m not quite following the logic, if the Snitch was Harry\'s Horcrux, just how having that Horcrux go through the Veil would be helpful -- unless the piece of a soul that was in that Horcrux was (only?) what was left of Tom Riddle\'s soul. Pulling that off would seem to require a remarkable amount of control under extraordinarily stressful conditions with no means of having practiced ahead of time. :-}
Nor do I quite understand how Tom\'s body looked like his original one, given that the body he had been using was the one created in the graveyard near the end of GoF. That said, I don\'t consider this a major issue -- I\'ve grown somewhat accustomed to a certain background level of confusion in my life by now. :-}
Snape appears to have allowed his hatred for James to completely destroy any objectivity he may once have had, at least with respect to Harry: having the chutzpah to refer to the expected reaction from others in the Wizarding community as \"unearned glory\" seems a bit much, even for Snape. Unless, of course, he was merely trying to goad Harry into reacting....
Ginny\'s intervention at the end of the chapter comes across quite believeably.
I hope your move has been going at least as well as may be expected. :-} |
| Friday 6th October 2006 11:41 | The Seventh Horcrux (Author Response) |
| Thanks! Since we really don't have a substantial amount of definitive information about Horcruxes - I took so me liberties. JKR could at any time sink some of this - she certainly has in the past. Harry's Horcrux was made from the piece of Voldemort's soul that was trapped inside him. I thouhgt if a Horcrux was made from hate, than love should be able to be used as a shield. Harry's greatest power is love, so I had him use his love to shield his own soul, while the piece of Voldemort that couldn't tolderate it, was broken off. Harry survives, and the piece of Voldemort is gone. There will be more explanation in the next chapter, but I hope that helps. |

I typically wait to review WIPs until they're done and I reread them - kind of a backwards strategy maybe - but this story is mesmerizing and this chapter is INCREDIBLE! As usual, your final battle chapter more than delivers and is the first one I've read where there's a really plausible way for Harry to overcome Lord Moldyshorts.
I have to admit I disagreed with Harry being a horcrux at first (please, Jo, I'm begging you to not let it be so!!! :rolleyes, but you've really made that premise work and have come up with a plausible way for the horcrux to be taken from Harry without his death. Have I mentioned yet that I love you for NOT killing Harry?
Really, really excellent chapter as well as a first rate story. Great job! |
| Friday 6th October 2006 06:00 | The Seventh Horcrux (Author Response) |
| Hee, thanks! When I first started this story, one of my main goals was to find a way that Harry could survive if he IS a Horcrux. I do think this could work, but I'm so eager to see what Jo's going to do. It's so exciting! I'm thrilled with the response to this one, so thanks for taking the time to let me know! |

I don't know how you do it. What an excellent chapter. I say it again and again, your writing is very good. You captured so many emotions in this chapter. It was really very powerful, but also energetic. Keeping up the pace like that is quite difficult and you pulled it off fantastically! The momentum of the battle with Harry and Snape was great, and then the calm before the storm... that was a really effective tool for giving the reader a break before the real battle between Harry and Voldemort.
There was so much emotion between Harry and Ginny, as well. I kept thinking "Grab the stone! Grab the stone!". How wonderful. You know, the sad part is that I actually feel sorry for Malfoy, both with what happened to The Cow and what Voldemort did to him. Too bad ol' grease-head is still around. Even though this wasn't the typical cliff-hanger, I still can't help but be a little worried about Harry. The love he has for Ginny saved him once, can it save him again?
Great writing. I can't wait for the end. I do hope Hagrid's all right. |

That was a roller coaster
My anticipation for this chapter was at the same point of my anticipation for book7, and it was worth the wait.
The parts I enjoyed the most were when Harry spat the potion on Snape´s face, that was priceless, and you top that with the Harry Potter day, brilliant!. Ohh but that is no enough for the most horrible git in the HP universe, you gave him a bat boogie hex form the master of bat boogie hexes. I loved that you keep him alive, hopefully in Azkaban dress in a colorful t-shirt with " Happy Harry Potter Day" on it, and once a year the Azkaban aurors give him the pleasure of seeing the HP day parade through an enchanted muggle TV. I personally think that Snape is worst than Voldemort in some ways, because Snape had somebody who gave him trust and love and Tom Riddle probably never had that. So giving him this punishment is with out a doubt one of those things that are worst than death.
I loved seeing Draco help Harry in the end, I hope to see that in canon so much, but the best part of it is that the "mudblood" saved him!, the curse is just the thing I believe Voldemort would like to do to Draco.
I will miss your fics so much. I don't think I will ever find another fic as good as yours, but I'm looking forward to read your future work. |

Great battle scene, you always write them really well! I can't tell if you're going to let Hagrid die or not ... that would be very sad!
The was a stroke of genius, Outstanding for that idea. I'm assuming Harry somehow transferred the portion of Voldemort's soul into the snitch and then when it went through the veil he (Voldie) dieD? Let me know if i got it wrong through - oh my gosh, i'm still blown away by the battle!
Even though i don't think Harry is a Horcrux, you made it very believable, and wrapped the battle up very nicely. well done! |
| Thursday 5th October 2006 05:14 | The Seventh Horcrux (Author Response) |
| You've basically got it right. Harry's own soul was held together with love while the piece of Voldemort's soul was expelled and ended up in the Snitch. Voldemort died, Snitch went through the Veil - all done! hee. |

If imitation is the most sincere form of flattery- all I want to do is repeat Antosha's comment. It was perfect!
"Wow. Quite a climax!
So... let me see if I have this right: Harry cast a Killing Curse on Voldy, which tore Harry's soul--or in this case tore free the bit of Voldemort in Harry, and which he then placed in the Snitch; when the Snitch went through the Veil, the last bit of Voldemort went with it, killing the old codger... Is that right?
In any case... WHOOHOO! " |

I can't stand Draco! Unless that is you have figured out a way for someone to live after having...how did you put it..."his entrails piled in front of him"!!! That one is really something terrible I can see Voldemort doing!

Okay, this is absolutely magnificent. What more could you ask for...Harry vomiting on Draco and Snape being hit with the Bay Bogey Hex - perfect examples of poetic justice. I can see the movie version in my head right now.
I think Harry creating a Horcrux with the death of Voldemort is quite plausible. Since I am one who is rooting for Harry's ultimate survival and am convinced that Snape is an evil git (he killed Dumbledore!!how more rotten can you get?), I was cheering and smiling and re-reading.
I know Harry is not out of the woods, Hagrid is in jeapordy and Hogwarts has been attacked.....can't wait for the next chapter.

| Heh, I'm glad you liked Draco and Snape getting some due payback, lol. I liked that idea, too. I haven't completely given up on Snape in canon, there's a part of me that likes the idea that he's somehow helping, but I do prefer the shock value of him being really bad. I like the idea of Harry being right and DD being wrong in the end. |

Wow. Quite a climax!
So... let me see if I have this right: Harry cast a Killing Curse on Voldy, which tore Harry's soul--or in this case tore free the bit of Voldemort in Harry, and which he then placed in the Snitch; when the Snitch went through the Veil, the last bit of Voldemort went with it, killing the old codger... Is that right?
In any case... WHOOHOO! |

That was such a nail-biter! I had to go back and reread the whole snitch part a couple of times because I wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything.
So much to say -
First and foremost, go Harry! Go Harry! I absolutely loved his little fight with Snape, and his comment to Snape after he killed Tom had me rolling laughing. “There’s going to be celebrating and victory speeches, and they’ll probably even name a holiday after me,” he gasped, slurring his words. “I’m certain I’ll hate all of it, but there’s one thing that it’ll make it all worthwhile – and that’s knowing that you’re going to hate it more.” Snicker! Snape has always insinuated that Harry was so arrogant, and it's so fitting that he channelled his dad like that. Too funny! I also truly enjoyed how his raw magical power made the room start to shake. Wow!
Draco - I never thought I'd ever feel sorry for the little ferret, but I did in this chapter. At least he did the right thing in the end, even if it was for purely selfish reasons. He's just so . . . Slytherin.
Ginny - Harry's true love and protector. I love that she got Snape with the Bat-Bogey Hex. What a spitfire! That was almost as great as Harry's speech. And then wrapping herself around Harry like a bandage. She's sucha little Molly.
That was an amazing chapter! I'm interested to see the fall-out at Hogwarts and how they bring Harry back around. |

Woohoo!!! Ding dong the 's gone, the 's gone, the 's gone! Ding dong the evil monster's gone!
OH This chapter made me happy, scared, excited, nervous for the future. Even after the final battle with Voldemort, you leave us with a cliff hanger!What is to become of Harry? Of Draco? Of Hagrid and Hogwarts? Of the Weasleys? Of Ron? Of HARRY! He deserves a happily ever after. As does Draco. This chapter let him grow on me, and I both respect and like the dude.
I also really liked the way you got the Horcrux out of Harry....with a golden snitch! Gotta love it! Though, if Harry didn't even know the purpose of holding the Snitch with his wand, how could he specify which part of his soul went into the snitch? Did it automatically take the part that was least like him? I read in other review responses that you will have answers for us in the next few chapters, so I will try to contain my curiosity until the next update.
Oh, And the surges in power every time he thinks of a loved one! THAT certainly fits in with canon! Loved the execution and that the afterlife seemed to be rooting Harry on. The veil didn't glow bright when Harry got hurt, right?
Can't wait for the next installment! And thank you, by the way, for the super-quick, regular updates, even through a move. THank you! |

Brilliant as ever.
I really like that idea of creating his own horcrux with the one that was inside him, but I'm still not sure that Harry could ever do a killing curse properly, although emotion being his strong suit maybe as you have put it in the heat of battle - but only if Ron/Hermione/Ginny was in absolute mortal peril.
Update again soon. |
| Wednesday 4th October 2006 18:52 | The Seventh Horcrux (Author Response) |
| Also remember that just because he couldn't do a Cruciatus doesn't mean he could perform a Killing Curse. The Cruciatus needs hte desire to cause intense pain - which isn't Harry - but he does want to kill Voldemort. I suppose we'll all just have to wait and see for real. |

Wonderful! Wonderful story! I can't wait to read the rest. You have true talent and a great imagination.
Yes, I think it could work...I have to admit I have wondered what exactly would be the ending of the real Harry Potter books and I was very upset to think he might actually have to die in order to succeed.
Thanks for sharing your story and hurry with the next part.

OH MY GOD! Brilliant, simply brilliant. Surely the best final fight between Harry and Voldemort that I have ever read, and I have read A LOT.
I just dont know how to put how I'm feeling into words. I checked my email at school during break, and saw the notification that the new chapter was up, and have been anticipating the chance to read it for hours now.
Wow... I'm still in total shock... The war is over... well, not the entire war, but the prophecy is fulfulled at last!
The way you portrayed Draco was perfect, his reaction to Pansy's death and his expression when he found out about the Horcruxes... And the way you made Harry dive in front of Ron to save him from the killing curse... THAT was awesome...
Lol I am kind of disappointed that Snape is still alive though... hehe... but I would much rather have Snape alive than Voldemort...
I seriously think that this story will be better than JK's 7th book... I mean, everything is perfectly thought out and all of the facts are straight and your writing is superb...
I'm still smiling right now and I probably wont stop for a long time... =D |

I like the ode to the "Curse of the Damned", with those Voldemort hurt in the past playing a part in his demise. I wish I could think of words to say how much I loved this chapter, but I can't.

What do I think? Utterly brilliant! *chants* She has done it again! Once again, I couldn't read this chapter fast enough. The sheer power that Harry exhibited in this chapter was such a thrill to read about! The use of the aquarmarine stones in helping Harry out was ingenious! I loved how reality and understanding finding hit Draco. Hermione was quick-minded in using that body bind to save Draco. The whole final battle between Harry and Voldemort was perfectly choregraphed. One could just see it playing out in our minds. Hermione's plan was absolutely brilliant! Having Harry create his own Horcrux and having it go into the Veil--I am still flabbergasted. Now we will have to wait to see what will be happening with the Draught of the Living Death. *nervously drums fingers on table*
Hope the family is getting adjusted to the move. |

It's a great idea, though for it to work the timing is a bit too tight. It seems to me that the Snitch has to go through the Veil before the AK hits Voldemort - at least, that's what JK implied in HBP. Dumbledore says that the last bit of Voldy's soul to be destroyed has to be the one in his body, or else that bit would live on without a body. At the same time, can the Snitch become a Horcrux *before* the curse hits Voldemort? Is it the act of saying the AK words that creates it, or the actual result? My bet would be that it's the actual result, b/c otherwise anyone could create Horcruxes left and right. But since we don't really know the exact details of Horcrux creation (maybe even JK hasn't thought about them to split-second detail), I'm quite willing to accept that your idea would work. It's nice, anyway, from many other points of view. I like the symbolism of the Snitch as the vessel to saving Harry's life (or at least his soul).
My idea, when I thought of Harry being a Horcrux, was that a Dementor would somehow come into play, and kiss the Horcrux out of Harry. No idea exactly how. The other vague possibility is that the blood connection between Harry and Voldy will play a role. We still don't know why Dumbledore smiled at the end of GoF. From you story, I take it you don't plan on going in that direction.
Anyhow, I liked the main plot developments in your story. Stylistically speaking, I think it flows better than your previous work, but you still tend to repeat words (not in this episode, though). I also appreciate that you update often, and that you see things through and finish your series. Not sure how many more episodes you have planned, but since it looks like it's about done, and since I don't review often, I thought I'd take the time now to let you know that I enjoy your work. |
| Wednesday 4th October 2006 18:05 | The Seventh Horcrux (Author Response) |
| You bring up excellent points, and I'll be the first to admit that I dont' know all the answers. Hee, until JKR gives them to us, we can be a bit creative. I think Voldemort has to be destroyed last so that he doesn't turn into vapor again. Even if that happened though, I think immediately destroying the last Horcrux wouldn't leave him a soul to reattach to. If Harry killed him with one still missing, then he would know right where to go to find it while Harry didn't, but this way, the last piece disappeared almost simultaneously. That was my logic, anyway. I'm glad you enjoyed it and appreciate your taking the time to let me know. |

Love the idea! Geez, the winning snitch ends up being what ultimately killed Voldemort. I love it! And Snape, geez, what a poofter. Good idea to keep him alive to celebrate Harry's Holiday! Haha!
I'm guessing that Harry throwing up was imporant to expell the Draught. As always, can't wait for the next!! |

I thought it was a very creative idea that you had with the horcrux. That makes sense. Very ingenius of you.

| That was amazing! I absolutly loved it! So how much more to this story? And Draco really surprised me. I mean, I think he is actually growing up. And stupid Snape. Harry just defeated Voldemort, and he thinks he can kill Harry. Even if he is weak at the moment, Snape could never hurt Harry by killing him. And I like the idea of the Veil. With the mutterings belonging to the people dying in there, and only the powerful can hear it. And the insane. That is only why Snape can hear it though. He's insane. -l0l- And the stone. I knew something like that would happen. Very good. I can't wait to see what is happening at Hogwarts. I hope it isn't to bad off. The Aurors better be there. If not, well then... They have me to talk to. -l0l- I know I'm just rambling on, but I have two more things to say. Voldemort, when he died, I like how you had him turn into 'Tom Riddle'. And I just have to say, poor Draco. Losing Pansy. Be he will live. Once again, exilent work. (I spelled that wrong. I know) |
| Wednesday 4th October 2006 17:56 | The Seventh Horcrux (Author Response) |

*is speechless*
Oh wow! I had to read the battle at the end there twice. The first time I was speeding along (while keeping an eye on the scroll bar on the side, wondering if you were going to leave us mid-battle - which, by the way, I thank you for not doing .).
I think the first word that came to mind was "Wow!" There were many things I loved about this chapter. I think my favourite has to be Harry's reply to Snape at the end.
“There’s going to be celebrating and victory speeches, and they’ll probably even name a holiday after me,” he gasped, slurring his words. “I’m certain I’ll hate all of it, but there’s one thing that it’ll make it all worthwhile – and that’s knowing that you’re going to hate it more.”
Now that will be a good form of justice! It also fitted well into character - or both characters, I should say.
Then I have to add that I liked that you used the snitch as the Horcrux. It was just fitting. Especially with Harry catching it and Ginny throwing it. A nice use of their Quidditch skills.
As to your question, I think it is a feasible solution. If creating a Horcrux with the murder of Voldemort could be achieved, only splitting the part of Voldemort that was in Harry away and sealing it in the Horcrux, then yes, I think it could definitely work. As a serious canon debate goes though, we would have to know more about the details of making a Horcrux, and know if one actually has control over what part of the soul (if the soul really does have parts) is sealed away. But that is a canon debate, and this is fanfiction. I am just tying to answer your question (without writing an essay). I think it is a good idea though, and didn't leave me wondering how you could have figured it out. It was definitely logical.
Now... to find out what has happened to Harry. Because I sure hope he didn't go through all that and come so close to surviving, to be permanently affected by the Draught of Living Death. That would just be terrible!
*Impatiently awaiting the next installment.* |
| Wednesday 4th October 2006 17:51 | The Seventh Horcrux (Author Response) |
Thanks! Yes, I'm sure canon debate can poke some holes, but since we dont' have a lot of concrete facts on Horcruxes, I think I can fill the leaks
Next chapter offers more explanation. I'm glad you liked the . I can't imagine a more appropriate Horcrux for Harry. |

Wednesday 4th October 2006 14:06 | The Seventh Horcrux |
WOW! Interesting idea with the removal of the horcrux. Not quite sure how the mechanics of everything works, but the end result makes sense.
Loved how he started throwing names with each curse. Revenge is sweet! And it was really interesting how the Veil started getting brighter and louder the more of an "upper hand" Harry managed to get.
Will Draco live? Not that I really care for the git... but that's a pretty ugly way to go. We got to see the Bat-Bogey, but I would have loved to see Voldemort get that too...
I've seen some discussions that mentioned Snape was really behind it all, and that he'd confront Harry after Voldemort was taken care of... You had me going for a minute... but only for a minute. I love that Harry knows that keeping Snape alive to deal with the adoration is true punishment!
So now, we just need to have Hogwarts saved, Harry to wake up, and the world to celebrate, right? Can't wait for the next chapter now! |

I want to scream. No, scratch that, I want to jump and yell and laugh and have a panic attack all at the same time, but you know why I can't do that? Because I'm at school. And because I'm at school, I can't curse and worship you out loud through the computer screen for putting us readers through all that torment!!
First you suck all the hope of Harry surviving out of us like a dementor, then you just shove it all back in there and relieve us of the worry until you give us a concluding line that really just makes us wonder- is he just tired, or is he going to fall into an eternal sleep. And now you redeem Draco (Hoozah!!) only to most likely kill him off.
But I am done assuming when it comes to you, dearie. We think one thing and then you go ahead and write a chapter so amazingly good it made all the theories and plots and worry and anxiety and panicking of the last 28 chapters worth it! Seriously. Your Harry is a Horcrux theory was just amazing, and honest to Merlin I think we would all be very hard pressed to find a fanfic writer that can make the idea as plausible as you just did. I'd say not even Jo could be that good, but that is pure blasphemy, and a total lie. Jo is after all our mentor and fiction-writing God.
Characterization wise you did an amazing job, especially for a fic this AU. You kept them true to form and you deserve a standing ovation. Your Harry was, well, Harry. Absolutely wonderful. And Ginny is a Prewett/Weasley/best part of her whole family amazing. And Hermione really is a perfect prefect , in the best way possible. And Ron... Ron. Ron is one hell of a Weasley. I think I'd slap him if he still felt overshadowed by his brothers after that ordeal, though he did have that lapse where Harry saved him, but hey who wouldn't freeze? And Draco is also kept in character, which is what I loved, and which is what makes his redemption so believable; you didn't turn him into a ridiculous spin off that realises the error of Voldemort's ways within 5 seconds flat. You kept up that stubborness and pride, and you really made him live up to his Slytherin identity.
Oh and the way Voldemort died? How you had his personas melt away and had him revert back to Tom Riddle is the way it should be done.
Bravo, Melinda. I really don't know how else to say it. Truly amazing.

Amazing chapter, I saw it was coming to the end and I thought you were going to end on a horrible cliffy. I think the idea of Harry being a Horcrux and then making a Horcrux so he doesn't have to die being a brilliant idea. Keep up the wonderful work, I hope there are a few more chapters and if not then I hope you get started on your next project soon!

| Well, there's a little more to it than that, but don't worry - full explanations should come in the next chapter - a bit of exposition anyway. There are still 5 chapters to go - I like my aftermath stuff. |

thats about all i can say for that
"There’s going to be celebrating and victory speeches, and they’ll probably even name a holiday after me,” he gasped, slurring his words. “I’m certain I’ll hate all of it, but there’s one thing that it’ll make it all worthwhile – and that’s knowing that you’re going to hate it more.”
that has got to be my favorite line ever
Amazing chapter!...the only bad thing about this is that the story is just about over |

| Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed it, and I think Snape will be beside himself having to hear everyone praise Harry's name forever more, lol. There are still five chapters left - I like my aftermaths, lol. |
