Dear Friends.

I was depressed, and finally determined to read this fic again. It is working wonders for me.

I'm still feeling profound disappointment re: JKR. All of those clues about AD's betrayal, and the development of Hermione's character. She appeared to try to bring the story current in her last book. But, in my opinion, she failed. I've considered the chance that I'm turning 60 this year, and she wrote for the 10-13 year old. But, I'm still not happy.

Thanks for writing stories that show 1/2 a brain.

Best wishes.

love the end note form

currently sitting on bed, in pitch black, reading the literary brilliance of Bob & Alyx...its midnight of course... =P

incidentally...*tosses a box of donuts in between Bob & Alyx*

wait till they finish, then continue reading =D

My name is aburey and on behalf of jed <my husband> and myself I would like to say this is great. He's a trucker and I'm reading it to him from home over the phone and its great.
thanks

i just want to say that i love your excuse note at the botom of chap 3....it's fantastic
lol
luv jen

yes i love it very much

If only I could use that Excuse note!!!! The look on my professors face would be priceless! I could use one for the test I have in 5 1/2 hours.........

Love how this is developing. OK, so I'm really far behind on this story. Too bad. At least this way I don't have to wait for updates before I can read more...

Oh, and that Fan Fiction Excuse note is absolutely brilliant, by the way!

You know, I actually printed out the fanfiction excuse note and filled it out. I gave it to my dad, and he laughed like crazy. He then asked to read your guys' stories, and now he loves them as much as I do.

oh, at the beginning of the chapter you have cindy and emma talking about "harry" before she knew his real name.

Otherwise very good.

Here's another fine chapter you've got me into, Stanley... I'm very grateful.

Cindy works.

Outstanding chapter. I really love Luna, she is so refreshing and such a doll. I am so glad Harry is strong and taking charge of his life. I really like this story.

Nice. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for another great update. The notebooks between Harry and Hermione are interesting. I can't wait to see what the journal does with the blood in the pentagram. It's good to finally read a story where Sirius gets a good break even if it's just for awhile. OC's have this bad tendancy of meeting squishy ends.

BTW I attached some Donuts via HTML for Bob maybe the HTML won't be removed and Bob will get his sugar free donuts.

don't mind me asking but whats the deal with DONUTS !!

Why would Scrimgeour try to take over Hogwarts? Fudge's reason was the paranoia instilled by the presence of Dumbledore. But since McGonagall doesn't have anywhere near the political clout why would the ministry work so hard at controlling a school? Plus Scrimgeour didn't seem to be really the pureblood bigot type.

And about science: Science does not deny magic, actually science does not deny anything. Science merely explain any observed phenomenon to the outmost of our present knowledge. So for example when science says that the closest distance between two points is the straight line, it merely states what has been observed. If something that denies that statement were to be observed then the science involved would have to be corrected. :)

And thanks for the much reduced amount of italics, my eyes thank you.

haha. story is brilliant. p.s. i love the author notes. they are as ingenious as your stories! keep it up. can't wait to read the next chapter.

Chapter all gone? Have to return to normal college life? BORING!

Great chapter guys, I can't wait for the next one. Maybe I'll be able to shell through that one in one go and not have it punctuated by lab reports.

Happy writing!

Although this is a good story with a very unusual execution and gets Harry away from Hogwarts (and keeps him away, a terrible inconsistency in 'leaving Hogwarts' stories) the best part is easily the Fan Fiction Excuse Note. I love it, I've saved it to my computer, and I'm considering printing it out and hanging it on my door. It's awesome.
