Yeah! More chappies in the most excelent story! It's nice to see Harry finally back at Hogwarts and starting to reconnect with Hermione (and likely Ginny, since you've stated this is a H/G fic).

However, it's saddening to hear that updates will be sporadic. I do understand the whole "lets see how we kill Voldie this time" problem, however. Personally, I'd be just as happy to have Harry take care of the dork lord sooner rather than later, and then have fun ensue with him, the Xmen, and Ginny (and mebbe Hermione or Luna) in the larger Marvel universe.

Anyway, have fun (Mutant) Storming the castle!

This IS your story. I am just gratful that you share your tremendous skill and imagination with us, your readers.
Why not make offing Voldy a one or two chapter aside and carry on with the mutant issues and Harry's decisions. Tom is not the be all, end all of the Wizarding world.
Again, Thank you for writing. Your stories are wonderful to read.

Man, this is a really well thought out story.... I have read quite a few stories in the last few years (last I checked, my Delicious bookmarks of fanfics hit nearly 650 fully completed ones and my story alerts are somewhere around 500 - all uncompleted). I'm continuously impressed with the level of detail incorporated in the story. Also, there are so few Xmen/HP crossovers that are nonslash that are worth reading. I'm sure the slashy ones are good, but slash makes my stomach turn, so I don't read it. I really hope you continue this story in the direction it is going. I'm really interested in how it goes. Although, I would like to see Harry having some knowhow on programming computers and stuff. He likes mathy things? Why not give him skills in computer programming? It would show the wizards how truly dire the situation is, and I think the Harry persona you are developing would like having those skills too.

I'm sorry to read that you've lost some interest in this story. For me it's the best cross over that I've read. I understand your issues with Voldemort, I feel the same, having read almost every way possible of getting rid of him. Expect jelly donuts, and I'm sure that's out there somewhere.

This story is so much more about the relationships between the wizard world, and the mutant world, ok toss in us muggles too. Hopefully your muse won't run away completely.

By the way fantasic chapter, for the reason stated above. :) Looking forward to the next chapter.

Haha, a refund:) Could I possibly get a refund on my internet connection for checking for updates everyday;-)

On a more serious note, while I regret your waning interest in this story, I completely understand. You've already killed the arse a few times, I can only imagine how much of a bother he has become.

I'm half expecting you to make him break his neck while falling own the stairs and have Harry take on Wizarding Britain to bring it out of its archaic mindset.

Either way, I'll keep checking for updates, hoping that you have graced us with another chapter, no matter what story it will be for.

Thank God! I am so sick of fan fiction revolving around vVldemort all of the time. Wizards Fall and the Marriage Law fics are exactly the thing that the Harry Potter fan-base should be reading in this post DH Era, rather than begging for new Voldemort-death-centered fics to make up for the crap that Rowling shoved down our throats for the last two books. Good Show, Keep writing the bunnies, and deal with the rest when you feel like it!

Great Chapter, love it. As for the Voldemort issue I can agree, I always wanted to see a story that treated Voldemort as I always saw him, as mealy a Symptom of a Disease where the Disease that Harry Really needs to defeat, is the current wizarding world attitudes. To many stories end with Voldemort dieing and the wizarding world going back to business as normal, with all there corrupt and prejudice ways staying the same, so your special note now has me even more interested in this story. PPMS!

whatever the schedule, whatever the topic,I have not as yet,in 5 years of reading your works multiple times, NOT been enriched, entertained, instructed and amused. With that track record, whether you are squishing Voldemort into gooey black paste, or writing historical romance novels with magic twists, or scholarly treatises on the methods and incantations necessary to include a portion of the soul, no horcrux jokes please, into a portrait - I will read them.

thanks for sharing

Fabulous story.

Now... take the time to trust yourself as well as listen to the people who enjoy your stories: not caring about Tom anymore? Have him become a minion of an X-Men villian. I always liked Apocolypse... you know, an actual immortal badguy.

Keep writing and we will keep reading.

i'd love to see more mutants popping up at Hogwarts. Have some first years start to experience a few things that aren't related to magic. Great story though. I'm glad that you have decided to continiue it

Ezra'eil posted a comment on Saturday 18th April 2009 10:38pm

Hmmm.... Running out of ways to kill Voldemrot... You could always have them prepare for the 'final battle' and then have him trip over something and have his head bashed in.... Anyway, if you want a new storyline to write, take a look at: A second Chance at Life, and Changes in a Time of War, by Miranda Flairgold...

Hello, loving the story, but there seems to be a chapter missing from between Chapter 4 and the current Chapter 5.

Hey,

Great chapter. It just came to me after reading your notes. Why not have Voldemort and harry do a unlikely alliance (unwanted but necessary) against say an enemy of the xmen or some other foe. Some one who's goal is the extinction of the Wizarding world, the muggles or the mutants. Just a thought, since you're tired with old Voldy.

Neo.

All I have to say is that I love the story, especially the direction it took with this chapter. I'd say ignore Voldie, but you're right, it's not post Voldie, and that's too big a plot hole to ignore. But why must the focus be on him? I like the interaction between the people and seeing how Muggle & Wizard tech will combine. That's what I'm interested in seeing more of, I don't really give a crap how Voldie is dealt with. He's there, he's a necessary evil for you to stay with your story line, but can't he just be the footnote you've made him so far?

Jimmy posted a comment on Saturday 18th April 2009 9:35pm

nice to see the story back. here's an idea, get wolverine to chop off voldemort's nuts and head (big/little doesn't matter :D) and let them then deal with magneto. problem solved :D

panter posted a comment on Saturday 18th April 2009 9:25pm

i agree with your comments about Voldemort in your special notes.
it isnt the danger of voldemort that is the biggest danger but the sociaty itself.
They did create the danger by not helping the people who were abandend and mistreted.
look at how the ministery treets people diffrent then each other.
it reminds me of the 60's in the USA. Black versus White for there rights.
I would say the same needs to happen in the Wizzard World and a huge wakeup call. no progress is defall.

But the same is technology. If you ignore the progres of technology you stay in the past.
sometimes that isn't a bad idea. Like using no creditcards so that you don't get many debts.
but if you don't use computers with internet you lose even money by not using it. Think of all the cheap product you can buy. cheaper traveltickes, beter info about product etc.

good luck with writing the next chapter.

ps i agree. all the story about voldemort as the big bad guy is borring. If sociaty does noting such events may happen. look at nazie Germany (1939) Hitler can to power because the good guys did nothing and then it was to late to do someting.

Omeganian posted a comment on Saturday 18th April 2009 9:16pm

Nice. I hope to see more. And if you are running out of ways to kill Voldy, you can use mine. I think the principle is not used that much.

pav posted a comment on Saturday 18th April 2009 8:46pm

Thank you,Bob.One more well written chapter.A pleasure to read.
Considering your note.With respect and no offense intended i am afraid you limit your plotline choice by making your Voldie an all powerful wannabe dictator.According to canon he is a sociopathic loser who denies himself a chance to make a brilliant career and wastes his life among the criminal underground.His knowledge of the wizarding world thus is severely limited.I am sorry,a mighty dark lord who is ignorant of the basic prophecy retrieving procedure.No way.The only reason of his invincibility was JKR playing for the dark side.
So,maybe just take it easy and downgrade the conflict from the Sunset/Sunrise level.Wizarding Britain,even according to your plotline,is a third world country,something like Sudan.For a brilliant writer like you it is not that difficult to awe us,loyal readers,one more time.
Good luck and inspiration.

I agree. It's hard to keep up inventing new things and demises for Voldy. But I'll love to see more fics inline with Wizards Fall. There's much to tell about the world/universe after the fall of the last dark lord. If you go there, I'll be right behind you reading everything up.
Thanks for the great stories all around.

jilumasam posted a comment on Saturday 18th April 2009 6:30pm

That's actually a good point about Voldy. He certainly does make it hard to wrote a good story.

Your writing is so good I'll follow the story irrespective of where you take it.

Liz :)
