Wow, that was long, twisty, geographically diverse and full of sneakiness! I love it! Thanks for the update, and I hope that RL allows you to post again soon.

Hey you two, another marvelous chapter for us to chew on. I found your treatment of the honeymooners quite refreshing and interesting as well. Can't wait to see Ginny's revenge on the twins. The Library of Alexander and Harry helping save it thereby swaying much of the Middle East Wizarding wold to Britains Cause was a stroke of genius. Well done. Lots of fast paced action here to keep things moving, so I quite enjoyed it. Thanks, as always for your efforts to entertain us.

Wonderful chapter Bob & Alyx!
Susan getting pregnant will definately reduce her involvement in the war and helping Harry but I guess something will have to be done to accomodate her and not make her feel left out... I can just imagine the tantrums and hormonal behaviour she might display when and if she might be told to stay out of the main war effort... unless by some twist in the fic, she has a miscarriage, which is undesirable but there is definately a minute possibility.
I hope Luna waits until after the war.. I enjoyed the description of Draco quite a bit when Luna seemed fixated on a baby...
Good thing overall that the medallions(sp?) showed their usefulness...
The foray into religion had me concerned for a bit but you handled it nearly perfectly... Considering that Harry has no knowledge and/or background with religion, it will be interesting to see what effect and influence Hermione has on him and whether he will yield to her efforts or not...
And ofcourse, the honeymoon scenes were enjoyable though I doubt there was much need for the warning about sex scenes you gave when posting the chapter.
Can't really forget the Millicent/McG scene... had me ROFL...
Thanks for posting the chapter. I hope Alyx can cope with her added duties to her satisfaction and can concentrate on the fic whenever she possibly can.
Take care!

SUSAN'S PREGNANT!!! HAHAHA!!! BRILLIANT! yes, um, anyway (recovers dignity). Excellent chapter, absolutely fantastical, ruddy brilliant, etc, etc, do you really want me to carry on?
Anyhow...
I particularly liked the scene in the library. Are the members of Blood Jihab going to resurface anytime, likewise with Rupert Cinan, or were they just little, inconsequential sub-plots for Harry's busy life while he's on honeymoon? (that was one long sentence...)
I can't wait for Ginny's confrontation with Fred and George- that was one brilliant idea. Talking of confrontations, are you going to write a scene for the two Black Sisters (Andromeda and Narcissa)?

another one up, another one down.
Excellent chapter, as usual I can find nothing to complain about (You guy are making it tough for me to keep my Intimidating critic status). I must say that I especally liked the culture blending dipected in the middle east. The customs are still there, but they are not harshly inforced, they are the guidelines that laws are intended to be.
I am eagerly awaiting your next chapter, Please keep up the excellent work!

Like it lots! Although Moody could add alot to the story, I'm glad atleast someone there gets to be what they want-Moody getting some peace. Poor Harry wants the same thing mostly but he never does get it...

Well another great chapter from the both of you. You set up Terry and Susan from the last chapter very well, I know that something was going to happen but not Susan having a baby, who is next. I bet that is going to be relevent in the comming chapter. Thanks for writing.

Loved the chapter, well worth the wait. I do like how much trouble Harry can find just going to the library. Scott

Well that was a nice, strong chapter!
Hmmmm, was that bit of Luna at the end one of her quirks (I think so) or her being unable to be herself?
Eep. Blood Jihad? Is that gonna be a big part? Or just a minor thing?
Love the house elves!
keep it up!

Excellent chapter. I liked the honeymoon scenes and thought that the amount of spousal loving portrayed was wonderful for a fairly no-puddles story. More and I would have had to take a clean-up break, less and well...why less anyway?
I loved the library scene and Harry discovering a plot that ended up swaying the middle east from Voldemort. It could have great reprocussions on Voldy's recruitment in a quarter of the world, if the leaders in that area make their stance clear.
I liked that there was a confrontation in Paris, but why didn't Terry just accio Susan's wand rather than just leave her without protection? I guess that it was just the heat of his first battle.
Great job, Bob and Alyx. Funny, Snape didn't die in this intro? Are you changing your tune, or did Barney forget the KY? Wow, bad way to die. Please, if you ever want me gone, just put a bullet in my head. I could not handle the alternatives.
Thank you for writing.

Lovely work, and worth the wait. It was good to see Terry get to do something (he's chronically underused in fics). Neville was right, Draco is toast. Hopefully the more focused Luna will hold off on getting pregnant until things are less dangerous, but if there's anybody that can control when to get pregnant, it's her. The Library of Alexandria sequence was wonderful. Why didn't Harry's medallion whisk him to Haven when his arm was shattered, though? Love Millicent as the gyrfalcon; that's a brilliant idea.
Hope you both are doing better.

Simply put Harry's injury wasn't sufficient enough to trigger the medallion.

Moody! Nice to see him again. Even nicer to see him honestly wanting to retire. Him giving AD a hidey-hole while he heals yet not wanting to get involved makes sense.
*blink* Do you two have something against someone named Amy?
Despite being handicapped by an impotency curse, he had risen to the challenge
*cough/choke* Snerk!
"You were the one dive bombing me two days ago out near the greenhouses!"
*snicker*
One interesting happening in the Library. Susan and Terry's attack turned out about as well as can be expected. I'm wondering how much useful info they'll be able to pry out of the bad guys.
Huh. Does SUSAN know she's pregnant?
Nice chap. Looking forward to the next.
