Ok...i was bored and looked on fanfiction and found your DA and SC stories and absolutely loved them. I was extrodinarily happy when I realized you had more stories on a different website. You guys are two of the best writers that I have ever read. The only complaint I have is that you completely ruined J.K. Rowlings books for me! Make sure you keep writing, your stories are amazing (and your disclaimers are hilarious).

I love your story guys, absolutly brilliant:) Keep up the exellent work and grace us with a update soon:)

I kind of like this whole war thing, it's well written and interesting the whole way through... The only thing I realy can't seem to understand is the way you paint hermione and ginny, they have a temper and a ego I haven't seen for a looooong time, if ever, in a character that is a good guy that the reader is suppose to like.... Strange.... I also think that you were on the edge with the pranking from the twins, I know it's fun to play with them, and they do make the story for fun. But you nearly let them get out of hand:) Though the last chapters have reversev that a little:)

I feel that it may be important to tell you that I'm sorry for my poor english, I haven't had english in school for nearly 5 years, and when you live in Norway it's not so easy to keep your second languages in shape....:/

Well, once again, thank you very much for writting such a fantastic story, it's truly brilliant:)

Best regards
Vidar (my name, hehe)

ps. please, a comback from a nice Ron would make this story the best ever;)

Yet again, a well written chapteer. I salute you.
I thoough thte diplomaic mission was a bad idea, but I've never understood the convolutd logic of the dark side...erm, I mean, diplomacy. I believe Kahn Noonien Singh, stated it best. "Diplomacy is warfare, concealed."
Ginny handled herself well in combat, as to be expected from a member of the brotherhood, especially given her temperment.
I hate the waiting. Having been a soldier for a substantial portion of my life, I know full well, that it's the waiting that drives soldiers mad. Although it sounds cruel, let us hope the security team is in fact, dead, and not being reprogrammed into weapons against Haven.(See Dudley Dursley.)
Amhar's death was an ignoble one, entirely suiting the man. Yes, it's a shame Harry didn't get to slice and dice him with his trusty lightsaber...erm, I mean reducto his in-bred arse through a stone wall, but as Richard Longshanks said: "Just as good."
As always, I eagerly await the next chapter of 'Sunrise'. Alorkin

You guys never cease to amaze me.

And who said the pace was slow?! Because it's absolutely perfect! There ARE so many plot lines (that's part of what makes this story as completely wonderful as it is) and you both have done a incredible job of managing them all.

I can't wait to see how Neville is (even though you've told us that he's okay) because the G/N in this story is so adorable. (Along with all the other ships, of course. They're all brilliantly written.)

I'm glad that Amhar is dead. He deserved it. ;)

And I'm definitely looking forward to the new Quidditch team.

Great job! I adore this story, and definitely don't want to wait to see where you take this when you update it next.

Hi Folks,

usually I'm not to picky about anachronisms, since you do such a good job in most respects. I did gripe that at the time this story is supposed to have happen the Blackwatch wasn't just a Battalion in the 3rd Scots...the reorg of th Brit Army hadn't happened yet!

But this one is MUCH worse. Unless you claim the Bastille is hiddn under a gianormous "Notice Me Not Charm", then your use of it is a very bad boo-boo since it was destroyed not long after the French Revolution.

Place de la Bastille
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Arrondissement IVe, XIe, XIIe
Quarter Arsenal . Roquette . Quinze-Vingts .
Length 215 m
Width 150 m (average)
Creation 27th June 1792
Denomination

"The Place de la Bastille (48 °51′12″N, 2 °22′9″E) is a square in Paris, where the Bastille prison stood until it was stormed and subsequently torn down between July 14, 1789 and July 14, 1790 during the French Revolution; no vestige of it remains."

As the square is used for concerts and other large gatherings, claiming the prison still stand in the middle of it, under some invisibility charm, is a REAL streach.

Perhaps you should clarify that the meetings of the shadow French Government are under the FORMER SITE of the Bastille, in basements and cellars which survived the leveling of the above ground portion?

Sorry to be a pain about this but the historical error is just TOO noticable for anyone who know anything about Paris.

Thankyou for the Christmas present.

I thought you would have Ambar try to duel with Neville when he got to France, and the DST arrange it so it looks like two British subjects having a personal quarrel.

Still an excellent chapter.

The Avalonian Council sounds like a stage for some interesting politicing to go on. I can see the Magical French people being claimed by surrounding magical governments once the Magical French Govt is disenfranchised by the council. Of course its temporary due to the war with Voldemort.

Income taxes were a temporary measure to pay for a war in the 19th century in Britain. Temporary can be quite permanent at times.

I bet the assemble it yourself disclaimer kit didn't come with batteries included.

Nice chapter as always. Can't wait to read the next chapter.

May I be so bold and request for Harry, that he takes out the complete Shadow Council by himself?
Something like Askaban or the like? *grins*

Haha its nice to see the French get their due even if it is in a fictional story written by a madman and his wife.

Are we going to find out how someone got the better of Neville or are we just left to make up random guesses involving revolvers Sake and a pig? ^.-

BOB don't let Alyx brow beat you into abandoning all things shiny and with a lot of buttons!!!! "WE Who have affinity for all things Nuclear and with buttons bow to none" HA!!!

Seriously!! great chappie. So now things are stirring into action. Can't wait to see the French to have their A**es handed to them in a plater in the Avalonian Council.

One gripe is giny's temper.. She sounds too much like Molly for my taste. may be we could see some behaviour modification? Like the scene in Spiritus Crystalus where she suspects Harry for assigning her a guard and realizes her mistake a wee bit late( i always thought harry was very forgiving there)... i was hoping to see something like it.

You fixed upp hermione alright. But ginny? i am still waiting.

Awesome Chapter! Screw the French I hope you really give it to them hard. Even though this is fiction your portrayal of the French government seems deadly accurate. I doubt they will give the British Government in exhile permission for them to fly their brooms through French air-space. The French don't really even deserve their own country. Not only have they been completely invaded twice in the 20th Century but now because of their immigration policies and family values, they will be a muslim nation within the next 50 years. 8 out of every 10 children born today in France are from muslim immigrants. Ooops sorry, I kind of got off on an off topic tangent there. My bad! Anyway, great chapter. I wanted to cry when you said no more updates till after the New Year. Couldn't you just kick your house-guests out early? -Avid Fan, Erik A. Wiggins

Happy Holidays to you lot, too! This was a wonderful early Christmas present. I'm glad Peeves isn't dead and with four brothers I fully expect him to make Voldemort's "life" miserable. I'm glad Neville was rescued safely and that Ginny was able to think quickly and get herself and the other wives out of danger using things other members of the Brotherhood suggested they pack as a prank. Lovely. Amhar's death was certainly poetic justice for his attempt to turn triple (quadruple?) agent. It will be interesting to see how they deal with LaRoche and I'm awaiting the Avalonian Council with baited breath. I hope you two have a very happy new year. Since you won't be posting this at Portkey, I'll recommend it to my LJ friends.

The other thing that came to mind is that there is no real way for France to come out of this with any power whatsoever. They are likely to see done to them what was done to Germany after WWI - the other nations will hit them with an unbelievable number of sanctions and bankrupt the country until some semblance of leadership that doesn't follow evil gets into office.

Given their past history....

Kinsfire posted a comment on Friday 22nd December 2006 3:18am for Chapter 25 - French Fried Troubles

I think that Ginny needs a serious attitude adjustment. That might best be delivered by the others going to the trouble of calling her "Molly" when she's at her loudest and bitchiest.

Might make her stop to think.

Actually, that would be something unusual for her to do - stop and think. She's too much like Molly, and I think that someone is going to have to point that little bit out. Jump to a conclusion, scream at people for it, and then apologise when shown to be wrong. Or, as in this case, have to be stopped from killing someone who has the information that they need.

I love the story, but I wonder how many people realise that it's likely to run at least five to ten chapters AFTER the downfall of Moldie? There's been too much in the political arena to get away with saying "And then they fixed everything" once Tom is dead.
