Nice chapter, I like the slow paced nature of this story as it does not seem rushed and all over the place to get to another action scene.

But does this now mean the end of bookspace? As Harry is back in England.

First let me just say a very big THANK you to the betas (Keith and Dorothy) for all of their work. I that you have a very hard just since Bob can’t spell and don’t worry about Alyx’s note about you pink bunny slippers she just hasn’t met her match yet. Really it’s OK if you wear pink bunny slippers, everyone does (ok well not me because I have a very small wand and can’t bear people laughing at me).
Now Bob….. Oh, wait sorry about the spelling thing. It’s just that it take so long to get your stuff through beta that…well there has to be something wrong with it. LOL
Now Bob why is Nagini already in Hogsmeade? Are you trying to get through the story early? ……..OK, don’t start throwing punches. It would be nice if your story could just have say 20 chapters.
Next topic Bob, where is Ginny? You know I know that she loves me so write it in THE DAMED STORY…..
Thanks guys for the new chapter and happy writing.

Yeah! I love Hermione in see-through negligee's! There's quite simply nothing better. O yeah!

I liked it. I'm hoping that the intent for this story is to be quite a few more chapters to go and that you bring the Weasley's into the story at some point. They've had a little show here and there but nothing of consequence really.

The snakes seem to be totally Slytherin since its all about "what's in it for me". Nice fight description with Tonks, sounds like a real SNAFU job. You didn't say how it turned out though, so you left us all wondering if the auror's had caught all (but one) of the nut cases.

the singing penis ? good lord i fell out of my chair when that little bit of artistic license hit . awesome job on the fic. I've bean reading this nonstop since last night at about 5:30 with an 8 hour sleep break.( it's good to have three days off in a row) I thoroughly enjoy this fic and hope you update soon for the 8th chapter. Alyx have you ever considered the use a a large pit of fire ants to tort.......errr educate your hubby? maybe a large chain mail bag of role play dice to bludgeon with?

i am sorry but my english is not so good.
what exactly does "The Stag at Bay Becomes a Lion" mean? does "at bay" holds a special meaning that i am not getting?

Bobmin356 replied:

This is an old term. Loosely put it means to corner or trap something. Therefore, a stag at bay, or trapped, becomes a vicious creature, fighting for it's life. A lion if you will.

It is an old latin saying, and means "I may appear to be gentle and peaceful, but mess with me and I'll do whatever it takes to protect me and mine."

Hope this helps.

"You know that means you have to ravish me right here, now that you've claimed me."

"Here? In front of everyone?" he said doubtfully.

"It's a Muggle tradition. Why do you think Dan never says that to Emma? He's too shy to do it in public," she replied.

Dan nodded. "I hate doing it in public," he said in agreement.

"I don't mind," added Emma.


*howls*
The entire chapter was fun, but that one exchange has to be the best part. Thanks for brightening my entire day!

Wonderful chapter.
Wishing for some Harry kicks butt action. :)
Thanks for making this "PG13" at least.

*wonders why Crys is getting picked on*

One last question: Will we see some Weasley interaction soon? I'm curious as to Ginny's reaction to Harry/Evan getting unmasked. If that ever happens.

Good work. Keep it up and all that.

Bobmin356 replied:

Eventually the truth will come out and ALL of Harry's friends will know it. But for now the secret will be kept.

As for Crys, well, he was mean to Alyx and she decided to thump him. I am remaining neutral in this affair since the last time I got involved, she showed me what she can do with an industrial meat grinder. It's not pretty and those squirrels were mighty upset about it.

As to the rating, even when we get risque with our stuff, we firmly believe in fade to black moments.

Wow, an impressive chapter here, and got to be wondering what will happen with Nagini/Riddle now that they have an idea that it's bad to got to Hoggies, will they try anyway if things get to desperate? Got to say, that wedding night prank was insanely funny, and can't wait to see what the revenge against Harry might be(maybe endless boxer shorts?) and looking forward to what Madame Bones does next, along with how the rest of the wizarding world reacts when Harry finally reappears.

Swell chapter, thanks.

But "Station Zebra" is in the ARCTIC, a complete world away from Antarctica! This grave factual error makes me wonder what other parts of your "history" are not true. :)

I never said Icestation Zebra. If you want to think I did, I can't and won't try to dispel your hallucinations.

Enjoyed the latest chapter - thanks for sharing it.

Love the disclaimer at the beginning, one tiny inconsequential correction though, "The sound of triggers cocking was clearly heard and Bob flinched" - one doesn't cock triggers, one cocks hammers. I'll take cover now.
N!

Well Alyx, I personally think you did a wonderful job on the AN's. It let's us know what you're thinking, since you aren't the one actually writing the story.

Bob...an excellent chapter. I loved the honeymoon prank scene.

Keith and Dorothy, thanks for getting this chapter back to Alyx and Bob quickly.

And to everyone, hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. For all the authors out there, may your wits stay sharp, and hope the writer's block never visits your computer.

Dustin

P.S. Bob, if you're running out of people to use for disclaimers, you can use my persona if you like...

As one of your reviewers coming out of the woodworks, I bow humbly to your brilliance. Can't wait to see what Harry does to Nagini and how the world reacts to Harry when they find out he is still magical.

*grovels at the feet of Alyx and Bob*

I apologize M'Lady and Good Sir for not being a proper commenter on your fine work and will take whatever punishment you see fir to delve to the lowly devoted reader. I have enjoyed this story immensely and look forward to each posting. And I do have a new favorite scene thanks to this chapter. Where it was Harry putting Hermione's cousin in her place, that now has been replaced by Sirius and his amazing singing penis. I nearly fell out of my chair reading that part. Thanks for that.

In tribute I have sent a mint 1976 Chevy Vega hatchback in the original Buckskin color with gold accents. I would also have sent donuts but believe Alyx would have not approved. Bob... you may want to be sure and check the tires when it arrives so they don’t go stale... errr… I mean flat.

Your humble reader,
PA

You get two brownie points for "little" Sirius' singing extravaganza. I love falling out of my chair with laughter. Well I assume it was laughter, but it couldn't have been the burritos I had for dinner....who knows?

I liked the last bit of the story, before the AN's as I always like them. Isn't it nice for Bones to know that they have given her just enought thread to hang herself by? Of course, if they would have given her the elastic out of Sirius' underwear, then she could have gone bungee jumping, but that is for a completly different story. Keep up the good work.
