pretty good book. i love harry/daphne stories. she has no real personality from the books so it's easy to make her your own and you did just that with such finesse. didn't really expect ginny to die like that at the end or hermione never to talk to harry again, cuz i like hermione. yay for ron getting his ass kicked though. i don't like ron. i sorta did in the books, but hate him in fanfiction.

Nice, neat and well written one shot...Thanks for the opportunity to read your stories. It's always nice to pass some time with well written stories.

Yet another excellent story from you both.

It never ceases to amaze me as to the plots and the subtly with which you craft such enjoyable and compelling reading.

I am sad to say, but this story is an epic fail (1.5/5). At least for you, I would have considered as an average fic for the most authors.
First, it is full of cliches (the Ice Queen Daphne, the helpful goblins, betrayal of the friends etc.), second you used your typical story elements (SuperHarry, manipulative but stupid Dumbledore, Ron-bashing, archaic state of the WW etc.) without adding any new, original idea, finally your inspirations are too obvious for your story, I was even able to identify several of your key sentences without any effort. For example concept of the magical marriage and comparison of Ron and Draco comes practically word-for-word from Rohata (eg. Paybacks are Witch in fanfiction.net) and I am sure that even she/he borrowed this idea from an earlier fic.
Take no mistake, of course everybody uses cliches, borrows ideas from others, even the professional writers, so it is not my problem. I am complaining because you did not twist them, add any original thoughts as you did in the past. After many excellent fics (the Wizards Fall, the Power of the Press, Sunset over Britain etc.) I expected much more from you. The same is true for Mutant Storm and our other new stories in lesser extent, the quality is not as good as earlier. Finally I hope that you can (and will) find your muse again.

This is one of the few works of yours that I've been able to finish, and I'm incredibly happy I managed it.

I found this, as normal on FanFiction Authors, to be wonderfully written and gripping.

Kudos to you :)

Except for the author's notes at the beginning of the story this was most enjoyable. Several character's were rather out of character but you built the story in such a way that the characters became believable. Thank you for allowing us to read your story.

Bravo! The epilogue looks relatively open ended. As such, if you, or anyone you can recommend for it, can continue the story I'd read it.

*snorts* Sounds like Ginny got a little delusional there after she left Hogwarts.

Great story! And congrats on punching the Harry/Daphne ticket too!

WhooHoo! What a wonderful turn of events. Contrary to what some people say, there are many more tales to be spun in this genre.

This was a great birthday present. I really like how the story came together. I like that Lily realized the mistake and understood what happened. I understand why he totally cut his biological parents off and did what he did to destroy House Potter. Very well done!! Love all of your stuff.

I've never understood the attitude that, in order to pair Harry with someone else, the Weasleys must be ridiculed and diminished.

To be completely honest, I don't think that this was one of your best works, but the different pairing made it so much better. I feel that I have heard the story of Harry with a Slytherin girl too much, but i did still enjoy this story, and I hope you continue to upload more chapters/stories quickly because I have enjoyed all of your works!

This was great! I really enjoyed this. You're very good at not getting caught up in those details that bog down other stories - and one of the few authors that isn't indulgent. Great work!

Read it. Thought about it. Read it again. Then one more time just for grins.

I found the story very enjoyable, especially Voldie's death and the 'suicide' of all his horcruces from the signature. The horcrux concept is one of my many pet peeves in what otherwise could have been an enjoyable series; to be blunt, the whole thing gave me whiplash and made me gag.

I do have two teeny, tiny, little problems with the tale. The first; Gellert, not Gustav, unless you mean to say the reporter interviewed Gellert's son, which is not the impression I got from the scene.

The second one is that to me it reads more like a rough draft, or maybe a fleshy outline. Of all the plot lines here, the one with Hermione is the most complete. Idiot!Dumbledore has become a bit of a cliche, but I would have liked a little more on his motives, beyond just childish petulance that he didn't get his way. I like that you show James has let his skills go, but on the other hand you imply they've been living under the impression the war will resume at any second. The prophecy might have been an elaborate hoax, but I would have like an explanation on why they continued the ruse.

Still, a good job all-around, and great for random laughs in the cubicle.
