I am really enjoying this story. You are doing a great job of portraying the characters in a very believable fashion.

For some reason, I have always liked the twins as a comic relief from the cold and frightening war.
I am glad you added them as fairly big characters in this story.

I look forward to the next installment.

Great story.

One small point; when Minerva and co quit Hogwarts, Dumbledore refers to the Auror teams stolen magic; I think hidden or blocked should be used. Stolen implies that he understands that it is gone and that he needs to locate and return it. Hidden would mean that he and the others think the magic is still there, but somehow can't be used anymore, which is what I think you want.
Small point, but there's little else to say about such a great story. I'm looking forward to more.

> He and his brother weren't experts in muggle stuff,
*chuckle* Thumbing your nose at the cliche, are you?

Sending a Stinger and then and EXPLODING HEX at a phoenix? AD, you're a raving idiot if that alone doesn't tell you what your light/dark ratio is.

> Fawkes dropped the sheep in his bathtub
*laugh* Evil, evil Fawkes!

I was about to yell about you about lobsters, but you already had that part covered.

> She was upset and it was his job to keep her happy so she would keep feeding him and attending to his itchy places.
That does sound like cat-logic, doesn't it? More importantly, it's a moment of levity (for the reader) in the midst of a tense scene.

His attempted levity with the DOINK spell . . . He's trying to be funny. Her reaction of exasperation. Good idea for him to shut down at that. Good demonstration of his wounded psyche.

I like that Amos character. Good OC.

Good addition to the story. Thanks.

This does explain the Wizard Fall story, quiet a bit. Will you be covering the battle part in another story? Where is Flitwick hiding? If you're going to do another story. Please add the part of Percy's wedding and the twins retaliation to it. Will there be a story for when they come back?

I must say I was uncertain of the future you painted in Wizards Fall. I greatly enjoyed the fic as I do with all your work, but it seemed like a bleak future.

Now that we have been given another look in to the Wizards Fall universe, and seen part of what drove Harry to the decisions that were made, I have to say I love the idea and world you are creating. It seems very fitting that Harry would take it upon himself to save Magic from a world that no longer deserved the gift, even if he wasn't aware at this time that he was doing it.

This new universe you are creating is a perfect start anew from the completion of Sunrise/Sunset. I am really looking foreword to see what little piece of time you share with us next.

This is an awesome story. It kept my interest the whole time and I never wanted to stop reading it. I like the ending, you gave us enough information to be satisfied, yet left some out for our imagination. Good job, as always.

Are you gonna write more on this? I like everything you guys have written, and I was greatly disappointed when sunrise was finished. You should write more.

Good story. I'm not a big fan of prequels but the way you set up this "universe" makes ones like this story work marvelously. Please keep writing more of it, and of course I'd also love a sequel to the original story too! {g}

Oh and as for the penguins, have you been re-watching "The Wrong Trousers" again? {eg}

Why don't you post all the stories writen.

you say in a messeage that you have more stories, even if they aren't ready why not post them. People can give feedback and other respons to finish the story.???

Unlike other authors, we will not post a story which we aren't sure we'll complete. Yes, we have a number of incomplete stories, but until we commit to completing them, they won't see the light of day.

I   don't know about you, but I hate reading half a story.

*Blinks*

The Mary Celeste? You sir [and madam] are mad. However, madness has always bordered on genius.

Did you have to be so nasty about Ginny? Of course you did. However, do you really think that the Twins and Bill would have spared Snape? I think they would have pulled Harry off, only to kill him themselves.

More please? *Begs with pathetic puppy dog eyes*

Another Great story from the Alyx & Bob think tank! ;) Keep it up guys, it improves my day to read your stories.

Rufus posted a comment on Monday 13th August 2007 8:15pm

I read the first part some time ago and I must say this is even better... I just hope that you'll provide us with more of the same vein...

Alyx, have you ever heard of virtual donuts? It taste like the real ones but without the not-so-healthy aspects of them... :-)

Oh, and I also love your disclaimers... They make my day... :-)

That was quite lovely. Would read anything you write.

Awesome story. I really look forward to reading your future work.

I like the story, especially the modified Randy Rams and the casual way Harry uses magic. Also Fawkes present for Dumbledore.

When you write the story about Luna coming to the island, would it be possible to include Fuzz the Snorkack? I liked her very much ("meep whirr" and her incredible acceleration on tiled floors).

Another great story, I am so glad you decided to expand upon the 'Wizards Fall' universe. I really enjoyed that story and hope you make a sequel to it about the reemergence of magic, but this story was great too. It did clear up some of the questions that WF created, especially about Neville and the rest of the DA and why they didn't help Hermione. Also how Dumbles took credit for killing Voldie. I hope to see more of this universe, I think it is a great idea and a very realistic outcome of the wizarding world. Anyways, keep up the good work with the stories.
