I suppose you're getting sick of all this by now, but you also write an excellent Snape. I'm going to keep this comment brief, but it is so good to see Harry joking again. Also, your Dumbledore feels much more grandfatherly than the one in Canon ever did. It's been a while since I last read ToD, but I seem to recall there's a good reason for that. Anyway, I'm looking forward to Harry getting back to Hogwarts. Next Chapter, AWAY!

I'm glad you like my Snape and that you find Dumbledore grandfatherly!   I had fun writing them!

And I don't get tired of reading comments about my stories!   thanks for writing!

Ok, never mind my whining about Casey dying just to have a H/G fic.
It was brilliant to think of something like that to make Harry sick and poor Casey was just perfect for it! You described her enough to let us know how Harry feels but you kept enough distance to allow us to read on without many problems.

Besides it would have been so cliché to let Harry get sick of is grieve for Sirius os you solved that very good with an OC.

Carrying on then :)

I'm glad you understand why I did what I did!   Thanks!   And yeah, I didn't want to write a cliche'd story.   Glad you're enjoying it!

I would like to congratulate your Brit pickers . It is so rare - and such a pleasure - to read a fic set in the UK , written by an American but wihout having one's 'suspension of disbelief' jarringly and repeatedly challenged by screamingly 'wrong' American expressions and habits in every other paragraph.
BTW you forgot a funeral for Sirius the dog or at least some explanation of what had happened to his body.

Abraxan replied:

I'm so sorry I missed seeing this review!   Thanks a lot for your kind words about my Brit-picker!   She's British-born and has traveled the world but still lives in England.   She does a really good job.

Yup, I left out Sirius the dog's funeral, but Harry was so devastated by Casey's death that he couldn't think about the poor dog.   Since the story is from Harry's POV, I left it out because of that.

ROTFL! You can't imagine how many reviews I've gotten with folks yelling at me for killing off poor Casey. She's gone but not forgotten - keep reading (all the way through "The Time of Destiny," Refiner's sequel) and you'll see what I mean. And I'm using Casey as a character in the original novel I'm working on now, simply because she was so popular with readers. Thanks for writing!

Whee! Ginny/Harry stuff already springing. I did love Casey and all, but she's not Ginny. She was perfect for him at that stage of his life though, so yay her! Snape is so...mean. Obviously he's on the 'good guy' side, but still...hmm...

Boy, Harry's temper is a problem, good thing about the pheonix song making him all tranquil...oh wait.

Alittle more light-hearted. Quite nice actually.
