OK, so if there weren't other people around I would be dancing round the room - I may save this up and do it later as I'm just so happy that you've updated! Liked the History of Magic conversations and the storytelling that followed. Alice's lecture to the DA was really good. And I'm very glad that Draco has allowed Harry in slightly on the issue of Luna's vision, even if he didn't tell him everything. The DA is really getting off the ground in this chapter, with Harry and Ginny bringing in the ideas about the Flying Squad, working with house elves etc. And that's a nice teaser at the end about Danger's prophecy...Hope you don't plan to keep us in suspense for as long this time!

But dancing in front of other people is fun. Harry and the rest of the Pride will hear the entirety of the vision eventually--Draco just doesn't want to be pitied. I shall try to make the wait-time shorter!

Re joke - AAAARrrrrgggghhhh.... (snicker)

Lotsa nice bits in here; Draco on Lavender's nickname for Ron (I'm glad to see she's more perceptive than she's usually portrayed as, even if she gets hurt faster in consequence), and it is rather about time someone notices something's bothering Draco. Harry organizing the troops, the legend, Neenie recovering at a believable pace.

It's been awhile of course since I've read the previous chapters, so perhaps I should already know why Dumbledore of all people seems to be reading the next prophecy.. but then again maybe not.

All in all interesting, keep up the updates!

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Yes, it really is terrible, isn't it? Draco's sneaky about being upset so it's not too surprising no one's confronted him yet. Dumbledore saw the prophecy the day after Harry used it as justification to be an idiot, and is having another look to see if it might be time to do something he's been thinking about for years. I shall try my best to keep 'em up!

LOL, great to see you back again Anne but you did promise us and I know you keep your word.

Wow, a WonWon LavLav break-up that went quite well :D,liked it espacialy

"Same reason I hate it when Mum buys stuff at the secondhand shops," he said airily. "Never know where it’s been."

. Your Neenie sure loves to use her nails/claws on Ron but the guy must clearly be a masochist.

When will Draco share his secret with the pride and to whom do the lines, discovered by Dumbledore, refer to. Draco or perhaps Neenie?

Now please don't wait for months to update this. Give those other pesky plot bunnies a bunch of carrots and greens and start petting and cuddling the 'Facing' bunny solitaire. LOL

Until next time, take care. C

What Ron is, is willing to take a little pain to get Hermione acting like herself again. Draco will get around to telling the Pride eventually, and yes, those lines in the prophecy are about him. I shall try to get it updated soon!

"Danger. Danger, Will Robinson" Man Oh Man you had me laughing so hard I couldn't even read the rest of the chapter until 10 min later!

Anne B. Walsh replied:

You had to know it was coming at some point...

Yay! New chapter! I'm very glad you resumed this story. Great chapter, and I like that you gave Lavender a lot more insight than I think any of us would have given her (especially with Neenie obviously right there).

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Lavender's got enough shame in her not to make a fuss when one of her yearmates had such a bad experience that she can't even be human around boys. She may rethink things once she's away from the immediate experience, though...

I love the joke its the awesome, and I think someone is not telling the whole truth about that Singularity Suppression...

Anne B. Walsh replied:

I'd have to say you're happy about this chapter. And you may be right.

You evil evil woman. That joke is just ... *headdesk* WRONG!

Funny, but still wrong and evil!

Funny but evil. I believe you've encapsulated my personality.
