Happily functioning in a state of ignorance, I would not know a Twilight joke if one stood in front of me wearing a nametag. I do know how to recognize extremely welcome updates when they are pointed out to me by authors, however! Yay!

That was fun, although I kind of question Harry's wisdom in unleashing the looks-like-apparition-inside-Hogwarts secret, but I suppose the attacking party was sufficiently carefully chosen that the possibility of leakage was minimal. And off go Gred and Forge, into the world of entrepreneurship. Will we get to witness Molly's reaction? Bet people will hear *that* from London to Hogwarts! (And maybe even in France!) Oh my, I just thought: what if she thinks/assumes that Ron and Gin knew something about the twins' plan in advance and failed to either stop them or notify her? (shudder)I wouldn't want to be them.

Thank you for existing, sorry I haven't been, much, lately (see review on BC for slightly more detail).

So I decided to leave a review anyway. Mainly because you are writing your arse off and you have to be credited for that fact.

Loved how you managed to incorporate the leaving of George & Fred although they really didn't have to. But then again......they wouldn't be Freg & George if they didn't.

Draco ...... men are so clueless at times. But it must be hard on the ladies as well. I do wonder what choice Amanda will make this time around because I'm convinced it will happen again.

Sirius really got a serious arse whooping! He'll be made fun of by the rest of the Pack, that's for sure.

Keep writing Anne and I hope to have time to read the new story on TBC this coming week.

When you described a member of the DE rear guard with silvering hair i figured there was something off...
I love Sirius.
So... is Draco figuring out what's going on between Luna and Amanda?
I'm excited for summer action!
Update soon!

Aletha is never going to let him live this down. Heck no one is ever going to let him live this down :)

I wonder how long its going to take Draco to figure out what is going on with Luna/Amanda...he's a boy, someone is going to have to tell him most likely.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for another chapter!

Anne B. Walsh replied:

True, no one will let him live it down, but he may manage to get his reputation back on his own. Draco's going to remain clueless but suspicious for a while yet. You're welcome, you're welcome, you're welcome.

Well, this suddenly makes going back to work tomorrow more bearable...A new chapter of Facing Danger to set me up nicely for the week, lovely. And what a fantastic chapter it is too. More legends and history (which I love, being a historian by nature as well as education, and a mythologist to boot) for us as well as the Pride to enjoy. A modified version of Fred and George's exit, and OWLs/NEWTs as peaceful as any formal exams are ever allowed to be...All this, and a mock Death Eater attack thrown into the mix too! Would hate to be Sirius when the rest of the Pack-Parents hear about his defeat - how many years of teasing would that provide...? So glad FD is back, dare I ask for more as soon as humanly possible....

Squeals like a fangirl! Happy New Year to you, too. You posted earlier in the evening than you usually do. *does a happy dance* So the school year ends - does that mean a new Arc, or a new Year?

Okay, I read the previous chapter once (cause I didn't remember reading it) and this chapter twice. Was the Twilight reference Ginny's werewolf joke? That's probably not it, but I'm really dense, as you know. I had to at least guess.

You had me so nervous when the Death Eaters showed up; I didn't figure out something was wonky until the grey haired one in the Entrance Hall was worried about how something would look on her record. What?! So only Harry and Ron knew that it was a feint, huh? Good job, DA!

I reread Taina's review from the last chapter and now I'm worried. What chapter had Amanda's story in it?

And then you were offering kmr77 a tissue because she was going to cry when Draco died... Damn, I keep hoping that a something will happen to change that future, because what a seer Sees shouldn't be set in stone - random chance, or someones decision might change events. (I know I can't change your mind, but a girl can always hope. *sigh*)

Please, please, PLEASE hurry up and upload the next chapter! I'm practically dying of anticipation here. I've been waiting for months and months for you to update Facing Danger. I can't wait any longer!!!!!

I have read all of your stories on either here or fanfiction.net here in the past couple of weeks and I really like them. You are a very talented writer and I wish I had even a tenth of your ability.

Is it just me or is Draco not as into Amanda as she is into him? It seems to me, and I could be wrong, his heart belongs to Luna. That Amanda is wasting her time with her little challenge with Luna because he already knows who he wants to be with.

I also love how you have done the relationships of Ron/Hermione and Harry/Ginny, they seem so much more defined than in canon.

Anne B. Walsh replied:

You're quite right about Draco and Amanda, and Amanda knows it, but she still has to try, for reasons known only to herself.

PoHer posted a comment on Saturday 21st November 2009 11:45pm

You are by far, one of the most talented authors I have read. Your ability to create a different world and bring that sort of life to your characters is amazing. Please do finish the story as soon as possible, if only to stop me from dying of antiception.

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Much blushing here. Thank you, and I shall truly try!

I do so love the "Paul was here" bit. G&S is always a good idea, and I like that Lee and Maya's Pack/Pride has their own oath.

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Well, the original oath has consequences that the Pack and Pride don't really know about yet...

Taina posted a comment on Thursday 12th November 2009 5:17pm

I swear that this is the last thing. I just realized that I didn't say anything about the chapter. Sorry! I was just so excited because I had just finished re-reading the entire fic! And I had to ask all those questions before I forgot them.

Maya and Lee are amazing! I love their relationship!

A second Pride is fantastic! I can't wait for the others!

I must admit that I was very confused when Aletha was called "Auntie." I forgot that Winky was expecting babies! And what's happened with Kreacher?

"Paul was Here." Perfect.

Ok, I think that's all, but if not I'll just review again.

Taina

Anne B. Walsh replied:

The mess-ups are forgiven. Kreacher is still sulking under the water tank.

Taina posted a comment on Thursday 12th November 2009 5:00pm

Sorry for the mess ups down there. I was very excited!!!! =D

Taina posted a comment on Thursday 12th November 2009 4:54pm

AW YAY!!!!! That was amazing!!!! The chapter and the rest of the story. I love re-reading this!!! Question? Or more like a silly fancy. Would Draco leave Luna with a gift before he goes? Maybe two? With blue and pink wrapping paper? And does Alex have a sister? And does Draco die because Amanda lets him die? Like is the same thing that happened in the story Amanda told Luna going to happen with, Matt, and Draco and this time she her brother? Or I could be completely wrong. Just asking. Or does she save her brother and Draco and she dies? But that could be very wrong as well.

Enough of my rambling. This is amazing as always! Keep up the fantasticness that is DV and your writing in general!!!!

Post soon please!!!!

Taina

Anne B. Walsh replied:

No, I don't think Draco will be leaving Luna any presents, but you never know... ooh, good spotting with Amanda's story!

Anneila posted a comment on Monday 26th October 2009 9:59am

Well, you haven't scared me away... And I was really excited to notice this update. I just had to scim through a couple of previous chapters to remember all your characters and their happenings. But it was a pleasure, since reading this fic is always a joy. :)

I was very surprised by this other Pride, but it was a good way to make Maya feel loved.

This is still in my top five favorite fics, so don't worry, I'll wait patiently for your next update. I started reading this maaaany years ago and I'm not about to stop now. :)

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Yeah, it really has been a while. *blush* I'm working on getting better!

Oh, Fred and George are doing okay. Here, have some tissues...

Rach86 posted a comment on Sunday 25th October 2009 5:04am

Awesome chapter! I have no idea how you manage to keep all your characters straight in your head - there's so many, and they're all so real. I really love what you're doing with Lee Jordan, making him a character in his own right and not just the twin's tagalong.

Can't wait to see how the year goes!

Anne B. Walsh replied:

They just sorta do it on their own, can't really take credit. And here's hoping I can finish writing about the year in somewhat less than an actual year!

Waywren Truesong posted a comment on Saturday 24th October 2009 8:03pm

Not in the least, though I did have a pleasant feeling of being completely adrift 'cos I couldn't remember a dang thing. XD

Of course, I do this with stories I last caught up with a week before update... so don't feel bad. ^^

Anne B. Walsh replied:

I'll try and keep it up a tad bit better from here on out.

Yay!!!! The year's been started and FD's been updated!! Don't worry, I'm a highly loyal Dangerverse fan, and it will take a lot more to scare ME away!

Anne B. Walsh replied:

I'll keep that in mind.
