    Oh Wow awesome chapter! I loved it. Remus is an idiot! LOL

    Author's Response: LOL yeah, he kinda is. That always bothered me in canon, that Remus was so secretive about what he was, rather than fighting for his rights. I mean, that's totally realistic, but it was sad, and Remus was supposed to be a Gryffindor.

    Sweeet delicious crack *drools*. Just came down off the high. (That's some good crack)

    I'm mad at Hermione but I think I'm mad in the way I get mad when someone insults someone I love (I lurv my Harry) which is like a whole lot madder and less rational than I get when someone insults me. Which means I want to smash her face in.

    Harry is just adorably sweet to have such a mature perspective on the whole thing and it also speaks of how much he cares about her. I hope Hermione feels like a total b*tch when she finds out. On the one hand Tobias' life story is none of her freaking business but on the other hand, they are at war and she's probably smart for not just accepting everything as okay just because everyone else tells her to.

    I'm also not sure talking to her is a good idea. Sure maybe it will give her some perspective on how much of an effing b*tch she is but she's really smart and I wouldn't put it past her to figure him out.

    On the whole though, I am very disappointed in her because no matter what she says, I don't think she'd be as suspicious of someone who was human-looking and if he were a human adult she'd probably never even question his presence. Hell, she kept Lupin's secret at first but he was a human-looking, adult Professor, 3 things she trusts. So yeah, I think she totally has a double standard there.

    Author's Response: YEY lovely long review!!...but please don't drool on me. And crack is bad for you. Just sayin'. LOL yeah, I was kinda mad/sad about Remus and Hermione both, writing this, mostly 'cause I feel bad for Tobias. I mean, I'm madder at Remus than at Hermione, 'cause at least Hermione doesn't KNOW that this is her friend, but still. Anyway, thanks again for the review!! I'm glad you like my fic!!

    Excellent story. Don't usually like creature fics...but this is so well done! You have so much rolling around in my head right now... such as SS knew what to do with Mo, who is not the average human baby. So, is SS also U-S/Greater Fae? Is SS Tobias' father? Tobias does not recognize SS as 'People" - so does SS have some U-S/Dark Fae heirloom that allows a spy to completely block any non-humaness to other People? Or does it have to do w/ Tonks comment about 'weird wizarding genetics?' And if SS is U-S, how did he get to Hogwarts in the first place? Was he also a 'switch' at 15? Is that how Lily knew how important it was for Harry to NOT look like his biological father? Did her charms,etc do more than make HP look like JP? Based on the conversation SS had with Dumbledore when Tobias/HP was in the basement in Grimmauld Place, SS was agitated to the point of pacing. What WAS wiped out when Tobias/HP took the potion to remove the glamors? Why did that upset SS? Was there anything in there that 'masked' Tobias/HP as being People to other People? If SS was not a 'swith',did he go to Hogwarts to be educated so he could be an archivist, or whatever else requires higher education, to the royal court? What about SS comment "I have more important matters to attend to" --- did that refer to him needing to report to the Queen & Consort that Harry Switch was Harry Potter who was now Tobias Batard and that Mo was OK? SS says "Mr. Potter is pointing out the danger he constantly courts in openly being the Great HP...he must cease to be Harry Potter" which would makes things simpler for the U-S to protect both their heir & the Queen's granddaughter.
    Oh well...I am rambling now...so please I respectively request for your muse to inspire you into answering my questions as your delightful tale unfolds.

    Author's Response: LOL thanks for the lovely long review. I'm glad you like my fic so much, and have so many questions. Hopefully everything'll get sorted out as the story goes along. See ya!

    Well, I'm French (I'm likely to make language's mistakes, I'm sorry for that, I hope I'm at least understandable) and I've just discovered your story.

    I'm on exam too, but the fact is that I red all the chapters in an couple of hours instead of working..! I'm addicted to this fic now!

    er...It's the first time I've red a creature fic, but I'm convinced !I pretty like the social and political dimension of the story, and I think Rowling doesn't insit enough on this point.And I realised with surprise that transfiguration isn't so incredible as I could think before reading this creature fic.

    Well; I'm looking forward Snape/harry interactions, but I'm very happy because you take care of your plot, it's setting slowly, but it's very well done, and I very like it.

    I'm wondering how Harry will deal with Mo at Hogwarts...! Because I wouldn't like Snape and harry interractions not "private" with the baby in ! Or maybe Molly will take care of her?

    thanks for this very good fic !

    Author's Response: Hey, thanks for reviewing!! I understand you just fine, so don't worry. If you want, though, you can review in French - I read it almost as well as English. Anyway, I'm really glad you like my story!! Thanks again!

    Harry is right; Remus is a coward for hiding what he is. Despite what he thinks, Remus' decision to be 'human with a little furry problem' has actually made his life harder, not easier or better. No matter how Remus justifies it in his own head, he was wrong to expose Harry in the manner that he did.

    I feel really bad for Harry, when it comes to Hermione. It's really sad that she is being so reserved and distrustful toward him. It makes me wonder if she is in some way prejudiced. One mistake that he made was responding to her letter as if he wasn't Tobias, which will only solidify her belief that they are two different people. It was foolish of him.

    Author's Response: Hmmm...I have to disagree. Tobias NEEDS for Hermione to think they are two different people, so that he can return to Hogwarts without issues. He did it on purpose. On the other hand, I totally agree with you about Remus. How can he hide his whole life, and still call himself a Gryffindor?? Thanks for the review!! I'm really glad you like the story!

    Author's Response: Thanks for the review! I'm glad you liked! And thanks for your good wishes. I think I did well, but I don't know yet. :0)

    How wonderful. Seriously, this has been a great read. I admit, I cringed at the scene where Lliannan-she showed up (there was an incredible Mary-Sue vibe) and I am shamed to admit that I was relieved when she dropped dead. In fact it was so startlingly brilliant that I laughed (but I felt rather guilty about that later). The pacing and build up for Harry's changes has been slow and carefully managed, with every change explained. The original characters have not become the focus in place of Harry at any point, despite playing major roles. The cultural and political background has been well thought out, and I am guessing researched as well. I loved this last chapter in particular since we finally get to see him really having to deal with the fall out of the meeting and how difficult it's going to be for him to deal with everyone.
    I don't know why but I have this image of a scene where Remus and Harry haven't quite managed to get around their different approaches to their heritages and Harry gets angry and asks Remus what he would do if Harry dropped dead that instant, would he have Mo's wings cut off so she could be more 'human' as well? Especially since Remus's decisions can't be trusted since he takes a poison on a monthly basis just to make the humans feel better. Although that would really be twisting the knife as it drove home the point of why he wasn't willing to trust him. The danger his mentality and his decision to out Harry is going to impact Mo a great deal so Harry can argue from that stance quite comfortably once he's thought about how many ways Remus was wrong.
    Lol, this is how you know that a story is good, when you can read it and see a dozen different ways it could go and want to write them all... and this is a fan piece to begin with, so that's an awkward feeling. Anyways I just wanted to say how good your fic was and I do hope you get a chance to update very, very soon. I should have just reviewed each chapter but I suspect I would be repeating myself a lot so I will just have to apologize for the length of this review instead. Sorry!

    Author's Response: ROFL. I'm still laughing as I write. Yeah, there were so many fics out there with the 'mate' thing that I just wanted to nip that in the bud right away. Animals do not have only one perfect 'mate' and never possibly fall in love with anybody else. Seriously. Anyway, thanks so much for the lovely long review. I really enjoyed reading it, and I'm really glad you like the story thus far. Thanks!! Rhiannan

    Alright, I put all your letters from every chapter into blockquotes. Take a look. :) I hope that you like it. It should be a lot easier to read than bold on top of italics. I also fixed the strike through part of Ron's letter and Harry's in a previous chapter. You can use strike through on text at this site. It has a button in the text editor on the site. I will look into adding a button on the site for you to use within the next couple of weeks. That way you will be able to just highlight what you want to be put in the special letter format.

    Author's Response: Awesome, thanks! Rhiannan
