    Good for Ron convincing his father to help Harry. This was a great chapter. I hope that Harry isn’t hurt.

    Arthur is not much of a fighter, is he?

    Author's Response: Oh little-sun, you just need to read the next chapter. Let me know what you think after that. Hang in there, the beginning of this fic is depressing but Harry will come around and believe it or not- he'll find his smile. Thanks for reviewing. Hugs, SHaria

    "specious" - I don't think this word means what you think it means. I can't figure out what word you meant to use instead, but "specious" is an adjective usually used to describe something that sounds right on the surface but is actually wrong. Or, more generally, something which misleadingly looks good but which is actually bad.

    So, it doesn't really work in "The descent into the miasma of his depression was slow and specious. " Try instead - "His descent into depression was subtle and prolonged."

    Author's Response: Thanks for your input Anon #37, but actually- specious is exactly the word I wanted to use. You see, I also traveled down that slow and specious path a long time ago. One can't possibly realize the deceptive and gradual attributes of depression (and the journey getting there) unless you've experienced it.  All the unhealthy ways one starts to think seems plausible and even justified, but in truth it's like sinking into a pit of camouflaged quicksand. So yes, I believe specious sums up the journey and the character of the beast quite nicely. But again, I do appreciate you sharing your opinion. SHaria

    I really love the Weasleys and you've made Arthur perfect! Ron, too. I'm so glad I found your story.

    Author's Response:

    You are so sweet to review. Thank you, I really appreciate it.

    I love Molly and Arthur and want to give them more of a presence in Harry's life (when possible). I'm glad you are enjoying the story, SHaria
