    How is 'Liz' anonymous if you knew her name? Haha...I think its not bad, just that you could try re-phrasing the paragraphs from the book or it gets pretty boring re-reading the sentences all over again. I think you understand Slytherin, though. Update soon! I hope to see more of Snape.

    You know, I'm probably the only one who doesn't blame Ron here. From Ron's point of view, Harry agreed to pick on someone vulnerable, compounded by the fact that person was a Gryffindor.

    I really like that you didn't change everyone's identities here. Draco and Blaise are still full of prejudice and superiority. It will be interesting to see how Harry's deals with them as he understands more about everything.

    I feel like your Harry is a bit oblivious though. He's kinda parodying what his House is saying without trying to figure out what is behind it. I hope he shows some initiative to understand the tone of the Wizarding World and the delineations on blood.

    Cool!
    Ron's still a prat.
    Did Harry ever return Neville's rememberall or did he give it McGonagall?
    I really like the friendship forming with Blaise.

    Author's Response:

    Oh! Forgot about that... Yes. I assume he gave it to McGonagall XD And thanks! So do I.

    I like the fic so far, but please don't overdo the Harry-turns-into-the-perfect-little-pureblood-snake! It's NOT consistent that he'd turn from being annoyed about people talking bad about muggelborns like his mother to somone just accepting that she was the exception-bla-bla. I can't imagine him turning from a bullied, abused, neglected child into a bully in his own right. That would actually make him more of a James-Potter-double than anything else. I don't quite agree with the notion that you can just either be with us or be against us. That's what caused the war and Voldy's rise to power in the first place. And I dearly hope that you don't intend to turn Harry into a Death Eater just because he has to prove his loyalties! He could actually try to work AGAINST all those horrible predjudices instead of tolerating/accepting them. But maybe that's your plan: make the snakes believe they have the perfect little Slytherin amongst them and then being cunningly outwitted by Harry and turned to an alternative to being a megalomaniac-halfblood-snake's simpering slaves... but somehow I doubt it, because your Harry so far hasn't shown that sort of cunning. He's rather behaving like a nice little follower who'd do almost anything to belong - understandable somhow considering his past, but I can't see him being friends with a spoilt, arrogant, nasty, cruel brat like Draco who must remind him of Dudley.
    Well, I'll be watching this story and look how it turns out. I'm a bit sceptical at present (which might've been obvious considering my review...), but maybe you'll surprise me...

    Author's Response:

    I love your review! (Which is weird I know...)

    No, Harry is NOT going to turn into a Death Eater *shudders* If anything, he might bring some Slytherins into the light. I don't see him becoming a bully either, it doesn't suit him nevermind it not being part of his character. He is trying to get accepted into the house, but he wouldn't compromises what he truely believes in - not to say that he wouldn't sneak out of his dorm at night on a dare, though. At the moment he's not really friends with Malfoy, more like tolerating his presence. But I know what you mean. 

    Hopefilly this quells some of your fears. If have any plot ideas you want to share with me, or questions, feel free to Email or PM me!
