My apologies for taking so long to update. This story has in no way been abandoned. In fact, I've written tons of material, it just so happens to be in long hand on notebook paper. It's so much more fun to keep writing than to type up stuff you've already written ;)
Hope you enjoy!

Wow. I honestly thought I couldn't make a chapter out of this, but then I went to a pub with my computer and it was 2000+ words. Who knew?

This chapter was entirely unplanned, but written as a result of the GIANT plot hole I left in the last Chapter. Ooops. Either you all didn't notice or were just too kind to point it out. Heh.

You know, I never used to understand what people meant when they said they had no control over a story, that the characters took it wherever they wished. That the author was just a vessel. Well.
I started out writing this chapter intend to tie up some loose ends with Dumbledore and move forward into a relatively sedate discussion about the Philosopher's Stone.
That was not to be. Our boys had some emotional release to take care of, apparently.
