    Interesting idea, I'm enjoying the story, please continue soon.

Before Harry arrives at Hogwarts, the faculty have a meeting and decide that Harry will need a mentor to help him adjust, keep him out of trouble, and make protecting him easier. They decide that this person should the Head of the House into which Harry is sorted, presumably Minerva McGonagall. But things, of course, don't turn out as planned, and Harry is harder to deal with than anyone expected. Nobody asked him if he wanted a mentor, after all...

NOTE: This story has a prologue. It is not necessary to the plot of the story, but if you wish to read it, it is called(predictably enough) 'Prologue to Life as Dictated by a Talking Hat'

Title: Chapter 40: Chapter 40: Tasks 03 Jun 2010
Reviewer: TangledPencils (Signed)
    Welcome back! lol
    I actually had to go back and re-read the entire story so far, to remember what was happening, but that's ok, it was just as good a read as the first time.
    Glad you updated, please keep the chapters coming.

    Author's Response: lol You're the second one that said they had to re-read, but it's okay. I understand. It's been so long...But yeah. I should be writing more soon. Thanks for reading and reviewing!! ^_^

What's in a name? The-boy-who-lived, prophesied defeater of the Dark Lord, son of the supremely intelligent Lily Evans and talented James Potter, Golden boy of Gryffindor, part-time punching bag and house elf of the Dursleys and the bane of Severus Snape's teaching career, Harry's used to labels. Who would want Harry when they can see instead whoever they like instead? Having never been entirely sure who he is makes him a little too open to suggestion though and unfortunately for him, Umbridge wants to banish his old list of names and create a new one of her own.
Beneath the names others have branded him with will anyone be able to find Harry?

    I've just found your story, and I'm enjoying it very much. I do so hope that Snape will do something rather nasty and permanent to Umbitch, in retaliation. Please continue soon.

    Author's Response:

    Sorry for the long wait but hopefully cuddles and retailiation makes up for it ^^ thanks!!


Harry comes to school missing one eye, and pratically mute. He is sorted into Slytherin. Severus Snape dislikes all things Potter. Can he get over his hatred to see the truth?

Reviewer: TangledPencils (Signed)
    You've made an interesting start here, and have definitely grabbed my interest and attention. I'm very interested to see where you take this, so please continue soon.

    Author's Response: I will try. But I've recently come down with a cold, so my mind has been very fuzzy. TftR

Title: Chapter 17: Danger comes in many forms 26 May 2010
Reviewer: TangledPencils (Signed)
    Thanks for updating, it always feels like ages in between, and then of course, no matter how long the chapter, it's always too short, lol.

    If a reviewer is that uptight that they curse and flame, without being constructive, one has to ask the question...why have they bothered to read if they think it's that bad? I've started reading stories in the past, they start off ok with the story line, but if the story fails to continue to hold my interest, or grammar etc is that bad, I just leave and don't continue it. Like most things, vote with your feet, and leave, don't blast the author, that won't help anything.

    Ok, having said all that, I'll get off my soapbox. I'm still reading and enjoying this story, even though I don't review each chapter. Please continue soon...and with longer chapters, hahaha! Cheers! :)

    Author's Response: *smiles slightly.* I agree with you. I have done the same, and I avoid flaming. Mostly I review to know when the next chapter will be up, heh. I am glad you like this story, and I don't mind if you don't review each chapter. TftR.

Reviewer: TangledPencils (Signed)
    Another good chapter, I'm still enjoying this story, looking forward to your next update!

    Author's Response: Thanks for the Review. I'm glad you like.
