    That's a good idea. People like Hermione wouldn't need to study their brains out every summer just to try and know as much as everyone else. And the little things that Ron and other wizard raised adn born children seem to know, the nusiances of society, could be learned by the less fortunate witches and wizards.

    Author's Response: I agree, which is why I brought it up. It was clear in Canon that Harry was pretty much clueless and he certainly could have used a course in Wizardry Studies. I always wondered why they had a Muggle Studies class, but ignored the students with a lack of knowledge in the Wizardry side of things. Thanks for the review.

At the beginning of Harry's first year at Hogwarts, the staff realize that he needs someone to help him.

    Yay! This was a good chapter. I really enjoyed reading your take on Eileen Prince. The part about Tobias becoming sensitive to magic an drinking because of that makes him pitiable rather then simply being a bastard who beat his wife and son.

    I'm glad that Harry and Draco were able to make up.

    Great story! You update really fast! :)

    Author's Response:

    I tried to figure why Eileen would stay with an abusive husband. She was a witch after all! So this came up to my mind and I like her. I am updating fast because I have written a lot of chapters. I am a little stuck with the last ones, but I am working on them. Thanks a lot for reading. I love reviews.

In response to Jan_AQ's challenge "Summer School," Harry learns that he is going to be spending his summer in school because he did absolutely appalling on his finals during fourth-year. He's not happy about it, though, because it was supposed to be his first summer of not having to live with the Dursleys. However, at Hogwarts, they have a different approach to summer school than Muggles do. Summer school teachers cannot teach their own subject. What, oh, what will Snape teach, if not Potions?

Title: Chapter 1: Not my fault 19 Jun 2010
Reviewer: N_Forest (Signed)
    Wow, I find it hard to believe that it is even possible to get such bad marks in school. And Harry's really losing it if he told the rest of the school he's Snape's ward and they aren't suppose to know.

    Exciting start, I hope the rest of your story is just as promising.

    Author's Response:

    I'm knocking it up to Harry having a really stressful year. I'm glad you liked this chapter. Hope the rest of the story lives up to your expectations. Thanks for the review. :)


Title: Chapter 2: Detention with Snape 19 Jun 2010
Reviewer: N_Forest (Signed)
    Yikes! That was worse than Snape just simply going ballistic. It's the "I'm disappointed, you could have done better speech" with a few insults thrown in. Awesome to read! I am really enjoying your characterization of Harry. His thoughts are so. . .Harry. Especially the way he blames things on Ron and gets a "DREADFUL" in Astronmy.

    Author's Response: Most people don't really like my characterizations so thanks. I'm glad you're enjoying him. Thanks for your review. :)

Title: Chapter 4: First Class Disaster 20 Jun 2010
Reviewer: N_Forest (Signed)
    Shouldn't there be some kind of safety laws? Like a Potions Safety Course that anyone working with potions should need to have, just to make sure they don't kill anyone? If one of the other students had been badly injured or died, I'm certain Dumbledore would have had to deal with the Wizarding version of a lawsuit.

    It was interesting even with the more fantasical parts. Not much character development for Professor Vetor, maybe later on? There's so many good characters at Hogwarts who get ignored simply because people don't already know a lot about them.

    I'm enjoying this story more and more with every chapter. I just don't often have time to read. :(

    Author's Response:

    In Professor Vector's defense, she's nervous. I think it's explained in the next chapter from Professor Sinistra, but Vector really is the only one that is remotely close to Snape in brewing. She's just nervous, though, because she's really outside of her element. She's used to numbers, not dangerous smoking potions that can kill people. :)

    She gets character development later on. When I was writing this chapter, I didn't have a lot of time so it had to be short. I'm just getting to her development, though. "Breakfast Oddities" is where we see Professor Vector the most. I agree with you about authors ignoring some good characters. I like to think I'm not one of those authors.

    Well, thank you for leaving me reviews when you do get a chance to read. I'm glad you're enjoying it.


Title: Chapter 5: Second Class Boredom 21 Jun 2010
Reviewer: N_Forest (Signed)
    Pity, I was hoping to hear Flitwick talk about Grindalwald and how he was defeated. History of Magic sounds like such an interesting class, it is rather sad that no one ever seems to write about what is learned in it.

    Not much development in this chapter. But I'm definitely looking forward to whatever increased conflict develops between Harry and Draco.

    Author's Response: Sorry for not responding promptly to your review. I do give some details about Grindalwald in later chapters...namely "Dark Wizard's Downfall." So you might get some of what you were hoping for. I'd love to write a full class of History of Magic...I just don't know any of it. And you shouldn't have to wait too long for that conflict between the boys. :) Thanks for the review.

    Wow, it's Severus with severe OCD. That was really sad, and depressing and interesting. I want to know if Severus ever can get better, if the Muggles can do anything to heal him.

    The first paragraph was really good. It grabbed my attention and set the scene so. It's sorrt of freaky to think that there are actually people who think like that.

    Great story!

    Wow, just wow. I really like this. You managed to make a complete AU without doing into too much detail and starting from an early point.
