Unsorted!
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'

- MAN! What an absloutly WONDERFUL story! I compleately adore it! And I just stayed up until nearly one-thirty to read it when I have to be up very early in the morning to "teach" the crawlers class in the Church nursery. So that says a lot. I can not wait to see what's next!
Author's Response: Thanks!!! I'm glad you like it!! LOL thanks for the review. I'm sorry that I kept you up (sorta sorry anyway - I'm mostly flattered.) Kudos for helping out at your church. :0)

- "'I made a bouncy light-ball!'
'So you did.' Severus said weakly"
Oh, man. That was PRICELESS!!!!!! I ADORE Kallie too. Man, so much of this chapter was just plain hysterical!!! But, sad at the end. Harry really has been through an awful lot.
Author's Response: Yey!! Glad you liked!! Yeah, I found that scene a little sad, too. Not as sad as some, but sad. Sorry to end on a downer. :0/ Thanks for reviewing!!

- Man, this story is just SOOOOOOOOOO amazing! I feel so sorry for Harry! And I feel really bad for Blaise too - what an awful situation! I can't wait for the next chapter!
Author's Response: Yey!! Glad you like sooooooooooo much!!! Yeah, poor Harry, poor Blaise, poor Theo. None of them are particularly happy in this chapter. The next chapter should be out in 2-3 weeks - I want to get the first chapter of my new fic out, first, and it's taking a while. Thanks so much for the review!!

- Wonderful chapter! Severus doesn't have to spy anymore!!! But I feel sorry for him that it won't be made public. Harry with the pictures was sweet and kinda sad. I can't wait to see what's next!
Author's Response: Yey!! Glad you liked!! I'll work on getting the next bit out in a prompt fashion, but no promises - I've got a short break in a week, but until then, and then after then, my life is dead crazy. Once Winter break starts I'll have more time. :0) Thanks for the review!!!

- Oh, poor Harry! He is so ... trauamtized? I can't find a good word. Poor baby. I can't wait to see what's next!
Author's Response: Yeah, definitely poor Harry. Hopefully things will get happier soon. (I'm working on it...) :0) Thanks for the review!

- Oh, man. Poor, poor, poor, poor, poor Harry!!!!!! You really make me feel awful for him. And have I mentioned I LOVE Theo? I can't wait for the next chapter!
Author's Response: LOL glad you like Theo. He's a lot of fun. :0) And yes, this was definitely a 'poor Harry' chapter, but I think we made some progress, at least. Glad you enjoyed this chapter! The next chapter should be out in roughly two weeks - if you read my author's notes, I'm alternating updating this story with my new one, called Outcast's Alley, so though I'm still posting about once a week, LDTH will only update about every 2 weeks. Thanks for the review!! Glad you liked it! Rhiannan
