Now, if i understood it correctly, this is a reedit of another author's work. I haven't read the original, so i don't know how much, if any, that has been edited. However, the following evaluation is, in my opinion, quite valid: WOOHOO! Keep'em coming!

Oh, Dumbledore's going to have a miserable year . . .

Aw. You (okay, Liz) didn't tell us what Lily left of Snivellus.

[evil, anticipatory grin] Let the games begin.

You can just see it falling down around DD's ears, can't you?

...and Snivelly's reaction will be made clear next chapter...

Apologies for taking so long to review, so here goes. First off, a heck of a story, and my complments to Golden Seraphim for writing what's here, and will definitely be looking forward to the next part, and the discussion. I find myself agreeing about Molly, and while it's no ones real fault, I agree that she would end up causing a huge rift if she couldn't keep herself under control. Glad to see that this isn't looking like Ron/Herms, but maybe Harry and Herms, and hoping that with the discussion, that things will finally be made a bit more clear, and that the Headmaster will doggone get out of the way, because I imagine the Potter train will not stop for anyone. Glad to see that this Lilly is as viscious as can be, and hope that Severus will learn something from this, though I'm doubtful.

I'm delighted to see that you have adopted this story - I have often wondered what happened to it.
One question - in the original, Snivelus turns right around and betrays the Potters again. I always wondered if that was a logical thing for the character to do. I can see both sides of the argument.
I guess I'll have to wait and see!

Oooookay. Now send the next chapter. And after that, I am going to bug you to update.

Yay to James and Lily. Their visits to Hogwarts, and especially Lily's visit with Snape was a wonderful read. The Manipulative!Dumbledore in this story is just incredible, and I love the way they're dealing with him.

It's going to be Very Very Bad for Albus DumbAsADoor, as *all* the Order (yes; *including* Snape) was *already* pissed with him (Lily is NOT aware that everything Snape did to Harry can be laid directly on Dumbledore), so I wonder how she will react when she realizes *that*. (That was why the Greasy Git turned paler than Peeves when Lily showed up in the dungeon; he Really Did Not Know!) That wasn't covered in the original eight chapters, either (though Snape's reaction to the unraveling of Albus' Machinations was choice). While Snape did some Rather Nasty Things, the Potions Master is actually almost as big a victim as Harry (and a bigger one than the Potters; Snape was deliberately led to believe he had contributed to two murders).

That was a rough beginning to this chapter. At least Lily was able to get past the confundus charms that were giving her trouble. I am glad that she saw Harry's memories. It saves a lot of time and heartache that "telling the story" would entail. At least they have a united front to present to Dumbledore. I am glad that Lily was able to show Snape those memories. I hope that caused him a lot of pain. Torture is torture and it should never happen. Thank you for agreeing to continue this story. I understand the first 8 chapters are from the original author. I look forward to that and what you plan to do with the rest of the story. pms

Aah, mischief within the light. I love this story

Absolutely adore this version of Lily - she's so tough and strong but still so like the canon version.

James13 posted a comment on Thursday 24th May 2007 4:58pm

wohoo, it's starting to heat up!

This is the first fic where I've read that the Potters escaped death and it's interesting to see how it pans out.

I hope you do finish this fic with the same flair it started with....

A very sweet and very interesting family reunion. Now comes the time for redress, restitution, retribution! Revenge! Ha Ha ha ha hum huc hack hack cough. Excuse me. Hairball.

How often have I wished someone would do something like that to Snivellus? Snape should have gone to Azkaban. He only turned to Dumbledore's service when he realized his fun wasn't going to last. he's as unrepentant as Lucius.

James' dealing with Dumbledmort is not as direct, but I suppose a master manipulator like Dumblemort needs a subtle touch. I especially liked the: "Lemon drop?"

I agree completely with Remus' assessment of Molly wWeasley.

Oopsey. Lils, one should make sure the wall you're taking down isn't a LOAD BEARING one!

I'm not certain, but I think the master manipulator is about to go under to a handful of extremely talented amateur ones. What's that adage? Oh yes. "There is no problem so complex that it cannot be solved through the liberal application of firepower."

Until the next update... Alorkin

*laughs* I don't think Dumbles knows what he's in for, even after what James and Lily did upon their return to Hogwarts. It should be "interesting" to see how he takes it. It should be even more interesting to see if all these events knock Severus off the fence and on which side he lands.

O the cliff the cliff I can't wait to see what you do with this. Keep it comming.

I'm coming to rely upon a "chapter a day" from this entertaining story. To reliant, I'm afraid. I hope that once we get to the hand out that things won't slow down too much (though I'd be rather hypocritical to complain).

Kinsfire replied:

Well, my wife is looking at Chapters 8 and 9, so with luck, I might be able to keep this pace up until Chapter 10.

One can hope, at least.
