what a sweet heart warming chapter!

Lovely story of the circle of life and beyond! Absolutely uplifting, and delicious usage and intertwining of characters and plot and magic circles!

Lovely chapter-- all the energy and concentration and expectations for Walpurgis Night -- great stuff! Love Luna being the medium between Harry and the others -especially Bill!;-D

Bill and Charlie would be *lovely* together, and I'm completely gaga for Luna & Draco's ship, you capture it so powerfully/precisely with just a look or comment-- it's so nice to see a happy Draco --and Luna is sooo perfect for the formery angst-out Slytherin. Your Patronus scene gave me goosebumps, literally, what could that mean--they're all so potent and perfect, they're coming across the PC screen!As always. great chapter!

Sirius will stay in the in-between wasteland indefinitely - hehe! Love the dinner table conversation and the openness of discussion of trust, manifested sexualy, metally, etc. between them. Yes, Severus' is definitely the type to think about it -- deeply, intricately, mutually satisfactorily it'll be-- lucky Katie!

Love the revelation about Lily being an Unspeakable and her abilities with shields, potions and ancient magic; yea! Bill will be able to slowly heal! Perhaps the edrly Malfoys will participate for a full-circle calling power ritual? They do seem very bonded to one another; also love that Hogwarts (from the last chapter inclusion) is a lady and that's she's glowing from all the Light magic & energy within her walls!

I love the unity of energy brought together to destroy the ward- I also have this overwhelming soft, warm feeling (thanks to you, blue!) regarding the Weasleys, in particular, the more obscure ones-- Charlie and now -- poor Bill-- hope he is not terminal but that they've got to him in the nick of time!

Another succulent chapter highlighting all these wonderful ships-- Molly was returned, in one piece, damaged but her sanity in tact -- and arthur Weasley-- heart of gold -- thank you! In Dumbledore's Hubris- yes, it struck a real revolting chord her fate with Crabbe. Hmmn, these magical emanations -- Light or Dark at its source? Must read on!

Love, love, love the banter between the five of them-- enjoying the bumbling duo that is James and Sirius-- so nice to see Remus and Lily standing up to those self-centered, selfish morons, and am excited for Harry to get back to the land of the living -- House-elves to the rescue -- yea, Dobby! And Kreacher will play a vital part? Dumbles being stumped once and for all -- Brilliant!

Squeee! So happy to catch up a bit and happy your sequel is posted - again, I love the myriad of characters and ships (Katie & Sev - brilliant!), and look forward to this adventure- Hermione is already up to her ears with some intriguing challenges, and am fascinated by Harry's predicament - love the inclusion of those 'beyond the veil' - and yes, Sirius is an idiot - thanks for that!
