This is a full-length Book Seven fic. Cliffhangers and unexpected twists abound, but don't look for beloved characters to die tragically before your very eyes--Fawkes_07 is all about redemption. Written for young readers but hopefully fun for all.
I'm printing out a version for my kids in book format--I even found all the right fonts and everything. Hence the "artwork" in the chapter headings. What can I say, I'm more of a ceramics person than a drawing person.
Can I note with pride that "Heirs of Slytherin" was just chosen as a Featured Story on MNFF? *glows*

Someone who really, REALLY ought to be doing something else, but just keeps on writing.
Wondering why my stories take forever? Have a look at My Other Time Devourer: www.willametteartcenter.com I'm both the webmaster and the president of the Friends of the Visual Arts, a 501-C3 nonprofit in Salem, Oregon. We Put The Fun Back In Art.
Having 2 sweet little boys tends to drag things out too.
And what the heck, as long as it's self-pimpage time: If you just can't wait for the next chapter of Fair Ex, you can always go buy my book. It's not HP or fanfic but it's got that Fawkesy snark (in spades) It's here: www.turondo.com Warning: there's a bad word in the title.

Thank you! I liked it better, too. But I'm biased.
I definitely prefer your version of everything!
AAGGHHH Evil cliffhanger! No fair! Loving this story by the way. It is beyond excellent! If you aren't a published writer of your own you should be!!!Missy
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)

EEEWWW Voldy kisses!!!!!
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
inorite? blegh!
Oh man, I am so jealous of Harry! To fly with Fawkes would be heaven! LOL I am also jealous of your fantastic storytelling!

Am I right in thinking the green lights were where the DE tried to hex the house but the protective spells just absorbed them and as the protective layer faded away it released the dark and they finally took effect??
Missy/LovesRickman
YAY!!!!!! I don't think I mentioned it in the chapter, but I cracked up when Siri tossed the pear back out and nailed poor Remus!
Missy
Rabid Irish Setters has GOT to be the best description of the terror twins I have seen! Loved the wedding!
Missy
i would be interested in getting a printed version of this in full colour. can you possibly let me know how?
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
Thank you! You bet! Except just to be 100% clear, only the cover is in color--just like the "real" HP books. I'll PM you with details.
There's so much that I love about this version of book 7. You obviously did a lot of reading of essays and THINKING before you wrote this, for you tie together the background story and plot threads of the series incredibly well, much better than JKR did.I think there's potentially a lot to explore in terms of the adult aspects of this story. Do you see Sirius and Remus as ever having been lovers in this universe? Could Remus be with both Tonks and Sirius?
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
Thanks! I did read a lot of essays and think a lot about the loose ends, particularly the whole Missing 24 Hours aspect. I just knew JKR wasn't going to tie things up, which is why I started writing it (about a year before DH came out). I also thought it would be awesome if wizards were descended from Tolkien's elves, hence the crossover. Because this was written for my kids, I didn't fiddle with adult themes but boy, if I were to write fanfic about "Heirs," it would have some intense pairings going on. ;-)
That was an awesome story. Thanks for giving us the pleasure of reading it!
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
awwwww, thanks!
That nasty old toad! It certainly explains why she hated Harry so much.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
And why she so had it in for Trelawney and Hagrid.
Could that have been Elrond? Half-Elven? Yay, Sirius saves the day! But where's Draco?
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
Bing! You got it!
Draco with a tan instead of pasty white skin, mmmm. And I just love Lupin, he kicks ass as the new Order leader.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
I always thought he had more ass-kicking potential than he showed...
Dumbledore?!? I didn't see that one coming!
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
WOHOO! That was the point. I thought he needed to be dirtier.
Ouch! The truth really hurts, but he really did need to hear it, I think.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
Yah, I always thought Dumbledore was a little too kindly and squeaky clean in the other books--I thought he might have some ulterior motives going on.
Wow, what a shocker for Harry - this will definitely test the limits of his tolerance. And this storyline sounds very familar, something like another of your stories. I wonder if it is an alternate universe of that other story or just a different part of the timeline. It's been too long since I read the other story for me to remember.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
*giggle* I like to do a little bit of pseudo-overlap among my fics, but just for silliness.
That was very sweet! I hope his heart doesn't get broken. I'm wondering if that yellow curse in Sirius' head is somehow related to the spell they performed on Harry as a baby, or if it's something related to the modifying of his memory.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
I think everyone's wondering about that yellow curse at this point in the story.
Ha! I was so disappointed at the end of DH that the WW hadn't learned from their mistakes and stopped the sorting. I'm glad to see your world is going to be a bit smarter."A traitor walks the earth." Hmmm. I wonder *which* traitor the hat was speaking of?
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
Yeah, there are quite a few traitors it can choose from, huh?
Bleh, I suddenly feel the need to gargle some peroxide. What a lot of subplots have suddenly sprouted! I hope I can keep track of them all until I manage to read through all these chapters. Thank goodness it's a long holiday weekend.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
gargle with peroxide?? do subplots make you feel unclean? If so, why the heck are you reading MY stories, dude?! ;)
Response from Riposto (Reviewer)
The thought of Voldemort's forked tongue in my mouth makes me feel unclean! The subplots I like, though.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
ooooooh, yeah. I forgot how that chapter ended. Yeah, mouthwash is in order, now that ya mention it.
Devilspawn, ha ha! That was funny. Glad Lupin got his courage back, but I suppose a few moments of despair are understandable. Clever Harry!
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
*bows* thanks! I just had to have a little comic relief in there, and an irritated demon too small to harm your shoe is just too cute.
I think I could make a guess at who Ondossi's "angel" is... ;) And I'm terribly curious about the dreams that Hermione doesn't want Harry to see, though Harry's love for Hermione, his disbelief that anything he might find in her would change his feelings for her, was very touching. Nice cliffhanger!
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
The Angel: you'll find out in about 34 chapters. Hermy's dreams: I'll just say that it was her dream issue that served as the starting point for Fair Exchanges...
Another thing I missed the first time around - because of course this was originally pre-DH. But now, how cool is that - Voldemort killing his servant with a bite to his neck! Did you have an inside scoop?I like the conflicting hints that you've set up, keeping us guessing as to which side Snape is on. I hadn't read far enough into this story the first time to know, but my money is on the white hats.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
LOL, well, you'll find out in about 34 more chapters. As for inside scoop...how do you think I know so much about the Legilimagi? (j/k)
Ha! I knew it, Tolkien. Good chapter, I'm wondering if Ginny is sorry she got what she asked for.
Response from Fawkes_07 (Author of Harry Potter and the Heirs of Slytherin)
Yeah, I don't know, myself. I would think it would be pretty darn overwhelming to have your boyfriend/pseudo-ex run through your head like that. That's why I envisioned her just needing to run at the end, to unload some of that unformed anxiousness and vulnerability.
