Harry Potter and the Nightmares of Futures Past

Otherwise known as "overpaid, oversexed, and over here"!!!
It's been ages since your last update. How's 36coming? I'm really enjoying this story, and can't wait to see where you are going with it...
If you check my blog, you'll see that the next chapter has been completed and is currently with the final beta:
Poor Augusta Longbottom! She thought that She'd cow Neville by sending him a Howler at Hogwarts. UNfortunately for her, Neville grew himself a spine and fired back a Granger Howler (much more powerful than even a Molly Weasley Howler) that detonated in her tea! I think the Stebbins (mother and son) will stop their meddling for at least a while.
Thank You!
I feel that the comments in the authors notes of this chapter are excellent.
I love the way this story is evolving.

Very good.

I really, reallyyyyy like this story. Take your time with the updates, as long as eventually you do update.
I think my favorite thing is the fact that the timeline is really changing and that it isnt as if Harry can guess every single thing...and I'm glad he's learned not to trust foreknowledge
either.
The Neville situation is really interesting, seeing as Augusta was ALOT more nicer and understanding the first time around...then again, Neville wasnt friends with Luna.
Anyways, awesome story, and its different than all those other stories I've seen with similiar plot.
I started reading this over on fanficdotnet until I realized you were on here, where I much prefer reading. This was recommended to me some time ago, but for whatever reason I'd not gotten around
to reading it before. Frankly, I am extremely glad I did. You have a most interesting story arc going here. I am impressed with the way you have worked in Harry's future history with little snippets
here and there to tell the story, very effective. The subtle and not so subtle bits of humor here and there break up the drama quite nicely. I think most of all, at least in the last couple of
chapters is how you have handled Neville and his budding relationship with his friend Luna. He is truly a Gryffie as you have written him in this latest chapter, so naturally I was mortified to
realize this I have to wait to read how he handles Augusta. A very nicley done story and fun to read, looking forward to more. Thanks for sharing your vision and talent.

Very Good Chapter. I have read around 200+ fanfics and this is my favorite, looking forward to the next chapter
What wonderful writing. I am truly impressed with how you turned an unoriginal plot line (Harry given a second chance) into such a unique story. This is one of the best fanfiction stories I have ever read. Keep up the good work.
That was fun...
Keep it up! :)
Excellent story, and I'm looking forward to the next update. Peace, love and dope!
Oh, lovely! I'm so glad I stopped in to check if there'd been an update!
I must confess, I have this strange idea of Gryffindor and Slytherin joining in secret to play prank the rest of the school, especially targetting Hufflepuff at the moment. It would build a
relationship between the two houses that isn't one of hate or loathing, and could quite possibly change the fate of several Slytherin members.
That said, I can only imagine what Minerva was remembering when she saw Harry's smile. What would Mooney have said if he saw it, too? [grinning]
I had wondered if that was how you were going to handle the bogart this time, but *damn*. Harry's lucky he didn't blow a whole *through* the stonework. Or should that be Dobby who's lucky? ^__^ I
couldn't remember at first if Remus knew about Harry's second past, but figured it out quite quickly. Still, is Harry planning on telling the wolf anytime soon? or is he just waiting for the right
moment?
I really enjoyed seeing Neville stepping into his own. The bludgers were amusing, but the steps he took with his gram are good. Honorable? Right, maybe. or Mature. Yeah. I feel all proud of him.
:)
Again, nice bit. I look forward to reading more of this story in the future! Heck, I might just have to bite the bullet and reread it again sometime.
Very Good, like the progress with Remus and MM's influence on Albus' opinion of Harry
hi i have just caught up on your story, a friend said it was very good and she was right. i look forward to your next update.
Excellent story, you have struck a nice balance between canon events and how this branches. To many authors make huge changes to canon and then don't really change how events happen. I always like
to see a more confident Neville and the Howler was priceless. While I know they are basically the canon ships
I do have some problems with H/G Hr/R. Largely that I think Hermione and Ron are so different with really the only thing that they have in common is Harry that without him as a buffer the
relationship would implode. H/G is actually a nice pairing but am I the only one a bit disturbed by how similar the actresses that played Lily and Ginny are? I know this pairing works out nice and
even but... Though I do have to say I have always been a fan of N/L. In the end those are just my feelings about those ships and not the story.
I agree in all ways with your explantion of the AEF. Most people don't have look to when WWII occured that the Candian force was not that stong and Austraila forces never even fought in the European Front. Many people need to realize, like you said, whenever either the US or Britian is in need of help the other will be right beside them.
Very good. I quite liked this chapter, though it took a while for me to convince myself to read it. Oh. I can't help for harry and co to truly develop magic, compared to what they are doing now.
I can't get enough of this interesting story . It's has changed considerably from the original. It's great. Hope the next chapter is coming along . Thank you.
"This has gone utterly pear-shaped." A singularly acute observation, Mr. Potter; it appears you have some 'splainin' to do.
I've always liked the "hoofbeats of a zebra" metaphor; figures it would come from Hermione's father, since dentistry is a medical profession. Hermione's got a point, too: Harry's worried about someone guessing the truth because he already knows it's possible, but it's not likely to occur to anyone else, with the remotely possible exception of Dumbledore. The professor Harry should be worried about is Trelawney, actually -- she might just prophesy something that would give Dumbledore a real hint one of these days.
Was the "bloke from Wisconsin" E. Gary Gygax, by any chance?
Neville's counter-Howler was awesome -- the idea of writing a civil, dignified rebuke into a Howler is brilliant. Knowing how clever Hedwig is, I wouldn't be surprised if Harry specifically asked her to deliver it in front of Madam Stebbins, too.
