Another spectacular chapter. It's as though you've got far too much to impart even on this large a scale. Thanks so much for sticking with this story; I can't wait to check out the next installment!

Excellent again. I really liked the reactions to the secret from the Weasley's. I especially thought that Percy and Molly were done accurately!! I also like the way Percy was yet again put in his place, hopefully all this Percy bashing means he won't turn into a complete plank later on!!

Interesting way to bring Sirius back, but your annoying and evil for ur cliffie! I'm not sure whether the cloaked figures are just chasing Sirius or area actually after Harry?!?

The side plot of Neville's gran seems a little strange. From Canon she nevers seems to do much of anything for Neville so I kind of doubt that she would try to find him alternatives instead of Luna. Although it is a very pureblood thing to do I suppose!

Brilliant story though, can't wait for more!!

Monkey!

rather than sit around wasting my time trying to be a normal student."
-too true. One part of JKR's story that makes little to no sense.

The idea of Ron being subtle anywhere outside of the chessboard felt like an utter violation of the natural order, but there it was
-Made me laugh. Nice job with Ron.

Harry imagined that the twins’ numerous disciplinary notices ended up inside the fireplace instead of on the mantle.
-another chuckle.

"She warned me about how, if I was too aggressive or too skilful, it might intimidate boys.
-Sheesh. Do mothers really warn their daughters of this?

Mr. Weasley’s face had gone grim, and Harry supposed he’d done little more than confirm some of his nagging doubts.
-I've said it in previous reviews, but it is still so nice to see a Smart!Mr.Weasley. Usually most fics have the Whipped and Meek versions.

but he supposed his presence had changed things enough that his guardian bought a different ticket this time
-Hey, maybe the Cannons do have chance after all.

Excellent cliff-hanger!

Why was this chapter rated adult?

Very good and quite fluffy chapter. Considering the update intervalls I feel the cliffy is kind of cruel........

Ooooh Dementors! Hum wonder if they can communicate? Awaiting the next chapter for the answers!

Also I still think that you should have broken down your stories, if only for clarity's sake.

Very bad cliffie....

The events are already changing. This will make for an interesting story for third year though I might get headaches from sorting through the timelines and events... ;)

YAY!!!!! I was about to give up on this one. Please keep the updates coming!

That Cliff Hanger brings to mind an image of Harry facing Dementors and a thought bubble comming out of his head and the only word in it is "BUGGER!" or some other choice curse words! Atleast Sirius makes it to Harry before the Dementors catch up, however it comes off as a hellaicous battle is about to ensue (or I can only hope!).

I love this story and as with any good story its extremely well written and flows wonderfully.

Don't change the 'Magic' as it were and keep 'em coming!

What, you don't the cliffhanger in this chapter isn't worthy of some death threats?

OMFG!

Just because the foam isn't necessarily an indication doesn't mean Sirius isn't rabid. He's a VERY mangy dog. :)

Ron has *definitely* changed....for the *different*. He's applying his chess thinking to the outside world (embarrassing not only the twins, but *Percy* into extra Defense lessons?), but proving that he *definitely* has Harry's back (yes, I think the twins are the ones that tried to test Ron's resolve....and lost, and lost badly). *This* Ron has no back-up in him at all....not even from his mum and dad (notice that Ron didn't back down from the chewing-out he got from Arthur). Definitely a different Ron. The changes are somewhat more diffused through the rest of the Weasleys...but with Ron, they are decidedly obvious.

What the heck is going on with Augusta Longbottom? I'd say it's far more than her simple disapproval of Neville's choice of girlfriend. Is there a Riddle Connection? (Not far-fetched at all; remember, Frank and Alice Longbottom were a royal pain in the rear for the Death Eaters during the first campaign, and the DEs *do* hold grudges.)

You're an evil, evil man ;) I feel guilty leaving reviews that don't say what I like, only what I'm curious about. Does liking that you've made me so insanely curious count? ;) I'm dying to know what Mrs. Longbottom has against Luna. And of course this Dementor thing. *ponders* do the wards affect them at all?
Other than that... well, your usual gift with turns of phrase was very active this chapter :)
I do have one question. He said that he wouldn't have to see anyone that day that he had to keep secrets from. What about Remus?

Oh wow. That was pretty awesome. I can't wait to see what you have planned next!

Wow! Intense chapter. Regarding Neville's grandmother... though she is firmly on the side of the 'Light', she is a formidable old women who has extremily high standards. I can see how, from her rather limited point of view, Luna would not be considered an appropriate wife for a young man of her Nevilles social station. Though I think it rather ridiculous to make such a fuss out of any relationship her barely 13 year old grandson may fancy for himself.

I like the responses from the Weasley's regarding the truth about Harry's life, though Mrs. Weasleys continued belief in Dumbledore's benevolence is a bit worrisome. I do look forward to Snapes and Dumbledore's reactions when they realize that ALL local Weasley's are of sound mind... so to speak.

Nice cliffie, by the way. At least this time when Harry uses his wand to defend himself against Dementors it will be with the legal right to do so! I hope he can get Sirius behind the wards in time and that Sirius is not found by any Aurors who may be tracking the movements of the Dementors.
