Another nice chapter, I particularly enjoyed Dumbledore being abused a bit. After all he condones it on others, and feels outrage when it is returned on to him. I would think Albus could easily be considered a Dark Idiot if not a dark lord given his methods in this one.
Nice job of using several of the tried and true methods of aiding Harry in the canon verse, most of them were used by you in other stories, and the others are classic genres of fan fiction.
Keep up the good work with this one.
Thanks for writing,
Matt
