Independence Day

"Hagrid had already told me that every bad wizard was from Slytherin, I guess he must have forgotten about Pettigrew, he was a Gryff"
Do I really need to point out that nobody except Sirius knew Peter was bad? How would Hagrid of all people know something like that.Independence Day

Anotheer fine chapter. Harry is nicely furious with Dumbles and his machinations. I would haave thought that when Harry confronted him, ol' Albie would have had some kind of evasion or lie on hand to distract, rather than panicking and attempting to flee. He's usually a bit smoother than that.
Ginny is disappointed, but appears to be taking it much better than Ron.
Although Tonks is trying to settle the 'blood quill' issue through the law, one can only expect that with Fudge's involvement, Umbitch will go unpunished. Likely a better idea would be to have Harry give a series of statements to the newspapers. Not 'The Prophet', of course, as that rag is firmly under the minister's control, but mayhaps the Qubbler. Given it's surge in popularity following Harry's description of the events in Little Hangleton the previous year, word would spread before Fudge&Co. could interfere.
I was ratthr surprised thattDraky would have th intetinal forttitude to atacck Harry, himself. Normally he uses others to do his dirtywork. Of course, his newfound status as a death eater could account for that.
Harry's decision to rub the Dursleys'
noses in his wealth, is childish, but understandable.
I especially liked the classic line: "This pervert touched me up!" The broken fingers were a nice touch, too.
As always, I eagerly await the next page of 'Independence Day' AlorkinIndependence Day

I'm happy that Ginny and Ron are happy that Harry and Hermione are together.
The ass give Fudge and Snape, money from Harry's volts.
Cool, Harry as got a limo, that pisses off Vernon... :D Vernon and Dudley got arrested. :D
So until next time, keep up the great work and update soon.Independence Day

Running out of water on an island is ironic. This fic however is cleverly written with original material that brings a refreshing bit to a cliche genre. I hope you keep the updates coming and good luck with the fic.Independence Day

nice ideas: the lunch at the leaky cauldron and the visit to the dursleys definitely are least used than so many more open confrontations between harry and friends and family after a will reading in other stories....Independence Day

The number of things for which Dumbledore will be held accountable continues to grow. I am sure a suitable response is in the works. The limo at Privet Drive was a nice scene all around. Hermione should have gone for the football punt, or perhaps her mother could have shown her the 'correct' technique after she didn't quite get it right. And several practice swings to make sure she has it down.
