I was just reading your reviews, and i noticed the one that castigated you about the spelling of legilimency or whatever.
Forget him...but just for reference, i'm pretty damn sure JK doesn't use the words in the book. She uses 'legilimency' and 'occlumency', but she never gives a term for those that practice the mind arts. While you could obviously stick with 'legilimencer' like you have in previous chapters, i've seen 'legilimens' and 'occlumens' used quite commonly in the HP fandom to give a title to the people that use the two skills.
I'm eagerly waiting for the next chapter, though i have to express some disappointment about the animagus form. THe whole dragon/phoenix/basilisk/panther idea has been used so much, it would have been refreshing to see a new form.
Then again, i have full faith that you will use this form to it's full capacuty, and not just make it a cool party trick for Harry to have.
"Oh guys...check it out!"
poof Harry becomes a dragon.

I realize that not many animagus forms are really that intimidating, or cool, which is why people often fall back on the above forms. It's sad, but making up animals usually fails pretty badly.
Good luck with writing, and i hope to read the next chap. BTW, your fic has a thread on DLP, i noticed you're a member there. It's in the library section under 'general'.
Peace.
Author\'s Response: Yeah, I chose this form for a specific reason...which I am not going to tell you (I'd ruin the story, don't cha know). Also, can you imagin someone who had all the magic contained in a philosopher's stone to be something normal? A goose, maybe? I argued with myself about the clishe-ness for a while before I gave in (at least he's not a pheonix, eh?).I suppose you posted this before I put up a post on DLP. Thanks for the heads up anyway. -

This was a really good story. I liked how there was so much humor mixed in with the drama. Killing the Dursley's with dragon dung has got to be one of the best ways I've ever heard. The only issue I found in the entire story was spelling and even that wasn't enough to distract from my enjoyment.Author's response

Okay I just finished re-reading this thing and can I just say 'Dude Who the he!! is your supplier?' Cause that must be some killer sh!t you be getting into before writing each chapter.
Sirius-ly though it was a kick ass story. I hope to see another from you. -

I like this story. I wish it was longer and dealt with more, but it is a very satisfying read. I can also picture your Harry releasing a list of his female conquests just for the hell of it.
