My favorite ship is hp/hg/ll and I am 13 chapters into a story with that theme.
I am sure I have read something similar to this , maybe another version you wrote.. it was quite good, and I am sure this version will be good as well. Hedwig is and always will be one of my favorite characters and JKR did her a terrible disservice by killing her off.
I see a lot of the reviews criticising your Harry for being too powerful too competent too.. you know.
I have no problem with this. Harry finally taking control of his life is not a bad thing.
I will read this story as ling as you post it. I may even read the jewels books to see what that's about..
