Good stuff. The lack of action didn't bother me at all. You made this chapter every bit as interesting as the previous ones, and I couldn't ask for more.

Thanks! Now if I can just cover slightly more time rather than using 7 chapters to cover 24 hours.
I am starting chapter 15 tomorrow after I finish chapter 4 of my second story. It's only on ff.net at the moment, but I'll post it here next week. Give it a try and let me know what you think. Its called Bungle in the Jungle: A Harry Potter Adventure. Chapter 3 will be posted next week. End of shameless plug.
Its going to be an interesting chapter 15. Penny appears at #12, Dumbles and Harry "have words" and if Susan gets her wish they may indeed have a little "aura tuning"
Happy reading,
Jim
