- Ok, that was wrong. So very wrong.
- The idea of Lily being so slutty and James a real estate salesman are relatively unique... but it's still wrong.
- And the whole 'Dumbles paying people to be Harry's friend' thing. Just wrong.
- This is one funny story.Author's response
Wrong, yes. But still fun to write.Fortunate Son

Yeah I liked it too - normally too out there for me, but for some reason it was reasonable enough to be funny.Fortunate Son

Heh, very unique and so very, very wrong. If by "Boca" you mean Boca Raton, FL, that town's been involved in so many real estate scams that you have to wonder if what James is selling is legal property (would you buy property in a town whose name translates to "Mouth of the Rat"? Now, I could see Pettigrew doing that with no problem).
'Tis quite the amusing twist, though.Author's response
I had no idea there are real estate issues there. I just thought it'd be hilarious if James was doing something totally normal in another part of the world when Harry's spent so much time being angsty about his parents' deaths.Fortunate Son

I'm very amused.
You've taken some of the standard tropes (James not really Harry's father, manipulative Dumbledore, Harry having family he's never been able/allowed to contact...), given them a twist, and come out with something that's very wrong in the best sort of way.
Nicely done!Fortunate Son

Gah! That's an image I'll never be able to get out of my head. >.<
I can see some potential in this story, however, even though you may have meant it as a one-shot. :PFortunate Son

The concept is not that unique, but its fresh, I'll give you that....anything else..........I think there is yet to exist a proper word to say how wrong this is....it may take a few hundred of years to exist but it will some day.....Fortunate Son
