A Fist Full of Galleons
(#) ChiVayne 2009-04-24
"Make the rest of Hogwarts see you as good citizens; trustworthy, open, friendly, and unbiased against mongrels and Mudbloods. "
We know what Harry and his associates feel about Draco and his gang, but do we have any idea of how the other Hogwarts students feel? I'm asking because I wonder how well this would work. Malfoy seems to be quite vocal about his bigotry, but could some of the other Slytherins and the Ravenclaws make this work?A Fist Full of Galleons

Well I thought I had reveiwed this chapter previously but I don't see it so I will say again that I enjoyed the chapter and the story. Somehow I doubt Harry and Snape can restrain the stupid people who wish to indulge in conflict to bolster their petty egos. Still I like to see Harry put the stupid ones in the hospital wing; abit of pain reinforces the lessons for those who have trouble learning in more refined methods. Thanks for writing.

Wonderful way to one-up Dumbles, you know my views on the man, at least maybe you do. Maybe I havent made that clear yet...
In any case, I totally agree, magic and power have lead wizards into laziness and corruption.A Fist Full of Galleons

This is the first I've reviewed this work. Sorry. Firstly that movie reference to Alan Rickman made me wet myself laughing. Secondly, although there are scattered spelling errors, they're not noticeable enough to hurt my enjoyment of this story. Damn good stuff. Keep it up. BTW I grew up on those movies FFOD, & SOLV.A Fist Full of Galleons

"May I borrow your pensieve, Professor?" Harry asked.
Dumbledore blinked at that, and then asked, "For what purpose?"
"I want to show Hermione a memory of Nagini." He turned to Hermione. "Trust me, when you see it, you'll say, 'that's a bloody big snake'!" Dumbledore smiled while Hermione rolled her eyes."
cracks up laughing If most of the descriptions of Nagini I've read are true, she's like an over-grown viper of some kind, perhaps a bamboo viper or one of these lethal exotic species. Certainly even a mutated adder's venom wouldn't be any more powerful, assuming it's still the same venom as normal-sized ones...?A Fist Full of Galleons

Ya! Trusting Snape to do something like that is like trusting an angry Cobra not to bite you! The stupid fool believes in the Pureblood superiority. The Pureblood superiority simply put is breeding yourselves into extinction! Following said ideal means sooner rather then later marrying your first cousin as that's all that'll be left. Killing off the muggle-born, half-bloods and full-bloods means cutting drastically cutting down of your potential gene pool before it can do you any good. The Gaunt family is the perfect example of what the Purebloods expose. So simply give them what they want and withdraw the others from Briton and close it off from the rest of the moronic European Purebloods. Leave them isolated and let the rest of Europe watch as those in Briton rapidly decline and die out. Unfortunately, Fumblewhore and the Ministry won't allow that to happen. Fumbles because he has a prophecy he wants fulfilled. Of course, he doesn't want to get his own hands dirty so he has shifted the responsibility to a child.
