  Thanx, Red,
  Every story needs a keystone chapter, one to add a little momentum, as it were.
  This was it.

  Thanx, DJ.
  I'm having fun writing this and that's usually a good sign.

  Excellent chapter and I do like the way you are adding people slowly and not in one big rush. It allows everyone a chance to shine and the reader a chance to get to know the character.

  Author's response

  Thanx, Jump,
  You know, I've left out some of the most important characters in the story?
  The familiars.
  Hedwig, Crookshanks, and what will Luna have for a familiar?
  Gotta fix this, fast!

  Well, most excellent indeed. First, it was great to see Dumbledore called on his arrogance at last, something that never happened in the canon, but Luna was right, if there can be info on all those other items, then maybe he should have gotten rid of them years ago, even if he wasn't Headmaster, but maybe couldn't because that was illegal, and he wasn't as above the law as he wanted to be. Glad to see that scum Slug get taken down as well, and no matter what, he was almost as bad as Albus in hiding things because of his own greed and cowardice. Can agree about Tom's life in an orphanage in the '30's. Loved the little moment with the twins, and can just see them chatting later on and Parvati demanding to get in on some of that action, and Padma having to defend herself. Great work!

  Author's response

  Thanx, as always, for reading and reviewing.
  Yepper, Dumbles got his bony ass handed to him, by Luna no less!
  You know that was fun to write.
  And she knew exactly how to handle Slughorn, don't you love to see the greedy taken to task?
  As far as the Patil twins, well, let's just say it's a good thing they're in different houses.
  N!

  I think adding the Twins is good but don't go overboard. maybe have the Slytherins girls flock to Neville, and have them as a powerful back up for the Trio plus 2.
  
  As for Ron, Maybe he can be Filch's assistant!
  
  ;-)

  Author's response

  Not to worry, Dennis,
  This is not a Harry!Harem fic.
  I think the Slytherins will most likely flock to Blaise.
  Yep, they'll likely flock him cross eyed. . .
  Sorry, couldn't resist.
  I'll let you in on a little secret; Luna is lining up Padma because she see's a very small probability that both she and Hermione will survive the final confrontation with Riddle and his Death Nibblers.
  She wants to make sure her wizard is cared for in a manner to which he is becoming accustomed. . .
  N!
  
  P.S.
  As far as making Ron Filch's assistant?
  What do you have against Argus Filch, what did he ever do to you?

  personally I would love to see a harem with all of those girls mentioned! and oh yeah nice chapter, but is it just me and my machine or do other people get the blue background when they download the stories from ficwad to their computer too!?! thankfully it dont happen all the time, but still....

  Author's response

  Well, I did write one Harry!Harem fic, "If Wishes were Hippogriffs," also on FicWad.
  As far as the blue background?
  No, not on my machine.

  There was tons of stuff that I just loved about this chapter: the gargoyle named Irving, an cold side to Luna, a seed being planted, Luna's goblin interaction, etc. I've enjoyed this story so much thus far please update as soon as possible.

  Author's response

  Will do, JJ,
  Expect the next chapter nexy Wednesday.

  One small correction I noticed upon a re-reading. It's not "Command in Control center", but rather "Command and Control center". I can see where the confusion came from since it's usually abbreviated "C 'n' C".

  Author's response

  Thanx,
  You know, I knew that, it was just a typo.

  This is good. Very good. I thoroughly enjoyed Luna tearing into Dumbledore like she did and calling him on his vagueries.
  
  Neville and Pansy? Far out! I love it! He's quite confident now that's he's come into his own. I love the whole ivy tattoo thing, too. That's very sweet.
  
  So Ron and Lavender are going to work out? Oh well, as the Ron fan, I guess I'm gratified. You haven't painted him as a complete ass anyway.
  
  Potter's Commandos. That's really hot. The Seals of the DA. Woo hoo! Great Job, Prof! I'm excited to see more.

  Author's response

  Thanx again for reading and reviewing, really, it's the fanfic author's bread and butter - reviews keep us going.
  Sorry for what happens to Ron in Chapter 8, but, hey, he's a typical teenaged male.
  Having been one, I can empathies. . .
  N!
