The Younger Potter Twin
(#) Nautilus 2006-11-28
sweet as. so more people know about Harry now. nice to see that they were able to look past everything and accept Harry. Still they now know that they have lost a son, so that should be difficult. i would have liked to see a little sister for Harry and James, but she was killed off. Any chance of another.
i don't mind the Harry/Lily or Harry/Ellen relationships so far. they see friendly enough and they have a close bond. Its good to see Harry acknowledge that he might have changed that future. I read so many fics, where Harry is hell bent on getting James and Lily together, its become stupid. I guess this way Lily is allowed to make her own decisions. and so far james doesn't seem to be all the attracted to Lily (well they are 11). i would have liked to see a furious Harry, when james and Sirius pulled that little stunt earlier, but i guess what you did was okay.
anyway, update soon. congrats.Author's response
Little sister Holly will be along in a year.
I think James/Lily is a lot like Ron/Hermione, except James pulls stunts instead of arguing.

You are still in top form there Doc. I enjoyed the chapter and the awareness of the elder Potters. I can't wait for the school year to begin. I loved the part about Petunia, Brilliant!The Younger Potter Twin

Good fun with Petunia's present!
Mary stating her hope that Harry doesn't 'get together' with his mother made me think a little. Weird how part of me wants to start looking for signs of romance between Harry and his friends ... when they're only eleven years old!! And I'm the one who usually complains - or goes Ewwww - when you have them perform sexual acts at 15 or 16 years of age! I hereby retract my slight push to have Harry be attracted to either Diana (who's out of the running anyway, from what you presented in this chapter) or Lily. :-)
Interesting small mystery about the fate of the Potter parents in the original (and maybe this) timeline.The Younger Potter Twin

noylj--the horcrux idea is a good one, but no canon character would have both the common sense and experience to think of it!
