not sure, either way as of yet... many people try and write the 'twin' story but end up giving up on its... so i am not expecting much. anyway, whilst i don't like the idea of Hope being blind, i can see how she can 'see' other things. nevertheless it is odd.
i would have liked Minnie to be a bit more forceful, especially after she first hand witnessed what the twin are put through.
btw, i can just see Draco making a remark about how Hope should have been 'put down' because of her deformity. - his words not mine....
anyway, i reserve my judgement, but not bad, i look forward to see where you take it...Author's response
Have you read 'Compensations?' That kind of explains to blindness thing--I was trying not to write a Super Harry(/Hope) story. Notice that McGonagall didn't witness it first hand. She could definitely tell that the Dursleys disliked the twins, but that might have been because the twins replied to the letter themselves, without asking them first. Dumbledore probably overstated the need for protection an warned her about how the Dursleys didn't like magic because it had gotten Lily killed, so they wouldn't be to hot about the idea 'at first'.
I think I'll use the 'put down' thing (I'l probably use 'should have been drowned at birth')--and I'll make sure to note that you said it first.
Thanks for the review!Light of Hope

Well, that wasn't much of a dressing down. It will be interesting to see if McGonagall brings them back and abandons them to the Dursleys temper, as Dumbledore seemed to in canon or not.

I may revise that--and I'll hold judgment on whether or not she'll leave 'them' there.

I like it, I'm a fan of the Harry has a twin sister stories. I would like to see the Dursleys yelled at a bit more because otherwise they get off with less than from Hagrid who scared the crap out of them and gave Dudley a pig tail.Author's response
McGonagall's pretty imposing even without the pigs tail--though I'm not saying that ickle Didders will never have an extra appendage... I'll probably revise it so McGonagall gets a bit more scolding time.
Thanks for the review!
