hmm, i was disappointed with the last few chapters, i think that particular back story was pointless, also it was too american to really fit in with the characters, also, a corsa? you picked the worst car ever there, a vw golf would be more appropriate, corsas are driven by brainless kids who cause the majority of road accidents in britain, sory but i hate vauxhall, thheir cars suck
Author's Response: *shrug* I had asked a frined of mine in Great Britain, and he suggested a Corsa. I've never been over there.

You've packed quite a lot into just this one chapter. Even though I haven''t read Parts I & II, I was able to follow the tragedy of the recent chapters--what the four students had done to Snape and how it affected Aurelia Deveroux (well, admittedly the chapter summaries helped.) It's an intriguing premise--Snape's dual nature and his rival, an elf DA teacher. (But then, I've personally always thought Flitwick was half-goblin.)
You write clearly and logically and have a deft touch with dialog. It flows naturally. And you don't use the same tired old phrases. I particularly like:
"They were feasting on humble pie instead."
The reference to Snape's "bat cave" and Black Lotus Nacre.
..."fractured rays of sunlight..."
And Sirius' remarks about Snape:
"...who hasn't that greasy haired git managed to splinch off at one time or another?"
"...it'll be a bright, sunny day in Azkaban before I ever forgive him for what he tried to do to me."
I do have a little trouble with your characterizations of Dumbledore and Dung Fletcher. I don't think Dumbledore would tell the entire student body so much about the ambush of Snape--even if it is only a ruse. It just doesn't fit the student-teacher relationship. And Dung is way too literate and caring, but otherwise, a very nice story.
I wonder what's going to happen with Karkaroff. There are lots of vampires in Rumania....hmmmm...
Author's Response: Thank you! This has been a long labor of love for my co-author and I. Dung -- I agree wholeheartedly, he is definately OOC here. However, keep in mind: much of this was written/outlined before even OoTP came out, and we really didn't know Dung Fletcher. He's such a minor part of the story that we decided to leave this alone. As for Dumbledore, I think he had to say something about Snape's disappearance. He did tell the students what happened to Diggory at the end of GoF -- so I think he might warn the students about the dangers out there. Too many questions would be raised otherwise. Again, thanks! Your feedback is appreciated.
