I would swear I already read this chapter ... but the previous one was different, before ... good story, great chapter ... but I'm ready to find out how Harry wake up Ginny!

Author's Response: Sorry... you probably did.  This chapter was posted under the title of chapter 26 by mistake, so I replaced 26 with the real 26 once my mistake was pointed out to me.  Again, sorry for the confusion.  If you haven't read the real 26, please go back and check it out.

An irreverent, but in-character parody of the MLC where Snape and Tonks show the Wizarding World what they think about arranged marriages.

So far so good--I don't think I can think of a more unlikely pairing, but they are becoming cute together! LOL  Please update soon?  Please?

Author's Response: Thank you for reviewing!  I'm glad you like the story.  As for that updating bit can I get away with an "I'm working on it"?  I really am... I'm just slooooow.

Hurray!!!!  An update!!!!  This is an amusing little tale ... I can hardly wait for the wedding! LOL!!!

Author's Response: *Laughs*  Thanks!  Personally, I'm dreading writing the wedding because I'm afraid of not meeting people's expectations, so cross your fingers that I can think of lots of nefarious things to add by then!

A Scottish witchling comes of age between two Muggle wars, her father a proud Highland laird, her mother a Muggle-born witch troubled by a dark past. First year Minerva McGonagall looks forward to school with no greater ambition than to make her House Quidditch team and come home for the Christmas holidays to a mother freed of her deep depression. But Minerva's first year will be marred by frustration and grief, as she struggles to help her family and find her place in the wizarding world. She will enjoy the support of friends, but her greatest ally will be the author of a book she found in a dustbin.

Great chapter!  This tale is really starting to spin ... I look forward to more.

Author's Response:

Thanks, Deborah Su, I almost removed this story from the website, since no one was responding (My staunchest fan, Madaline is now reading it on SQ).  But your review makes it all worth it.

 Yay for reviewers!  They are a would-be writer's life's-blood.

Submitted to 2006 HPFF Anniversary 'Orderly Romance' Challenge. Love; a word that can mean life or death in a war. For Marlene McKinnon and Gideon Prewett, it meant death.

Beautifully told ... in a short little one-shot, you got me to care about both of them and to almost feel like I knew them.  My heart ached along with Arx as he knew what he had to do, in order to spare Harmony/Rafe ... and what he must have suffered after that!

---

A branch-off of To Kill a Thief, to get a good sense of who Rafe and Arx are, you need to read it. What might have happened if Bellatrix had never came that fateful day? If Voldemort had never taken an interest in Arx? Would they still have perished bravely? Only time can tell...

I do like the way you're going with this.  Rather than "ruining" the characters, we're having the chance to see what might have happened in a different universe.  Cool! :-)

I'll try to be patient, awaiting updates as you have internet access ... but it'll be hard!!!  A good start to what promises to be an interesting story with a totally different take on many things!
