I am glad that the two are now officially dating. They complement each other wonderfully. Sirius is working hard to find them and to ensure that Ginny, Harry, and he himself will be relieved. I hope that he is successful soon.
Ah - yes, Urquhart Castle is really a picturesque, historical place. I like the idea that I have visited the same place as the both of them.
I wonder about Snape's intentions. He should know what really happened. Why he's hiding things? We will see...

... and before I forget: great instalment, thank you!

Author's Response: Thank you! I didn't want to drag out their courtship too long. I hope to one day get to Great Britain and see some of the sights I've written about and only seen on line! :)

Nothing will be easy for here on out, but sirusi I would have thought got an idea to check the underground for Harry and Ginny.....kutgw

Author's Response: Sirius will eventually be on the right trail, but it won't be right away. You are right, nothing will be easy :)

It's easy to forget but this story is supposed to take place in the mid 90's, not right now. In the mid 90's the internet was still rather new. In fact, web browsing didn't become the biggest part of internet traffic until 1995. As for a child doing all of their schoolwork on a computer, that is possible as far as word processing goes but internet research wouldn't have been anything like it is now.

It's nice to see Ron making friends with Neville. Sometimes Hermione has too much respect for authority and is too stubborn. I'm hoping that she'll eventually come around.

I'm a little surprised that Voldemort would not try a plan that he would get so upset about. He wouldn't need to know where Harry was to send him a vision and he ought to know that. The only thing I can think of is that he isn't sure who to use as the bait since he'd have to be sure to use someone that Harry wouldn't know is safe.

As for Harry and Ginny, you were right I did like this chapter. It took him a while but I'm glad he got there. You even had them sleep together again. For a moment there I thought you were going to have one of the Campbells catch them together. That would have made an interesting scene. He does need to figure out that Ginny would like to hear what he thinks about her short skirts and the high heels. Harry's trip down the "Women's Health aisle" was amusing. I remember the first time I had to buy such things for my wife. I thought everybody would be staring at me wondering what I was up to.

I'm a little surprised they wouldn't try to send something by owl to Sirius. As long as the owl isn't traceable to them, it would be safe. Unfortunately, even that would be one way.

I don't read other reviews until I've done my own. I just hope those that read chapters ahead elsewhere will be careful about spoilers.

Author's Response: Thanks for the review. I did think about the internet and know that it was very new in the 90s. As far as the homework comment, I did mean the word processing work. I know I did all of my major papers and all on the computer and I graduated high school in the 80s. I just had him go out on the internet to see what was available - I remember when I was getting ready to adopt my oldest son in 1997 I was able to find most of the info I needed on line, though certainly not as easily as it would have been today. I think Ron and Neville really compliment each other. Ron is a bit hot headed and Neville is so calm and easy going. Hermione is a bit stubborn, but she's been friends with Harry for a long time so I wouldn't think she would hold out forever. I thought of you when I reread the chapter and realized I had them sleeping together once again :) The "Women's Health aisle" I thought was funny - my husband did really well when my daughter called and asked him to pick up supplies for her - I imagine Harry would be able to do that some day. Glad you are enjoying the story!

At this moment in time, I actually think Harry and Ginny are doing better than everybody else. Good storyline.

Author's Response: Thanks!

Just read the fifth chapter. Very good. It is true that Ginny would have difficulty in a muggle school for kids her age. The subject material is vastly different from the magical world. They learn sciences, maths and literature; things that a person needs in everyday life while Hogwarts teaches how to control and learn magic. The magical world relies on parents to teach their children the basics of reading, writing, and maths, so they only have a basic knowledge of such things. Ginny also does not have the social skills of girls in the muggle world of the 20Th century. She would have a hard time fitting in and relate to other girls since she grew up in a house full of boys. I am so happy to see them get so close and more happy that Sirius was cleared. Cannot wait to see how they adjust to muggle life. Hope to read more soon!

Author's Response: Ginny does have a huge learning curve, but she is smart. She would have a hard time relating to other young people in many ways so that might be reflected :)

Just a nitpick...none of the Scottish notes have the Queen on them. Other than that, superbly well written, and I'm really enjoying the story thus far.

Author's Response: Oops, sorry about that. Thanks for the review.
