Reviewer: MollyandArthur Signed Date: 2015.12.13 - 07:07PM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon Hopefully this is a turning point for Albus. Where is Ginny? Looking forward to seeing her again.

Reviewer: hot48cricket Signed Date: 2013.02.08 - 02:21PM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon Dumbledore is a fool....I hope he gets his cumupance real soon! Reviewer: Emlyn Signed Date: 2013.02.08 - 12:06PM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon Why do I have the ugly feeling that Dumbledore engineered Harry getting kidnapped by Pettigrew? Perhaps in an effort to get the Flamels out of the way? He definitely needed to hear what Ariana had to say, unfortunately I have I feeling he didn't hear a word. Reviewer: ProfessorBinns79 Signed Date: 2013.02.08 - 12:27AM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon I am loving this story as I have loved all of your stories. I do have a question, though. It is not a loaded question -- I will continue to enjoy the story no matter your answer -- but I am curious: Is the depiction of Dumbledore in this story your "head canon" characterization, a direct result of other changes in the story, or an alternate universe element of this story that you chose as part of your premise? With most authors I can tell if they're "anti" a particular character or just exploring an interesting idea, but since Dumbledore never appeared in "The List" or "The Oath" I wasn't sure in your case. Reviewer: dshadel Signed Date: 2013.02.07 - 07:39PM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon Good chapter. Never really been a fan of Dumbledore and your version makes me like him less. Can't wait for the next chapter. Reviewer: DukeBrymin Signed Date: 2013.02.07 - 03:35PM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon Perhaps he'll take Ariana's rejection as an opportunity to grow up a little. Reviewer: Mistress_Lrigtar Signed Date: 2013.02.07 - 01:15PM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon Your story is bringing to light all these inconsistencies with Dumbledore in canon I had never really thought of. For example, why did he wait so long to bring Grindewald down and why did he allow Voldemort to even rise to power? It seems he had to know Voldemort was up to no good from the very beginning, so why not nip it in the bud before he can blossom into evil incarnate? And now he's worried about Harry turning dark? He'll have no one to blame for that other than himself. Dumbledore's use of the Resurrection Stone made me think of the instances that Harry has missed out on seeing his parents - the mirror of Erised and more importantly that time in the graveyard at Little Hangleton. I think that time specifically affected Harry profoundly as it was concrete evidence that his parents loved and cared for him, and more importantly, even in death were there for him. I realize that the Flamels were a nice substitute, and Perenelle also loved, cared, and gave her life for him, but I think in order for Harry to be the well-rounded and emotionally stable person he becomes he needs to have a closer connection to his parents, as well. I hope his time spent with Sirius and Lupin can provide a bit of that. I also hope he sees Ginny again soon because I'm dying to read about their next encounter. Thanks for the shout out. If I can be of any further assistance with the HTML issue, just let me know! I have a handy- dandy cheat sheet I refer to that covers all the basics needed for posting on this site:) Author's Response: I’m convinced that in canon Dumbledore could have done so much more to prevent the rise of Grindelwald and Voldemort. Dumbledore admits in DH that he delayed going after Grindelwald because he feared to know the truth of which of them actually killed Arianna – in the meantime Grindelwald was building an army and Europe is plunged into war. Way to go Albus! Voldemort would have been even easier to stop. I mean, it was fairly obvious when he first visited Tom Riddle in the orphanage that the little bastard was evil. So what does Albus do – he invites him to come to Hogwarts so the boy can learn to become a fully trained wizard. Good thinking! Regarding Harry missing out on seeing his parents, he did at least have that vision of his mother in Japan. I like to think that experience would have brought him closer to her than the mirror/scene in the graveyard would have. Sirius and Remus have already been regaling Harry with stories of Lily and James and the pair will provide an important focal point for him too. As for Ginny – chapter 18 is when she will appear. Thanks for the offer regarding the HTML stuff – when Mrs B gets a free moment (damn her degree course!) she will hopefully educate me. Any problems and I will certainly cry for help. This stuff is too much for my tired old brain. Reviewer: GazingIntoTheAbyss Signed Date: 2013.02.07 - 12:42PM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon Well, that was a quick update! Brilliant chapter as always. I can't wait to see the repercussions of Ariana's speech and the destruction of the stone. Thanks for sharing! Reviewer: Birlan Signed Date: 2013.02.07 - 11:20AM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon That was a surprising turn into darkeness for Dumbledore. I did not expect it and do not know what to expect in the future. But its a good reminder that in a story where the author notes are at the top of the chapter and not at the bottom, the author reserves the right to challenge our expectations. Reviewer: zeta_one Signed Date: 2013.02.07 - 10:30AM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon WOW! So far, that was the best humbling I have read concerning Albus. Brilliant. Can't wait to see how that will affect him. Reviewer: potterfan2008 Signed Date: 2013.02.07 - 09:26AM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon I know I already reviewed, but I was rereading the chapter. I can't believe Dumbledore allowed Arthur to be sacked - I bet his pet Death Eater still has his job. I'm rather uneasy about the vow of silence they took - that just doesn't sound like a good thing. Reviewer: ginnyweasley777 Signed Date: 2013.02.07 - 08:57AM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon lol at Dumble's chest set, so typical Reviewer: nesciamema Signed Date: 2013.02.07 - 03:15AM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon Dumbledore's a real piece of work for letting Arthur lose his job when he could have prevented it. Reviewer: jojo99 Signed Date: 2013.02.06 - 09:40PM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon Oh wow - will that help Albus see the error in his ways? I'm honestly not sure. Great chapter once again. Reviewer: Trucker Signed Date: 2013.02.06 - 08:38PM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon Fantastic! You saved APWBD and gave him a chance (however small) for redemption! And, boy, did he need taking down by an impartial witness. Reviewer: skiutahnum1 Signed Date: 2013.02.06 - 08:22PM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon Well I'm glad to see someone has the guts to tell albus his sucks and needs to think more out the whole picture not his part only.....kutgw Reviewer: cartman1701 Signed Date: 2013.02.06 - 07:54PM Title: Chapter 12 – Under a Hunter’s Moon whoa. The ending chapter was intense. Curious to see what Dumbledore does from this point on. As always good sir, great update. | |||||||
