I really like the idea of Dumbledore using his Chocolate Frog card to communicate. Super creative and fits his personality.

Author's Response: Thank you. And welcome new reader! Yes, I felt like the Chocolate Frog Card concept was inspired. I just couldn't accept that Dumbledore would leave Harry without the benefit of some guidance. It was my way of retaining him as a participatory character. I hope you enjoy my story! Happy reading.

Ah yes, the break up. The most annoying event in all of the seven books, at least from my point of view. To tell the truth, I started reading the story in the hope that you are trying to fix that problem very soon. Lucky me. Since I enjoy the grace of the late reader, I'll soon know a bit more about it. At least I hope so.
The speaking Dumbledore card is a very interesting idea.
So, that's it for this chapter. I want to read on ...
Many thanks for sharing the story!

Author's Response: The break up... Yes, well, read on... I will not make you wait very long to know. I will be curious about your response. Please enjoy! Thanks so much!

I like the changes already. So glad to see Ron and Hermione have come to their senses sooner rather than later, and I can only hope that Harry will do the same! I am curious about Dumbledore's Chocolate Frog Card - is it really Dumbledore or simply an enhanced base to allow the card to converse better with Harry?

Author's Response: I am so glad you are liking my approach. I wanted to get the relationships together so that I could deal with their development. You like a lot of folks are curious about the nature of the Chocolate Frog Card Base. Unfortunately I am going to decline to give you a straight answer, instead saying that the answer will come in time. It is certainly more than a Wizard painting and much more than a Wizard photograph. But, I am sorry you will have to wait for more than that. Thanks for reading and commenting!

Glad to know Ron and Hermione are now officially boyfriend and girlfriend, but it makes me wonder what the catalyst, other than Harry's nudge and Ginny's relief, would be to make Hermione accept Ron as her boyfriend. In canon, it took Ron's remark about the house-elves to make her accept him as more than her good friend.

Since you took the time to have Fawkes deliver the card base, the card and the base are probably central to the story and given that Harry still longs for someone to mentor him, I'm speculating that this is a connection for him to the late headmaster.

Well done.

Author's Response: Thank you for your appreciated praise! The H/R relationship will continue to evolve throughout the story.
The Card Base definitely will serve to blunt the reality that Dumbledore is no more, and will certainly lead to valuable insight for Harry, both in his education and in the tasks that lay ahead of him. But, do not look for it to occupy the same sort of controlling influence that the live Dumbledore maintained.
Thank you so much for your reading and commenting. I look forward to your reactions to future chapters!

I can understand why Ginny is avoiding Harry, but it is sad. Rather short chapter.

Author's Response: They get longer. And Harry will take action to correct the split between them. Thank you for reading and commenting. I do hope you stick with the story. Thanks again!

It was nice to read this again. Hopefully, the formatting issue won't recur. Did you get my email?

Author's Response: Yes I did. thanks.

Author's Response: The formatting issues should have been fixed now for all chapters. And you will get the next chapter as soon as it is ready to be Beta-ed... (Is that a word?)

So the changes begin. I wonder what is in store with the card. What kind of message has Dumbledore left? I'm a bit surprised Ginny chose to Floo home with her parents.

Author's Response: Well, if you're boyfriend had just broke up with you, would you want to spend 4 hours on a train with him if you had a choice?
