Great ending. Neville, you poor silly besotted fool, if you'd married Ginny she would have destroyed you.
Author's Response: Thanks! Yes, I don't think Neville could handle Ginny :)

Great story. Harry and Ginny sure do have a thing for getting together in front of a big crowd. Considering it's obvious they'd stay together after that, I guess my biggest question going forward would be if Harry continues as an Auror or if he switches to Quidditch full time.
Can I ask how you decided to bring stalking into the story? Was it an issue you wanted to tackle (like abuse in No More Secrets) and when you saw the challenge, realized it was a good opportunity to do it? Or was it something that came to mind when you were thinking up ideas for the challenge? I've really liked the way you've written about these issues and how they might be considered in the magical world.
Great job, and I eagerly look forward to your next story! Or an update to one of your ongoing stories (especially Realizations)!
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I thought the kiss in front of most of the wizarding world was rather appropriate. I might add a one shot to delve a bit more into their futures.
I've had this story idea for a while. As you know, I do like bringing real issues into the wizarding world. I'd planned the first chapter and the stalker so when the challenge came along, it seemed the perfect time to actually write the story.

Hi! Great AU story. I enjoyed it very much. Maybe I would have liked little bit more romance between H/G but it's your story.
If Ginny was real, I would probably be that stalker :D Not so brutal of course.
Author's Response: Thanks! I would have like a bit more romance as well, but with the word limit I had to pick and chose what to show.

My only thought SEQUEL.
Author's Response: Thanks! I might add a one shot to show what happens.

Great story and i would have loved to read more in this AU. How did things work out for Ron and Hermione, did Harry and Ginny stay together ( of course they will but nice to see relationship developing) and so on.:)
Author's Response: Thanks! I would have liked to write more, but I was already 6,000 words over the 20,000 word limit so I didn't do that. I'm glad you liked it.

One day I'll get you to describe the England team properly :)
Congrats on winning the People's Choice award, well deserved.
Author's Response: Thanks! Sorry I kept messing up the England team. I thought I used the terminology I found on the Harry Potter Wiki site, but I apologize for getting it wrong.

Really great ending. I like how you had them (Neville and Ron) resign from their training. I can't picture those two being any good as an Auror. Really glad you had Harry get to do something he enjoyed rather than something he felt he should do since he was good at it.
I loved how you had Ginny and Harry's relationship develop over time. The ending kiss I front of the wizarding world was great.
Author's Response: Thanks! I don't really see either of them being Aurors. I'm glad you liked the relationship between Harry and Ginny. I couldn't resist the ending kiss.

Ginny seems to have a tendency to judge men by her brother. She thought Harry would be upset by the attention paid to others. I enjoyed reading Michael being taken down a peg or two. However, he's still a git, maybe he will realize how culpable he is when his cousin is on the front page of the newspaper. I see that some of Ron's jealousy of Harry from canon was transferred to Ginny in this story. I particularly loved the ending where you kept a bit of canon in their first kiss.

“I’m good at this, Ginny. You know that.”
“I’m no good at this, Ginny. You know that.”
Author's Response: Thanks, I fixed them. I think Ginny's experiences with Ron and Neville would color her views on men. I liked taking both Michael and Neville down a bit. I liked the idea of the first kiss being in the packed stadium :)

Exciting end to both the stalker mystery and the Quidditch story! I've been waiting eagerly for the compledtion of this story and it was well worth the wait.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Nice story!
You got me confused a bit, if Harry was going to tryouts under the name of Black, shouldn't coach announce him as Harry Black? )
Author's Response: Thanks! I figured once he'd made the team, he wouldn't be able to hide his identity, so he'd go with Harry Potter.

I'm glad to see that you came back to this story, I thought for sure you would have forgotten about it....very nice ending.......kutgw
Author's Response: Thanks! No I didn't forget about it.
