I realize that I'm reading this a bit late, but I do want to say that this, so far, a beautiful story, how you take the canon HP story and twist it a bit to your own way, like everyone actually starting to care that the Dursely are complete utter demons, is so perfect.
I'd write more, but too anxious to read the rest.
Thank you for the wonderful story!!!!

A grammar nitpick: it's "won't talk to Ron and ME," not "Ron and I". You can always check yourself by taking out the "Name and" before the pronoun, to see if it makes sense. No one would say "won;t talk to I", right?
Terrific chapter, of course.

Damn those nightmares are vicious how can anyone handled them. At least now everyone will get a frist look at what Harry has to go through everynight. Still Tonks turning into Sirius had me rereading the page again. Bet that scared the daylights out of Harry. I think it's sweet the way Ginny is always there to comfort Harry.

I love how Ginny comes in to comfort Harry. There are nowords to describe how beautiful that is. She really understands him. The others, even though they try, can't get as close ro him as Ginny has. I love that. Hermione's jealousy is believable, as well. And the bit with Ron and Hermione on the couch was classic. Always nice to have a tender moment. Go for Ginny, Harry! Dean was too dumb to keep her, now it's your turn. Congrats on the super bowl. I myself didn't find the game as interesting as the half-time show. that was a tad too much, don't you think?

Great story, Melinda! There were a lot of scenes I liked in the previous few chapters. I'll try and mention a few: I liked chapter two from Molly's perspective; I don't think I've seen this done before.
The scene where Harry tries to strangle Kreacher was really powerful and well-written, also very original; amazingly Kreacher seems to be written out of a lot of sixth-year fics (including mine) I think because most writers don't know what to do with him but having him stay in the house (very believable, really, considering Dumbledore's speech at the end of OoTP) was great and that's exactly what he'd say to Harry, too.
I, of course, like the interactions between Harry and Ginny. My only small quibble is that Ginny's character sometimes seems a bit too mature and well-adjusted; I'd like to see more of her wrestling with her own (still considerable, I would think) unresolved baggage in future chapters and maybe Harry helping her, though I liked the scene with her and Hermione a lot. Of course, Harry won't just directly talk to Hermione because she's too direct and not really sensitive enough even though she desperately wants to be.
The vision with Voldemort in this past chapter was also very haunting. I was expecting it just to be another scene of the dead figures coming to haunt Harry but it was a lot scarier when Voldemort appeared and threatened him. I like the way you balance the danger the characters are in with the romantic part of the plot. It must be very humiliating for Harry, on top of everything else, to wake up everyone each night; I'm sure I wouldn't want to do that. I like the way Ginny comes in quietly after everyone else has left. Have to feel sorry for Ron, though, having to sleep in the same room and be responsible for waking him every night.
I wonder why Ginny is so afraid of admitting to herself her own feelings for Harry. Is it just because of the pain of her previous unrequited crush? Surely she sees that Harry is looking at her differently now, though? Is there something else? I hope you can explore more about this in the other chapters (perhaps you already have) and I'd also like to hear quite why Ginny's previous crush on Harry is such a painful memory (apart from the obvious fact of being unrequited). Does it remind her of being childish? Does it remind her of being in the Chamber? And of course, in time, how being with Harry would be different now.
Oh and yes, I liked the howler, too, and Ginny's subsequent guilt about it.
Looking forward to reading the next chapters!
Author's Response: Gareth! Thanks for the majorly awesome long review! Point taken about Ginny being too mature, I'd already thought that myself and tried to tone it down in later chapters. You will see a bit more where her insecurites come from. Thanks for reviewing!
