bloody hell! that's about all I can say after reading that emotional rollercoaster of a chapter
I'm sad to say but I think it's a very realistic interpretation of the sort of things that would probably have been going on at Hogwarts
hard to read emotionally, but very well written

Hmmm. You have Sally-Ann as a seventh-year Gryffindor in this chapter. This would mean that she's in Harry's and Hermione's year. Was she really a Gryffindor? or was Ginny just describing her as one?

Anyway, very good, very tense chapter. Thank you for not letting Ginny get raped.

Author's Response: We never get a house in canon for Sally-Ann Perks or Elois Midgen, so I decided to round out Hermione's dorm a little. As for Ginny, it wasn't necessary, so I didn't do it. No point in inflicting that sort of trauma on the characters 'just because'.

when madame pomfrey cuddled ginny, that brought tears to my eyes. that was so well written, but i don't think it would have been easy to write. x

Author's Response: It really wasn't. But it needed to be there, and it took a good while to get right. Thanks for the review!

Well, it couldn't have gotten any more traumatic unless Ginny's assailants had actually been able to go through with it. Thank God they didn't, I mean, it's okay when authors do it for traumatic effect and if it fits in with their story, but Ginny would have been seriously messed up at the end of DH if she had been raped. Not only that, but I also hate it when she gets raped and that's her first time, cause from a females perspective, that's probably only 2nd worse to murder. Anyway, good chapter, I don't fully agree with the Michael thing, just because it seemed that he and Cho were still together at the end of DH, but they could have gotten together when Michael couldn't get Ginny, I suppose. Can't wait for the next chapter, keep up the good work!

Author's Response: Thank you - and believe me, there are very specific reasons for the way everything in that segment happened. Also, there was no need, for the purposes of my story at least, to be that cruel to the character.

As for Michael - heh, he was actually supposed to die, rather than Sally-Ann. Luckily, I double-checked and found out he was still alive as of the Battle of Hogwarts. As for Michael and Cho - I figured that Cho was a little too interested in Harry at the end of DH to still be with Michael.

You're right, this was a very traumatic chapter and I must say I skipped a bit at the attemped rape section of your story 'cause even though it's been over 18 years since I was sexualy assulted by some drunk idiot it still gives me the creeps to hear, see or read about it in media.
Don't feel sorry for me because it's been such a long time and with help I made it! It's good that people read about it in FF just to show that stuff happens to anyone, anywhere, anytime al the time.
Thank you very much and I look forward to your next chapter. C

Author's Response: I can understand - situations such as yours, or even people just uncomfortable reading the topic - are exactly why I included the warning. Still, I'm glad it didn't put you off of the story! Thanks for the review!
