I am enjoying. I have to say though I jumped through some chapters to end up here. I figured out he wasn't dead though before since I didn't read where Jack began to question his death. Anyway I guess I'll go back and read that stuff.
Love the story

I love the addition of Sophie, she seems so cute and a little daddys girl. Plus, im also glad that there is no-one special in Harry's life (to possibly muck some possible future events up, hmmmmm?). Looking forward to him finding out about his son, eeep!

I actually like the Sophie idea. She seems awfully sweet. It's nice that Harry wasn't perfect, but it does sound like he regrets what he was. Ron as ambassador though - that blows the mind. Social skills were not exactly his forte, and I just can't imagine him mixing with the movers and shakers and not blowing it big time. Hermione, yes. Draco Malfoy, yes. Even Bill, but Ron, no way.

Am guessing that Harry is not going to get off so easy when Ginny has time to fully digest his "plan" and has her chance to focus the conversation on "what were you thinking?"

Of course, at some point in the discussion there's no escaping the reality that Sophie and Alex don't exist otherwise.

Thanks for taking us on this trip!

Author's Response: There will definitely be that conversation between the two of them (I've already got it planned out in my head)...it'll be a few chapters down the road though :) And obviously Harry is already aware (well at least at a basic level and not knowing that one of her sons is his) that Ginny has children. And Ginny and the others will become aware of the fact that Sophie exists in Harry's life. Thanks for reading!

You are right that I am trying to reconsile the new Harry/Evan with the heroic selfless Harry. But, I am keeping in mind that harry didn't know who he was or his past life and we must remember that the spell robbed him of a part of himself. Now, I am expecting to see more of the old Harry emerge since his memories are returning.
Your dialog was very real. Now, I am getting ahead of myself here but I am hoping that if Jackson's connection was so strong to essentially cancel the Vow than could his interaction with Harry begin to jump start Harry magic? And is Sophie magical? Like your other stories, they always keep me wanting the next chapter soon.

Author's Response: Harry is still fundamentally, Harry. But the things Evan has had to go through and the people he's been around and choices he's made has made him different from Harry in a lot of ways. And I think we, as well as Harry himself, are starting to see that he is still there underneath Evan Smith. And we'll just have to see about Harry's magic or the idea that Sophie might be magical. Those will both be addressed, although I won't tell you which way each goes :) Thanks for reading! And I hope to have the next chapter out by the end of the weekend.

I only started reading this story, today actually, and have now gotten to this point. May I say that your writing technique is fantastic and now I cannot wait for more. I love this story and the emotions that are running with it. I cannot wait to see how you bring Ginny and Harry, along with Jackson, together.

Author's Response: Well thanks for taking the time to read and leaving some great comments:) It's always appreciated. And the reunion/introduction will happen in the next few chapters and I hope you all enjoy how I'm planning on going about it.

once again an amazing chapter. the stage is set and the important pieces are in place. the amount of angst that is coming will be staggering. in some ways for harry it's only been a few months but for ginny it's been seventeen long years of being alone with a cherished memory that isn't completely true, coupled with that the abandonment issues no matter how good the original intentions are... awesome stuff.

Author's Response: There will be some angst and the emotions will be high in the chapters to come for sure. Ginny's feelings are going to be complicated and I can't wait to share her reaction and what happens from here. Thanks again!

I hope everybody apologises to Jackson when it turns out he was right. Good story.

Author's Response: Thanks :) I'm not sure it'll be an outright apology to Jackson, but he will get vindication for being right in the end.

I continue to enjoy the story. I think it makes sense that Harry did not lead a celibate lonely life for his years of memory loss. Same as with Ginny. I will be interested how you introduce Jackson and Ginny into the equation.

I haven't gone back and re-read the earlier sections but I do have one writing comment--which is a personal opinion and not one that everyone shares. I found it jarring to have the POV change from Jackson and Ginny to Hermione and Ron. Its your story and I don't know that you could have told it the way that you wanted to from only Jackson and Ginny but it seemed odd that Ron and Hermione went from being minor characters to the POV focus. Just a comment from my POV.

I'm also really disappointed that Remus, McG and Snape did nothing to seek out Harry afterwards. Or that they didn't refuse the Unbreakable vow. I realize that its a cornerstone of your story but the idea that all 3 of them watch what happens with ginny and jackson and did nothing is shameful. I presume that they will be forgiven and everything will be OK but frankly I would prefer if they were ostracized and shamed by their friends and family. Remus has some excuse because of his own family but Snape has none and McG has almost none.

I look forward to reading more.

Author's Response: Ginny and Jackson will return in the next chapter and we'll get to see their reactions and how I bring the two worlds together now. I'm glad you pointed out the POV change. It was really tough to figure out where to bring the story from and it was necessary for it to swing Ron and Hermione's way.The beginning of the next chapter will be from Hermione's POV, but after that it should be strictly Harry, Ginny or Jackson that we get from here on out. I really do appreciate your comments, because it's something I've had to think about and I'm lad that it hasn't turned you off from reading. And there was no way around making bad guys out of Remus McG and Snape. It was a necessary plot device and the only way I could create what I've done so far. There will be a level of forgiveness, but one member of the three will feel the wrath a little bit more :) Thanks again!

i would have to say this is my favourite H/G fanfic ever. i'm so caught up with the story
i agree with you harry having Sophie. but a relief when i found out he never fell in-love after ginny :)
i was just annoyed hermione and ron didn't tell him about his son. i don't think it's a big deal if they told him (even though you specifically said they're not the right person to tell)
I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

Author's Response: Yep, Harry's most definitely only been in love once :) but I needed to give him something that a) made it so he wasn't alone and b) showed he was okay and had created a sliver of happiness for himself. And I found that in Sophie. And I tend to disagree that it doesn't matter if Ron and Hermione tell him. I think it needs to come from a specific someone and at the right time. Believe me, he's got enough to deal with at this moment without having that dropped on him out of the blue. Plus, if they just come out and tell him, it'll ruin the next few chapters :) But I assure you, he'll find out and it won't be long and drawn out to get there.Thanks!

Was there a reason why they never told Harry about his son??
Who cares about Sophie but what about his son?
So mad.

Author's Response: I didn't want to give Harry a coronary right then and there. Plus, I'm not sure that having Ron and Hermione just come out with the news is the right way to go about it. It has to come from the right person and Ron and Hermione aren't. He'll find out, don't worry.

So I just caught up with this story and I LOVE it! You kept me on the edge of my seat, especially with this chapter. I kept wondering when Ginny was going to come up in conversation. I can't wait until Harry finds out he has another child! Any hope for a somewhat quick update? Looking forward. Nice work! :)

Author's Response: Thanks! It sounds like I'm doing my job :) Harry will find out...it's just a matter of find the right time and having it come from the right person :)

Awesome chapter, the story is really getting going now. Can wait to see how Harry deals with having his friends back.

Author's Response: Thanks! Yes, we'll be getting into the real heart of things now. But it'll be another chapter or so before we get Harry's thoughts/POV on things.

I'm enjoying!

Wow...three great chapters in just a few days...what a treat. Love your dialog...love how real you make these characters, like people I know or would want to know.

I thought Sophie was his daughter...a brilliant addition IMO. Actually perfect for a Harry/Ginny reunion...and really for the reconnection with all the Weasleys: you paint her adorableness quite well. Definitely looking forward to where it goes next.

And, yes, am truly looking forward to how you handle some scene when the full ramifications of Jackson's proactivity around "Restless Heart Syndrome" starts sinking in...when the sense of what they almost lost forever and now have again is most palpable.

Thanks for the gift.

Author's Response: Yeah...this was the part of the story where I didn't you hanging for too long. Plus I actually had a weekend to write and my muse was there :) And yes, Jackson will have some very strong emotions to deal with coming up and we'll begin to see how this news affects him. Thanks again for the review and kind words!

Up until recently, this story was very much like ordering a BLT and only receiving bread and lettuce. As it is now, it is like receiving a turkey bacon sami. Which has some of the same properties but still not what one ordered. It is an artificial semblance of the combination one wanted in the first place.


So sorry,
Feff

Author's Response: I'll take turkey and bacon over bread and lettuce...and I never asked everyone to like this. In fact, I'd be surprised if everyone did. Don't be sorry...

I dig this story. Thx for sharing.

Author's Response: I dig awesome reviews :) Thanks for reading!



Reviewer: Harte Signed Date: 2011.04.26 - 08:03PM Title: She

Wow - is there any chance Sophie is magical? It probably isn't important to the story but I just wondered. I liked how you handled Harry's reaction to the memories and thinking he was crazy. I also liked how you had Ron answer the question about Ginny's kids and his "keen interest" in cars.

Author's Response: Hmmm...there's always a chance. That's all I'll say about that though :) Harry's had a strange few months trying to come to terms with the past 17 years and how they fit into Harry. The real him has always been there of course, showing itself from time to time (we'll learn a bit more about his life in future chapters) but Evan was very different in some ways. Thanks for reading!

This chapter. Was ultra fab. I just want Harry to find out about Jackson! Grumble grumble. BUT I AM LOVING THESE SPEEDY UPDATES!!!

Author's Response: I'm glad you like it. These bits have been in my head for the longest time and I wasn't sure it'd turn out the way I'd imagined. But I'm glad it worked. Thanks!

I think thats a real way with the life harry has had....i think it works well...as for ron and hermione they may not be right for awnsers but i think its time to have them tell harry about the other boy as well and have then all work out in the end....kutgw

Author's Response: Harry needs to know...it'll just take a bit of time...Thanks for reading!

What a great chapter! I can't wait for more. I'm surprised Harry didn't pick up that they didn't tell him how old Ginny's boys are when they told him the age of all the others. Harry seemed a little stressed at the end. I guess it'd be a very hard situation, so stress would be very likely. Does Ginny get to find out soon?

Author's Response: Thanks! Harry being stressed and overwhelmed did very much lead to him not pursing further the ages of Ginny's sons. There's a lot of emotion in thinking/talking about her for Harry. And revelations will happen next chapter :)
