OH dearie... I forgot to ad - as I just read another Mac-chapter - can I just say... WAY TO WRITE scottish accent? wow, I can SO hear her talk whenever I read your stories, it goes with all of your "accented" people :) WAY TO GO :)

Yay! - Updates are always great! :) :) I really love your stories, you make every person come to life as if you were the actual writer of them all, and that quite a feat! :)
-AND - don't mind those "Mac's too jealous, get over it"-fans - as a (former) VERY jealous partner I can SOOO see myself and my previous behaviour/way of thought in her - you absolutely nailed an insecure girl, right there! And getting her Neville as a boyfriend is just so awesome, they make a really cool couple :)
I just can't WAIT, please update sooon? :) Pretty please with sugar on top? Chocolate? coffee? anything? :D

I've become so used to this tale always havin more -- however will I cope now that I've caught up?! Seriously, thanks to the entire team for weaving a tale and storyline that works.

Oh, yay! A Hermione sighting! She's my favorite character in the HP books, even with her bossiness and bookish ways. I'll be interested to see how her character is portrayed in your story. Oh, and I'm hoping for some good old-fashioned Hermione/Draco fights, Filabuster Fireworks and all. Those always amused me. And no, I'm not a Hermione/Draco shipper in the least.

Thanks for writing!

Ah, thank you. Thank you so much. :)

That's Hermione for ya. Always stirring the pot. Looking forward to the next chapter

I like this idea of Hermione coming into the story and working with the Council. Her role with werewolf laws makes a lot of sense.

But Mac. *Mac*. Ugh, I know she is a fictionary character and an OC at that, but she has become such an annoying bitch when it comes to Neville and jealousy issues. I mean, REALLY? Over Hermione. Really? Ugh. I'm so speed reading through future Mac scenes because I can't stand this aspect.

I do enjoy everyone else though and am rather sad to hear about the future long waits for updates :(

The thing with Mac is getting old. Really.

As regards Hermione, this will be interesting.

I have a hunch she understands things a little better then most of the Ministry does; as in if it comes to a showdown how the Ministry gets worked like a worn out rubber band. The collective stupidity of all too many in the ministry is awe inspiring some times; the idea that they think they are important is amazing.

Who in the world prevents the Apocalypses and hunts down vampires and demons?

Aint the Ministry.

So when push comes to shove which will get the support from the worlds governments?

Aint the Ministry

and that is not even taking into account that if lowly little Voldemort gave the Ministry so much trouble, imagine what a group that while much smaller and weaker defeated a hell god and the First Evil could do to them?

Hmm. I'm actually starting to wonder whether Theo is really a necromancer, or whether his necromancy is more a function of an overcharged healing talent. Think about it - he hasn't summoned ghosts or spirits or anything, he's just given life to the lifeless-but-formerly-living.

@burm
Necromancers might be low on the power pole but since they are specialists in a small area they can be very deadly especially in a large grave yard.

We also know zombies can come back fully intact and intelligent after all look what happened to Jack oTool and his friends. they retained all memories, personalities and free will.

Not to mention there is a lot of dead materials on a body ie dead skin.

Even though it's weird that removing the head stops them when a severed hand can still be moving.

Necromancers are frankly somewhat low on the totem poll of magic users. You want to say squashed like a bug - that would be more the case of Willow squashing whoever like a bug.

And obviously whoever is pretty stupid and/or arrogant if he thinks he has a chance taking on the Council

Normally we don't give hints on the plot, but... no one has confirmed it was another necromancer. That's just what Theo thinks it is. ;)

Happy reading.

Yeah, great chapter.

Just got done reading all of the parts of this story. Absolutely wonderful. Will be eagerly awaiting the next chapter.

yay!

Really enjoying the ride with this story. I let it build up 10 chapters or so and then glut myself on snarky goodness. Daphne has truly shot herself in the foot on this one. And I hope Lavender is not going to be another Veruca. If Oz truly likes her for her, great but not another case of the wolf and man being pulled in two different directions. I like the direction Kasie's story is going, but I worry that she is going to be betrayed sooner rather than later. I just hope it doesn't break her in the process.
