Great start

Had a somewhat promising start, but I think I'll drop this from tracking now. You're going off on that whole stupid "magic is an addictive drug" thing that BtVS did only for Season 6 (and then promptly forgot about again in Season 7) which meshes horribly with the HP world and is really incompatible with the existence of a thousands-of-years-old Wizarding World where that is very much NOT the case. If you're going to mesh BtVS and HP, that needs to be toned down greatly or addressed in some other way than actually saying BtVS was right about that, as it totally invalidates the most basic premise of the HP world if used that way. Ah well, there are other stories...

Regarding the whole addiction angle, I'm not going to take the exact stand that BTVS took, if you must know. It's really a bit more broad than that. I'm going for a whole 'too much dependence on ANYTHING is bad' kind of angle. Hence the whole point about electricity. Hell, whenever we lose power over here, I feel totally helpless. I'm not trying to say that magic is a drug, or that the Wizarding World is on the wrong path. I'm just saying that it's something to keep an eye on and to watch out for.

Hmm, this looks interesting. Well, thanks for writing this, bye for now,

Some VERY interesting potential here that I look forward to seeing developed; should be interesting to see how Harry's training progresses with the Scoobies as his new guardians (Just so long as Dumbledore's the only person who'll be guilty of 'questionable conduct' when it comes to Harry, by which I mean leave Harry's friends his friends rather than people who were helping Dumbledore manipulate him).

Hey there! Thank you for your kind words. I do intend to leave Harry's friends above the fray, with Dumbledore and the Ministry taking most of the blame for the sad state of things. That being said, I do intend for Dumbledore to be redeemable. He strikes me, personally, as a man who recognizes that he is powerful and cunning, but at the same time he understands that this opens him up to fall all the harder when he does screw up. If he can be convinced that he DID, in fact, mess things up, I think he could be a strong ally.

That's assuming, of course, that his actions don't prompt the re-introduction of She of the Raven Hair and Veiny Face. We shall see. ~_^

Interesting start! Looking forward to reading more. :-)

A very enjoyable start, even with the easily addressed concerns that other reviewers have already brought up, and I'll definitely be following this to see where it goes. Thanks for writing. :)

I like the concept and look forward to more, but I have to ask, on what grounds is she taking Harry? Is she having the Dursleys "voluntarily" sign over their rights? If Slayer Central were set up as a potential year-round living situations for juveniles, then it would just be an additional boarding school, but if not, she needs rights to Harry's guardianship.

I'd like to see where you take this.

Very good start. While I do think that he should show a little more reluctance to just leave with Willow, that can be shown in next chapter by showing get over his initial happy reaction and realize that he should contact at least Dumbledore (sp). Especially since at this time in the series I don't think he knows why he has to stay with the Dursleys, just that he keeps being sent back for the summer.

I like the beginning. I'll be watching for updates. I like reading stories where Harry get's the support he needs.

Decent enough start. Shall see where this goes.

Wouldn't he be a little more cautious? She could be a death eater trying to get him outside the blood wards or some such. Shouldn't he send a note to Dumbledore?
Hm, isn't there someone supposed to be watching over the house, from the Order? Though if it's Mundungus, I can see it'd be a week before anybody noticed he was gone.
Come to think of it, with no letters from hermione/ron (again) I could see him not being eager to send any owl posts...

Great start
