Hi, This chapter is so nice. Surely it mirrors all first night experiences. Since I live in a town one of whose businesses in Marriage and where It is so commericialized, it is a real pleasure to read of something this normal and nice. I wonder if those Quidditch tickets are designed to bring them into contact with the McIsenrod character? A very lovely read.

This is an excellent chapter. I love the fact that Harry and Ginny have a phoenix. Dark Wizards would never have a phoenix. It was really nice of Mr. Woodall to give them the Quidditch tickets. They would both enjoy that so much. That little beaded bag is really useful. I'm glad Hermione sent them the journal. That will make it really easy for them to communicate with Hermione and Ron. It is too bad that Crackshot is causing so much trouble. I look foward to how you are going to deal with him and the bounty hunters that will try to find Harry and Ginny. I look forward to more of this story. pms

She's not kidding!

> "Do you think that maybe you and Ginny... might be going a little fast?"

Good question! I'm actually with Ron on this one!

Well ... until he joined in on the whole marriage race thing.

Including Dudley was a nice touch. I've read quite a few fans saying that his 'redemption' in DH, his coming to terms with his cousin, was one of the few things that Rowling did right, and that they would have liked to have seen more of Dudley.

Mr.Intel replied:

I would think that the marriage race is fairly realistic.   If you think about it, the end of World War Two led to the "Baby Boom" that's wreaking havoc on the US Social Security System right now.   I think a lot of people involved in the war would be ready to grasp any and every chance of happiness that they could.   It doesn't get more involved than Harry, Ginny, Hermione, and Ron.

As for Dudley, I too was pleased with his change in DH.   He doesn't play a major role in the story, but adds emotion to their wedding.

Now that is a nice, sweet, gentle chapter.

Gotta wonder how much help the Woodhall's will be...I certainly hope they,and others, will be able to help Harry and Ginny out when the crackpot running Wizarding Britan tries to turn up the heat on them.

Good Work

Mr.Intel replied:

Hmmm.   Well, all I can say is that the Woodhalls definitely lead H&G somewhere important.   Isn't Quidditch important?   ;)

Crackpot is really pissing me off. Hopefully a certain someone will give him the boot.

Mr.Intel replied:

All in good time.   ;)

*happy sigh* I love Twilight <3. It's nice to read a relatively peaceful chapter after the previous one :P. I like it, and I can't wait to read more.

Well, things are certainly heating up here. Nice one so far, looking forward to the next update! thanks!

I really like this story so far! It seems pretty realistic as to what would happen after DH. I wish that Ginny's dress had been described in this chapter, though, and it really surprised me when Dudley showed up. That part was something that I couldn't quite believe.

But.. anyway... this is a great story, and I can't wait to read more! Thank you :).

hmmm.... wonder what happened with aunt martha. i loved the scene with Harry and Ginny and Teddy, it was soooo cute. can't wait to read the next chapter

topcatloveee007 posted a comment on Thursday 21st August 2008 1:04pm

i liked the way you incorporated scenes from CoS, GoF, and OotP. this was very "harry" thing for him to do, having to show her these memories. i was not expecting it and it fit perfectly. i really do hope though that Ron and Hermione will make up soon,i know they are just being themselves but i just hate it when they argue sometimes. thanks for a great chapter, can't wait to read the next.

i do love harry when he's spontaneous. great chapter, wish i had the self-control to write a longer review but seeing as the next chapter is already up.... chao!

topcatloveee007 posted a comment on Thursday 21st August 2008 12:36pm

the bit about the keys from the different cities definitely made me laugh and the bit about ginny at the beach in a bathing suit. you definitely have moody harry down pat :) i also think that this fic is very clever, with the allusion to Orwell's 1984. oh, and i love harry and ginny's phrase "i can live with that". it's absoulutely perfect!

topcatloveee007 posted a comment on Thursday 21st August 2008 12:22pm

you've got me hooked :) on to the next chapter!

Oh, boy! The fit is going to hit the shan. I wonder how cooperative the Canadian authorities are going to be?

Nice chapter - keep on going. I especially liked the vows scene - kind of reminded me of my wedding... Hope all is well.

interesting chapter

Sonicdale posted a comment on Wednesday 20th August 2008 1:46pm

Oooo.
A cliffie.
Liked the bonded for eternity. ;) Wonder where you heard that?

The bit at the beginning was a little slow, but picked up. You are a guy, so this was purely written from a guy's perspective. I've read fanfic that took 23 pages just to describe the wedding gown, the decor, the colors of the flowers, the tiara in her hair, the cut of the cloth, etc. ad nauseum. So I liked the details you had and that you didn't overwhlem us with what was there. Kudos for that.

No stag party/bachelor party?

In all, good work. The toasts were nice, and the ribbing from his mates was cool.
Good work.
