"That was the first person who died as a direct result of my actions."
You forget professor Quirrel (Philosopher's/Sorcerer's Stone). Harry made a conscious decision to grab... whichever part of Quirrel's bare skin he decided to grab - the result of which was the death of said Quirrel
Crys replied:
Actually, it's generally accepted that Harry didn't kill Quirrel. Harry passed out in pain. Voldemort abandonded the wounded Quirrel, incidentally killing him in the process. Therefore VOLDEMORT killed Quirrel.
From Harry's POV, Quirrel was still alive when Harry himself passed out. No matter what really happened, Harry wants to believe he didn't kill Quirrel. Self-delusion? Possibly, but I can't really blame Harry for thinking that way.

I am still constantly amazed at how you make this work. I cannot wait to get to where I can write about the noble house factors you've inspired in me.
Your Ron is killing me.
This is phenomenal stuff. So well done.

HAH! Oh... and I wonder, why wasn't Hermione there? W/e. LOVED the chapter! I like more Nim/Harry personal time.... please?! THANKS SOOOOOOOOOO much for the update. Also, I liked the whole 'training Harry' joke, and also that Ron and Harry didn't make up right away. Oh yea, and Ron's skepticism. ! That's it! Bye!

Crys replied:
There were only two kinds of people there. Those in the same economic / social group as the Abbotts (Patils, Potter) and the dates of the aforementioned (Ron). Hermione is not in either group. If she ever becomes a successful businesswoman in the wizarding world, she may well get into that group on her own merits, but at the moment she simply isn't.
Not being biased against Hermione herself or muggleborns, simply that Hannah was working within the constraints laid down by her parents' invitations.

*Snicker* That was a fun read indeed. Thank you.

That was funny! Why the long wait? Anyway, I approve of your "type" of Ron. Oh, and "Bob Alyxand"? Any relation to the Sunrise Over Britain "Bob and Alyx"?
Crys replied:
Sorry for the long wait, but RL is trying to keep me away from having any fun.
As for Bob Alyxand? Any resemblence is purely intentional.

good chapter - guess that I am going to have to go back and look up why Ron is being such an infernal git, but I like Tonks and Harry and Neville so much as you have portrayed them that I don't mind forgetting a little about the lesser characters.
thanks and warm regards

good chapter but one question are you going to make ron more of a bastard and dumbledore's little spy or are you going to keep him the jelous little prat that you have?
Crys replied:
But he's doing so WELL as a jealous little prat . . .

Me Again.
Also can't wait to see what Christmas presents Harry and Nym exchange. As well as what Harry gets everyone else with full access to his wealth and a certain metamorphmagus making him very happy I think he will definitely be in the giving mood.
Later
Update soon.

Liked the party. Good interaction with his peers. Also nice to see that they are growing up, too.
Thanks for sharing this with us.

Great chapter.
Loved the food fight, wonder if Nym is going to figure out what Harry did.
Did think up an interesting point, don't the other students have any curiosity about the Halloween prank. Do they know who Harry was, and if not why aren't they bothering him about it.
Liked that Harry publically states that he loves Nym. We have now seen Nym in Harry's social circle(age wise), how about having Harry have to interact in Nyms family and friends. A New Years party perhaps with the Tonks family and friends.
Wonder how long it will be before word leaks about Harry and Tonks. Probably accidentaly since these were Harry's friends but people gossip and are overheard.
How is Harry's metamorph training coming along, are they far enough along to go out on dates in the muggle world.
Wonder how the investigation against Umbridge is going. Maybe the toad could be offered a deal to turn on Fudge, get a competent minister in office.
Update soon.
Crys replied:
Nim was a little busy dodging food (probably with limited success) to notice that Harry wasn't splattered.
Harry interacting with Nim's family? Well, he hired her mother. He hired her aunt. He's on speaking terms with her father. Her friends? Unfortunately she lost contact with them when she was fired.
Everyone there at the teen party was at least friendly with Harry. But remember that that evening is the "adult" party. Lots more people to meet. [misty, Trelawney voice] I forsee the Prophet hearing about Harry's dating habits soon.
Morphing training is going slowly. Not good enough for him to get out. Yet.
We'll hear about Amelia's investigation into Umbridge eventually.
