I like this! And there's no need to as for more. You ended it nicely :)

A/N: Took me long enough to finish this - a little under a year, truly. *laughs nervously* I got stuck on a number of places and had to fight with it. Oops?

I know the feeling! I'm glad you won the fights lol

[batsutousai]

^.^ Yay for liking!

No joke... ^.^"

Very nice. I fully intended to ask for a pointy rock (if only to annoy you), but I find I can't. It's wrapped up quite nicely. This ending was more positive than the thought of Albus' funeral, so I'm glad you didn't write that. It's gonna be tricky to teach kids about magic when they don't have any themselves, though. Especially when they get to the rebellious teen stage. I'm guessing these twelve were ex-wizard-born? (would explain how their parents knew to send them to Hogwarts.) I suppose, if you really wanted, you could do a drabble or two in the same verse. (oh look, there's that pointy stone anyway!)

I really enjoyed the story. Towards the end, I did miss Tom and Harry snarking at each other a bit. The hospital scene was very funny. But it was nice and fluffy and made me feel warm inside. So thanks for persevering and writing this story.

*snorts* How did I know?
Yeah... I just don't like the feeling of the ending, even if it does work.... ^.^"
It'll be interesting. I mean, they can show off the proper wand movements and pronunciations of the incantations. And they can make potions, they just won't be as effective without the creator's magic weaved in. But, yeah, teaching them as they get older will certainly be much harder - good thing they've got Sev on staff to keep them in line, ya? XD
For the most part, aye. And they're not all from the UK - I just decided. Word had to be sent out that Hogwarts would take and teach the children.
.... *eyes stone, eyes cloe, throws for the hell of it*

Yay!! I rather prefered them snapping at one another myself, but that wouldn't make a particularly good story.... ^.^"

Loved it! Really good idea! And Tom and Harry were so sweet after they finally stopped being bratty children.

And I'll be nice and not ask for a sequel, considering how long it took you to write this; I wouldn't want to deal with a story that's being this difficult myself.

Well, let's hope the new magical children won't make the same mistakes, else Tom and Harry come - even if they'd already died - to kick their asses. *smirks*

[batsutousai]

*laughs* I'll pass that on to them. XD

No joke. I think it was only a pain to aggravate me. -.-

*laughs* Now that might be a story worth writing, if I cared to write about OCs. XD

Early on in reading Tom/Harry, my brain would break when people just smiled and pulled up a chair next to the former Lord Voldemort. It still gets me a little, because grudges don't die just like that, nor ideas as strong as Tom's. On the other hand, I like the slash and I like the story, and it would kind of break if people insisted on hating Tom to kingdom come, so.

Um. At the end of that really random soapbox is much glee as I pull myself out of my CSI slash hole to revisit the old stomping grounds of other fandoms. So, yay, Harry and Tom! Double yay for Remus and Severus! I definitely liked, Bats. The opening in the hospital had me rolling, and the story almost had me late for work (I didn't want to stop reading). XD

Psst. Hated Salvation ::shifty-eyed:: ::runs::

[batsutousai]

*snickers* Yeah. I still have that same problem, myself. If they don't give a good reason for Tom changing his mind-set, I generally stop reading. (I still wonder what I was on when writing Abandon. ^.^")

*laughs madly* I WIN!! I pulled you away from CSI!! *dances*

*eyeballs half-completed chapter, then shoves it under a chair* Shush, you.

[devil_kaos]

Yay ^.^

I like it - even though they can't do magic *loves magic*

But it's nice in its own way - I love the part where they are making jokes on Sev's account ^.^

Kaos ^^

[batsutousai]

^.^

Sev is one of those characters you have to make fun of. XD

[devil_kaos]

That's so right, Bats! *g*
