gah, I haven't had to work that hard to hold back tears in a long while >.<
I always get excited though when my inbox shows there's been an update to this, haha
it's a really wonderful story and I can't wait to see more ^^

P.S. The link for page 29 of Part 4 leads to page 28 again instead =p

Hi there! I just fixed the last page! Yeah, too many links. My copy/pasting abilities are going downhill ;)

And thank you!

Jesus, break my heart, why don't you? *sniffles* This is epic, and so many of the panels are so powerful, especially the way you use body language.

[caladan_dd]

Sorry! Next chapter is almost all comic relief. I swear! :)

And thank you!

Part 3
Page 3 - 'We would only see her during visiting hours.
Page 7 - Beautiful perspective use! I love the foreshortening of Percival's arm! Silly, but there you go. ;)
Page 10-16 - I'd forgotten how intense this bit was; God, his poor family.
Page 16 - 'muggles' should be 'muggle'
Page 17 - 'There's three muggles' should be 'There are three muggles'

A very intense section! Again, I love how you use the wands as staffs. They are far more dynamic that way. :)

Part 4
Page 1 - God, he looks so desolate sitting there by himself. Then he just completely brightens at the sight of his family.
Page 4 - The determination of youth!!
Page 5 - Abe looks SO sad

Alma! You so rock! I just made the corrections (I think I got them all).

I'm going to start preparing those Snape pics, then. :) You might want to think if there's something in particular that you want.

You have no clue how happy it makes me that you'll help me. Awesome!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

*hugs*

[almalthia]

It's my absolute pleasure to help anyway I can, hun!

Just drop me an email when you're ready for me to go over any pages and I'll do so, lickety split! :3

As to Snape: Anything. I trust you! Young Snape to teacher Snape to Snape being a badass in general. ;)

And again, any time!!

[caladan_dd]

Awesome! :)

oohh it just broke my heart!!! beautiful colors!!

[caladan_dd]

Sorry! Next chapter is pretty much all comic relief, to compensate a bit. :) And thank you!

This is such a wonderful work! I especially admire the way you alternate between detailed surroundings which I really love, and very simple to non-existing backgrounds.
Your style is also wonderful. I'm usually not much into manga, but yours are such lovely drawings that I could look at them every day.
Both parents are so beautiful, and the kids are all adorable.

Wonderful work, kudos! <333

And thanks for posting and sharing, too! I've discovered your art at DA and was completely blown away. :D

Hehe, I was not into manga either until I started reading Naruto. And it all went downhill from there. :)

I'm really very glad that you like how I drew the characters and that you like the story.

You have a DA account too?

And thank you for your comment!

Hehe, I've even decided to take a manga course next week, because I'm always interested in the technical side of art, lol. I'm very curious about how I will manage.

I LOVE your style, it's very beautiful and it's the right mix of traditional comic and manga that makes it so attractive. The way you draw backgrounds reminds me of classics like Asterix or other European comics, but including more dramatic "manga-ish" perspectives, as you did with Arianna's room - I loved that part!

Oh, yes, I do have a DA account. *grins* http://leochi.deviantart.com/

You're very welcome to the comment. :D
