Other Notes:
I'm making the assumption that brooms are like cars in a few ways, and that next year's family model comes out in the fall, while sports models come out in the spring.
The age of Hogwarts students are 11-18, the cut off date for entrance is Sept 1. AKA- you have to be 11 years by August 31, or you go into the next year's class. By this assumption, Hermione's birthday is 9-18-1979 for her to be 11 at the start of the Sorcerers Stone, not 10. And Harry's B-day is July 31, 1980. This assumption may make my years/ages one year off in either direction when dealing with people.
Voldemort's Downfall on 10-31-1981; Sirius and Pettigrew face-off on Nov. 1, 1981
The last time I worked extensively on the story was in May of 2003. OOTP came out in June. I've been working on revisions based on information revealed in that book. This is causing many of my dates and internal timeline to be a little off in places.
Special thanks and acknowledgements:
The Harry Potter Lexicon: - 2.html, for help checking my spelling- (yes, I'm still checking it!)
The FanFic Story's:
-- "I Am Lord Voldemort" by Helen Vader- (link has vanished!) For the inspiration to actually write this down.
"Darkness Dying"
For a believable world pre-HP books
"More the Fool He"
For Snape's view of the duel with Lockheart in COS
"Empty Chairs at Empty Tables"
For more inspiration about dealing with Lupin in my own story
Final Note: Each day is it's own adventure. It has its ups and downs, successes and failures. One day bleeds into the next creating a life. Just like it takes about 30 people in the background to put one news anchor on the television, there are crowds of wizards around many points in these books. Lory is part of that crowd, and part of Dumbledore's support staff. It started as 3 scenes I came up with driving across the country- and has grown considerably since. This is her story, from her POV. Enjoy!
Legal Stuff:
Harry Potter, its cast and characters, spells, potions, and the entire world were created by J.K. Roeling and are owned by J.K. Roeling and Warner Brothers. Copyright and merchandising and all the rest belong to those fine people there. No infringement on anyone's property is intended with this story, and no profit will ever be made by printing it. This is only a poor attempt to run around in a world more fun then my own at least on paper.
