Hello peoples! Just a quick couple of notes on the last chapter; thank you for all your reviews first of all, I've got lots of lovely feedback but also, understandably, a lot of you have raised the 'muggle getting into Hogwarts grounds' issue. Obviously I was fully aware when writing the chapter that it was unfeasible, and I did nearly write it where Vernon didn't come back into the story he was just captured by the Ministry - however that felt ridiculously anticlimactic and frankly boring. And after what Vernon did, who didn't want to see Sirius drown him in the lake? Secondly, I wanted to wrap this story up, I think someone said it was rushed, though I think this refers rather more to the muggle at Hogwarts problem than anything else. I'm not one to drag things out further than they should be, had I put another chapter in about Harry crying and Remus hugging him it would have been pushing it a bit - and that brings me onto my third point, the whole emotional content of this story is incredibly far fetched, the point of good hurt/comfort is to pull on your heart strings by whatever means possible, and that means distorting emotional and yes, sometimes physical realities, at the end of the day we're dealing with a fantasy here, and I figured since this is written with the intention of garnering an emotional response, a little bending of the rules was necessary. Also - this story is a bastardisation of someone's Magnum Opus - I mean... how picky can we be, really? This is fanfiction darlings - not Tolstoy. However, I'm very sorry if my rebellious bending of the magical rules has tainted this story for you, I hope you can still enjoy the last chapter, which should be with you shortly. M
