~*~aUtHoR's NoTe~*~

 SEQ CHAPTER \h \r 1Alrighty. I need to settle something once and for all. This is mostly for my new resident flamer, but it might pay for everyone else to read this too, coz this applies to everyone reading this story and there's a few explanations for a few things too.

Firstly, I would like to make a few points.

1. I KNOW I am no JK Rowling. I also realise that a lot of the points in this story are way-off and improbable. I have two excuses for that. One - I began this WAY before OotP came out. Two, the whole idea of FanFic writing is that you get a bit of a license to change things around.

2. DON'T DISS MY NAME. I happen to think flamer is a really stupid and unoriginal name. So there. Also, DO NOT DISS MY REVIEWERS'S NAMES. May I explain that names such as "Princess" and "Siri's Girl" are merely for fanatical or lyrical purposes? In other words, for fun. We KNOW they aren't our real names. If I wanted, I could take the crap out of the name flamer. But I'm not that kind of person. However I will state that I know for sure that it is not YOUR real name.

3. DON'T DISS BLONDES. We can't really chose our hair colour. And I happen to be blonde.

4. LEAVE MY REVIEWERS ALONE. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. If they like my story, then that's OK. Just like you are allowed to not like my story. If you don't like my story, leave it at that. Don't diss my reviewers. They didn't write this story. Have a problem? TAKE IT UP WITH ME.

So as not to sound hypocritical, I must also ask my reviewers to leave flamer alone. It's really no different to him/her insulting you or me.

5. Enlighten me. If you think my story is so stupid, WHY THE F*** DO YOU CONTINUE TO READ AND REVIEW IT? I HOPE your bloody "sprained elbow" prevents you from reviewing the next few chapters. You don't like them, so don't read them. No one's forcing you to.

No, wait. I want one more review from you. I want to know why you keep reading. Because if you are reading this, I'm laughing. Because you're still reading this "crap", "stupid", "sucky", "horrible" story, which makes me piss myself laughing. It makes no sense.

Like I've said before, I don't mind flames. But there is a difference between disliking a story and beating the s*** out of a story (and its author and reviewers). If I don't like a story, I don't waste my time even saying so. I just move onto the next one. So before you tell me I don't have a life, look in the mirror. If you've got nothing better to do than insult people all day then I think you need to listen to your own advice. Yes, you are entitled to an opinion. But stating an opinion was a few steps down from your reviews. Your reviews are plain insulting.

For now, I'm going to leave it at this.

To all my faithful readers, the next chapter will be up soon. To my resident flamer, get some guts. Give me a reason or go.

Cheers and later days,

PS: Regarding the whole "Voldie can't be Lily's father because the CoS was opened 50 years ago…" thing, you're wrong. It says that the Chamber hadn't been opened for fifty years. It didn't say that the heir last returned fifty years ago. The heir didn't necessarily have to open the Chamber. There would have been quite a few heirs before Riddle and I highly doubt all of them opened the Chamber, or more people would have known about it. So technically speaking, him being Lily's father is a valid idea.

And I know the books say Lily is a muggle born, but if you actually read my story properly it gives you a reason for all that. Lily doesn't tell anybody she's not muggle born because that would be admitting she is related to Voldemort, which she is pretending not to be.

Got any other points to pick on? I'll gladly give you a reason for anything if you want me to. I actually put thought behind what I write in my story and I'm sure I can justify just about anything. If not, wow. I'm only human. A thirteen year old one at that. You can't expect me, or my story for that matter, to be perfect. I'm not trying to pretend it is.

PPS: Yeah, Maigon – o'course you can do a quiz. Let me know when you do it, won't you?
