Love the story! Please come back and treat us with another chapter :)

I'm living off water, cereal, and granola bars. Healthy, huh? *note sarcasm*

I get Seth, I'm told that I look like an 8 year old.

SO HAPPY this story is back! I’ve read it from the beginning and was so sad it might not get finished, but now you’re back! Story is as great as ever, so excited for your next update :)

oh this is litty! james and Seth need to make up doe, they’re being excessive

hello! glad to see you’re writing again. imma reread the series then leave another review at the end. ayeee

I just finished reading it.:) I love it. Cause I was looking for next generation fanfic and this was amazing. Please update

Hey! Welcome back :) I’m hoping you are keeping safe and healthy during this crazy time. But I also hope you have been doing well before this. Missed you friend, but glad you are determined to finish (and I would love a new chapter ASAP, but I’ll be happy with anything!)

So, I have a LOT of thoughts.
1) Katie is still the best friend ever. I love every side character but I’m disappointed in Bernice, if she thinks Seth is the culprit. You’ve always had the best side characters and I can’t wait for them all to show up: Freddie, Tarquin, these pure blood boys, her family etc etc
2) Sam. SAM. Ugh. Although, once in a reply you sent me, you mentioned how the secret that Seth was keeping for Sam was not the same one he was keeping from her- and now that makes so much sense. She’s going to forgive him. I think. Seth seems to be the one who never forgets but forgives so fiercely. (And can she forgive James. I. Want. Them. Together.) but it brings me back to te plot
3) it’s all related isn’t it. I bet Albus is part of this illegal potion ring. It goes back to the first detention. So my theory is that Albus is part of a group that bribed the Head Boy for access of something. And then Katie goes to infirmary for Crapula, and it goes back to this ring. They are not happy. BUT it’s okay they have Sam, Felicity. Albus wanted to recruit Seth but missed his opportunity but he is with Laura so it’s fine. But then Sam chickens out, which made Felicity mad. But it’s okay because Seth is making it. But now Sam is out, so Seth must pay- enter the Gryffindor party scene. Seth is poisoned. Now at the same time, Albus and Laura break up (completely independent from each other) and this ring is not happy, they poison Albus and make him forget. Ursula must be in and Vala. Maybe Augustus Cotton- who I would like to return- and I’m sure there a many other details. But Lucas is somehow involved.
4) her mom is awesome. But justice for Jeth. I am hoping that Ginny sees Seth stand up to a bully or something. Would like that for her.
5) I don’t trust Vala, but I think she’s going to help Seth at the end
6) Ok, James. Ugh. My heart. I loved reading this story since the beginning because of those heart stopping moments. My stomach drops if something cute, something happy, something upsetting happens. Every time. You are a brilliant writer.
But James. Needs to try harder. And then he says THAT. When she— even if he didn’t know— was going to tell him how she felt. I’m disappointed in a fictional fanfic character. He better make it better and soon. Enlist Freddie and Katie to help. Have Teddy help. Anyone. I want Seth to be happy, and she’ll be happiest with James.
7) I simultaneously want this to wrap up so I can get the answer I want but I missed this story. I started reading this story my senior year of high school and now I’ve graduated college and have been working this past year. It’s crazy. In a way, this story reminds me of specific event that I’ve forgotten about, because I read a certain chapter during x life event. So thank you for that. It means a lot to me. And I do hope you have been well my sweet friend.
But dear god, if James isn’t in the next chapter making out with Seth in an abandoned hallway I’m screaming. And if Seth could have a Woodley moment - aka her saying I’m a Woodley. We are stronger and no one tells me I’m something I’m not. Why would I believe these rumours- to James, Katie, and all the teachers. And Ginny. I want homegirl to have a attitude change, where she realizes she’s a smart fighter and shows everyone how amazing she is and she believes it. And then she figures out the ring. And James is there the whole way, because he tells her he loves her.

Coughs.
Turns out, getting older means nothing, because I feel like my high school self, discovering JSP fanfic for the first time.
Again, it’s nice to know you are doing ok. Sending you love from Canada

omg I cannot believe you’re back! Thank you thank you thank you! This is my favorite story ever! I’ve been keeping up with your story ever since harrypotterfanfiction era. But that site is gone, so I was rereading for the hundredth time here and I see this! You’ve made my day, scratch that. You’ve made my month! Love you!

Damn ! I’m so mad it was so close, they are both fully retarded haha

Thanks for the chapter and your return. Cant wait for the next take care.

Oh please don't have Henry Pennington be another obstacle for James and Seth. I mean it is your story so you can do whatever you want, but I just want Seth and James to get together already! Otherwise another amazing chapter. I like how Seth and Vala are on better terms now. Also loved that you had this chapter's setting as a wedding. Weddings are always so good for drama! I hope Seth and James make up soon after this fight, I think it was their worst one yet.

I am so beyond happy that you updated! This chapter was so good and worth the wait! I'm glad we got some answers with the whole mystery and Sam's involvement. I can't wait to see where this goes. Also brilliant putting Seth and James in detention together! Now they have to spend more time together so hopefully that will lead to confessing feelings.

THANK YOU for coming back. I had to start from
The beginning to remember what was going on, but it was worth it. I love this story, i love that the core of it is about a girl struggling to find herself and make the right decisions, i love that shes absolutely flawed - and i love james, and their slow building romance.
(I do hope ginny and albus are redeemed, as well, someday. Ginny loves her family but I dont think she would approve of someone being so falsely accused. McGonagall and Longbottom, as well. I saw them in canon as people who saw the best in people. And I want seth and al to be friends).

I have to say, the first chapter was awful. It took way too long to introduce the character. Her name, gender, age. First she was called Seth, which is fine but it made me think she’s a boy. It took way to much time until her name was finally introduced. Secondly her age. All that talk about her fist year and her looking like a 10 year old boy made me think she was just going to start her second year at Hogwarts. It wasn’t until the very end of the chapter where was written that she’s going to start her sixth.
Thirdly you introduced this Ella girl by name and appearances before the main character was properly introduced and then never appeared again. I thought she was Seth‘s little sister but then she wasn’t even mentioned anymore.
Also in the second chapter where Katie was showing up, it was way too mysterious. Instead of Seth going into the compartment that hold her best friend Katie, she went to sit with some unknown girl that suddenly changed into her friend. It was just not well written and got confusing.

But your writing style changed fast with the appearance of Sam. And boy, your story got me hooked. I love it. Especially the little characters you mentioned at one point and then sticked to them. I love Beatrize especially. It’s great how you manage to just mention some seemingly unimportant details that you come back later to for their plotlines. It was great how Seth observed Albus from the sidelines while he got into some weird lifealtering relationship. (I am still convinced that that is not over yet. Maybe it even has something to do with that bullying that happens to Seth)

What I don’t really like is how all the other girls are described as super stylish but ultra boy crazy dumbs. And James having a new girl every second is just way over the top. This hip london bar environment in the RoR reminded me a little too much of really bad American high school tv shows in witch 16 year old kids are played by 25 year old adults. It’s just too much high society talk in this school. Although I loved that she was there in her pyjamas. The running gag „pyjama girl“ makes me smile everytime Freddie turns up. (Btw. Your Freddie is awesome. I‘d love for him to get a bigger part)

It’s also kind of weird how McGonagal reacts to the rumors. She never really gave Seth the chance to defend herself. And the drama about the ingredients for the pregnancy test potion wasn’t really plausible. Why was it even illegal to brew the potion? It’s just a test not a termination potion. Charming all the pipes to puke out everything that didn’t belong there to find the culprit seems way too much. It kind of feels like an ultra conservative totalitarian regime. It’s not helpful at all for poor girls who actually are in that mess.

What bugs me a bit is the muggle culture that seems to have taken over Hogwarts without really being mentioned. It was never explained that and why they down‘t wear Hogwarts uniforms anymore. Barely anyone is described wearing a robe. And Seth is constantly wearing Skinny jeans which seems so odd since she is a pureblood. The rebelliousness is never really described by her wearing jeans but more them being ripped. Also in the last chapter she said that these pureblood boys were asking for her ‚number‘. That‘s just wrong. It doesn’t fit into this world. Especially since it was described in the second chapter (I think) that smartphones still don’t work in the magical world.

There is barely any magic happening in your story. James didn‘t even conjure some clothes after the bathroom incident to spare Seth the walk of shame. And in the Room of Requirement Katie and Seth could have just transfigured their clothes to look more decent. I know you needed it to go on with the story but it bugged me because it just doesn’t add up. Maybe James could have conjured an „I love Potter“- shirt for laughs. Or Seth could have been a bit bad at transfiguring her fluffy cat slippers so that they turned out to be fluffy sandals. Anything could have worked there.

Anyway. I‘m sorry, this turned out to be a bit more criticising than I actually intended. Apart from that I really do like this story a lot. I look forward to reading any upcoming chapters.

Great story! I was instantly swept up by seth and her story. I really like the underlying tensions with Sam and the mysteries of why awful things are happening to seth. The misunderstandings and miscommunication between them are postively torturous! I can almost compare it to my frustration with pride and prejudice lol. Can't wait for the next update
