Ch 7 note - go and finish the story, regardless of what HBP said. Perhaps add an author\'s note at the start of each chapter or the start of the story, saying \"Written before HBP, not HBP compliant\" or something like that. I too would appreciate more frequent updates, but real life comes first.....

Oh my god yes, please please please continue. You know, as I was reading book 6, I DID think, \"Clearly I have read too much fanfiction because this all sounds very familiar.\" However, I think it\'s bound to happen in a fandom this big, a thousand monkeys with their typewriters you know. Not that I have the money or would want to sift through every single story, but I\'d bet any money that at least one person will write some element into their fanfic that will feature prominently in book 7 before we hear a hint of what\'s to come. I\'m dying to see where you\'re going with this story and this pairing, and hopefully enough others do as well that you\'ll continue. I\'ll certainly be finding my way back here, no matter how long it takes between updates.

Marvelous story, I admire your style of writing. Please DO continue with it. Parallel or not, it is a fantastic work and deserves to be completed.

I would like to provide my opinions per your request. First, there is nothing wrong with you continuing with your story. Quite honestly, while J.K. Rowling created the world of Harry Potter, she is not the greatest of writers. Heck, she is not even a good writer, though she has gotten thankfully better. However, she is ingenuous with her creativity and imagination. You on the other hand is by far a better writer stylistically and analytically. Secondly, your story may have similar plot undertones with book 6, but it is not so identical as to warrant claims of plagarism or nasty comments. Your focus is completely different than Rowling\'s and you do it much with more character analysis. I hope you do continue on with your story, and try to ignore people who try to put you down. They are obviously illiterate because they are prone to write in gibberish. I\'m so glad there exists fanfiction writers who can write using correct grammar and original plots without resorting to the cliche, run-of-the-mill, sub-par bullshit that plague the fanfiction universe. Thank you from a reader who can actually read.

Please, please continue! I\'ve been really enjoying it ...
Most authors who\'ve stopped writing have done it because their stories are now AU. You\'re in a very odd position: a few tweaks and you could have a story that\'s completely in canon.
However, whether it\'s AU or canon, I don\'t care. Please, just keep writing it as you intended to, because it\'s really good.

Please continue. All fan fiction uses parts of the original, and all fan fiction is AU in some measure. This is a fine story, and I\'ve been looking forward to more of it. Would you be unnerved if you had posited a diary that wrote back at you and been overtaken by the Chamber of Secrets? In your story, Hermione is charged with tracking down and destroying the artifact(s) instead of Harry...onward! ;D

dear Quillusion
I hope. you continue your great story. I don`t care if your idea is similar to JKR`s book 6. It is not the same story!!!! It is a great as always story from Quillusion.
And when JKR stops writing after book7, I hope we can still expect some good stories from you. Long live your muse .

Well I had been reading this story, but thought you had abandoned it. It would be nice to have it finished to see what you had planned. This is fanfiction, thus you can write whatever you want whenever. I\'d hate to think I would have to wait until book 7 to finish reading this because by then I think many who were reading this will have certainly moved on. I can\'t even remember half this story and will probably have to start reading it from the begining.
