Short review this time.
As usual love the story but it baffles me to all hell that the Wizangot is wasting there resources prosecuting the savior of their world when they could be going after the remaining death eaters or trying the already captured ones....coughcoughLuciuscough. It just seems like they have got there priorities mixed up in what should be an open and closed case of accidental bond forming when they should be just moving to the Slytherin trials and other important matters. Also I may have asked this before so forgive me if I did, but are they going to try and put the rest of Slytherin house on trial as well? Or are they just focusing on the ones in Harry's bond first and singling them out due to there association with him?
On the subject of Veritaserum, would the condemned really be given a choice in the matter? I mean it seems like that would be the first step to ensure that the person being convicted does not lie. Quick and easy and resolve a truck load of problems. Cuts out the middle man and gets straight to the meat of the matter. Now it might just be my seething disdain for the man but if Lucius took the stand I would dump an almost unhealthy amount of the stuff down his throat and have him tell me things that would even condemn the pope.
I figured that the subject of Harry holding on to the remaining bonds would come up since he can now release people at will. The bond messes with all of there heads and even when you know you're being influenced you just have to go with it. And the bond might have given Harry a few nifty new tricks but he is not some pseudo-god who can make his own rules and domains in this fic so he has to work that much harder to ensure that he and his vassals survive this ordeal and get some semblance of a future.
Now about "politics" coming up every so often...........I am running out of whiskey damn it. I was being 100% serious when I said I would take a shot every time the a word even pertaining to politics came up lol. And I get it, we have discussed it before that a lot of your fics have political angles in them. I am curious though considering her background and how the post war world views Slytherins that even with Harry's possible backing, just how far exactly Pansy is going to get in her dreams of politics. And speaking of Pansy, is the guy who tried to attack her still around? I take it you are saving him for when her turn comes up in the trial. Wouldn't put it past the Wizengot to take off the kid gloves and throw all of her past mistakes in her face Along with the other Slytherins. Although I imagine Draco is going to have it worse, Harry has the grateful portion of the wizarding world at his back, Draco has made faaaar to many enemies and will have to shows some serious humility when his time comes to face the court. That kid needs to do some serious soul searching and figure out what he wants to make of his life now that it is no longer dictated by his father or a madman.
-waits patiently for the next chapter-

ok,i am on chapter four as i just found this. i seriously hate ginny weasley. i know you have stated it is harry/ draco, and for that i am very grateful. his pairing with that red headed wench just drove me batty. also, ron has abandoned him several times and has jealousy and envy issues, i don't like him either. *laughs* i know you have written a lot of this already, but i am hoping they aren't going to feature in it at ALL. the only weasleys i actually like are fred and george after they left the school, and charlie and his dragons. *hands you scones*

Harry's doing pretty good by accident or on purpose right now. I'd love to see him really put everyone in their place!! And Severus...please...he's trying to help you too...lighten up and think of something to help.

I like how you write Harry's mind. The steel and determination is not something we see often in the stories. I like the interaction, your details are always delightful and provocative. I can't wait for more... you are definitely one of the few authors I read with WIPs... Nice job through the entire story. This chapter is great. Theory is an interesting choice for the trial to use against logic and facts, but I guess even the high and mighty have to stoop to scraping the bottom of the barrel when they are desperate.

The wizengot that makes me like Voldemort more, At least he wasn't trying to pretend he wasn't evil when it was obvious that he was.

Chpt 38-40: Enjoying the story. Glad we're into the trial now. I like Greg and think he may be more help than anyone expects. Severus worries me. I wish he would relax and be more understanding of Harry.

Well. A helpful Skeeter; I'd forgotten about that earlier deal she and Harry made. Nice of her to warn Harry, even if she has her own agenda.
