Ahhh!! Who is it? The Ravenclaw prefect with healing powers? The ghost of Ravenclaw?? Agg!! And there aren't any more chapters to read!! Well, I was laughing at his potion accident. Although, I really dislike how many authors treat Slytherins only as the house of evil, I find your take on them to be humorous. I'm still curious about the music and I'm starting to wonder if he might have gotten the wrong wand or something. I do hope you update soon. You have me wondering about the music. Great hook to keep your readers returning. Good luck on this story and all your future writing endeavors. I'm adding this story to my list of favorites and hope to be able to read an update soon.

Another great chapter. I am so glad Hugo is growing into his own peer group and stepping away from his family. I wonder what type of friendship could be brewing between him and Eliana? The visit to Hagrid's was a great read. It's nice to see him with people from other houses as well. I didn't really notice any misspelled words. I'm glad Hugo is continuing to research about the music. It has me curious as well. Makes me wonder if it has anything to do with why he hasn't begun any magic yet. I love how detailed and long your chapters are. They flow really well. I can't wait to read the next one.

Again, a great chapter but I did notice a few misspelled words: magical habileties and many possibileties. It didn't take away from the story but did catch my attention. I love the meeting he had with Prof. Flitwick. I'm so glad he is beginning to grow and meet new friends even if they are outside of his house. I hope he continues to research the music. I'm curious about that as well. Again, a great chapter filled with details about life at the school. I love the description of the Ravenclaw common room and dorms, though I failed to mention that in my previous review for chapter 2. Can't wait to finish reading the next chapter.

Awww, poor Hugo! I've been there before, feeling that you didn't belong. I spotted a few mistakes sprinkled throughout but honestly couldn't find them again to point them out. I love how they all had a family meeting and how Hugo was still invited even though he is in a different house. I hope he comes into his own soon. Reading the final paragraphs was very depressing. I hope he isn't a squib! How would he have made it to Hogwarts? Can't wait to read chapter three and still trying to figure out the connection with the music.

This was a great read! Very descriptive and captivating to say the least. I'm glad you included the little details about whose parents were whose because I'm not a big Next Gen fan so I really don't remember whose kid is whose, lol. I've never read a story where Hugo was sorted into Ravenclaw. I'm excited to find out about the music and what significance it has, if any, to the story. I didn't see any mistakes except once near the front where you used hers instead of his but it didn't take away from the story any. Again, a great beginning and I can't wait to read more.

Hello again! Here to leave my final review on this story before my identity is revealed! :P

HUGO CAN DO MAGIC. I was a little confused as to whether this was wandless or not. I didn't notice any reference to him having performed the spell with a wand, but I was unsure whether this was what you intended. I remember that young children can often perform certain magic, but that must be wandless too, as they only get their wand aged 11. Ah well, either way, I was pleased that the Slytherins were covered in that potion, aha.

One thing I did find a little unlikely in this chapter was the lack of awareness outside of first year. Lily said that the whole year was talking about it, and the Prefect had no idea what had happened. To me, I would have expected the story to spread more like wildfire by the time that the Prefect questioned him.

I did think that the ending to this chapter was brilliant! When he was being chased by the Slytherins, I wondered where he might go to escape them, and thought you might even make him conveniently bump into the Weasleys. I was pleased that you didn't though, and I like the mystery and intrigue that you've left at the end of this chapter.

I will definitely be coming back to review chapter six once you update!

 Report Review

... and I'm back again!

I think the stand-out thing in this chapter for me was Eliana. I like the fact that you chose to centre this chapter a little more on their growing friendship, because that's obviously what's been lacking for Hugo at the minute. I think you did a great job throughout all of the speech when adding in blushing, looking away etc. during the more awkward areas.

As for Connor, his enthusiasm is certainly undeniable and I like that he's perhaps not the first person that you'd think Hugo would make friends with. Hugo's comment about Hagrid keeping a dragon in his hut made me smile too. :)

I loved your example of logical thinking on the question to enter the Common Room. The way he worked out that it wasn't time related, told himself that and then thought about it from a different angle was a cool addition I thought. I sat and thought about it for a moment, but I didn't get that answer, so I'll say it once again, it's a good thing that I'm in Gryffindor!

What is a friend? That topic was a surprise to read in here, but when I was reading them debate the point, I sat and considered what I myself would consider a frund. I agree more with Hugo- I feel like you must be able to trust somebody and know them fairly well before you can consider them a frund. Before that... I'm not sure. I think that providing such a thought-provoking question for the reader was brilliant. :)

 Report Review

And the plot thickens...

I'm REALLY wondering what this music is now, and I think it's only natural that Hugo would go to the library in search of answers. I do wonder if it's something that's affecting his magic though.

I really like how you've managed to turn Hugo into such a quiet person, yet somebody who is also extremely aware and mature. I feel like a lot of stories have a main character who is always in the limelight, or who isn't that mature or quiet. It definitely makes a nice change to read it this way :)

I am glad that he made some friends in this chapter though, and the part where they all went to visit Hagrid was great. I liked the idea of one of the other characters being the most interested in animals too. It seems like the formation of a new set of friends for Hugo, but I still wonder whether he makes any friends within the other friendship group within Ravenclaw.

I'll be back to review chapter four soon!

 Report Review

Wow! This chapter was excellent again!

Poor Hugo, not being able to do any magic yet. :/ Whenever that happens, I can't imagine it to be fun because everyone is so excited and wants to be able to do SOME magic as soon as, so it must not be nice to be the last who is able to do it. :/

I didn't manage to get the riddle. That was hard! I guess I'm glad I'm not a Ravenclaw, and that I can wear my Gryffindor badge with pride! I think that collective nervousness to answer in front of everybody would be something very real that a lot of them would have felt, so I thought that was a superb idea :)

The Weasleys' meeting... I really, really enjoyed that idea, with them all sit in a circle of armchairs talking, joking and whatever else. Their rules and code was definitely an interesting idea, and on the whole, I find it a really nice idea to make happen. :)

There were a few spelling mistakes I noted here and there, so maybe it would be worth running this over with a spell checker or a beta. :)

Awesome job though!

Hi! Hope you had a Merry Christmas!

I'll start with the burning question I have- which is about the noise he can hear on the platform and on the train. I know better than to expect to find out, but I can't wait to see how that develops. It's definitely something that held my interest through the chapter. :)

I really liked the ideas that you had in here, that are different to so many stories! The howler idea was excellent, and I loved the code that George had devised. I thought the chat between Albus and Hugo was great, because as well as giving an insight into both characters, it was nice to see that he had had the choice as well.

I'm wondering how the next chapter is going to go, and if he'll make some friends within Ravenclaw... or even an enemy :P But I really enjoyed this chapter!

Good job!

 Report Review

Aw, that part where Hugo is wondering if Connor actually wants to spend time with him, willingly is so moving.

Hugo's implied that at least one of his other uncles is involved in the shop. Interesting.

*grins* Hugo is GOOD at the eagle's questions.

Eliana seems smart and insightful. I like her.


*laughs at "I don't think Hagrid keeps dragons in his hut"* He has been known to do so!

This is a small thing, but doesn't Hagrid say "yeh", meaning "you" rather than "ye"? I keep reading "ye" as being pronounced to rhyme with "bee" and being the word we use for the plural version of "you" here in Ireland. I don't think he said that in the books.

Hmm, I wonder if there's a mystery about Eliana and why she doesn't come in the common room often.

And I'm really intrigued by this music. Synaesthesia is the only explanation I can think of and I'm not sure if that really fits.

I'm with Hugo rather than Flitwick on the idea of friendship. I think a friend is somebody you can trust, somebody you know well, somebody who you can tell how you truly feel. People whose company you enjoy, but who you wouldn't feel comfortable confiding in or who you aren't sure how close they feel to you are more friendly acquaintances in my mind. Or people you'd LIKE to be friends with. I read somewhere that the average person has two friends, which seems about right to me.

When talking about wizard's chess, you've written "loosing" instead of "losing".

Wizards don't seem to have a great variety of pastimes actually. It might be just because we've only really seen what Harry is interested in, but they only seem to have one major sport, a limited number of types of music, no electronics, obviously, a couple of board games and card games, but nothing like the variety of THOSE the Muggle world has either, no cinemas. We also haven't heard of any novels or theatres, although these MAY exist; Harry just mightn't be interested in them.

Just caught up with your story and I have to say that I am loving it. The only thing I would say is that I think you need to proof-read a little better cos this chapter in particular is littered with spelling mistakes that are a little distracting. The story though is first-class, can't wait for updates!

Author's Response: I do agree with you about the proof-reading. I wanted to get this chapter in before the queue closed and I admit that I didn't really check it out so much. I also know that I need a beta to help me out; being French, spelling and grammar errors slip by me easily!!

Hi Akussa!

I’m so sorry it’s taken so long for me to get back to you with my half of the Holiday Review Swap! Real life, meh. But I’m glad I’m back, because this chapter was adorable! I really enjoyed reading it. When I’m reviewing I just write notes down, so I’m sorry if this review seems a little rambly or out of the right order.

I really liked seeing Hugo and Lily being truly childlike in their excitement and nerves and innocence. Often, the ‘Next Gen’ are portrayed as being fully formed adults in 11 year old bodies, so I enjoyed your portrayal of them as children. You also captured the hustle and bustle of Platform 9 & ¾ really nicely, it made me feel all excited. I *loved* the relationship between Hugo and his uncle George, it’s a beautiful stroke of inspiration; I’m glad George remains mischievous despite the things he’s gone through.

Rose is a perfect blend of both her parents - I love your characterization of her. She’s got Granger brains but a Weasley attitude to life... a dangerous and exciting combination! You’d think it would be quite a lot for Hermione and Ron to deal with, but I love their parenting style as portrayed in this chapter. I thought it was a very poignant and realistic touch that Ron would make sure his kids know how fortunate they are to get new robes. I also liked the allusion towards Hermione worrying about Hugo hearing things that aren’t there - it reminded me of her stressing at Harry over the basilisk voice, his scar and his dreams. It’s a very nice bit of characterization that shows me you really know and care about these characters. One thing stood out though - Hermione calling her son ‘baby’. That struck me as a little American, or at least, not very Hermione-ish!

The little mention of Harry and Ginny’s ruthless and hilarious way of dealing with James’s bad behaviour at school made me laugh so much. It’s really imaginative and enjoyable.

Poor Uncle Percy! Hahaha. I feel sorry for him, but that bit did make me laugh. I’m not close to my own cousins, so it was cool to see the Potters and Weasleys taking care of each other.

I love that the method of Sorting remains a mystery to the young ones - I always wondered why ickle Ron wouldn’t know that it’s a Hat, but it makes sense that it’s kept a secret from kids before they go to Hogwarts. Part of the experience, I guess!
I thought it was interesting that you mention primary schools throughout this chapter. Will there be more about this? It’s usually understood that children are homeschooled until Hogwarts (which always seems a bit crazy to me!).

With all the build up that there is, I was a little surprised that we don’t get to see Hugo realising what the Sorting Ceremony entails. I think you could include a nice moment there. I thought the hat sliding down little Creevey’s head was a very nice nod to his poor little uncle.

I found the Weasley fear of ‘not belonging’ to be fascinating. They come from a large, loving, inclusive family and it actually makes perfect sense that they (even Bill! Even Fred and George!) would be nervous about going to a new ‘home’ where they don’t automatically belong.

I love reading about Sortings. It automatically makes for an exciting, tense chapter... but you’ve also succeeded in making it a warm, fuzzy, lovely chapter. It was good to see Hugo and Lily agreeing to be friends and meet up etc - I think interhouse friendships should appear in FF more.

I noticed a few misspellings - The first time you mention Hufflepuff, the ‘L’ and the ‘E’ are the wrong way around. When Hagrid is calling the kids to the boats, I believe it should be ‘first years’, rather than ‘first year’. And ‘Olivanders’ should be ‘Ollivander’. Finally, there was one that really made me giggle - someone gives an 'apoplectic' smile; I think you mean ‘apologetic’. Apoplectic means ‘furious’ ;)

This chapter was very enjoyable, it was warm and sweet, and I could see your affection for the characters. Your Hugo is adorable. You’ve also given us a mystery to wonder about - that music! I giggled to myself, because I wondered if Hugo was hearing the movie soundtrack :P I’m intrigued. I may well be back soon to read on!

Thanks for the swap! Ho ho ho!

Heya!

Perelandra here with your review! So sorry it has taken a while...life. However, better late than never, right! :D

The first thing I enjoyed seeing was the length of the chapter. I'm coming across a lot of 1.5K word chapters and I wonder how they can move a story forward with so little to say. The narrative had a wonderful flow to it to where it didn't feel like it was over 5K words. I wasn't scrolling and skimming the chapter just to get it done and over with.

A clap on the left shoulder meant 'do not move, I'm slipping illegal stuff in your pockets'.---I could not stop laughing from that line.

OMG I love you for making Rose normal! Not the studious, goody-two shoes, replica of Hermione. Just the other day I was wondering if I read anything with Rose just being just like Ron. And alas, you made it better! She reminds me of Fred and George and I love it.

So I got curious as to how old Hagrid is here...he would be around 90 so I cannot imagine Hagrid all white haired and wrinkly. Hahaha.

I was surprised as all when you sorted him into Ravenclaw! I really thought you were going to make him a Slytherin, to be honest but I'm excited he went to another house. Its unique that you went that way considering that he's either sorted into Gryffindor or Slytherin, haha.

And wow! Olivander is STILL having children.

Anyway! I really enjoyed reading this! The detail is fantastic. You managed to set the mood amazingly well and I was able to picture everything in my head without any issues. You have a bit of spacing issues towards the end, but its no biggie at all. And as far as I could tell, you had absolutely no grammar nor punctuation problems.

I actually want to know what happens next so I'm adding this to my favorites! :)

Thanks for the swap!

Author's Response: Hi and there's no problem with the time of your review; I am a specialist of getting swept away by real life!!

First, I think you just left me the best comment ever. I was so afraid that people would think that my chapters were too long because, like you, I usually see some 1.5K chapters long and I ask myself the same thing. This story however, just wants to have long chapters, no matter how much I try, I can never find the right place to cut the chapter before I reach about 5k... You've just reassured me that there will be some people reading it none the less.

Ah yes, Rose being just like her mother is one thing that annoys me as well (and then Hugo being just like Ron, of course) so I tried to mix things up a bit. Rose is definitly a bit more like the twins were back in the days!

You made me realise that I did not describe Hagrid in that part and, yes, I imagine him just like that! With salt and pepper colored hair and wrinkles around his eyes! I'm not sure how old giants live to be so, I would need to check that out...

I decided to send Hugo to Ravenclaw because I rarely see any stories where the main character is there. Plus, it allowed me to explore something that will be the main theme of this story : what intelligence really means. There are all sorts of intelligence and being a Ravenclaw doesn't mean simply being gifted at the academic level, it has to mean more, there has to be some students that show different types of intelligence. At least, that's my opinion!

Olivander is NOT still having children!! Jade is his great-grand-daughter actually. I didn't explain it clearly (thanks for making me realise it!) but in my mind, the book Olivander has now left his shop in the hands of his grandson, Jade's father.

I will check the spacing issue when the queue re-opens and I thank you once again for this lovely review, it really made my day!

 Report Review

Shouldn't the names of the subjects begin with capital letters?

Also, Professor Flitwick says "I was very gald to see you sorted into Ravenclaw." *grins*

Ha, ha, I completely agree with Flitwick. I was just going to say I thought Hugo seemed very mature for his age. Love their conversation and the insights Hugo shows.

Flitwick refers to Hugo's "habilities" rather than "abilities".

I'm looking forward to finding out what's going on with Hugo's magic. This is quite an intriguing story and a really unusual one.

Author's Response: Hi again!

First, thanks for letting me know of the errors you spotted, I'll correct them as soon as the queue re-opens!

Hugo is definitly a bit more mature than the rest of his classmates. He's of a quiet nature, one that prefers to reflect on what's going on around him rather than getting involved (if that makes sense). That makes him a strange Weasley for sure but he is definitly a Granger!

I'm so pleased that the music is intriguing you! We'll figure out pretty soon what's going on with Hugo and, although it will make sense, dealing with it will be another thing!

Thanks again for the review :)

Keen O'Brien. That sounds like an Irish name, or at least the surname does and I guess the first name could be an Anglicisation of Cian.

You've written that "the others seemed to thing along the same lines". I'm guessing you mean "think".

Yikes, that was a hard riddle. I read it through a couple of times, but couldn't come up with anything. My original thought was a family, as a family contains your "roots", but then I thought that families DO grow and the part about taller than a tree didn't really fit either.

Really like your description of Ravenclaw.

"Professor" should have a capital "P" when it precedes a name, like "Professor Stebens".

You know, as well as seeing what house people put various characters in, I really like seeing how different people portray the first day of classes - what teachers they have teaching the various subjects (since Herbology is about the only one we know for sure who teaches it) and what their classes are like.

Hmm, I wonder could Hugo have that condition - is it called synaesthesia or something? - where people's senses get mixed up. It might make him hear colours. It wouldn't explain why he heard music at the station though or why he didn't seem to hear it elsewhere. Just considered it because of how trying to colour change the sock seemed to cause him to hear music.

One thing that sounds a bit weird is when Molly is talking about what houses they are in and so on, she says "any different". "Any differences" would seem to make more sense.

You've also written "you will discover example of this" about the rule "what happens in Hogwarts stays in Hogwarts." I presume it should be "examples".

Hmm, that part about him not showing any magic is interesting. I kind of doubt he'd get to Hogwarts if he was a Squib though. I think there's something more mysterious going on here. Interesting.

Author's Response: Hi again!

First off, thanks for pointing out those errors, I'll correct them as soon as the queue re-opens.

You're right, Hugo isn't a Squib, he's just having difficulties adjusting right now due to various reasons...

Thanks again for the review, I'm happy you seem intrigued by my story so far :)

 Report Review

Hmm, I wonder what that music is. Intriguing.

*laughs* That sounds so typical of George.

Yikes, Ron just expects him to be sorted into Gryffindor. This might not end well. Quite a different reaction from Harry's in the epilogue, but that makes sense, because Ron tends to speak without thinking.

*laughs at Ginny and Harry's plan* Love the way you show Ron and Hermione's differing priorities.

In the paragraph about James's Howler, you've written Hogwarts as Howgarts.

Really like the way you've characterised Albus here.

Hmm, Hugo sounds like a possible Hufflepuff, although the next chapter is called something like Weasleys and Ravenclaws, which could indicate that he'll be a Ravenclaw. Looking forward to finding out.

One other mistake I noticed was that Hugo says something like "my year in more brawny than brainy." I'm assuming it should be "is" and not "in".

Aw, love Lily worrying about whether being in different houses will affect their friendship.

Ron won't be happy. I'd say Hermione will be thought.

Great start to the story. Now to read on.

Author's Response: Hi!

This intrigue will be a nice distraction for the coming chapters, I'm glad it got you curious :)

Harry and Ginny's plan was so absurd - and pretty much the only way a parent can discipline their kid while he's away for the school year! Of course, it's nothing too horrible but just a little shame usually helps putting a kid back into the right track... for a while!

I will check out that error, thanks for pointing it out :)

Ron won't mind, he'll be worried about his son because he knows how quiet and not too social Hugo is but there's nothing to be ashamed of being a Ravenclaw, right?

Thanks for the review!

Awh!

You've created a character that just instantly warms your heart... like eggnog... though I've never tried it, I have to admit. :P Anyway, he's obviously nervous, but he's also inquisitive and there are parts of his character that is so Hermione and Ron!

Whilst I'm thinking of it, at one point you wrote '9 Slytherin. 10 Slytherin. 11 Gryffindor', when I think you mean '9 Slytherin. 10 Gryffindor. 11 Hufflepuff.' Just thought I'd mention it :) Oh! And this is a very small thing, but I noticed it in my friend's work yesterday (she's also French) and she ended a question with 'no?' i.e. 'What do you mean I’m Hugo Weasley and no matter what, I will still be, no?' - I've heard people use 'right?' instead more often, though I've no clue if it's a cultural thing at all. :P Just thought I 'd mention it as it felt slightly 'out' from his character. But, I'm tired, so please ignore me if I'm making no sense!

You've got me extremely intrigued into the 'music' - what is it?! Can anyone else hear the music? I can't wait to read how Hugo settles in and starts to make friends. I've a feeling he'll be playing the 'unlikely hero', and good on him - it's about time someone other than a Gryffindor got the herolight :P

Anyway, a great start to what sounds like a very intriguing story! Merry Christmas, Akussa! :)

Author's Response: Aw, I'm so glad you like my Hugo! He's just an innocent eleven years old kid that has a bit of difficulties dealing with his insecurities.

Thanks for pointing this out, I'll check it out! And I agree, it's a cultural thing; or a direct translation maybe since this is how we ask the question in French, but I will change it now that I know it's wrong :)

It will take some time for Hugo to adjust fully but in his own time, he will and I'm just so happy that people seem to agress with my anti-hero type of character! Not only Gryffindors can be heros!

Thanks so much for this lovely review and Merry Christmas to you too :)

This is a great second chapter!

First of all, I was completely engrossed the entire time, a lot of times I review as I go but I was just sat reading the entire time! :)

I feel so bad for Hugo, he's so isolated from everything he's known and it's even worse that all the people in his class seemingly went to the same primary school. He clearly does very well in school, especially in herbology where he has some comfort level with the subject matter.

And he hasn't shown any signs of magic yet? Poor Hugo. I mean he has to be a wizard, he got his Hogwarts letter, right? Poor thing :( I feel so bad for him!

I love this idea of the Weasley family meeting in the room of requirement though, that's super unique and cool, and like a little part of all their parents that has been passed down. They really are a tightly knit family so it's cool to see them together, and again really cool of them to accept Hugo despite him being in another house.

Over all I thought this was very enjoyable. It flowed well and you get a good sense of how isolated poor little Hugo is. I hope things get better for him soon!

Great chapter!

Author's Response: Thanks so much!

Yep, Hugo is very, very alone and not that good at making friends on his own (it was usually Lily that did all of the talking!) so it will be somewhat difficult for him to make his place in this House.

The family meetings are so much fun to write. I just love the idea of them having a code of conduct and agreeing to keep things secret from their parents. It's something we had with my cousins when we were teenagers, just a protection so that no one would let anything slip out during family gatherings!! They aren't all best friends of course, but they tolerate each other and will help each other out.

Things will get better for Hugo at some point but reality is hitting him hard right now. Too much stress coming from different sides and he doesn't know how to cope yet.

Thanks again for the review, I'm really happy that you liked this chapter as well :)

This is intreging, it's nothing like your normal next-gen school story. I wonder what he has to find out about himself, about 'Hugo'.

"Hugo?" Lily asked with a small voice, tugging on his arm, "will you still be my friend even if you're in Ravenclaw?" This. So sad, but it's not in a way but it still made me feel sorry for her and go aww. She's lost her best friend and even though she appeared to be full of life and talkative at the start, it's nice that she has a quieter side.

Hugo seems interesting, a little quiet but I do feel sorry for him. He's been seperated from his family and he hasn't really spoken to anyone in his year yet. I hope he makes at least one friend though!

A nicely written story though, you've got a good start and set the scene nicely for what I'm sure will be an interesting storyline. Gret job! :)

Author's Response: Hi! And thanks so much for this lovely review!

No, it is definitly not like your regular next-gen story and that was basically my main guideline : be different!

Hugo has a lot to learn about himself, mostly, that he is worth something. He's the kind of kid that keeps to the shadows and doesn't like to be the center of attention and in his family, where most of his cousins fight to be in the spotlight, he gets forgotten sometimes and just goes along with the flow instead of giving his ideas and opinions.

Lily, no matter how extrovert she might be, is still just an eleven years old girl who had not anticipated being separated from her best friend.

Thanks for the review!
