Yes

If you check the older chapters, Harry unlocked the cloak's true properties in his first year, making it a lot more powerful.

It's explained later but there is a compelling reason

He never did in this AU, and I don't think that it's explicitely said that he did in canon, only that he 'jumped' to the roof, which can be explained in a lot of different ways.

Sorry, not really close...

It's a good idea, and I'm happy you found the loophole. However, it's not exactly a loophole, I specifically wanted it this way. I won't comment on it further, since it will have some major spoilers. Just wanted to say, that I'm kinda impressed you found it, tbh.

yes

I know it’s kind of repetitive but I am trying something kinda new with Sirius and Grindelwald. The whole thing won’t resolve itself in this school year. The thing with his friends is temporary so you don’t have to worry about that.

There are three 'epilogue chapters'. I might do more if I get an idea but that's it.

I'll be honest, I sort of dragged out the summer so that I could have time to plan the third year properly. I had some personal issues and I didn't really have time to do it. This chapter and the one before were supposed to be just a single one but they sort of dragged out when I wrote them so I separated them. The third year is sort of my most ambitious arc yet, especially since we're fully off-canon, so writing is getting more and more difficult. I know that it got slower, but things will pick up rather quickly soon.
