If you check the older chapters, Harry unlocked the cloak's true properties in his first year, making it a lot more powerful.
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'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.
It is a very interesting comment. To answer your question, you have to remember that this is not cannon and so, I didn't really explain what being a maledictus means and that it might affect the mind as much as the body, like an unstable animagus transformation that doesn't take into account the mind or the difference in the brain's structure between the two forms. As far as she's concerned, Nagini was a snake in every way but staying near Voldemort made her cognizant enough to think like a human, which is why she was so attached to him.
I don't want to spoil too much since I go into detail on how the chamber works later, but a core mechanic is the appropriation of the wards surrounding the entrance. So, that means that any magical event in the bathroom could be detected by its master, aka Tom. There's a whole thing about the impact of magical ownership and its effect on wards, but I don't want to start a magical theory lesson. Good question though.
I’m sorry but this will be completely different from Canon. I won't go into detail to avoid spoiling things but you’ll understand when the year starts. I’m kinda planning something a little ambitious this year and the diary will play a critical role there. Honestly, just having Harry destroy the diary is a waste of potential since it's a very good plot source and could be used in many ways. So yeah, I’m done following Canon, so don't worry about that.

For those who are freaking out about me forcing canon in some way. I’m sorry but this will be completely different from Canon.

Sorry, but this will be completely different from Cannon. This I can confirm. I'm planning something kinda big with this year and Diary will be a critical part of it. I won't say anything more since I will be spoiling it, but yeah, I'm not following Cannon on this one.
I'm not really sure what that is, but it's more like he was obscessed with what could have been. Like being a spectator to what was technically his life story in canon. It's why he was hurt when Hermione chose Neville, the actual BWL, instead of him. He thought that since she was such a good friend to harry in canon, she would have been a good one to him, but he logically understood the reason why that was unlikely since they were in rival houses.
I never said that he should have been a Ravenclaw. He was sorted in Slytherin because of a single ambition that eclipsed everything. He wanted to be lived, to be remembered, to not die like he was before. That sort of trauma of knowing that literally no one would mourn him had marked him. That's his ambition which was far more potent than any intelligence, courage, or loyalty he might have.
Look, I understand your frustrations and you're perfectly right to have them, but you have to understand the context of this story. I designed this story with the idea of what a real insert would do in their place. People, normal people, at least, aren't brave and the world isn't going to work in their favor immediatly. The main premise is to have an emotionally repressed man that has lived an empty life, learn to actually live in a world of magic. If anyone suddenly was reincarnated as Harry Potter, they would be terrified. They wouldn't go about to challenge the literal Archmage that's basically in charge of an entire political faction for no reason, and they certainly wouldn't rock the boat towards the man who could literally ruin their life since they're a ward of the ministry. And he wouldn't really try to do it with Skeeter or the ministry. The only way would be to go to his enemies, which are 'imperioused Death Eaters'. Anyone in this situation would keep their head down and enjoy their life. What I've been trying to make in this year was essencially the MC accepting that he was going to be involved and learn to stop cowering from Canon. That was the entire purpose, as well as an introduction to the larger world of magic. He's not supposed to demolish governments at 11 and surpass the literal most powerful wizard in the country at 12. That's not how it works. It has to be gradual, but he'll get there. I'm making this story as an exploration of the world of magic, which is far larger than magical Britain. Honestly, my decision to have Dumbledore do the thing with the points isn't by random. There's a Dumbledore POV coming up and it will explain a lot of things, and that's when things derail. Already, in the second year, Harry is acting very differently and that's really the point of the story, to have the character learn and grow. He will start ignoring Neville and the golden trio and the story will be more about him. You noticed how the BWL was a big part of the first year because Harry was technically thinking about Canon and how to preserve and stay away. The moment he decided to just ignore Canon and just live his life, his obscession with the golden trio, which he denies to himself exists, fades away, and he starts to live his life, and not through Canon. I don't know if people really got where I wanted to go, but you can't really start a story with a perfect character. It would just be bland, and that irritation people feel when he makes a wrong decision wouldn't really be there. Characters need to change for the better or for the worst, and they need to resemble actual people instead of some bland personality that just wins all the time and where everything goes his way. I hope this clarified my decisions a bit.
