fact nightmares of futures past and backwards compatible are two of my favoriI've actually been avoiding stories with the words "second chance" in the title because there were a glutt of them on ff.net (I came across at least 3). Even though I like this type of story (and in tes) running into several stories titled "second chance" that were badly written put me off.
I'm glad however that I took a look at this one as I'm quite enjoying it :) Lots of humourous moments, and by far the most extreme early spin on events I've seen in any of the groundhog day stories(after the movie). I hope you plan to keep this going. Of course you've spun things around so much that I have no idea what's going to happen next, but I must say that's far preferrable to those stories that stay too close to the original after introducing an AU element.
Curious to see where the H/Hr is headed as well (which though you haven't commited to it you've given the reader a strong impression that you're leaning towards it) but as you're working with them so young I'm not entirely convinced you'll be writing this story line long enough to see them to that age.
I wonder if Draco will even end up on the quiditch team this time... Let's face it, he bought his way onto the team and never once beat Harry to the snitch that I can remember. The turn around with his personality is by far the most unexpected aspect of the story. I guess it goes to the idea that the younger you get to someone the more likely you can influence them...
Anyway, looking forward to the next chapter (though I still think you might want to rethink the title.) :)
Author's response
And here I thought I was being original (as mentioned, I only know of one, incomplete story in this genre before psoting on schnoogle). Remember, Harry is (mentally & emotionally) about 19 or 20 at this point in the story, while Hermione is about 14 or 15 (since she was combined with her ghost from the alternate future).
Draco might have a shot at the Quidditch team his third year.
