[FF] Trinity VI: The Blood (Type-Moon/Harry Potter X-over)

[YamiheKazeto]

Very true, but as you can see, getting Shin to obey them will not an be easy task.

I reckon the guy will die a few chapters before we reach the half-point of the last book. Just as the story will start picking the pace up, that is, and then our trio will have to deal with Tohnos unified more tightly than they ever were.

I never understood why Rowling didn't do that, actually. An entire school full of Slytherin types as potential antagonists, and they were never used - at least that she mentioned. Then again, she failed to mention a lot.

Because even with their "uh oh, we be evil" vibe, they aren't idiots, and to convince them to side with someone who has bigger plans, that person has to be charismatic, which Rowling's Tom was not. And there's also the fact that to even think of recruiting them, Tom would have to think about people as, you know, actual people (even if merely "people useful for my plans") instead of tools, like he did in Rowling's books.

Like any power-hungry sociopath, Riddle will support any philosophy or idea that will give him power, whether or not he actually believes it.

But then again, the political situation is very different from the one in Rowling's books. It wouldn't be easy for him to engineer a take-over of the whole wizarding nation of Britain, not with Bones as the minister and with ICW monitoring the situation. And since the support for muggle-borns is greater than in the original books, too, in the eyes of someone like him a thorough cleanse of the country might appear to be the better option. Moreover, there is a group of people with connections and rather high potential for wizarding magic that is actively trying to oppose him (that group being the original trinity), and they were actively trying to screw him over for the last ("at least", from his perspective, that is) three years.

Heck, Riddle can start to become like the big governments of today and start to make enemies... Go any farther and I'll start turning heads... I need to talk to different people xD

Been a while... was indesposed and I'm back with a vengeance.

I missed a lot and am happy to see Rin on board again. I just have one word for her students... SUFFER! Though a brains competition between Rin and Hermione would be quite funny...

Phew, finally caught up... dammit Kieran, I was suppost to study today!
Anyway, I'm very keen to see what happens next, and feel I must commend you for somehow making me actually read, let alone enjoy a HP fanfic...
As for the whole reason he never went to Durmstrang for reinforcements, well your Voldy is a lot smarter than Canon; It probably wouldn't even occur to the origional. Also, I believe that they were only what, 2 generations down from their last psycho dark wizard? Krum did mention in DH that he and his mates liked to beat on wannabe Grindelwalds after all...

Sorry.

You can do so here, if you haven't spotted it already.

That seems to be a common sentiment with this series . . . Not that I ever tire of hearing it - and thank you.

True - but I'll wager that the Hogwarts students liked to beat on the Slytherins for a while after Voldy's first defeat, too, and we can see how well that worked. Heck, just using the Nazis as a comparison point - we've got the term "neo-Nazi" for a reason.

More to the point, even after Grindelwald's defeat, and Voldemort's, Durmstrang's policies are still "we teach the Dark Arts, and no mudblood muggle-born students are accepted." The environment that spawned those two and their attitudes hasn't really changed even after two or three generations - so to my mind, that means that it's going to still be a fertile breeding ground for more people like them, however peaceful it might appear to be nowadays.

And Crouch had an entire school year to find them all . . .

Eh, since I am an infinitely kind, noble and generous soul, I suppose I can forgive you- after all, there wasn't really a need to read the whole fic in one day, now was there?

Fair point on Crouch having a year to work them over- that much time and the morons, esp in the wizarding world, are bound to come out of the woodwork.

Also I'm sure you've mentioned this, but why exactly does noone care that the Tohno commited kidnapping and attempted rape on foreign soil? Seems kinda odd...
Kudo's on writing them up as such great villains btw- I currently hold your Akiha in roughly the same level of regard as canon Shinji, and I've found that even by normal standards, I really don't like Shinji.

Anyways, off to read the next chapter I suppose, It wouldn't do to keep bumping the thread after all

No - but I can still be pleased and embarrassed about it.

Yup.

Check my notes regarding blood feuds and Britain's international status in The Twilight's first chapter and the subsequent commentary.

I don't like him, either, so I'm not sure whether or not to be pleased by that.

Anyways, off to read the next chapter I suppose, It wouldn't do to keep bumping the thread after all

No, I suppose not.
