somewhat fun, but nothing new or good.

It isn't horribly written, but the story as a whole is kind of useless. Adult Harry physically teleports to his childhood accidentally, and acts very OOC, fixing all of the main character's problems, including some that the author created himself, gives his younger counterpart some unsolicited advice, and ends the story with a few paragraphs amounting to 'and they all lived happily ever after.'

There are fun parts to the story, but some of the scenes are truly inane and pointless. In one scene, Adult Harry corrects younger Harry's idea that a hero has to fight to the death, which is an idea that Harry never expressed in canon. In another, Adult Harry reveals that Ginny is psychotic and has been doping Harry with love potion for years.

Some of these sections are so laughably pointless that a part of me wonders if the story isn't a parody of similar fics... but I seriously doubt it.
