Great Story :)

I was going to save it to my IE favorites but then realised you haven't updated in more than 7 months, guess this ones not going to be finished :'(

Oh well in my ending its Carrisa who was embezzelling money, Harry comes back and gets supremely jealous, never really gets over it, Ron and Hermione finally get hitched and Draco and Ginny live happily every after.

Back to studying for me.

Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Oh woman of little faith…It will be updated. Just not too soon. Interesting ending…I'm afraid you'll just have to see where it really goes.

Damn the busy Lush Lives you two lead. I'm longing for the next chapter, particularly after having been taunted with official story progress on the forums. Is there hope of an update in the near future? *bats eyelashes*

Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: *snerk* Is that what we are calling our insane-o lives this week? And Ves says SORRY. It's her fault for the delay.

I *adore* reading this fic. I have lost count the number of times I have re-read it; mostly just the last chapter in hopes that number 14 will be up soon, but sometimes, such as now, all 13 of them.

The Draco/Ginny banter is very entertaining and the underlying plot draws the reader in, eager to find out more about Draco's interest in Ginny.

I hope that there will be more posted up soon!

Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Sorry for the wait but thanks for reading and reviewing!

It was deffentally the part about the mange that got me going this time :-) But hey, it's still late, and this is still wonderful story

Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: *snerk* We rather liked the bear with mange. Glad you did too.

This is amazing thus far. Also, it is very late at night, which is probably way the line "minor kerfuffle" had me laughing for three minutes non stop :-)

Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Kerfuffle is a great word. The more you say the easier the reality is to handle. Thanks!

Aaargh, It's been a pretty long time since I came and checked out this story and I'm sad you haven't updated yet! =(

Please, Please, Please, Please UPDATE SOON!!! Don't leave us all in suspense and with an endless story! That's cruel and sick and twisted! =D

Note: I am not demanding you update, I'm just getting down on my knees and begging like there's no tommorrow.. ;D

Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: The difference has been duly noted and if you are a sharp-eyed reader, you may have noticed that these comments often show up right before a new chapter does.

hey wassup! oh mah gosh i like read this months ago and i was so hoping for the ending...pls the suspense is killing me!!! it's a great story!

Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: The ending? Wow. That’s still a long ways down the road, but let’s see what we might be able to do about a new chapter, shall we?
Name: Fallen_Angel reviewed Chapter Thirteen – The Official Dessert of Super Secret Meetings on Oct 03, 2007 04:41 pm
Oh, It was so very good, but where's the rest? Please consider updating fast, the suspense is killing me and I need to know what's going on!

Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: We got right on that considering updating thing…and well, I guess we will work on actually updating.
Name: vjcbs reviewed Chapter One – Narcissa’s Assets on Oct 03, 2007 12:30 am
Definitely one of my favorites!!! Not only is it ridiculously funny and charming but it's also very cohesive, which I find to be rare in fics with more than one author. Keep up the good work!

Author's Response: Ves says: Honestly? When I read back over this, there are very few parts where I can say with confidence “I wrote that bit and Myn wrote this bit over here. It’s been a joy working with Myn and I’m as surprised as anyone just how well our ideas dovetail.rn

rnMyn says: I'm totally not surprised - we're psychic sisters, if not full twins. But I think, too, that the cohesiveness flows naturally from talking out the plot on the phone before we sit down to write. We both know the gist of what's going to be written before we start writing, and so then it's just a game where we alternately set the other up for a real zinger or for a 'get out of this one, muahahaha!' moment.rn

This is such a well-written story. It's clear that you either have experience in these fields or that you have done thorough research. Either way, the details that you add about working in a marketing, PR, or research branch of a corporation make you seem like you have authority. I love, love, love the relationship between Ginny and Draco. Everything from the first description of their interactions "cat-a-mouse with the bosses offspring" in the first chapter to Ginny slamming the door in his face as she scrambled to get erady for her dinner to this casual teasing... it all just flows so well. I am so glad to have stumbled across this story. I have to read more of it whenever you guys update.

Author's Response: Ves says: I am tickled that this is ringing true. Do you have some experience in those fields yourself? I’ve always been interested in advertising and PR – mostly from a Psych perspective – and it’s been fun coming up with the little details that help keep this real. Well, as real as any story with wizards and magical makeovers can be. Thanks so much!rn

rnMyn says: I have to admit to working from general knowledge out of movies and novels and the occasional foray into the financial news. My real life corporate experience is sadly nil. So, yay for faking it!rn

You know, we really should update this someday. What's your schedule look like?

Author's Response: Ves says: Pretty open and yeah, we should get back to this. Also, we should stop talking to each other in the comments. It’s…silly.rn

rn Yes'm.rn

LOVED this story. Really good plotline. Draco is mad sexy as always. Could you add some smut prettyplease. and the embezzlement thing seems a bit bland..just a little though it isnt ruining the story. I'll keep on reading and see what happens
:)

Author's Response: Ves says: Bland? I think I’m wounded. Give us time, dearie, and then we’ll see what you think of the embezzlement stuff.rn

rnMyn says: Sorry, but there probably won't be smut in this story. If at some point I get a wild hair and write some smut in this universe, it would be posted separately - but don't hold your breath.rn

Ladies, I "demand" you pretty pretty please update? haha, sorry, I suppose I shouldn't joke. You ladies have done a wonderful job keeping the nature of the characters true, and expanding them in a wonderful way! I just read the whole she-bang in one sitting and it's going on my favourites.
Please update soon, but make sure you take LOTS of time for yourselves... Don't want you to get burned out!

Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Thrilled you been enjoying this and thanks for the understanding. We love writing this but that pesky real life thing gets in the way far too often.

Aww, I love it! It's so damn funny! You guys make an excellent team Ves and Myn! Can't wait for the next chapter! I hope you update soon! Good luck and congrats for writing such a great and entertaining story!

brilliant! i love the corporate scene. loved how ginny ended up being the model; i can only imagine what her posters looked like! *giggle*
I can't wait to get to the part when Draco realizes he's got the hots for Ginny, b'coz, its obvious he does, keeping the lifesize poster in his office? giveaway!
i hope you'll update soon..
you're doing a great job!

Author's Response: Ves says: Men are…complicated. If left to his own devices, the boyo might never figure anything out. Luckily, we are not the sorts of women to be content leaving him to his own devices. rn

rnMyn says: There's some kind of dirty joke to be made on the theme of said devices, but I'll refrain due to my modest and ladylike nature.rn

Please please please please please update! I have nothing useful or insightful to add, I just wanted to say I love your story & am begging for (not demanding, definitely not demanding) the next chapter!

Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Begging noted. Thank you for playing nicely.

I've just read this for a second time and I've just fallen in love with your writing! Keep it up, I can't wait for the next chapter!

Hello,

Thank you so much for the great read. I love the flow of the story and was quite sad to see there wasn't a "next" to click on. I hope that you continue with and finish this story. It's original and allows the readers to imagine our beloved characters in a more muggle like setting. Great job! :)

Author's Response: Ves says: It certainly isn’t the usual, “Let’s all go teach at Hogwarts” or “Let’s all gad about our massive mansions” fic and that’s made it exciting for both of us to work on.rn

rnMyn says: Yeah, I definitely think that taking it out of the usual settings is awesome, as it avoiding the cliche of having Draco be Ginny's boss. (Which I've done, too, so no one feel slighted by that, okay?) rn

Hi there!
I have been reading your story in one go, it is really fantastic! I love the flow of it, so very hip and funny. I am amazed by the dialouges, so very sarcastic and funny, you got me laughing quite some times. I adore the details, how you describe spells and the wizarding world around Ginny.
Okay, I don't know if you two have abandoned this story, but it would be a downright shame if you did. Finally I have come across a good story again, and it is WIP (must be a curse).... PLEASE continue with the good work!
All the best, Sub

Author's Response: Ves says: WIPs are dangerous critters indeed. We are still working on this – somedays more than others. But thrilled you are enjoying it and the little details. We did put those in on purpose.rn

rnMyn says: Not abandoned so much as temporarily suspended in the face of "Oh dear God, if I don't do well in my classes I won't get my precious cum laude! *Hermione complex caused spasms*"rn
