Well, this might be one of my favorite stories..ever. Honestly this story is heart-breaking and amazing at the same time. You didn't make their relationship simple..and you didn't just throw them into it..it came on gradualy. And Blaise, dear god he's my next favorite Slytherin Boy..and dear god, he actually wanted her..but gave her up? My god, this story is so amazing. Congratulations, and i cannot wait for more to come. oh and..
Don't listen to those 'How to Write' books..your writing is amazing.
Actually, the only part I find not cool is that Ginny is not going to Dumbledore right away. SHE knows what's wrong with what Draco's saying, and ought to know that DD has to know, in order to save lives. Hm. But I will have patience, and keep reading, and place trust in the author. :-)
Hermione is so wonderful!! Just thought I should reaffirm that, as I am so relieved by her supportive reaction.
As for the relationship...first off, what a gift, eh? What a lovely thing for Ginny to see. And Draco's whispers while Ginny is 'sleeping'...sigh. Sigh, sigh sigh.
Oh, poor Draco. That was quite cruel of Blaise...I couldn't help thinking of Harry's 'monster' in HBP. Did you write this before or after?
But what I'm worried about most from this chapter is how thoroughly Ginny is lying to the Trio. I mean, she really seems to be playing the role of a double spy, and even though she's not doing anything to harm them, it hurts to see that it's the Trio she's spying against. That's not going to end well, is it?
I adore this fic. I don't have any constructive criticism to add, I just like being led along by you as you tell this story, feeling alternately saddened or warmed. I'm glad it's so long!
hey i read it on ff.net but thats not workin so my friend showed me this and i just had to read it. up date here, there, soon please? thanks!
Omg! Omg! Omg! I abosolutly loved this chapter!!!!!! You have no idea how long i have been dying to read this!!!!! Thank god you found another site to upload it too!!!! Or, i might just have dyed ... just kidding! But, i sure was suffering!!!! lol Please, hurry up with chapter 38!!!!!!!! And, once again ... I LOVE THIS STORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was terrific. Great job! Hope to see chapter 38 out soon...~Aya
Mmm. That was fabulous. I just found this story yesterday and I had to read it all the way through, to the detriment of my physics homework. But it was worth it, most definitely. It's nice to see them back together, I'm not really one for angst and you managed to have it be a bit angsty without making me cringe! Keep up the fabulous work, I'm waiting for the next chapter with bated breath.
Wonderful! I'm glad you decided to post here, FF.net needs to get its act together. This chapter was so emotional! Through everything, I think my favorite part was when they first saw each other. It was great. I have all these miraculous images burned in my mind. You do a superb job of creating exactly what you want the reader to feel, yeah? I'm sorry for the near worshiping. It stops now. Anyways, keep up the great work. I don't know how I'm going to know when you update now, now that you're on DG instead of FF ! I'll just have to check...like everyday....ha!
awwwww!!!!! I've been following this over at ff.net but then I was over here and I was like wait a minute I know I didn't get an email notifying me that you had updated now I understand (stupid ff.net) but yay for D/G the ending definitely made up for the cliffhanger! Can't wait for the next update :D

i've been seriously waiting for your story in ff.net but luckily i found it here! your story is just amazing i have been reading this since october and i just love it. please update soon.
Great, just Great. I was waiting for that chapter at the fanfiction site for so long. I am glad you found a way to post it.
It's so good to see both of them back together. They just couldn't stay apart any longer. They are one item!
thanks a lot!
aaaaaaaaaaaaHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
oh my god, you just made my day... i woke up early today to look if there was an update, and there was one... you won't believe how happy that made me... and then it was nearly impossible to concentrate in school, since i hadn't had the time to read all of it before school... and now i'm home and done reading, and i still have a little tear in my eyes, since it was the most beautyful moment within this ff... keep on, and don't let me wait so long again;)
well this story certainly destroys my social life, i guess... i don't think i have ever dismissed my friends to go back home to read something...
Oh. My. God.
You will probably never know how good it felt for me to read this. I've been waiting so long for that chapter, and I don't think I've ever been so happy seeing an update of any other story that I was when I saw this.
This chapter is brilliant, maybe even the best from the whole story :) You totally swept me off my feet. OH, and you know what? I just realized that it's my birthday today, and you gave me a wonderful present, the best one so far! :D So thank you a lot for that ;)
Wow, it feels so good to know that they finally got together again...
I adore your characterization of Blaise. Knowing how gorgeous he must be (due to genes handed down from his rather fawned over mother), I would consider trading Luna places, even if I had to wear radish earrings.

yeah ::does a dance:: I loved it :) I'm in love with Draco too... can I spend the night?
A toast and a tip of the hat. Wonderful! No kissing until chapter thirteen. Now we actually have a chance at a realistic relationship between our two favorite characters. Thanks for actually giving enough back-story. That is extremely difficult to find.
It was worth the wait :o) I was checking both ff.net AND F&I for this one, and am very glad to have found it! can't wait for the, ahem, funeral.
As I've said b4...this story is amazing. I will keep on coming back for more.
Now as far as this chapter is concerned, I really enjoyed the intensity and realness of their situation. I think the way you portray the relationship, and both of their PoVs is spot on. I think that the love that they have is so new to them that they don't know how to handle it or understand it. I don't think anyone will ever be able to truly get it. But they can keep on trying...
I wonder what will happen next...
Wow this chapter was terrific. So intense, and well good. I'm glad, that they finally talked some things out.
*breathes deep* SQUEE! *happy sigh* Finally, finally they talk and see the light! Now to just deal with the pesky problems like familial and societal approval, the remaining six months or so of separation, how to explain Ginny not being in her own room, and, oh yes, the Dark Lord and his attempts to take over the world. ;)
SOOOOO glad to finally have another chapter- AND as an added bonus, they made up! YAY! Can't wait to see what happens if someone discovers them though! YIKES!
