A chapter in which both mothers make an appearance! Narcissa and Ginny as allies. Hmm... formidable stuff. I liked the way they came together in the end, with the thought of Narcissa's horrid Mother-in-law as a catalyst for it. I thought Ginny's character was much more similar to Narcissa than Molly. Draco is simply drowning in strong willed women, isn't he?
A wonderful chapter, Peki, as always! What a surprise to find this waiting when FIA reopened. Thank you for the fabulous update!
Author's Response: Lol, yeah, poor Draco. But I enjoy this too much to write it any other way. I love Narcissa and Ginny, and I really wanted them to have a positive moment together. And Ginny's family really had to get back into this as well, so there'll probably be more of them soonish. Thank you so much for reviewing, I love knowing what you thought! :)

Hallllooooooooooooooooo langggee nichts gehört von dir süsse. Deine anderen shortstory sind echt gute ablenkung, aber bin doch froh das es nun weiter geht mit der Geschichte. Ich habe mir schon gedacht das du entweder eine schreibblokade hast oder zu wenig zeit hast wegen deinem studium. But back to the story ... ein gutes kapitel, vorallem das narcissa einen schlechten tag hat und auch irgendwo einen zusammenbruch hat. Solche szenen liebe ich in deinen geschichten, weil du somit den figuren menschlichkeit einhauchst, vorallem figuren wie narcissa, denen man immer mit vorurteilen begegnet. Ich denke es wird zeit das ginny und narcissa endlich miteinander auskommen und der BALL ist die gelegenheit die beiden zusammen kommen zu lassen. Ich hätte eine idee dazu, du kannst sie dir ja mal durch den kopf gehen lassen. ... Die beiden gehen shoppen wegen dem ball, und ginny geht nur draco zuliebe mit, weil er sie darum gebeten hat. Cissa wird bei madame malkins von anderen society ladies beleidigt, und ginny sieht zum ersten mal wie narcissa sich fühlen muss so in der öffentlichkeit beleidigt zu werden, und setzt sich prompt für sie ein. WAS ich echt toll finden würe ist wenn die beiden sich mal aussprechen, vorallem wenn narcissa ginny in einem schwachen moment erzählt wie das leben mit lucius gewesen ist und wie leer sie sich jetzt ohne ihn fühlt, denn irgendwann muss ginny auch anfangen ihre zuküftigen schwiegereltern zu verstehen uns sie zu akzeptieren. Die tanzstunden bieten sich ja auch an. Und wollen wir nicht das unsere Ginny einen einmaligen auftritt hat und vorallem die schönte auf dem ball ist. gott ich hoffe du hast nicht das gefühl das ich dir mit dem was ich geschrieben habe, meine gedanke aufdrängen möchte.
Jedenfalls ist echt toll das es nun weitergeht. Liebe grüße Curly!!!
Author's Response: Hi! :) Danke danke, freu mich, dass es Dir immer noch gefällt! Ich hab grad ein neues Kapitel hochgeladen, und manches, was Du vorgeschlagen hast, klingt darin an - hast schon recht, Ginny und Narcissa müssen sich besser verstehen lernen, und obwohl ich nicht glaube, dass Narcissa sich je dazu hinreißen lassen würde, Ginny völlig ihr Herz auszuschütten, hat sie jetzt schon einige sanftere Momente *g* Der Ball folgt im nächsten Kapitel...wird zwar nicht so ganz einfach, das ganze, aber Ginny wird definitiv eine gute Figur machen ;-) Hach, ich hab ja noch so viel vor...! Hoffe, es wird Euch allen nicht langsam zu öde *g* Danke für Dein langes Review, ich freu mich!

I love how you've blended the lighter moments of their relationship with the darker undertones of what's to come with the trial of Lucius. It makes the whole picture fuller.
Lovely job, Peki ... I really must check for updates more regularly! :)
Author's Response: Thanks! That's what I'm trying to do, mixing the sweet with the bitter and harsh. I'm happy that it works for you :)

I have been missing all the chapters of this story for too long! (Woe is me for not frequenting DracoandGinny.com!) But now it feels like a real present, getting to read all these new - or new to me, at least - chapters at one go! Wow!
The make-up was so sweet, so emotional, so relieving! I'm so happy ... and I'm not going to write any more now, because I'm itching to click Next and go on to the subsequent chapter!
Author's Response: *g* It's all in my lj memories too, if you ever want to go back. Anyway, thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed their making up, and I hope you'll like the rest, too :)

ahhhh da hat das warten sich doch gleich wieder gelohnt. Tja mädel du hast mal wieder dich selbst übertroffen. Ehrlich gesagt weiß ich nicht wo ich anfangen soll denn mir gefällt alles LOL !
Jedoch finde ich Dracos Babysteps echt gut, ich musste so oft lachen weil ich mir das bildlich sehr gut vorstellen konnte. vorallem fand ich es auch gut das du ginnys eltern angesprochen hast und draco diesem thema neutral geblieben aus liebe zu ginny. Und der Schwur, einfach genial, auf sowas kann auch nur Draco kommen, was wiederrum sehr seine Person wiederspiegelt.
Das du dieses Kapitel und die Geschichte so weiter schreibst wie du es für richtig hälst finde ich gut vorallem nach dieser blöden und echt fiesen review aber dazu hatte ich dir ja einen comment in deinem livejounal hinterlassen. Dein Journal ist echt gut, vorallem habe ich festgelstellt das deinde freundin wohl Sailormoon fan ist. Das ist echt cool, den ich habe sailormoon geliebt, würde die geschichte die du ihr geschrieben hast gerne lesen. * schwelgt in erinnerung* hihihi
Ach und SCHADE das ich single bin und keinen Freund habe hihihi, das kapitel finde ich echt heiß, vorallem finde ich es gut das die beiden sagen was sie wollen und sich nicht schämen. Dein Freund kann sich glücklich schätzen wenn er eine freundin mit so einer ausgeprägten fantasie hat LOL!!!
bis bald
Curly
Author's Response: :) Danke! Freu mich immer von Dir zu hören, auch über den Kommentar re:diesem gewissen review. Das passiert halt manchmal, macht mir normalerweise nix aus, aber ich hatte einen schlechten Tag. Mein livejournal spiegelt so Dinge halt manchmal wider, da ist echt alles drin ;-) Übrigens hab ich die Sailor Moon story da auch geposted, kannst Du Dir ja angucken :)
Freu mich, dass Dir die Story noch immer gefällt! Ich hatte mit diesem Kapitel auch Spaß. Ich fand das mit dem Schwur wichtig, denn magische Hochzeiten sind bestimmt nicht so wie die bei den Muggles, und außerdem darf man nicht vergessen dass Draco *und* Ginny purebloods sind. Tradition ist wichtig, find ich :)
Ginnys Eltern tauchen in der näheren Zukunft natürlich auch mal wieder auf. Hach, ich hab so viel vor mit dieser Geschichte, ich wünschte ich könnte schneller schreiben. Aber jetzt gibts wieder öfter updates, da ich jetzt mit all den fic exchange stories fertig bin :) Bis bald also! Liebe Grüße!

I always enjoy reading different author's interpretations of what a wizard wedding would be like. Personally, the idea of an unbreakable vow as part of the ceremony just seems natural and I like the idea a lot. I'm glad that Ginny likes it too! There is nothing more beautiful than making a promise to love and cherish someone until the day you die, or in this case, so you don't die...
Author's Response: I think so, yes - there must be some kind of magical ritual at a wizarding wedding, and the Vow makes sense, imo. It's really risky, of course, so I'd imagine that there's also something less binding, but Draco is the type to go to extremes *g* Thanks for reviewing!

I love Draco's reactions to the Muggles, especially the neighbor who was eyeing him. Also, Ginny's thought process about the Vow was extremely natural--very well done! Thanks for the update!
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm happy you enjoyed it. Draco vs. the Muggles amused me, so I had to include it. Now and then fluff is nice :)

I am impressed with how you include all of the death eater lore in your stories. I have a hard time doing that because it makes the characters so unlikeable. You manage to show them as evil, but still human. That is impressive.
Author's Response: What I do is, I ask myself: why do I/all the Draco fangirls like him so much, even though he's done some horrible things in canon? And then I go from there. I try to find reasons and explanations that shed some light on actions we've only seen from Harry's pov, and if they're plausible, they humanise the 'evil' characters. Of course there are some things that are just nasty...but Ginny is learning to deal with those, too *g* She's a strong girl. Thank you for reviewing, I'm happy you're enjoying it.

This chapter made my heart ache. It did. Draco needs Ginny, and you drive that right into my heart like a bloody dagger! Ouch! The palpable tension and the believable dialogue and the incredible passion underlying the scene was masterfully done - as always. It is always such a pleasure and a delight to witness the relationship between your Draco and Ginny. There are unlike any other Draco and Ginny I have ever read, and I love them! Thank you for this wonderful update!
