Wonderful. :) Very well done! More Draco development please!

Author's Response: Thanks! The next chapters will see more of Draco, I promise! Thanks so much for the reviews :)

I loved this. :)

Author's Response: Yay for a new reviewer! :) I'm glad you liked!

I think you should know that i'm having a ball reading this! It's really quite entertaining!

Author's Response: Oh, good! I'm so glad you like it, and thanks for the review! :)

Just started reading this story and I'm already loving it! Such a unique twist compared to other fanfics I've read. I can't wait to see what's next!

Author's Response: Yay, I'm so excited I've got a new reviewer! I'm so glad you've enjoyed it so far. :)

I like the chapter and how well they seemed to be getting along with the wrong spouse. I can't wait to read more! :)

Author's Response: I'm so glad you're enjoying, and thanks for the review!

Oh, no! It's Yoko!

I must have missed this update. Silly me. I liked this chapter, though I'm sad the story is drawing to a close. Or at least I assume so. Still, I really enjoyed the Draco/Ginny scenes, and the Astoria/Harry scenes were also lovely. I actually didn't mind that you glossed over the lunch/Quidditch. Sometimes it is necessary.

One thing I did notice: His hands kneaded into her hair, and she rolled him onto his back, positioning himself on top of her -- I think you meant 'positioning herself on top of him'.

I saw on the DG forum that you're looking for a beta for this. I've been a bit wary about offering because I already beta for a few people and can get super busy at times. That said, if no one has got back to you about it I can probably beta the rest. Let me know.

Author's Response: Thanks again for the review! I'm glad you liked the scenes, and I'm especially happy that no one seems too bothered that I omitted those few scenes because my heart really wasn't in them. If I wrote them, I was afraid that they would drag, and honestly I don't think that full descriptions would have added anything else to the story. And, I did mean 'herself.' I fixed it, so thank you for pointing that out!

I am about halfway through here, so I would absolutely LOVE for you to beta the rest. I have one person who is helping me sort out plot concerns, but I really would like one more for spelling and grammar. Do you have an email address that I can contact you at? I haven't finished the next chapter yet, but when I do, I'll send it to you straight off. :)

I wanna try a leap of faith off this cliff. ;)
Great chapter, yet again. I'm surprised at how you're working Harry/Astoria though. Looking forward to that almost as much as the D/G content.

Author's Response: You told me once that my cliffs don't have rocks, so if you leap, you may still survive to read the rest of the story! And I'm glad you're interested in both plots; there's nothing worse than reading a story that you want to rip you hair out during half of! Thanks for being such a faithful reviewer! :)

scorpius is right. they need to tell them. this was such a bad/amusing idea. haha.

Author's Response: Thanks for the review!

Whoa, didn't see that one coming. Astoria had no qualms about sleeping with her pretend husband? I actually think the two women wouldn't mind a permanent husband swap.

When I read Astoria's section I can hear her voice. It just sounds like her, so again you've got her character nailed. The others, I feel could be a little more distinctive. Especially Draco. Tickling doesn't seem his style :p.

I really liked these scenes, and didn't mind you skipping the lunch/quidditch. As the writer, you pick which scenes you want to write about. It'd come out forced if you wrote about scenes other people wanted you to write about but you didn't have your heart into it.

Not sure Scorpius would refer to himself as a kid - even though we think of them as kids, kids rarely think/refer to themselves that way, especially if they're teenagers.

Curious to see what Ginny will do - if I were her I'd probably try to get Scorpius to see reason, (not wanting to break up the marriage, and maybe this would help bring the two together) maybe bring in Astoria. But I could see her telling Draco, though there's going to be some angry husbands.

Especially, especially because Astoria had sex with Harry. Let's just hope it doesn't have the Lancelot-Elaine ending.

Better than the last chapter for sure (the plot holes did make me unhappy).

Author's Response: Thanks again for the review! I'm glad you like Astoria's character, and I appreciate the comments about picking which scenes to write, because I really think that writing those would have come out forced, like you said. I don't want to comment on the other things you said, though, because I don't want to give anything away.

I have to say this wasn't my favorite chapter. I felt Scorpius figuring it out was way too fast - only a minute into it and he figured it out, while Draco who's been married to Astoria for years has not figured it out in days. I know you want kids to be sharp/etc, but you also mention people see what they want to see. I'd imagine Scorpius would want his mother to be affectionate, and supportive of Quidditch.

I also felt Ginny's slip of "boys" was contrived and unlikely. And if the House Elves knew there was an impostor, I'd imagine they'd be required to report it to Draco. Not pretend as if nothing was wrong.

I found the Astoria/Harry section very believable and if she's to be found out it would be through Quidditch. The Astoria centered section was the best part of the chapter, in character, though Charlie singling her out was a little strange. I could understand it better if he came to talk to her after dinner, or she was his favorite sibling, that sort of thing. Also, wouldn't she have known his g/f-now fiance's name by now? Which makes me think that would have given it away, and if I had been her, I wouldn't have asked for the name, just in case it would give me away.

I liked how Astoria was in character here - looking down at the house before experiencing it and really enjoying it.

Looking forward to the next chapter.

Author's Response: Thank you for your review :). I'm sorry that this wasn't your favorite chapter, but I will take the time to explain why I made the choices that I did.

First of all, one of the reasons why I think Scorpius is likely to notice, in addition to kids just generally being more observant about certain things, is because he hasn't been there since the beginning. Coming into something in the middle often gives a person different clues that something is wrong that someone else is likely to overlook. Also, if Astoria openly opposes Quidditch as he said, he'd have no choice but to believe that's what she means. I had Ginny say "boys" as an implication that both of her sons play Quidditch for Gryffindor. For the House Elves, I admit I didn't think that part all the way through, but perhaps it isn't something that they noticed until she requested something. Draco was already gone by then.

I did mean to imply that Charlie and Ginny were very close and that is why, when he noticed that she wasn't quite as excited, he wanted to talk to her. Asking her name wouldn't give her away because (and maybe I didn't make this clear) no one knew he had a girlfriend, which is why him getting married was a big shock.

I'm glad that you liked how Astoria felt about the Burrow. Even though Astoria is not the snob that many people portray her as in a lot of fanfiction, I still think she's got certain standards. Initially, I think she would find the Burrow to be "beneath" her, but then she would realize that sometimes the luxuries that she's always valued are less important than the way a family can make a person feel, especially in a family as close as the Weasleys.

I hope I cleared a few things up by explaining my reasons, and I actually am going to address a few of them in the next chapter to clear things up because I can see where you are coming from, particularly with the elves and Charlie not having a girlfriend.

Thanks again for the review; the next chapter will be posted soon. :)

Smart Scorpius!

Author's Response: Just like his dad! :) Thanks for the review!

Your story's epic, sweetheart. I absolutely love it!

I can't wait to see how it turns out. Leave it a surprise for me!

Author's Response: Yay, I'm so glad you like it :)
