Love your writing and characterizations here, this is a tough subject and you've accurately captured at least some of the mental anguish anyone in these scenarios goes through. Can't wait to see how it ends!

Author's Response: Thank you so much! The ending is so close to being done. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Hopefully more soon~

Your first end note is a beauty. I've been away for a very long time, found my way back here and reread TDC. The scream I let out when I saw you had recently updated! I am very happy that you are still committed to writing this fic which is definitely one of my favorite Drinny fics of all time. I may have developed an unreasonable attachment to this Draco, Ginny, Pansy, and Theo hah. I am very much looking forward to your next update and I will happily reread from the beginning again until next chapter.

Author's Response: Wow!! I of course recognize your username. Welcome back!! I'm so attached to these characters, too. It's going to be so hard (but also a relief, hahaha) to say goodbye to them when I finish up this story... which I hope will happen before the end of the year! We will see. Thank you so much for hanging in there and reading and rereading and letting me know what you think. n_n

It's so great to see this updated again!! That year long popsicle really did put a spanner in the works! I absolutely love your style of writing and I always think it's so recognisable, I don't know if it's the thought you put into your characters or the scenes you are able to describe so beautifully.

Colin & Dennis' reunion was so lovely and heartwarming. I welled up when Colin asked her to visit his parents with him. I'm so pleased Ginny told Lark to stuff it, and I'm excited to see where her ambitions take her! Looking forward to the next chapter! xx

Author's Response: Thank you for such a lovely compliment about my writing!! The Colin/Dennis scene definitely mirrors how it feels to almost be finished with this story. XD Thank you so much for reading and reviewing. More soon. n_n

I thought this story was abandoned, and SO happy that you're still working on it! Please finish! Love all of your work.

Author's Response: Not abandoned! Just very slow and uninspired. But I'm inspired again, so the final updates should not take as long as the last few! Thank you so much for reading! n_n

I recently rediscovered my profile here. And discovered this story. And oh GOD I need to know what happens next

Author's Response: Welcome back! I'm so glad you're enjoying the story! I'm taking a little hiatus while I work on a different story, but the next chapter is 2/3 complete, I think?? So it's almost finished! Thank you so much for reading!

I love how you have written such a tender and honorable Draco. He is a good person, thoigh flawed and prideful.

I love how you've written his complexity and vulnerability with his virginity. That he isn't some self-obsessed sex God. That he worries about the morality of mastubating to Ginny.

Brilliant. I cannot wait for this to be completed.

Author's Response: Thank you soooo much. I think writing this story, more than any of my others, I kinda of cemented what my headcanon of Draco is, and this is it. Awkward, maybe pathetic in some people's eyes. Inexperienced and maybe asexual in some ways, some part of the spectrum. And then, because this is a romantic story, I added some elements that I would seek in a partner, his tenderness, his honor. I always enjoy writing Draco, but this story has been quite an experience writing him and developing him and seeing who he is. I'm so glad you've enjoyed reading my take on him. Thank you so much for reading and letting me know your thoughts!

I have to say... I heartily enjoy the incorporation of a snitch tattoo in this. Maybe it isn't as original as you thought, but I LOVE the line Draco says.

Author's Response: Yes!! I just loved that idea so much. And Draco's one-liner. *swoon* I'm so glad you enjoyed the way I incorporated the tattoo into this story!!

This fic is amazing! Kudos for dealing so well with such a sensitive topic. You dedicated time to create a well-rounded story and it never feels like that such an important issue is being trivialised.
Thank you for sharing it with us!

Hi! I found The Dating Charade a few days ago because I looked at the featured stories and there it was!

I have been captivated since, and have been reading and losing sleep to read a bit more unil I finally read everything available.

I want to thank you for taking the time to write this! It’s a very good story, and you are quite a talented writer.

I’ll be eagerly waiting for the next update! I understand, life is busy. I appreciate your dedication to this story, seeing the author notes along the way. I hope all is well with you, and once again, thank you, truly, for sharing this experience of a story.

Author's Response: Thank you so so much for such sweet words! I'm so glad you found the story and are enjoying it. n_n I really hope to have a new chapter soon... I've got about 1/3 or half of the next chapter finished. :D Thank you for reading and taking the time to let me know what you think!

An update! I was so happy to sign in and see this new chapter. Ginny really works in a department full of despicable men, I want to cry for her. Anyway thank you for continuing and I'll look forward to the remaining chapters.

Author's Response: Thank YOU for continuing to read despite my lengthy spans between updates. *hearts*hearts*hearts* Ginny really does work with some awful people. :/ Maybe that will change in the future!

I hope not two more years!.... But I'd also be lying if I pretended I wouldn't still read it however many months from now. Thanks so much for the update. I loved the details about Hermione's office, and that scene was well done. This is such an important topic that feels very pertinent at the moment, so to see it play out in fic is really bold and original.

Author's Response: I definitely hope it won’t take me two more years to finish this story! There’s no reason I can’t finish it by the end of 2019, but we’ll see what happens. Thank you so much for hanging in there so far and being willing to wait even longer. I don’t know what I did to deserve such amazingly patient readers, but it’s because of everyone’s support that I’m also hanging on and not leaving this story unfinished. Thank you!

PLEASE tell me this guy and Scamander get their comeuppance. He makes my skin crawl off my bones. *Barf*

Author's Response: This was such an annoying chapter to write, but, ugh, it needed to be done. -_- Hopefully the ending will be satisfying enough as far as retribution against Junker and Scamander goes. *fingers crossed* Thank you for hanging in there with me and this story!
