I loooove that we got so much more insight into Draco this chapter! And I adore how you've developed him - you can see he has a lot of flaws, but he's also come to terms with them. Also love how Ginny build those flaws up into positive things too (because she lurrrrves him).
Still laughing at Colin's comment regarding Draco's coworkers never being there - and Draco's response! I was thinking the same thing. ;)
I'm interested that Ginny hasn't shared the matter of the work trip with Draco as yet - surely there'll be a big to-do once he finds out about Junker's ploy? I'm quietly hoping Draco tags along for the trip, haha.
Great update, looking forward to continuing! :)

Author's Response: Much more Draco insight to come. :))) Re: Colin's comment about Draco's coworkers - Yeahhhhh, I may or may not have used that to patch over a plot hole. Well, maybe not a plot *hole* so much as a *Draco's coworkers don't serve my plot so I'm going to ignore that they exist* plot negligence. 0:) We'll just have to see what happens with the trip! :)))))

That was wonderful. I'm dying to see what happens. I loved every thing about this chapter. The tension is so great! I love how your writing comes to life.

Author's Response: Thank you so much!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. ;o; Thank you for reading and reviewing!!

like it!! can't read ginny's pov..

Author's Response: I'm so glad!! I'm hoping to have the next chapter out in the next couple of weeks! Thank you for reading and reviewing!

I just love this story. The characters are very real and nothing feels forced.

Author's Response: Oh, thank you!! I'm so glad you think so. n_n Thank you so much for reading and reviewing!

Please update... love the tattoo story... Genius!!!

Author's Response: Thank you so much!! I plan to update as soon as I am able to. :D Thank you for reading and reviewing!

Great chapter! I really like how you've developed Ginny, and I so appreciate that she's decided to keep her relationship between her and Draco.
Sad for the lack of Draco in this chapter but I'm definitely looking forward to more!

Author's Response: Thank yooouuuuu!

Whoops! Managed to write out a review for a completely different story!

Oh guys, you're having no luck!! All we want is some hot DG action and everyone is determined for it not to happen.

Really enjoying this story, I love how they're getting closer and only just coming round to the idea. I wish pansy would go away on a very long holiday though!! Can't wait for the next one, good luck xx

Author's Response: The universe (read: the author) is bound and determined to keep them from kissing! What's the deal!! I'm so glad you're enjoying it. Thank you for reading and reviewing!

I am really enjoying this story! The slow burn is excellent. Here's to hoping that the speedy updates continue - what a lovely Tuesday surprise!

Author's Response: I'm so glad you're enjoying it! Let's both keep our fingers crossed about that speedy update. ;) Thank you for reading and reviewing!

The tension between Ginny and Draco is fantastic. I almost thought they'd kiss after Draco's confession that he too was a seeker. I really like how his confession put a different contation on how Ginny could move on from the past and her regret of the tattoo.

Author's Response: Yes! That's what I loved so much about the tattoo. She originally got it for Harry, but it could just as easily represent Draco. Still a bit of a tragedy because she's not (or she *thinks* she's not ;) ) in a relationship with Draco, but the potential is all there. She just has to reach out and grab it. ;D Thank you for reading and reviewing! I'm so glad you enjoyed the chapter. That tension, man. That tension was the best part of writing this chapter for me.

I loved this chapter! Drunk!Pansy has to be my favourite, and I loved her interraction with Ginny. I like how tuned in Ginny is, yet she's so oblivious at the same time? You can really see that she has different values to Draco in that sense (though I'm sure it helps that this chapter was from his perspective, haha).
Great job with Draco's inner monologue!! But I'm disappointing he managed to cock block himself, because I was enjoying that scene. Though I do agree with him that it does feel totally skeezy in light of the situation with Junker, haha.
Ps. I couldn't guess which line is your favourite, because there were so many lines in this chapter that I loved. I'll take a stab in the dark and say it was something either Colin or Pansy said, based on the fact they are both hilarious.

Author's Response: I think I know what you mean about Ginny having different values than Draco, and that starts here in this chapter, but it's going to come up some more later, particularly where friendships are concerned. This is one of my favorite chapters because Colin and Pansy ARE HILARIOUS IMO, but my favorite line was actually said by Draco to Colin, the one where they're in the bathroom together and Draco says the thing about having war flashbacks. Kinda sad, but I get a kick out of it. Thank you so much for rereading and for all of the reviews so far!! ;o;

Okay, so I've decided chapters from Draco's POV are my favourite.
I am suuuper appreciative of how you've characterised Harry - I get so sick of Harry bashing for the sake of developing a plausible DG relationship, lately.
Also, the Weasleys were hilarious. I loved Molly and Arthur - clearly no-nonsense when it comes to their children, not to mention Victoire's pink hair and the comments about Draco and Ginny having kids one day, hahaha.
Great chapter!

Author's Response: Yes! I just think Harry in canon wouldn't be so antagonistic towards Draco, not like Ron. Canon shows that he sees gray morality as white, so knowing that Draco was reluctant to do what certain people wanted him to do during the war, I think he would be sympathetic towards Draco. And I wanted to show that Harry and Ginny really don't want to be together anymore, that they prefer being friends. Harry getting defensive over Ginny's new boyfriends has its place in certain stories, but it didn't fit in this story. (And I don't like it!!!) I think Ron is antagonistic enough for everyone. ;)

Another great chapter! Really enjoyed reading this from Draco's POV - he's such a snob, but it's weirdly endearing. He's just so oblivious about it, which is my favourite kind of Draco.
It was nice to see Draco's reasoning here as well, and I like that he's upfront about the chemistry between the two of them - it's a nice change from the guarded, closed off archetype and I'm so interested to see how you've expanded his characterisation.
Ginny was great as well, and it was excellent seeing her from Draco's perspective to reinforce the type of character she is.
I also really appreciate the way you manage to elaborate on backstory - you give us a lot of information to set up the history of your universe without dumping it all at once. You have a really organic way of writing where everything feels like it unfolds on it's own, like a real person's thought process, which is a refreshing way to read from a character's perspective. :) Great job!

Author's Response: What you said about how I incorporate backstory makes me so happy!! (Honestly all of your reviews do, but shhhh...) Sometimes I worry about info-dumping, but I'm glad you think I incorporate need-to-know information organically. :) The Draco chapters are by far my favorite chapters to write because they way I envision him is so much fun. He's cool and suave and a snob and stuck up, but underneath he's a giant NERD in that he's not cool at all. He's just gotten better at pretending he is. ;) Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! ;o;
