OOOOOH, mysterious! I am really loving this story, its fantastic! But, I find it a little hard to believe that Neville coould make the team, and Ginny's real name is Ginevra, not Virginia. Sorry bout that, but fantastic writing.

WOW! I really like this so far... But Narcissa's last name is Black by the way, not McFain! Please do continue, it's so exciting!

Very cute...but still no reviews. What the heck is this?? Maybe you just posted this, or something. I don't get it. I lurrrvveed the jealous-angsty-Draco moment. That stuff just makes my life. He was right, though, about Ginny being so in love with Harry. She'll get over it, of course. She already is, isn't she? Um...I don't have anything more productive to say, but I absolutely adore your fic and am going to recommend it on the Draco-Ginny yahoo group if I don't find you to be wildly popular on another site. Because this fic ROX.
Author's Response: Thank you so much for all your kind words! I'm glad I've been able to write a story that is decent! I've always been worried about that!
You're right about me overdoing it on the sappiness, but when I was first writing it, I would post before really checking my dialogue. Real smart, huh? I have my fic posted also at Fictionalley and on FF.net. Though I might remove it from there...

Aaauughhh!! I LOVE this fic!! Where are all the reviews??? Maybe next chapter. In any case, the werewolf scene was really well-done and exciting and scary. I was so relieved when Draco turned out not to be a werewolf (not that I really thought he would be, but still, I completely sympathized with his tears). Though I am a bit dubious about Draco attacking the werewolf: I kind of feel like he would have just run, but of course I'm glad he didn't. And his growing feelings for Ginny...sigh. That's why I'm here, after all.

Whooaa!!! I guess here is where Ginny saves his life!!! I can't wait!! But first I have a really long review to give. Because.....whoa!!! Wow! What a chapter! You started with a climax, and it just kept on going. First the GREAT argument between Draco and Ginny--I love a good argument--then you went straight to the explosion, then two that beautiful, conflicted scene where they're staring into each others' eyes and forgetting to hold scowls on their faces. Lovely.
But back to that argument. This was even better than the one in the Potions closet because neither gets the better of the other. Both are hurt--and that's just the way it is in arguments, isn't it? Both have their wounds cut open, both got in some good shots. I loved it.
And just as great was Draco's horrible attempts to get Ginny out of his mind....I loved when he screamed at himself in the corridor.
It all seems so natural, the only way I could really ever see D/G happening in canon.
And another great moment was when he thinks he must be so focused on Ginny because he "subconsciously" recognized something in her that would further his ambitions. That was hysterical, and so very Slytherin, and so very very Draco.
The only complaint I have is that you tend to get too sappy at times...like all the hugs between Ginny and her friend, and Seamus being so distraught over what's-her-name and Ginny saying "she sends you her love." Blech.

I don't get why there is (by this chapter, anyway) only 1 review. My guess is that it's wildly popular on some other site where you've previously posted this. Because you're a good writer! In the first chapter, I began to roll my eyes when you started dissing Pansy, because everyone does it, and ever since reading Slytherincess' "Muggle Studies" I get annoyed whenever Pansy is yet again cast off as irritating. But then you went off into a whole background story for it, how Draco had initially expressed interest in her, and how of course at first her attention was flattering. It all seemed very realistic and in-character and you actually dug a little deeper into his feelings on it than most people do. So that right there grabbed my attention. As for this chapter, it was great seeing Draco and Ginny's interaction. Aside from how enjoyable it is to see Ginny get one over on Draco, you showed them both in really vulnerable moments that were totally believable. Can't wait to read more!!! So I will!
