Hey! I am a long-time admirer of your work! I must confess that I have been a bit of a voyeur (if that conveys the correct context of my crime) of your work as I have never left any reviews (ever) despite being a veteran of D/G reading. I must say, I am loving this fic so far...has  it been around long? I don't believe I've seen it before... but before I read on, I am a bit confused that we haven't seen a whole chunk of Draco and Ginny's interaction in the summer term of Draco's sixth year. The dialogue in this chapter indicates that Draco knew of Ginny and Harry's relationship- what happened in between?  I don't think Draco would have stood for it! Harry is is long-time nemesis- would he continue his er-, thing with Ginny in the face of Ginny's very public relationship with Harry? Being the bitch that I am, I was hoping for a bit of a heated argument...



Author's Response: I\'m sorry, I didn\'t realize it wasn\'t clear.  Ginny\'s relationship with Harry only started after the relationship with Draco was over.  He broke up with her for her own good, and shortly thereafter was when she got with Harry - hence the "hard, blazing look" when she literally throws herself at Harry. 
The breakup and Draco\'s reaction to H/G didn\'t get its own vignette because they didn\'t have their own songs.  Make sense?

Gale - Prelude to The Storm by Glass_Mermaid    (Reviews - 20)

It is on days such as this, when the sky seems so perfect it hurts, when her heart is left aching and bare to the thought of him, that the shackles on her soul are tightened and she can keep him at bay no longer.

I love this companion story!! It's echoes Draco's thoughts in the other prelude. When will the Storm be coming out?? I'll be waiting with my fingers crossed!!!
Can it contain a little more humor than "Before the Storm"? Don't get me wrong, I loved the fic, but I got kind of depressed reading it. lol. Just Harry being Harry and Ron being Ron... that kind of humor...

Shall Rise Again by Peki    (Reviews - 292)

Sequel to Break in the sun (till the sun breaks down). For a few blissful hours, the differences between them did not matter. But as Draco and Ginny struggle with their budding relationship, they must soon discover that many things separate them still - family, friends and society as well as their own explosive tempers. The future they want for themselves comes at a price, and reconciling what they each want out of life is a challenge that might just break them apart...

Wow. That outburst from Ginny was definitely a long way coming. And Narcissa had it coming for her too. Lol. I do hope they can work it out though.
I love your portrayal of Narcissa- a strong woman who can seem a lil unhinged at times. I only hope she doesn't go in the way of Bellatrix.

The World Inverted by rowan_greenleaf    (Reviews - 228)

Draco doesn't remember their past together, and now she's just a Weasley to him. Ginny will do anything -jump through all the hoops, pose as an interior decorator, tap dance -ANYTHING- to break the spell that erased his memory and make him love her again.

I adore this story...
For Ginny's sake, I hope Draco regains his memories... though not straight away... I'd hate to see this story end!

Author's Response:

Hey! ^_^

I have some bad news...

There's only one more chapter left. BUT, I promise it will be a good one! :D
