Date: May 28, 2008 Title: Chapter 10: The Boys are Back in Town

It just gets more and more interesting as the story goes on. And Ginny calling Draco "muffin bottom" was HILARIOUS!! Though it would be really nice if they would just take Blaise's advice and just accept defeat. Though Draco does have quite a bit to apologise for before that happens. Really someone should just lock them in a room together with no food and let them sort it out. I'll be waiting for the next chapter!! I hope it doesn't cause you too much of a headache.

Author's Response: My chapters have been getting infinitely easier to write! I admit, that may be part of my next chapter, just letting them have it out. However, all this arguing is kind of fun, no? Thanks for the review! I appreciate it!

Argh, why does Harry have to be so dense?! I know it goes along with being gryffindor and stubborn... but sometimes I just want to bash him over the head and yell at him that not everything goes the way he thinks it should, not everything follows Harry Potters rules and that sometimes he's not omniscient , no matter what he may think.

I love your Ron by the way, you captured his tendency to tell Harry that maybe he's overreacting. I love how Ron can be really observant about some things, but completely oblivious to others.

Author's Response: People see the characters differently, but I like writing Ron as if he\'s not as stupid as he seems. And because he\'s a Gryffindor, it somehow makes sense that he\'s loyal to his sister throughout it all. Harry can be pig-headed though, and needs a good thumping. Thanks for the review!

The best part was when Ron said "girlfriend's a bookworm, comes with the territory." I loved that line. Classic. Good luck writing the next chapter!

Author's Response: I was kind of channelling Spike from BtVS with that line. I\'m glad you liked it, though. Thanks for the review!

hmmmm. Can't wait for the next chapter!! It looks like it will be an exciting one.

Author's Response: Hopefully, you\'re right. I\'m glad you liked the chapter. Keep reading and reviewing!

Well that's rather ominous.

Author's Response: Yeah, sorry about that. But the warnings did say \"Character Death\" so I did give everyone fair warning! Thanks for the review!

Unexpected little twist... nice though.

Author's Response: Thanks! I appreciate the review!

Where Ginny gets a part-time job, Ron imitates Hagrid in an obscure fashion, and Draco's foot is permanently placed in his mouth. One-shot.

hahahahahaha, that was beyond hilarious! I loved how he kept accidentally saying things out loud.

Author's Response: Thanks! I feel like I\'m on crack more often than not, but I\'ve never been really good at writing funny stuff. I thought I went OTT with this one, but glad to hear you liked it.

Torn Between Ice and Emeralds by CrystalM    (Reviews - 93)

COMPLETED! -- A broken-hearted Ginny Weasley lets go of Harry Potter to let him fight the good fight and starts her sixth year at Hogwarts. Draco Malfoy follows Snape back to Death Eater headquarters after Dumbledore's death to even more danger than he had just left, realising too late that he has made his greatest mistake yet. Is anyone likely to forgive him? Finding himself a refugee within the walls he had conspired against, he witnesses a scene that alters his perception of a concept he had previously found to be a waste of time: Love. This change allows him to grow away from the model Death Eater his father had been sculpting him into in an effort to find out what he really believes in with the help of his new friendship found in the youngest Weasley. Meanwhile, Ginny struggles with her harboured feelings for the man destined to save the Wizarding world, unknowingly losing her affections with every passing day to his childhood enemy.

Date: Jul 09, 2008 Title: Chapter 13: Who's the Fairest One Of All?

Much as I'm already aware that there are going to be more chapters... I think that this would have been a perfect ending. No Voldemort wouldn't be dead and Draco's revenge wouldn't be exacted (continuing with the hole dead voldie thing), but I really love the last scene. It's just so perfect. I loved how the reflection in the mirror was the same as what was actually happening. You had me worried there for a smidge with Harry showing up in the mirror, but Ginny and I were relived when he left :)

Author's Response: Ahh, yea, this would have been a very cutsie, happy ending for the two of them. I need some more conflict though, they have to earn that happiness together! And having Harry in the mirror hopefully threw people off a bit, but I wanted her to realize that what she needed was to say good-bye to him before she could really let Draco in. And then she did... yay! Thank you so much for your review, I love to hear your opinion!

Oh that Seraphina... horrid girl. Though I'm sure she'll get her comeuppance. I'll be interested to see how this changes the D/G relationship. That and I'm a little surprised (well, not really, but I think it would have been funny) Draco didn't find some way for Ginny to take her anger out on the china he dislikes so much. That would have been entertaining.

Author's Response: Hee, Narcissa would have his hide. Thank you for reviewing!

Reviewer: Kalira Signed
Date: Jul 19, 2008 Title: Chapter 9: Deluge

I think this is my most favorite chapter. I loved it from the minute he made the comment about the crocuses blooming right until the end (especially the bit with the flurry of owls... hilarious!). You wrote the characters exactly the way I love them and it was great. I really liked the bit at the cafe when you just had the stream of dialogue and didn't put in the "said draco" and such bits. I thought it emphasized the quickness of the banter really well. GREAT CHAPTER!!!! :)

Author's Response: Thanks very much!

Reviewer: Kalira Signed
Date: Jul 19, 2008 Title: Chapter 11: Things Fall Apart

geez, nearly made me cry. I know she's conflicted, but I really hope she figures it out quick. I hate it when they aren't getting along. That and she's being a bit retarded... even if I do understand why.

Author's Response: Thank you, I appreciate your taking the time to comment. I do hope you can refrain from using the word \"retarded\" in a pejorative manner in the future, though, as it is quite offensive.

Fabulous ending! I can't wait for the epilogue. I'm glad she finally got up the nerve to go in and tell him. Too much waffling/angsting is annoying.

Author's Response: Thank you.

Amazing! I really loved the bit with Narcissa pestering Draco. I'm really glad Alexandria Malfoy suggested it; it was such a good scene.

Author's Response: Thanks! I\'m glad she suggested it too! She is fantastic.

Hilarious. I liked how Ginny seemed to confound Draco at every turn. And it was interesting to see his reactions to everything, they seemed very real. You wrote him very well.

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you thought it was realistic. I love a jealous, pouty Draco. I'm glad you do too!

Say My Name by akiko_dono    (Reviews - 58)

It was more than a fleeting thought. Fleeting could be pushed aside. Fleeting could be ignored. This slow burn, this ache...it had the promise of addiction, the means to swallow them both whole. Started as smut, but developed quite the plot.
