COMPLETE!  Strolling through Diagon Alley Lucius Malfoy comes across a little boy who could have been Draco's twin.  Has his family tree been expanded, without his knowledge?  Has Draco been keeping secrets?  Or is he oblivious to the fact that he may have an heir?

I've enjoyed most of this story, but Draco is horrifying. He's a terrible parent as is Lucius. It's seems like Draco is bypolor judging by the number of times his mood has changed per chapter.

I'm going to continue reading in the hope that Draco redeems himself. Because right now, all I can hope is Ginny takes the kids and runs far, far away..

Author's Response: You have to remember that this is all very new to Draco and he has no idea what he's doing.

By no means do I wish to be disrespectful, I think you're a good writer. I'm just disappointed with Draco's characterization. How on earth could his threaten his own son with cruio? I think he's been a terrible father thus far.

Author's Response: I can promise he does get the gist of this parenting caper; he's just on a huge learning curve right now and he acts without thinking at times.

Aw, what an amazing fic. The ending was absolutely perfect. To be honest I shed quite a few tears whilst reading and very much doubted Ginny and Draco ending up together after their.. ordeal but you tied everything up with a perfect bow. This story was lovely and your writing is marvelous.

I've been having the worst day ever. The entire day I just wanted to curl up on my bed, and hide under the covers until I felt better. Instead, I decided to make some popcorn and read some fluffy D/G. I've already read this fic about a million a one times, but it cheers me up every time. This time was no exception. So thank you for accomplishing what TV, popcorn, and music could not achieve.:)

Wherever You Will Go by Serenitey    (Reviews - 150)

Draco Malfoy watched his wife twirling around the room with her brother, Bill, a dazzling smile plastered on her thin face. Her laughter rang out and he couldn’t help the smile that overtook his face. She was so beautiful. So beautiful and so unequivocally his. He could hear her breathing was still slightly ragged from her impromptu dance with Bill. He frowned. She was getting weaker.

I hope you know that I hate you. How could you write something so beautiful but tragic? How could you post this knowing that you would be breaking people's hearts?

Your writing is amazing. Bravo. Draco's pain lept off the screen and became my pain.

Crossing into Chaos by Emeral_eyes    (Reviews - 512)

*Completely AU* In a world where Voldemort was never defeated, only a few things matter: pureblood, money and power. All that Ginny Weasley wanted was to survive her 7 years at Hogwarts, a school where the children of the richest and most powerful wizards dominate over others. Denying her natural instincts, she managed to make it into her 6th year without offending any of the cruel and powerful Slytherins - especially that horrible Draco Malfoy. Until one day, she crosses a line, and her peaceful existence is shattered forever. A story filled with adolescent drama, clash of the classes, angst, jealousy, ridiculous pride and love triangles (and squares).

Oops, I meant read the chapter *again (not after.)
Your story is so wonderful it is making me loose my mind :P hehe update soon please!

Reviewer: hp42 Signed
Date: Mar 24, 2012 Title: Chapter 18: Pawns and Fairy tales

I reread the chapter and I'm stil a little confused. If Blaise only pretended to like Ginny to punish Draco because he hates him, why did he tell Draco about Ginny's patronus?

Author's Response: Excellent question! What you said is true - Blaise interfered with Ginny & Draco because he blames Draco for the fact that his poor little heart was trampled by Cho's designer Quidditch boots, knowing that Draco only convinced him to go after her so that he'd be out of the way, giving Draco the chance to move in on Ginny. But, does Blaise really hate Draco? Also, there's one more layer to Blaise's actions - still to be revealed. It sets up the next major conflict in the story.

OH MY GOODNESS, MY HEART WAS RACING THE ENTIRE TIME I READ THE SECOND HALF OF THE CHAPTER!
I cannot believe Blaise! I'm a little confused about his actions, but I'm going to read the chapter after I finish this review.
I LOVE that Draco and Ginny are so in love with each other. The fact that her patronus is a dragon.... Be still my fangirl heart! And the fight with Blaise, and Draco defending his love for Ginny... my emotions are out of control!
Please, please, please update soon! This forever remains my favourite story, and I desperately await each update!

Author's Response: Thanks so much! Ginny may not be able to come right out and tell Draco how she feels, but her actions (and her Patronuses!) certainly tell volumes about her feelings.

Date: Nov 24, 2012 Title: Chapter 20: Jumpers and dragons

THIS! This is exactly what I wanted! There were so many parts that I simply had to take a moment to stop reading and squeal because it was just too cute/perfect/amazing/romantic/lovely. I particularly loved "I feel it all for you" (basically that entire scene) and the gifts :)
I think I mention this every time I review, but Crossing Into Chaos is my absolute favourite fan fiction. I've had a crazy busy, stressful week, and seeing that this story was updated completely uplifted my spirits. Please update soon! You're awesome.

Author's Response: Thank you!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it - I knew I had to throw in a few sweet moments between the two, otherwise some readers might be out of my blood! I've got some time off in December, so I'm hoping to squeeze out another chapter early in the new year!

Reviewer: hp42 Signed
Date: Apr 03, 2010 Title: Chapter 16: Abductions and ultimatums

First of all, I'd just like to say I'm so sorry about the illnesses in your family. I'm so glad things have gotten better.

Second of all, Blaise needs to die! I think you should write me into the story so I can kill me. :P Ginny and Draco were making such great progress! I was grinning from ear to ear during their day together. And that makeout scene! Perfection! I can only hope that Draco realizes that Blaise kissed Ginny and not the other way around.

I love this story so much. It's by far my favourite on here. I'd be content to read only Crossing into Chaos for the rest of my fan-ficion-reading life.

I really liked this:
“That must be why fate interfered and brought the magnificence that is my presence into your life,” Malfoy’s obnoxiously confident voice declared from behind her.
Oh, Draco! Bring your magnificent self into my life. ;) I honestly think I'm in love with your portrayal of Draco.

Anyway, please, please, please, update soon! I'm (metaphorically) on the ground begging. I'm not lying when I say that I jumped up and squealed when I found out you updated!

Have I mentioned that I love you and your wrting? :P

Author's Response: Heeheehee, we could all use a little of Draco's magnificence in our lives, couldn't we? Oh Draco, the more he falls in love with Ginny, the more we see how much of a little kid he really is. Compared to Ginny and what she's been through in her life, he's a complete infant. Thanks for you kind words.

Reviewer: hp42 Signed
Date: Apr 23, 2012 Title: Chapter 19: Colloquium

I physically ache from how perfect this is.
The scene after Blaise's and Draco's fight with Ginny and Draco? Perfection. Utter perfection. Ginny really is the spokesperson for actions speak louder than words. Which is why I'm so proud of her for saying: “There is nothing in the world that could hurt me more than to see those I love either hurt or damaged. Or knowing that they’re reckless with their own safety,” she said softly. THIS! This is what I've been waiting for! I know it's not an outright deceleration of love, but it's pretty darn close. And not to mention, it's a major step for Ginny.
Other squee-worthy lines:
“Can’t you see that you and I are just opposite sides of the same coin?” he breathed.
YES! Yes they are! They're both unflinchingly loyal and reckless, and perfect, and oh gosh, what's another word for perfect?
“We’re a disastrous pair, Malfoy.”
“A beautiful disaster,” he insisted
WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO TO ME? All I can say is... My emotions!
“She gets into your soul,” Draco corrected.
Could you excuse me for a moment while I sob in the corner? Draco is just... I don't even know what to say. Their love is so pure and beautiful.

You're so talented. The amount of times I squeal, or gasp, or get misty-eyed while reading this story is insane. Like I said, so, so talented!

Please update soon! I'll just be here, re-reading the perfection that is "Crossing Into Chaos" in the meantime.
:)

Author's Response: Oh my goodness, thank you so much! I am totally giddy reading this review, because you are (so far) the only one that's commented on the fact that she has just told Draco that she counts him among the people she loves. That is HUGE for her. And, of course, there's the Patronus thing. You've nailed it - her actions speak louder than words, because she is definitely not ready for words. So, it's not an outright declaration, but it's about as close as we're going to get (for awhile...)

The other two lines you commented on - I'm so happy you liked them! I was really nervous about using them (both the 'opposite side of the same coin' thing and the "beautiful disaster' as they are both a little cliche and I've seen them used in other places... In fact, I Googled extensively to ensure they were, in fact, cliche and not just something I'd read in a novel once and remembered) but they just reflect so much what I think about these two.

What an amazing surprise to see that you've updated!
As always, your writing is heartbreaking, but captivating. This story has always been, and always will be my favourite fanfiction.
Now onto the chapter... I just wish I could shake Ginny! Draco is so sweet and open, and she just won't give him a break! She needs to redeem herself soon, because I'm starting to get really annoyed with her.
Great chapter, however. I'm eagerly awaiting the next instalment!

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you haven't given up on me! In Ginny's defense, Draco's actions haven't exactly been exemplary. He ignored her entirely and has only come forward once it's too late, making it seem like it's not really that he wants HER, but he doesn't want anyone else to have her instead. Ginny is a fairly confused young lady, at any rate. Be a little bit patient with her - there's a big hint about how she really feels coming up in the next chapter.

Redeeming the Dragon by thelovinspoonful    (Reviews - 349)

"Perhaps it really didn't matter what he was, perhaps it just mattered that he was." Unexpected events lead to unexpected relationships. Can one person be so important to the destruction of Voldemort? Nothing happens by chance, but sometimes, life might be simpler if it did.

Wonders of Spatulas by Lirie Halliwell    (Reviews - 30)

It started with a simple demand - "Stop glaring at me!" - and somehow escalated into long discussions regarding lost causes, the ugly sides of individualism and the uses of spatulas in causing possible mental damage. As the notes and the mutual detentions continues, the long-time rivals might just find more between the lines than the wonders of spatulas.

It stands for false concepts and institutions that we take for real. You can expect to be shaken up, to be blinded by a shocking revelation.
