Excellent chapter! ^_^
I'm happy to see that you've kept your promise and have continued writing this fic. It's absolutely true that there is a P&P element in D/G, so this pairing is perfectly suited for this kind of adaptation. I like what you've done with it!
As for the BBC'S P&P being a better production than the 2005 one- agreed...but I rather like the new Mr.Darcy more, as much as I love Colin Firth. ^_^
Author's Response: He's definitely handsome, that second Darcy, but no one can replace Colin Firth as Darcy in my books. True, he's not as handsome as Darcy is meant to be, but he plays Darcy so beautifully that he BECOMES the ideal Darcy.

Hmm...does this mean you plan on finishing this fic? I'm keeping my fingers crossed...;p
Author's Response: lol Rowan. Yes, I am hoping to finish it! Some revamping was necessary because I haven't worked on it since HBP came out, which made a couple changes necessary... Thanks for the review!

Long live Long-haired!Draco....huzza!! I will now sing: yes, brace yourself.
Dedicated to you, my dear GoldenFawkes:
Gimme a head with hair!
Long beautiful hair!
shining gleaming streaming
flaxen waxen!
My hair as Jesus wore it!
Hallellujah, I adore!
Hair, hair, hair, hair,hair!
Flow it! Show it!
Long as God can grow it,
my HAAAAIIIIRRRR!!!!
;P
Author's Response: You totally crack me up, Rowan. I'll submit to semi-long-but-mostly-short hair, but long? NEVER!
Date: Feb 15, 2009 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6
I loved it! This was my favorite chapter so far. ^_^
You've done an amazing job with this, to the point where it feels like it's really Draco, but I can still see Darcy in there. I LOVED how you worked the dialogue into the thing!
Truly wonderful! You've done a fanstastic job with Draco's characterization. He's warming up to our Ginny in a realistic Darcy-ish kind of way. Excellent. Please update soon!
Author's Response: Thank you! That means a lot, coming from you. And the update is probably gonna be here by the time you get this message...

You know, the "blanket" skin is my personal favorite... Can I request a fic inspired by it? :D
I'm glad to see you're so prolific! I wasn't expecting to see D/G fics from you up so soon! Nicely done. ^_^

Oh, I tend to write a lot for a while, then stop... Then start again... Rinse and repeat.
As for blanket fic... sure! :)
Looking Out For Me by lookwhatidid (Reviews - 17)
Ginny Weasley and Draco Malfoy are two individuals that do much better just like that: individually. When looking out for themselves involves keeping the other away, it begins to dawn on them that maybe they've got it all wrong. What happens when their hearts decide that perhaps two is always better than one?Category: Works in Progress

I like it very much! It's a very good start!
I like Ginny very much. I could totally relate to her as a harrased traveler, and I love way she's shaping out to be. Independent,witty, ironic. I like it.
I'm intrigued as to why she'd sever all ties with her family, and I hope you'll explore that in the future. Draco sounds like a tough cookie! I can't wait to see what will happen once D and G collide! Update soon!
Author's Response:
I'm happy to hear that you could relate to her travelling horrors, seeing as most of this chapter involved her going from place to place! And I definitely plan to review her background (and Draco's) in greater detail; the loose ends will disappear soon enough! A new chapter should be up soon and I hope you enjoy it just as much! Thanks for your review!
Date: Dec 03, 2008 Title: Chapter 2: Disbelief
Hey! Great chapter! ^_^
I'm glad that the D/G aspect of things came into play here. I enjoyed their interactions very well, and I found myself rooting for Ginny to be able to hold her own against Draco. He sounds like a total prat, which is good, lol. The bigger they are the harder they fall! >:D
I love the thought of Draco giving "icy cackles" lol. I like that he checked out her butt and I like that Ginny called his logo tacky. Hahahaha.
My only nitpick is this: if Ginny has been posing as a Muggle and the company she works for is Muggle as well (and the same is true of Draco's), how is it that their product is potions? Why would a Muggle company market potions to Muggles? Know what I mean? I was kind of confused by that.
But anyway, other than that, just lovely. I'm glad that you're updating frequently! Can't wait for the next chatper! ^_^
Author's Response: Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed the squabbles between the two! And aghhh, you caught my only "nitpick" spot on. I was worried about using that word! But I was debating over other synonyms that would convey the mixtures I was trying to use, and that ended up being the word. Hopefully the future chapters will clear up the context of it a bit more! Thanks for the awesome feedback! =]

Sorry it took me so long to get around to reading it, but I'm glad I was finally able to. This was wonderful, classic D/G fluff. I confess it wasn't what I was expecting- it was tons better! THANK YOU! ^_^
Author's Response: THANKS! :) I've been waiting for your review... Since I sorta wrote it for you, I was eager to know what you thought - and I was very pleased to find out! I'm really glad you love it, even if it wasn't what you expected - better's always awesome! So yay, your review has made me VERY happy. :D

Aw, that was adorable. I had this sense of foreboding the whole time, thinking that it would end terribly, but you surpassed my expectations! The fic is aptly named! I enjoyed reading the ups and downs, and I commend you for making their dialogue childish in the first part of the fic, and more mature as the fic progressed and time went by. Also it was nice to see this follow canon almost to the end. Very nice job!
Not This Time by antidote (Reviews - 53)
A knock sounded at her door, and Ginny smiled slightly. Five years of absolute closeness, yet Draco refused to be ‘vulgar.’ Knocking on the door, he said, was more honorable than simply bursting into her home or appearing in her fireplace. Giving her the privacy she needed, he said, was more upstanding than forcing his company on her when unwanted.Category: Works in Progress

I'm enjoying it very much so far. I like the easy D/G interaction you have going here. Very nice! You're a good writer.
I'm intrigued by this beat-up!Ginny bit at the end. Was it Jared? Hmm...

Draco's Announcement by tisha yoon (Reviews - 17)
“Ginny gets a package from your owl, looks at you when she opened it, and when she walks out, you laugh,” Blaise said, turning his dark head to look at him. “Now tell me, what have you done to her?” Draco rolled his eyes at him. “Why does it always have to be me?"Category: Completed Short Stories

You're a very talented writer!

It had started with those eyes. Whenever Ginny looked back on the past few months, she always came to this same conclusion. How something so innocent had ended up so horribly wrong she couldn’t say, but she knew, she just knew, that it had started with those damned soulful eyes.Category: Works in Progress

LOL, that was pretty good. You have a penchant for writing snarky and catty D/G banter. *smiles self-indulgently at private joke*
Seriously though, I noticed in this story and the other one that you're really great at writing D/G dialogue. Definitely something that can make or break a story. Great job.
My only criticism is that you could have foreshadowed the nature of Ginny and Draco's relationship a bit because it was sort of abrupt to find out through Harry during their dialogue at the end.
I'm sure you intended for it to be that way, and it was a nice twist, but it was underplayed. I think it would have been nice to include some hinting at the beginning, nothing big, maybe just the flutter of butterflies in her stomach at seeing him, or her noticing how hot he is, etc, so that it doesn't come as such a shock at the end to realize they're together. Cause right now it's just like "Huh?" as opposed to "OMMYGOSH!"
Know what I mean?
...
Meh. Ignore me.
Great writing! Add more soon. :D
Author's Response: I apologize for the lack of forshadowing ... I admit, one of my downfalls as a writer is that I tend to forget the fact that my readers don't have the insight I have into my stories - I leave them floundering sometimes! :P That said, there shall be lots about their relationship in future chapters - enjoy! :)

Scubarang, I remember you mentioning you'd posted at FIA, but I totally forgot to come by and check it out.
Like I told you, I loved this fic. I think it's some of your best writing! I love the themes of reincarnation and self-discovery that run through it in a very subtle but very palpable way. Definitely some profound things are going on in here, but you did a great job of not making it seem heavy.
And of course, the smut is lovely! Great job! And thanks! ^_^
Author's Response: Hey, is this a pity review? No? Okay, thanks then. Although this was written for someone else it was posted only for you, love. I gave it as a birthday gift then forced her to beta it and nagged her until it was done because I was so eager to post it for you. So I'm glad I was able to momentarily satisfy you. ^_<
Getting Ginny Weasley by tisha yoon (Reviews - 20)
Draco and Ginny: best of friends forever. At least in Ginny's part. Draco has been in love with her and certainly does not want to remain just a best friend forever. When Ginny kisses Draco on the lips, which she claims an accident, her perception of her childhood friend would forever be changed.Category: Works in Progress

Hey starlit!
I owed you a review for this back on the other site, so I figured I might as well review here. ^_^
I'll admit this is not my kind of Ginny AT ALL, but I found that I could enjoy reading this anyway.
You did a great job of keeping it lighthearted and cute! Kudos to Ginny for managing to lasso Draco in! :D
Very sweet fic.
Author's Response: Hi! I'm so glad you reviewed this! =) I can understand why you mightn't like the Ginny – I guess she's not like most Ginnys, lol. I don't know how she turned out like that! But she did...! I'm glad you could still enjoy it ,though. Thanks!

I am happy to see your story on here, fairest Lizz. At the risk of repeating myself I'll tell you that despite my penchant for fluffy-happy-glittery-sparkly!D/G, I quite enjoyed reading this dark and lovely story you've written, and can't wait to see where you go next with it. Your imagery is precise and richly detailed, and I admire the way your writing carries such emotion with it. It really is very sad, but also very beautiful.
I do hope you become inspired to write more D/G (of the sparkly kind or otherwise) as I think you are brilliant at it.

Author's Response: Rowan! Yay! =D You always know how to make me grin. Now, at the risk of ME, repeating myself, I'll say thank you very, very much, that it means a lot that you're enjoying this, and that I will find some time to write more DG. Thank you! b29;

Author's Response: Thank you, Rowan! I'm really flattered that it was one of your favourite fics during the exchange, coming from a prolific D/G writer like you - I hope you'll continue to enjoy it as much as more stuff gets added later on! :)
