Student. Idler. Aspiring writer.

The wonderful world of Harry Potter has been my constant companion and comfort blanket for the last decade. As much as I love the series and the epilogue...I sail the good ship Draco/Ginny. I also love Draco/Ginny/Blaise, Blaise/Ginny and Blaise/Luna. Generally I have mad love for my fave snakes but I DO NOT like Hermione/Snape. I think its just gross. I love them both, just not together. Lets stick to the holy union of Fire and Ice.

The plot bunnies have attacked! Run for cover! Save yourselves!!!


Long Live D/G...because they're just better

A Game of the Heart by pinkblood    (Reviews - 71)

When Harry Potter leaves to go Horcrux-hunting with the Golden Trio, a scorned Ginny Weasley faces the prospect of a sixth year rife with loneliness. When an opportunity for revenge against the boy who broke her heart presents itself, she can't help but take it, even if it requires becoming involved with her sworn enemy. But games of love never turn out as they are intended, and Ginny may be putting her heart in more danger than ever before...

A Suitable Young Man by Blue Phoenix    (Reviews - 78)

After a year playing Quidditch for the Harpies, Ginny finds herself whisked off to Italy for a summer holiday by none other than dear Aunt Muriel. Although Ginny might welcome a holiday, Muriel is not the best of traveling companions. And when one Draco Malfoy comes rather literally tumbling into the scene, will this prove to be the nightmare holiday Ginny envisions, or something else entirely?

I'm liking this. Muriel is always a stitch, you can't beat a crotchety old woman. I hope to see more of Blaise Zabini now that you mention him. Is Ginny a hottie or just your average tom-boy? Awesome, can't wait for the next update.

Author's Response: Hehe ... yes. I love writing her, glad you like to read her mean comments :) Ginny is just an average girl - at least that's how she sees herself. Thank you!

A Question of Fairy Tales by Boogum    (Reviews - 14)

Add one fairy godmother, a randy prince, glass slippers, a conniving redhead, and a rather distressed Draco Malfoy. Mix it together and you've got one very twisted fairy tale.

Author's Response: I have to admit, there is something about Draco in a dress that tickles my funny bone. Poor guy. He suffers so much in fanfiction.

Perfect. I love stories with Draco and Ginevra Malfoy. I just love the romantic nuttiness that would be their marriage, and you capture that very well. Brilliant as always Ann.

Author's Response: Thanks! I've never done one where they are married, well besides Irrevocably Broken, but that isn't a happy one. So I did enjoy doing this.

I love OCD Draco. I think this is brilliant. I don't really see it as OOC because there is still so much about Canon!Draco that we don't actually know, that this bit could be what makes him 'Draco'. Very interesting.

I hope the updates come soon and that those two chapters are already completed. Looking forward to the other chapters.

Author's Response: You're in luck - they are already completed. I just need to add in the changes my beta made. The next one should be up by the ned of this week :)

Date: Oct 17, 2010 Title: Chapter 2: Studying, Coq au Vin and a Serious Conversation

Snape is like an Alpha wolf. Sniffing around, protecting his pack. It's nice, I like that characterisation of him. Draco is interesting. I love that he notices little things about Ginny like her bum when she walks away. Hopefully she makes it to his dormitory to return his book before he actually needs it. Lovely chapter. I look forward to the next update.

Author's Response: It's funny. I didn't really like this Snape. Maybe it's because I love Snape as a character, and I felt he was prejudiced and unnecessarily nasty to Ginny. But I kinda had to do it to him for the plot. Oh well, I'm making him nice (well, at least, happy...content) in my next story so maybe he will forgive me. Thanks for reviewing. :)

Reviewer: Nutmeg44 Signed
Date: Oct 18, 2010 Title: Chapter 2: Studying, Coq au Vin and a Serious Conversation

I love Snape as a character too. I just think him being nasty to Ginny right now is just his way of letting her know that he's looking out for Draco and that he's watching for any nefarious activity. Snape is just a bit rough around the edges I think. He's used to dealing with Death Eaters not little red-haired girls.

Author's Response: I like your way of looking at him a lot better. You have a better understanding of his character, and I wrote the thing - tehe :) Here's to our love of Snape :) Thanks

I like the overly-sweet ending but I'm sad that it's done. :(

I hope Draco schedules in some snogging time into his routines. And the measuring scene is one of the sweets, most romantic thing ever.

In Return by jessica k malfoy    (Reviews - 43)

Ginny works hard to pay off the debt she owes a family friend by working as a dancer in a cabaret.

“I was here on business.”

Her eyes had adjusted to the dim candle lighting, and she could see the edges of his lips curl into a faint smile. “What kind of business?”

“The business of finding out why Ginny Weasley was working in a cabaret.”

Wow! A new story, but Vineyard Summer isn't done yet. I hope you won't abandon VS in favour of this.

I love the premise - all that character death. I usually love stories with Draco and Blaise being friends, with this one there seems to be some tension. I'm anxious about how that will turn out but I'm loving this so far.

The line “I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable,” he said firmly. “I won't ask anymore questions like that of you. Will you stay and have a drink with me?” almost made me fall off my bed. So honest but charming is Draco.

So looking forward to the next update, Jess. This has the makings for an awesome story.

Author's Response: The next chapter of VS is with my betas, and I'm working on the following one right now. I have this one that is burning a hole in my head and another one, which I am trying not to focus on too much until VS is done.

I kind of threw that line in there at the last minute, but thank you! i'm glad it worked! i want draco to be truer to form than he sometimes is in fanfic!

Reviewer: Nutmeg44 Signed
Date: Oct 22, 2010 Title: Chapter 1: Benefactors

I think Draco will be truer to form in this. I love him in VS too. Very honest but still human and canon.

I wonder if the two Slyths will compete for her attentions. That would be interesting. I like that even though Ginny is working in a Cabaret and she is in no way a prude, she doesn't compromise her values either. I love that her list is short and she only kisses if she feels like it. It shows that she isn't cheap and can't be bought.

Author's Response: OOooo the you know what is about to hit the fan in VS! big time.

this story was pretty much inspired at the beginning of the year when i was taking a musicals class. It's a combination of inspiration from Moulin Rouge and All That Jazz, although the other piece I'm working on (that won't get posted until VS is done) is a combo of inspiration from All That Jazz and the movie i hated the most, The Dutchess. Want me to email it to you?

Reviewer: Nutmeg44 Signed

Oooo, yes please! You hated The Duchess? I don't think it was Keira Knightley's best work but it was ok.

Author's Response: That movie made me so upset! I swear it propelled me into the arms of the woman's lib movement. i HATED her "friend" even though i understood her reasons and I wanted to kill the husband the entire time. my daughter and i were completely horrified. okay, now I go email!

Reviewer: Nutmeg44 Signed

Jess, I adore this story. I wish you would update sooner. I had to reread the previous chapter to remember what was happening.

I love this chapter though. I love that Draco just chatted with her ad asked her questions and didn't try anything. I'm still not sure if he and Blaise are on the outs as you say. That Nini girl is trouble, I don't like her one bit. I hope somebody gets rid of Ginny's debt and doesn't just move it as she is worried about.

Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On by jessica k malfoy    (Reviews - 11)

Ginny blames her stubbornness for a choice that ends up costing everyone.

The nurse hurried away, and they sat quietly for a long time, holding hands as tears rolled down Ginny's face. Their relationship had been hanging by a thread already, and Ginny was certain that this was the beginning of the end.

This story makes me so happy. I loved Blaise's letter to Draco. I love that he was having a 'lie in' with his girl, that's so sweet. And I love that he somehow knew what happened. His support of Draco's pursuits is brotherly. This is an awesome story and I really look forward to more updates.

Author's Response: Thanks. I am trying to update soo. I love the idea of Blaise being the brother Draco never had. I think it will be good for him when he starts to get frustrated.

Promises by recension    (Reviews - 58)

In the back of her mind, Ginny had always sensed there would be wild adventures with her and Harry. The early days of their time together–fighting evil and playing sport–felt like lifetimes ago. The most adventuresome thing they had done together in recent memory was a spontaneous shagging in the garden. It was so domestic that it pained her how common they were. The greatest wizard of his generation, and his wife, getting their thrills from a shag in the garden. She had never thought this future would be hers.
