I just took a day and read this whole thing from the beginning, and I have to say that I cannot wait for your next update. There are so many complex relationships in this story and it's really exciting to read. I also love your characterizations of D and G. It's so nice to see a unusual portrayal that is still accurate. Great job, and I will be awaiting the next update! :)

Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad you're reading! I appreciate your comments, particularly as the characterizations are something that I definitely try to focus on.

So dark and twisted, but so completely brilliant and intruiguing! I loved it!

Very interesting chapter. I'm glad we finally got some backgrounds on Ginny.

Their meeting was absolutely perfect. I loved it, and I love your characterization of Ginny. Draco and Sam's relationship is too cute. Great job!

"Mother, we do not scuffle; we have gentlemanly disagreements."

Best line! :)

This was such a cute story. There are so many ways to make dark, serious fics, and it is such a breath of fresh air to read something so light-hearted and cute. Thank you, I enjoyed that.

Author's Response: Thank you! I think we need a bit of light-hearted fun every now and then. ^_^

Such a cute story. I loved the sweet and happy ending :).

I just started reading this yesterday and I've already finished everything you've written! I can't wait for the next chapter.

Author's Response: Yay! A new reader and a new reviewer! Thank you so much. This was an awesome little Chrismtas gift! I try to post weekly, so the next chapter should be out by Friday. I look forward to hearing more from you. :)

I think Ron and Hermione are both going to come around. Is Harry's testimony going to be in the next chapter?? Please say yes. :)

Author's Response: Harry's testimony is in the last chapter. Pansy is in the next one which will be out soon. There will be some more Ron and Hermione and of course some more Draco and Ginny. Thanks so much for the review!

I don't think Gin truthfully could've forgiven her family so quickly. Even if she would have said the words, I just don't think it is possible. I think Harry is a jerk. He mouthed to her that he loved her while sitting next to her husband, and then when he finally told the truth, he left like a coward. The scene with Snape... to be perfectly honest, I felt like it was a bit out of place through the course of the chapter.

Anxiously awaiting epilogue!

Author's Response: It's always interesting to read how others interpret certain scenes. I wrote Harry mouthing he loved her to show that he loved her enough to let her go. Of course, at that point in reading the chapter you did not know for sure what he was going to do. He did leave like a coward, not something Harry would usually do, but he was feeling extremely guilty. And well, I love that last scene with Snape. I wanted to come back to the beginning a bit and it opened up a chance for me to explain some of Draco's 'softer' personality, some of his reasons for embracing a new way of living. But you are of course always welcome to your opinions, and I am very grateful that you have taken the time (many times) to share your thoughts with me. Thanks so much for the review. More on Ginny's forgiveness in the epilogue. :)

Ooooh! I'm so excited to see what happens next. I've been waiting for the Dark Mark to come into play. I hope you update soon!

This chapter was so sd, but I honestly can't blame Draco for being angry. It's just so heartbreaking because they both had their reasons to keep secrets. I can't wait for more!

That chapter was so heartbreaking. I am so glad you skipped the scene with Will being taken because I think I would have died. Update soon, please, so that we can all be happy again! I still think there will be a happily ever after. Hmmph.
