This story is sensational. MAN. What a plot.

Reviewer: lilydarliing Signed
Date: May 21, 2007 Title: Chapter 8: Eight

So... wasn't Ginny going to carry on with the plan? Why the sudden drop of plot? (Not to sound rude; I'm merely curious.) Also, I was wondering why you had such a dramatic lapse of time between the time period of the last chapter and this one?

Author's Response: Sigh. I think I need to rethink the division between chapters seven and eight. When I wrote this story, it was just one long story....no chapter breaks...and I think it reads much better that way. Not very much time has elapsed, really, and I don\'t feel as though the plot is dropped, it\'s just neatly signed off. If I had continued, I might have ended up with a thousand-page beast detailing their marriage, the raising of their son, etc., and that wasn\'t the goal of the contest (nor was that within my time constraints). Yes, Ginny was going to carry on with the plan, but as you read, she becomes rather disillusioned with Harry at long last, and that sort of \"breaks the spell\"--she realizes her mistake. Sorry if it didn\'t read very well, however!

AHHHHHHHHHHHH.

I am obsessed with this story. I absolutely LOVE the characterization. This story is the kind of thing that I search high and low for, and I can't ever seem to find it! ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. I'm very, very impressed.

I really, really love the way they banter (okay, so it was in the beginning, oh well), and I really like the way they curse, too. Really splendid job.

Also, I like the development of their relationship. You give the reader what he/she wants without dragging it out/granting the reader's wish IMMEDIATELY.

Perfect perfect perfect. Probably one of my favorites, ever.

I liked it.
An interesting read.

Parts were a bit confusing/the language didn't flow as nicely, but it was a really interesting read. However, I feel the "cold" characterization of Ginny is a bit off. Nevertheless, I'm a fan of it. It's really very nice.

Absolutely the best 1st fic I've ever read. Without a doubt.

Author's Response: That\'s one flattering review. Are you familiar with the \'sandwich\' technique in editing (i.e. beginning with a compliment, throwing in a question, critique, or other statment that would put the reciever on the defensive, then ending with another compliment)? If not, I suppose you are now. It\'s common to use that format when editing so that people are receptive to your suggestions. It works too--I plan on keeping flow in mind next time I write.

Reviewer: lilydarliing Signed

I cannot wait to see where this goes... but I felt it was very rushed and hurried. I adored what led up to the sex, but their intimacy... wasn't intimate. It was very awkward to read and it didn't feel real. I suggest holding off on the sex; maybe Draco just sticks a hand up her shirt, and Ginny's ashamed she let it go that far.

I'm curious to see what you'll make out of this chapter. I eagerly anticipate the update!

Author's Response: It wasn\'t really supposed to be intimate or loving. It was supposed to portray a first time based on teenage lust. It always works great for the guy, but not the girl. Ginny\'s made a mistake in this fic. Hopefully it will work out well for her, but it won\'t happen right away.

Reviewer: lilydarliing Signed
Date: Oct 26, 2007 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2

Hmmm. I think the conversation needs a little work. It sounds a bit stiff and awkward, and I felt Draco revealed too much about himself.

Also, I really loved the scene in the Great Hall. Oh, man, I was just like, AHAHHAHAHAH THIS IS SO FABB. Seriously. Love.

On the other hand, though, Draco lost the fantastic characterization when he and Ginny started talking. I think it would be a little more fitting if he weren't so friendly and familiar with her. After all, he is a Malfoy, and he stands for everything she is against. Ginny's tears seemed sudden; I didn't feel her frustration mounting.

Another question: what was up with Hermione/Ron/Harry and the masking charm? I couldn't really follow what was going on.

Overall, really fab. *squees and fangirls* I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HOW IT TURNS OUT!

Author's Response: Ouch. I feel compelled to say that this is an AU fic, so there isn\'t quite the animosity there would be in other fics. Draco did help kill Voldemort. He\'s supposed to be snarky, but not truly evil. I\'m trying to portray him as a hormone ridden 18 year old boy who ocassionally says the right thing. \r\nIf Harry removed the masking charm then Ginny\'s love bites would have shown. Luckily, Ron was guilty of giving Hermione a love bite, and he urged Harry not to perform the spell. That is what saved Ginny from discovery.\r\n

Ahhhh! I absolutely love this fic! It's exactly what I was in the mood for! Light and breezy, with a cute little plot. I also love how smoothly you inserted Draco's adoration. Blaise is also quite a character. You've written their friendship exactly how I imagine it! Their interaction is great. You've NAILED their characters.

But, yeah, I love it. I also love the Malfoy family, as a whole. Nice job on characterizing them. They're easy to like, but you can see how they wouldn't be.

I love it! Great job! I eagerly anticipate the update!
