I'm impressed with this as a first story. Sure, there's some stuff that could be explained more, such as why/how Draco's in love with her, and how she falls in love back, besides that he loves her and he rescued her, but I tell you what, this is about 10,000 times better than my first fanfic was. It was sweet, it was internally consistent, it was free of technical errors, and just in general was designed to put a nice smile on my face. Thanks for posting it here, and I hope to see more from you soon. :)

Squee! I love the tension in the Harry/Neville/Luna group, and the way that Hermione's managing to hold on to control - tenuously, but cupid's arrow has an awful lot of logic to get through before she and Blaise end up together.

My goodness. I never in a million years would have expected to hear myself say this, but... TheNeville/Harrybitwasreallyreallyhot. *^^* The Blaise/Hermione also - his intensity was just crackling. I'm so happy you updated, and I can't wait to see what happens next! :D

Squee! One or two typos, and the bit about sixth year was unclear, but otherwise, perfection. I love, love, love devious Draco, and the idea that he's withholding sex to gain a wedding ring makes me giggle like mad. Thanks for posting, and I hope to see more soon. :D

Author's Response: Damn spellcheck and damn computer - I'm constantly plagued by one pop-ad that is driving me to distraction. How many more spyblaster and adware programs do I have to load! I'll go back and edit - I hate typos. And sixth year will be more revealed in the future. I had almost a page more and then realized it was distracting from the actual exchange between Blaise and Draco.

Wah! I typed a big long review and the browser ate it! The shorter version is that I adore your Narcissa, and I think your Hermione is spot on, and the bits with the Weasleys seemed just as IC. Plus, D/G got married and are going to live happily ever after! *bliss coma* I love this story.

Author's Response: I'm so relieved you thought my characters were in keeping with canon (or as much as we know). I admire your work immensely particularly your attention to canon detail.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I can't even say anything coherent, because I am so very, very much in love with this fic. Bravo. BRAVO.

Author's Response: I am so thrilled you liked it. Consider yourself my Muse for this - I don't think I would have daren't write it without your encouragement. I plan to leave it be for a bit, and then combine NJFA and Interludes into one cohesive story, fixing the errors, smoothing out some of the story line, and polishing. I'll post it again to the Archive then.

Eeeeeeehehehee, let the games begin! I find it interesting you're starting with Blaise being the one interested in Ginny - gives another obstacle to the path to true love for the ferret and weaselgirl, but I have faith. :D

Author's Response: I hereby give you permission to virtually smite me senseless should I ever deviate from the course of true love for the Great Ferret and the Girl Weasel. My happy endings do not include Blaise with Ginny, and I still have nightmares about fics that pair Draco with Hermione. I don't care how well-written they are, they're just wrong, and I feel vindicated by the fact that JKR has said so.

I love the almost dreamy way that you show Draco's obsession - I was going to quote specific lines, but I'd have to quote half the chapter. I also like the ambiguity of Snape's morality, and the almost vassal-like relationship he seems to have with Lucius and Narcissa.

Author's Response: I do see Snape as very ambiguous - he's been walking a fine line between both sides for years. And he is pureblood so he has that mentality. And I do see Snape as looking up to Luciusagainst his will; rich handsome and powerful - everything Snape isn't.

Reviewer: Mynuet Signed
Date: Jul 27, 2004 Title: None

I thought it was interesting to look at Ginny's obsession, and to anticipate the way that it's going to clash with Draco's. The relationships between the various members of the Phoenix Division were really well done, and the friendship between Ginny and Hermione.

Author's Response: Thank you. I do feel that there is a growing bond between Hermione and Ginny that is only referred to in the books and not given much other attention.

Did I write a note when I accepted this? I don't remember. I did think it was a good story, despite my not being the biggest fan of the theory that Draco gets beatings. I thought that you did a superb job with conveying the unwilling yet instant and total attraction, the strangeness and excitement of, er, self-discovery, and his longing and bitterness. Did you plan for this to be a one-shot, or perhaps the prequel to something longer? Either would work, although of course the second one would make me much happier. ;)

Come Away With Me by Fearthainn    (Reviews - 29)

Mynuet's Birthday Fic. Dark Directed-verse ficlet set not long after the ending of DD. I pitched this idea to Mynuet on her birthday, and she said she wanted me to write it out, so I did. Sadly I got hung up on the smut, so it's a very late birthday present. I hope it's all you hoped for, Shar! Happy Birthday!

Never Forgotten by Ladidah    (Reviews - 68)

A six-year old Ginny meets a seven-year old Draco in the Ministry of Magic while waiting for her father. An innocent friendship forms, and they remain playmates throughout their childhood—unbeknownst to their families. However, moving on to Hogwarts splits them, because they each have their own images and families to support—but they will never forget their childhood memories. Details what really happens behind the scenes between Draco and Ginny during the first five years at Hogwarts. Pairings: Draco/Ginny. NOTE: Temporarily abandoned until I find more inspiration. I did, however, halt my story at a good stopping point, which perhaps is why I'm so reluctant to begin again. Regardless, I hope you enjoy what is here, and I will write again when I have the time and motivation. ^^

A very good start. :) I like your use of Blaise here, and the way you manage to show Ginny as being alienated without going overboard into the "poor pitiful Ginny" cliche.

Author's Response: Aww, thanks. Actually, that's a pet peeve of mine - I hate fics where Ginny is pictured as pitiful. I mean, she was in the Dept. of Mysteries in OotP. So OBVIOUSLY she hasn't been ignored that much.

Author's Response: *pats* Thank you; I\'m often afraid I\'m barrelling into soap opera territory. Though, if that were the case, there\'d probably be a lot more slapping, flashbacks and convoluted scheming.
