I love that Draco wants copies of Ginny's photos (life-sized). Why do I suspect his interest in them had nothing to do with the ad campaign? Poor Carissa, I believe Draco is one of those men that likes (formerly) hairy beasts.
I also love that Narcissa is intelligent, observant and really very cool beneath her scary bitch exterior.
Excellent story! I'm very much looking forward to more nudity, smirking, nude smirking and kick-ass business women.
Author's Response: Myn says: Is that any way to work that bit about nude smirking into the summary? Because our readership would double.
Ves says: Maybe we should work nude smirking in first. 'Tis brilliant though. Even Shakespeare never thought of nude smirking!
Myn says: Okay, so now our list of things to write into the story later stands at 1) a cliff, and 2) nude smirking. I love reading reviews, it's so inspiring!
Ves says: Why plot when these people all keep throwing story gold at us?

yay!! I haven't read this fic since the second chapter came out and I was so happy to see 4 new chapters!!
I can't wait for more, but I understand that you want to keep it's plot headed in the right direction, I'm just excited to see it being updated!
Keep up the awesome job!!
Author's Response: Myn says: Hee! Yeah, sometimes I save up fics so I can read it all at once and thus lessen the pain of waiting.
Ves says: Smart to do with this fic, I think! We are terrible about leaving cliffhangers at the end of chapters. Though not literally...so far.
Myn says: I wonder if we can write a cliff into chapter 11?
Ves says: Hmmm....

Eagerly (and humbly) awaiting your next updates! More Malfoy?
Author's Response:
Myn says: Yes, definitely. Of both of them.
Ves says: Or did she mean MORE Malfoy...because that could be coming too. *evil grin*

Oh yay! I'm always sitting on the edge of my seat after reading one of these chapters, but that just makes it all the more exciting to see Vesandmyn at the top of the most recent list :) I love it when you update (that was a subtle, yet cautious and courteous request)!
Author's Response:
Myn says: Yay! I don't think I've ever been exciting before.
Ves says: Oh please! You are exciting all the time! Glad to know new chapters are being awaited - it's nice that people are enjoying this one.

The poor intern! That part was hilarious (well, the whole chapter was, but that was my favorite). And I love Narcissa with her little herd of stilletoed (sp?) help. I can just picture them clicking their way around the office. Nice alliteration in the chapter title! I tried to think of an alliterative review, but alas, am not clever (or patient) enough. The best I can think of is "I chortled my way through this chapter." Sad, really.
Author's Response:
Ves says: The image of a flock of ladies on ridiculously high heels prancing around after their chief got stuck in my head. Glad to have passed it on!
Myn says: Total credit for our awesome chapter titles goes to Ves. Yay, Ves!
Ves says: Thank you, thank you. I think the trick is not taking the titles or the chapters themselves too seriously.

I really love the very faithful characterization of Narcissa as I feel like she really is who she is from the books while working in a AU fic. I also like the subtle hints of Draco wanting Ginny. It's nice to see a Draco and Ginny fic where it is not so blatant but yet makes you lust for more.
Excellent fic and certainly glad to see this.
Author's Response:
Myn says: It's a fine line between AU and OOC, and I'm glad to hear we're walking on the right side of it. :D And I'm all in favor of lusting.
Ves says: Certainly the right sort of aura for this fic. And we are having a grand time writing Narcissa. Glad our vision of her is working for you.

Author's Response: Myn says: You may want to watch out, as sitting right on the edge of your seat might cause traumatic falling incidents, particularly if it happens in front of other people.
Ves says: We aim to please. Also, Myn has a point.

this fic is uber amusing! =) Hehe... Ginny as a model... and whatEVER did that photo look like that made DracoDarling want a lifesize copy? *hehe* Can't wait for another update! *bounces in anticipation*
Author's Response:
Ves says: She must be really tired of bouncing by now. Of course, it's probably great excercise. I should try that. *bounces*
Myn says: *bounce* *bounce* *bounce* *wheeze* *gasp* Okay, no more bouncing. The update will be out soon, I swear, just don't make me bounce anymore!

LOL, I'm eagerly awaiting to see if you know what=mysterious photo of Ginny. I love this fic and it always makes my day to see a new chapter up. Though this sneaky photo business is driving me crazy! Keep up the great work and please have pity on us poor curious fans!
Author's Response:
Ves says: We are mistresses of Teh Ebil. I think patience is required to read this fic. The unanswered questions are going to get worse before they get better.

Another extremely humourous chapter. I like that Ginny is almost (but not quite) as intimidating to the other employees as Narcissa is--it will surely come in handy later. In addition, I appreciate Narcissa appreciating Draco appreciating the pictures of Ginny. (That was quite a mouthful, or would have been if I had said it out loud.) Unfortunately, I don't think Ginny will appreciate that, and especially not the photos. Alas for poor Ginny. But what is bad for Ginny (at least in the short term) is good for us, right?
Author's Response:
Ves says: Yep - yet another chapter of us enjoying poor Ginny's suffering. And yeah - I think the rest of Lush is a little wary of Ginny!
Myn says: Particularly after they saw what Josh looked like as he scurried around to fetch her coffee.

Mmm! I'm loving this story, and I can't wait to "see" how the pictures turn out. Ginny @ a photoshoot... Is there any fanart for this story? Great ideas, ladies! :)
Author's Response:
Myn says: Lyra Kristine was working on some, and I think I'd asked Starlette as well, but Lyra's got a lot going on and I don't even know if I sent Starlette the next chapter, so, yeah. In short, there isn't currently any fanart, but there will be.
Ves says: I was going to say, "Just you wait..." but you took care of that.
