hahaha! written with humor!

Author's Response: Ves says: Well, we tried writing with spam but it was too messy. Same for jam, biscuits and cheese.
Myn says: Sugar was right out.

I so glad you updated this story. I really like the title of the story and the thing about the young boy. I can't wait until... I guess sometime next month for your next update.

Author's Response: Ves says: I would take that as a nudge, but I chose to see it as an acceptance of the harsh reality that, yes, we really do only update once a month. *grin* Glad you are enjoying it!
Myn says: Wait, we're committed to a monthly schedule now? *hyperventilates* I'm not sure I'm ready to be committed!

amazing job with this so far. I can't wait to read the rest.

Author's Response: Ves says: Neither can we! Of course, that means we have to write it first. Huh.
Myn says: Unless someone comes through with that time machine we requested.

I knew he went snooping around in her house. I must a pervert or something because for some odd reason when I read that he'd found the teddy bear and she perked all up, I thought it was a vibrating teddy bear or that she'd hid a vibrator in the bear. HAH! Weirdo, I tell ya. Oh, how old was John he's so cute trying to get modelified Ginny to be his date. I am surely looking forward to your next update, hopefully Carissa reappers.

Author's Response: Ves says: You might be getting your wish. Maybe, Possibly. *is such a tease* And girl, if YOU are a perv, you are in good company because I totally though that’s what he was going to find. Not that I thought of hiding it in the bear. That’s just downright devious…
Myn says: OMG, you people are sick. *hides the teddy bears*

Seeing this on the 'most recent' page just made my day! I love this! A lot of people wouldn't be able to pull of a plot/story like this but you guys are pros! Thank you for updating! I look forward to the next chapter!

Author's Response: Ves says: Pros? If only! So glad you are enjoying this and thank you for the very kind words!
Myn says: Awwww. *love*

Ahhh thanks for updating! I love this story. It has a lot of character and constantly makes me giggle aloud. Update soon!

Author's Response: Ves says: Giggling aloud is certainly what we were aiming for.
Myn says: Who knew we could aim?

this is really fabulous. im pretty much in love with your version of draco by the way. just be careful with ginny, i feel like you're making her too sensitive, and i think she would be less likely to jump the gun. thats just me though. good work all around. cant wait for the next update!

Author's Response: Ves says: Hmm…good to keep in mind. Still, the poor girl has been sleep deprived for almost the entire story. We will see how she does with a little more time to process everything that’s happened.
Myn says: I think gun-jumping will depend on the circumstance, but I appreciate the concrit. :)

I love this fic. It's so refreshing to have something where it isn't love at first sight, or only two chapters of sexual tension before they declare their undying love (which is good because those types are meant for break ups-look at Romeo and Juliet-they had like the worsst break ever). Love it, continue it, and I will keep sending you words of love.

Author's Response: Ves says: OMG! YOU GET IT!! *HUGS YOU* Ahem, sorry for the CAPS abuse there. 9 out of 10 reviewers are all “When do they hook up?’ and I am running out of ways to say “When they are damn well good and ready, that’s when” politely. Many thanks for the encouragement and comfort that at least one person cares about seeing the processes and not just the results of these two getting together.
Myn says: They gotta
earn that happy ending, by crikey.

Brilliant, same as usual! And the embezzelment is such a neat twist - as though I needed another reason to anticipate the next chapter :)

Author's Response: Ves says: We’ve said it before and we will say it again – us=evil.
Myn says: Did I say that? I thought I was still protesting innocence.

~I dont get Dracos line about no being Lush, because it is a Lush product, But overall, I really love this story.~

Author's Response: Quickie Response by Ves: Actually, the "inconsistency" is a reference to last chapter when Ginny uses the Sirens Thousand Ship Launching You! potion...but we decided to edit in anyway, as it does read a little jarring. You people have good eyes...but possibly bad memories (teasing).

Author's Response: Ves says: Fixed that and thanks for letting us know!
Myn says: My fault totally. Ves had it with a non-Lush product in this chapter, but I changed it.

Yay! New chapter! Happiness! Oh beautiful, just great, get out of her flat you adolescent horndogs!

Author's Response: Ves says: Poor Gin, being stalked by preteen perverts.
Myn says: Hey, it's only the one, and he was polite. Unless you count Draco, but he's well past the awkward teen stage by this point and is a fully grownup example of a horndog.

Oooh, I'm intrigued! Has Ginny got a promotion?

I loved seeing the D/G interaction in this chapter, especially since it almost, in one or two places, nearly verged on the pacific. Highly enjoyable.

Also loved Johnny John's cameo. Looking forward to more!

Author's Response: Ves says: I am sure Johnny John is less than pleased with us, but who cares what that pipsqueak thinks? Glad you are enjoying us! And yeah, they almost seemed not to loathe each other in this chapter. Hmm…
Myn says: Alas, I fear there may be no more Johnny John. You'll have to settle for more Draco and Ginny.

ah so short! this seriously brightened up an otherwise droll day.

Author's Response: Myn says: If we managed to lighten up a day that was already droll, we rock double hard. Woo!
Ves says: Ditto.

I love the image of Draco carefully placing Ginny's teddy bear on the couch. I do wonder, though, if he REALLY only found the bear while he was snooping, or if he just isn't mentioning the other goodies he found. ;D

I also love Draco's reaction to Ginny's declaration that she is just a glorified secretary.

What was Pansy doing at Draco's? *makes a face* He's not getting it on with that cow, is he?

Author's Response: Ves says: It seemed a nice touch for Mr. Malfoy, to be gentle with her beloved bear. And I wonder too…We may never know. And in other mysterious happenings, what WAS Pansy doing at Draco’s? That slag…
Myn says: Settle down, people, maybe she was just there to distribute pamphlets for the Sisters of the Perpetually Pugnosed. ... Hey, it could happen!

I was glad to see the update. The underage wizard asking her to the Yule Ball was funny. I'll be watching for more.

Author's Response: Ves says: We were rather amused with her little visitor. Thanks for the kind words!
Myn says: Hey, did you know FIA has story alerts now? Saves wear and tear on ye olde ocular watcher devices, donchaknow. ;)

"...that had the potential for Ginny to meet an international playboy who would fall madly in love with her and reform his wicked ways to settle down with her and raise a family." Molly has no idea just how right she is, does she? Won't she be in for a pleasant surprise? Or perhaps the shock of a lifetime.

I love that Draco found Ginny's teddy bear. Can I hope that he found some of her other possessions, but decided to save his knowledge for a more opportune time?

By the way, there is a slight inconsistency in this chapter. You mention that the face mask is a Lush product when Ginny puts it on, but then Draco says it isn't. On the other hand, maybe this was a deliberate attempt to show that Draco isn't entirely familiar with the line. If not, you might want to fix it.

Thanks for the new chapter! It definitely made a bad day much better.

Author's Response: Quickie Response by Ves: Actually, the "inconsistency" is a reference to last chapter when Ginny uses the Sirens Thousand Ship Launching You! potion...but we decided to edit in anyway, as it does read a little jarring. You people have good eyes...but possibly bad memories (teasing).

Author's Response: Ves says: You can hope…and even suggest, as you just did. Still, I think he might have limited his snooping. He’s not really that much of a jerk. I think…
Myn says: Ginny grew up with six brothers, who still visit her semi-regularly. All the good stuff is so well hidden that Sherlock Holmes couldn't find it if given a month to figure out the problem. Of course, a small child could find it instantly if the setting was sufficiently embarrassing, because no magic is strong enough to overcome the law of Mr. Murphy.

I so love this story, it never fails to make me laugh. I really wish you would up date more, but I know you are busy. Thanks for the update.

Author's Response: Ves says: Glad you are enjoying it. And thank you for bearing with us and our pesky life-having. ;)
Myn says: *sniffle* Someone who doesn't want to beat me up for working on other stuff. I may cry.
