Loved the convo when I read it the first time; loved it again here. Their dialogue is fantastic; especially Draco's last line. Poor little rich boy!

Aw! She still likes him... :-)

Author's Response: Yep, it sure sounds like it, doesn't it? Lucky, unlucky Draco. -fallenwitch

Great Story, update soon!

now I am utterly and wholly absorbed again.... YAY that your muse returned... I was beginning to be worried girl! Can't wait for now reappeared muse to strike again! YAY to Marcia for kicking your butt... I'll help next time too! ;)

Author's Response: Thanks, Jess. Yeah, I was a little worried too, but the muse has taken up residence again. As for helping Marcia - let me tell you, that woman needs no help - none - zippo. She kicks butt just fine - all by her lonesome - and I've got the black and blue marks to prove it! - fallenwitch

Yippieee - ur back!

Author's Response: Yep, I'm back! Thanks for your review. I loved it! -fallenwitch

Author's Response: *smiles* -fallenwitch

I LOVE this story. Its so compelling but I am really really REALLY struggling to understand what the hell is happening in this chapter! ARGH Write more wench! LOL

Author's Response: Hullo Myanceris! I know. I know! I think the next chapter will help. Good to hear you are still loving this fic! Thanks for stopping by. -fallenwitch

i love this story and it keeps on getting better and better :)

Author's Response: Thank you! -fallenwitch

YAYAYAYAYAYA!!! you updated, and I must say it's wonderful as usual. I love how you portrayed draco, and he's so worried. I love that he's in love with her, and while he's angry at her he still would go through anything to save her. Great chapter, can't wait for next update

Author's Response: What a lovely, succinct summary of the story so far. Thanks, espressivo! Loved it. - fallenwitch

wonderful. you finally updated and i loved every word of it. what a way to reunite. and i love the description of draco vs. christo. fantastic. thanks. looking forward to much much more. =)

Author's Response: The Draco vs. Christo part was fun and satisfying to write! Thanks for your review. -fallenwitch

Absolutely fabulous! The narration in this chapter was phenomenal – I love how you incorporated Draco’s tone of sarcasm into the text; in short genius! I also loved this line “that ridiculous, brain-dead excuse for an organ in the middle of his chest would learn a bloody lesson.” Your portrayal of Draco is most assuredly an interesting and unique one. You show that he is not afraid of being cruel to himself, which is a most refreshing take on his persona. In fact this entire story has turned out as something rather unexpected and I mean that in a positive way. I also like the description of Christo and Draco being “two sides of the same coin, brothers crafted of the same material, each looking opposite way.” This is an extremely remarkable acknowledgement of how similar these two rivals are; in fact I think that Christo is what a “Draco who wasn’t a death eater” would be like (I’m not too sure if that makes sense to you but I thought I’d mention it). And last but not least: “He straightened and glanced around, cool and unflinching in the face of twenty-four Bulgarian wands aimed at him” – there is only one word my 17 year old mind can come up to describe this part and that is GANGSTER :D! I can very clearly envision Draco in that sort of situation. In short excellent work and I look forward to your next update :)!

Author's Response: Wow, what a review! I was taken by all of your insights and comments but especially intrigued by 1) Christo being what Draco, who was't a Death Eater, would be like! Not only insightful but well said. 2) Draco is part GANGSTER! I loved that! Just love it! Thanks so much for the awesome review. -fallenwitch

I only just caught up with this story. Your characterization of Draco is realistic, and great - he is snarky even under pressure. The relationship with Ginny remains a mystery, even though Draco seems to realise more and more what she means to him. I can't imagine that there will be a happy ending for d/g, but I don't care. I am hooked. I even like Christo - who is definitely a strikingly similiar polar opposite of Draco.

Author's Response: ladyendymion- Thank you for the wonderful review! I'm glad you find my characterization of Draco realisitic. It's a great compliment. And, yes, he is snarky through and through! You like Christo? So do I. However, we make up a minority of ACAW readers. Most folks would like to kill him! -fallenwitch

Poor Draco, he's completely caught up with Ginny and can't do a damn thing about it.

Just so you know this paragraph was especially brilliant.

"
But it was the masochist in him that couldn't seem to get enough of the irresistible torture she dished out, so he decided to Port on over for a second helping of the stuff, hoping to rid himself of his miserable affliction. Maybe after gorging himself on her foul presence and rotting from the inside out again, maybe - just maybe - that ridiculous, brain-dead excuse for an organ in the middle of his chest would learn a bloody lesson. Forget the noxious wench. If she screwed you over once, she'll do it again. How ruddy basic was that? Even a two-year-old Squib could magic that one. Merlin."

Author's Response: Glad you liked that one. I did too. -fallenwitch
