Oh god, yes! The twists and turns in this one left me with that queasy feeling, like I've been on one rollercoaster too many. If you write one more misunderstanding for D/G, I may trip over and land face first myself! But it was brilliant and painful and heartwrenching to see Draco and Ginny hurting for no reason. Thank you so much for updating. I hope you get your computer fixed soon - for all our sakes! -fallenwitch
Author's Response: Haha, you should be talking! I'm still in suspense over "The Slytherin's Witch." And you've started something new too! Not that I'm complaining...but well, I hope to work by example then.

Wonderful and well-written story. The suspense of Draco not knowing the reason behind Ginny's actions is palpable. I can hardly wait to see how you make the story unfold, even if he doesn't find out for awhile. I really like your vulnerable Draco.
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I like vulnerable Draco too, even if he's a bit OOC, but I hope to provide a reasonable explanation for it!

I'm too lazy to log in, but it's me!
I just wanted to say that I was so excited to get the e-mail that said you had updated! I've been waiting for it for ages!
I loved this chapter and at first I thought that maybe it should have ended with Hermione explaining what happened and Draco figuring out why Ginny was being the way she was but after I read it over again and thought it out this makes me want the next chapter more than I wanted this one! I want to see if Draco realizes what happened!
Ooh! Please update soon!
Author's Response: You read it over again? Wow, I'm flattered. And I know, it has been ages since I updated. But I don't think it will be the case next time!

Snape skipping? I thought something was off! But oh no! Ginny doesn't understand! I fear for Draco and Ginny!
Please make it all better! I can't take Ginny snogging someone else!

Gah! Such a large cliffe! I fear for my life!
I wasn't as upset as I was about the illustrations as I was when I saw them as the next chapter.
I really like them! I hope you didn't take my comments about the "not an actual update thing" to heart. And if you did, I'm truly sorry.
I absolutely love this fic and was sorely disappointed when I saw pictures instead of a new chapter.
But I could easily get over it if you update soon!
Author's Response: I didn't think that was toooo much of a cliff... I suppose I just have more evil things planned for our poor Draco. Um, which I do. I'll be sure to warn people when I next post illustrations instead of a chapter!

Well, I really do enjoy a vulnerable Draco. I also enjoy that you gave him a power that 1) no one else has and 2) is something pure and good. I like it. I'm off to the next chapter...or maybe bed and the next chapter will greet me with my morning coffee tomorrow. I'm still undecided.
Author's Response: =) i really appreciate that you're going thru the trouble of giving me feedback for each chapter! it's really helpful getting reader response. thanks!

How did I miss the first few chapters of this story? It's brilliant so far. I love it when people make Draco love his Mum...it makes me happy to have him just a bit OOC and have loyalty to his Mum. YAY!

Noooooo! I kept looking around, sure there was another paragraph or two. When that failed, I fell over that cliff, staring into the abysmal darkness of that damn waiting game - hoping to hang on by the tips of my fingernails until your next chapter and some relief. Jeez...my heart is breaking for them. Well, at least they now realize the depth of the love they have for each other and the associated pain that goes with the loss of such a thing. Small consolation when you have to snog Dean or try to beat back your newly realized heart...argh!!! Yep, a most satisfying chapter which didn't disappoint in the least.
Wow, I had no idea this was your first fic. I am very impressed! Nah, Boalt doesn't make admissions mistakes. Pat yourself on the back! UCBerkeley? Love it! Love it! Love it! I'm a third generation grad myself! Cheers. -fallenwitch
Author's Response: Well, I'm sorry to prolong the waiting for as long as I will have to this time around. (I suppose I shouldn't be responding to reviews now then...) But in any case, thank you again for another stunning and thoughtful review!
I've actually never thought I would EVER write any fanfic. Even after I got sucked into the DG fandom. But well, this cookie wouldn't leave and here you have it!
3rd generation, huh? We'll have to see where my family loyalities end up lying bc my sister and I (or at least, I will soon enough) graduated from UCLA. I almost went to Cal for undergrad, changed my mind the last minute. I still run into ppl who think I go there. Well, I suppose they're right now!

Chapter 4 - Unwilling, Part Deux on Mar 05, 2006 05:11 pm
Just stumbled onto this gem of a fic. Why didn't I read it before? I am drawn to your characterization of Draco. Who gives a damn if he's a bit OOC? He's spectacular. His internal state of angst and insecurities and unknown Black Alnair demons are reflected in his fragile external physical state as well. This is how I conceptualize him as well - internally tortured beyond belief - but you take that one step further. I love his attachment to Ginny. Our 'healer' is terrified of the healing powers of his love for her and of her love for him, yet he cannot help but be drawn to her. God, he maybe a Malfoy, but he needs her love to sustain him, esp. now. Will it, perhaps, save him in the end? Hmmm... I have no fears that they will fall for anyone other than each other, not with the way you have created them. I think I'll sign on for this ride. Thanks for the air time and for your wonderful fic! I will shut up now. -fallenwitch
Author's Response: I don't think I'm terribly against you going on at all, especially in regards to your own fics. =) I espeically find it interesting how er, you've characterized my characters? However, I don't want to reveal too much. All in due time. Thanks again for the excellent review!!
