As a fan of HYD, I am a huge fan of this story — especially since when I was watching it (the LA. I love Matsumoto Jun) I, too, was picturing D/G — and I love the way you've twisted the HYD story and your own together to make sense. (tbh, I feel like your story makes more sense than HYD; that show required an intense suspension of disbelief regarding the character of that high school)

Anyway, I just wanted to drop in and say that I really have enjoyed this. I've read it once before — but that was when it only had 11 chapters or so — and i love it even more now.

I know that it's been a long while since you've updated (which is something that I am personally acquainted with) and I was just wondering if this was abandoned. Either way. I'll be following it. Excellent, excellent work. Your writing is lovely, the story is an incredibly original take, and you've breathed new depths into the characters: both the HP and HYD characters. I find myself enjoying both stories in new and awesome ways.

Thank you for exploring this AU. I adore it. You are wonderful. xx

You've updated! Even if it was a while ago! I'm so happy!

Hope, I can not believe that I've been reading this story for the past 6 years and it's still as exciting as it was when I first read it. You are the reason why I started watching all of these K-Drama's and though I know how HYD ends, I enjoy your interpretation and turning it into the D&G because it fits so well. I will continue to read as long as you continue to write! GJ as always.

Author's Response: Thanks Rashonda!! Your continued support means a lot!! When I stop and think that I've been writing this for 6 years, I have to remember that there are a few who have been READING it for 6 years. That's pretty incredible!!

THIS! This is exactly what I wanted! There were so many parts that I simply had to take a moment to stop reading and squeal because it was just too cute/perfect/amazing/romantic/lovely. I particularly loved "I feel it all for you" (basically that entire scene) and the gifts :)
I think I mention this every time I review, but Crossing Into Chaos is my absolute favourite fan fiction. I've had a crazy busy, stressful week, and seeing that this story was updated completely uplifted my spirits. Please update soon! You're awesome.

Author's Response: Thank you!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it - I knew I had to throw in a few sweet moments between the two, otherwise some readers might be out of my blood! I've got some time off in December, so I'm hoping to squeeze out another chapter early in the new year!

So glad to see this coming back, I've missed it. Would have read sooner, but, RL and all that, more soon I hope!
STT

oh so cute! SO CUTE! please please keep writing this is absolutely one of my favorites by far!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE CAN WE NOT GO THE WAY SEASON 2 DID WITH THE NON-FIANCEE GIRL? PLEASE I BEG YOU IMPLORE YOU! I don't want to be spoilery :( but are we going that way...?
Now that that's out of the way, Hello! I love HYD and you've put an awesome D/G twist to it. I'm enjoying it a lot and sometimes Ginny flickers into Makino and Draco into Doumyouji but they'res still distinctly Draco and Ginny. I like what you've done with Crabbe and Goyle and Tonks. Just. aslkfhaj. Your Draco is sooooo endearing and I think you've done a a great job with the jumper and dragon necklace as a way of making HYD elements into your own and making it more D/G. Oh and can I just say I like all the dragon reference bits all over CIC. It just works for me. :)) Take care!

Oh she's going home to the Weasleys right? Are we ever going to see Draco among the Weasleys? Like in HYD? Or is that spoilery?:))I'm sorry!

Author's Response: Hmm... I don't know what to say.... Well, I guess I could try to reassure you that it won't be *exactly* like season 2. There's going to be some higher stakes at play for these two, and a few different twists. Draco is quite a bit more mature (and smarter, lol) than Doumyouji, so we'll see how differently he might handle the situation, especially considering the backstory. And, no, I don't believe we'll be seeing Draco among the Weasleys... not for a looong time yet. They're too much of a roadblock - if they had any hint that their precious baby girl had the only Malfoy heir sniffing around, Molly Weasley would be all Mama Bear and that would be the end of Draco in a quick moment, hehe.

Thank you for updating, it is great that you have not abandoned it. I like Draco's possessiveness and how Ginny gradually appreciates him more, it feel as very natural progression and not forced in any way. A question: HYD strikes me as very cute and fluffy in some way and CIC is different, fluffiness is not there (good thing in my books :), so will you follow the HYD story line or will you change it? I hope this is generic enough question and it will not be spoiler for anybody

Author's Response: Hi there, thanks for commenting! And nope, your question isn't really a spoiler. While there definitely is a healthy dose of fluff in HYD, I actually find the story a bit dark - I mean, kids kidnapping other kids and beating them to a pulp, the main love interest basically going on a hunger strike in order to be with the girl he loves, amnesia... Which fits quite nicely with the CIC universe, where everything is pretty dark. Draco and Ginny have their own kind of fluffiness (his telling her that she's plain looking is his way of telling her she looks pretty, his way of spoiling her is to kidnap her for a weekend getaway, etc), but they aren't going to be the cuddles & giggles kind of couple. And now, we've reached the point in the HYD narrative where the REALLY dark stuff starts to creep in, so I would predict that things don't really get all that fluffy from here on out. There will be pockets of it (otherwise, how can you support this couple if it's all tragedy and tears??), but not a great deal. They're teenagers from opposite factions falling in love during a war.

Yay update! I'm super intrigued with where you will take this story. I think you've done an excellent job with using the HYD idea and really giving it your own twist. I also like that Draco is well aware that he isn't perfect and he doesn't seem to be trying to pretend he is or can be. The characters seems so realistic. I can't wait to see what his father wants from him! It's an interesting twist to have both parents there to cause him trouble. And what will the Weasleys think!? In this whole new type of world you have to wonder how they will react to Ginny's involvement with Draco. Until next time!

Author's Response: Thanks for commenting! I have to admit, I haven't really given the Weasleys a whole lot of consideration. They're more on the periphery of the story - but that's because if they WERE involved, there would be absolutely NO WAY Draco would ever come within 2 feet of Ginny ever again! So, they're a bit of a roadblock to their relationship, that's for sure. But, you may see them pop up at some point down the road.
