BRILLIANT

haha, I really liked this chapter, and you aren't alone in being easily amused!

Chapter 11
NOOO!
I’ve reached the last written chapter!
And now? Well, now you’ve another reader waiting hopefully to see your story updated! And I really you you keep up with your fast updates, so I don’t have to wait long (well, patience isn’t a virtue of mine *grin*)
Btw, I’m so happy to see I was right about the candle (and if you were wondering… no, I didn’t cheated, I’ve wrote my reviews while reading every chapter, without looking above for spoilers. What, that would have ruined the surprise, don’t you agree?). But, now, Ginny has another problem then. Why she cares about Malfoy? Or, better, why his presence bothers her enough to make him appear in her visions? I can really understand her confusion and her worries, especially because that means she’s thinking less of Harry (not that I complain about it, but the girl hasn’t already understood what is better for her, so we have to be indulgent *grin*). But she should have learned that when you are curious about something, there’s anything that you can do about it. And if you are curious, it’s normal to think about what picked your attention.
But, at least, being around Malfoy taught her well: I so loved when she cornered him because of his broom and so he had actually to help her. Even if, I dare say, with all his wandering around her and all his annoying attitude, probably he would have helped her anyway. Even if, maybe, not so easily.
And I actually laughed when she set down her conditions… she was very careful about them and she didn’t left any leak for Draco to actually spoil her plan and get her a good detention.
Moreover, I love how the two acted together… even if things are still at the beginning, I can feel how much they fit together and how much they are already close. They can almost understand most of what is going through their mind, with just a good glance… even if Draco is still pretty unreadable, but that’s because Ginny uses the wrong approach.
I noticed also that the insulting changed completely level… it’d be clear to everyone that they do out of habit and just because they are starting to enjoying it. It’s really near the step when they are going to miss each other and to actually see that they can stand each other presence, even if maybe just because they can’t find anyone better.
So, I LOVED this chapter, because there was a lot of action and explanation. I think you did even a better god with setting and dialogues, without missing a single beat that could help us to understand how people are really feeling, despite they words. And I was so surprised by Draco’s small slip off. It’s clear he’s reaching his limit but I’m starting to fear what is going to happen when Ginny dares to ask him what was wrong and what happened that summer. Maybe he wouldn’t be able to bear the questions and he’s going to explode? And what REALLY happened during that summer?
Surely, Lucius was realised from Azkaban (or I should say he evaded?) and people didn’t were happy about Draco’s failure. Moreover, he didn’t want to join the Death Eater and he already knows that his life is in danger, as he said to Pansy.
What I can really understand is why he’s so important for Voldemort. And even if Pierce gains his trust, how he could manage to convince him into joining the dark side? Draco seemed quite sure of his decision and I don’t think that Pierce is going to change is mind and betray the Dark Lord. So, unless someone else find out what’s happening (Ginny, perhaps? I don’t think McGonagall is as good as Dumbledore into knowing what’s going on around the castle, so I don’t count exactly on her) and warns Draco, I think bad times are approaching.
Last question: how could Snape pop in and out of Hogwarts without anyone noticing? It’s quite strange that he can floo so easily into Pierce chamber, especially with all the wards set around the castle in a moment like that. Unless he’s still a double agent, so someone let him in…

Long live the energizer bunny! Great chapter. I'm enjoying the relationship between Draco and Ginny. They're developing a good rapport.

Bravo! I adore this story, I truly do. You write a very believable Draco and the dynamic between him and Ginny is impeccably done. I wait patiently for the next chapter.

Like Ginny at one point in this chapter, curiosity is EATING me alive!!!! What happened with Malfoy over the summer?? Please! aargh! *clears throat* Anyway, fabulous story; I'm addicted. Do keep updates coming frequently please... yeah? :)

I think this chapter shows them working starting to come together on their thinking. I liked it. I can not wait to see where it will go from here.

Things have yet to come full circle. But, I really like the progression that you've taken in there budding relationship. They've come an exceptionally long way, since he manhandled her twice in this chapter and she didn't hex or threaten him, but actually listened to what he had to say. Draco is so moody, one moment he's being somewhat carefree and the next he's shooting daggers at you. Right now Ginny still has preconceived notions of what/who Draco is, and what she believes his family has molded him into but he's surprising her when he does something unDracoish. Only thing that surprised me there was no Jon in this chapter, I was looking forward to them possibly having a follow-up convo. But all the same, it flowed great together. I enjoyed it, and look forward to the next chapter. Nite.

I loved Draco in this chapter--you really captured him in all his annoying, pratish glory. And I kind of like that Pierce didn't appear at all. That shows that Draco and Ginny can manage to make things progress without him. Thanks for the update!

hahaha, I saw the energizer bunny on TV the other day, too, and had exactly the same reaction =P

ooo, I've been waiting for some sort of breaking point! PLEASEKEEPGOING! I love this story!

I think it's brilliant how he got them in there, LOVEDIT. I'd totally do that, too.

And I like what he said, a lot, too. Just the way you worded it was really cool.
