:KDFJGSLKDFJG!!! Have I ever told you how much I love you? Because I do. A whole lot.

=( what a gorgeous story. Every piece was so...beautiful and separate and...it really felt like pieces of a puzzle coming together which is interesting, cause of the title.

oo! and it was funny, I only got pulled out of the story once, and that's cause we just learned about tympanic membranes in class and I had to giggle and point for a second xP

AHHH! Ilovethisstory.

Author's Response: Hi Bela!
Wow, what a review. I laughed about your "tympanic membranes" moment! How funny and ironic. I'm glad you enjoyed this story. It's always a pleasure to hear from you. Love you back! -fallenwitch

Good job! This reads so beautifully and has a nice rhythm to it. Your descriptions (as always) are mesmerizing. I enjoyed this little angst-fest. ;-)

Author's Response: Thank you! The fact that you enjoyed this angst-ridden ride means a lot because I know it isn't your favourite genre. Thanks for reading! -fallenwitch

Oh dear God. The way you run your words is beyond beautiful. Your writing, I swear, is a work of art, enchanting to the point that I am torn between feeling awed or inadequate. Lovely job, just brilliant. Marcia is a lucky birthday girl.

Author's Response: Hello Lauren!
A work of art? Nah, that's pushing it. *laughs* I'm glad you enjoyed this one. It was different, wasn't it? Thanks so much for taking the time to drop by. I appreciate it. -fallenwitch

I think what I like most about this story is the ebb and flow of it. Draco's emotions, and his relationship with Ginny, seem to come in waves, and he is helpless in the face of the tide. At first, I absolutely hated the refrains (that sort of thing usually strikes me as horribly pretentious), but as I read more of the story, I realized that they sort of fit, that they were almost like more waves lapping at the shore. I can't say this is my favorite of your stories, but it is certainly well done and interesting to read. Thanks for posting it!



Author's Response: Hello Embellished,
What I love about your reviews is your honesty and concrit. I was worried about the refrains being pretentious and contrived as well; however, I had a damn good reason for using them... but I can't remember it now because it's been so long. *shakes aging head & laughs* I think writing means taking risks and trying something different every once in awhile. It doesn't always work. Sometimes it falls flat but that's okay. Thanks for dropping by my experiment. I loved and appreciated your review! -fallenwitch

AHGGH! My Dear Fallenwitch... it was beautiful. My heart just started pounding when the 'day had begun' TOTALLY wonderful! You know how I gush... but yeah -- I loved it. My birthday is in August, by the way! ;) HA HA HA! -- kidding kidding. I don't fel so bad, though. I wrote a fic for my bestfriend's birday - Dec 15th and it's not typed or betad yet. *slaps my own hands* ;)

Author's Response: Your bestfriend's birthday was December 15th? Yep, you are worse than I am but just barely! *laughs* Thank you for your gushing review. I bet you say that to all your authors. ;-) -fallenwitch

Incredible! Simply wonderful! Unfreakingbelievable!

Or, in other words, yes, I like it very much!

My favorite line: The blast of air from the trains whooshing past blows her skirt and her hair and his tenaciously strung heart.

I think my heart broke a little bit there. As well as here:

During the War, Draco lost his twisted sense of object permanence, misplaced it somewhere amidst all of his other lost belongings.

I need a tissue. Once again, as Becca would say, "You rock out loud!"

Author's Response: Oh seegrim, stop spoiling me. Funny thing about your favourite line is that was the scene that the entire fic was built around. Even though it makes a brief, rather unremarkable showing here, I was thrilled that you picked it out! Thanks so much for your help with this one. I appreciate it! -fallenwitch

Ha! After all that, we're back to the splash! Oh, all that anxiety. But it was an enticing read the oh, fifth time around anyway - and I'm sure Marcia will love it just as much. I especially like what you ended up doing with the dissolve line - a real post-War axiom. And you know, my services are available anytime - as to how helpful they've been to you - that's up to debate but of course you don't need me to creae great fiction. :)

Author's Response: *laughs* Yes, back to splash, sorry. It was a sound thing, not an intellectual thing. I spent some time wrestling with the dissolve line, trying to fingale something that would meet with your approval. Glad you finally freaking approve of something in this fic. *snickers* Thanks again for your help. You really know how to put an author through the hoops. *collapses from exhaustion*
