Is there gonna be a sequel?
Author's Response: Hehe I think we're only left to wonder exactly what Draco, Pansy, and Ginny does from this point on, less they knock my brain around enough to demand an end. Its all in your imagination. If you want, you're free to make your own version of how you think it ends! I'd love to read it. ^^ Thanks for reading!
Very interesting one-shot!
Author's Response: Why thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed!
WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY "THE END"? COME BACK NOWWW!!!! hahahahahaha this plot line could be the best thing in this fandom in a long long time, pleaseee, make it into a long one!
Author's Response: Oh, I couldn't continue this little plot line even if I wanted to. It'd be so filled with mind-f**k, I'd doubt anyone would survive by the end of it if I put my mind to it and allowed the characters to fully play out. We're just left wondering what could be at the end. . .;) Thanks for reading!
Okay, here's an actual review! :)
Wow! Well, this clearly had a lot of smut, not that I've ever been against that anyway, but I really do think that it was smut with a purpose and a direction. I don't know if this is what everyone else got out of it, but for me, the overwhelming theme of this fic is a real and terrible sadness, and that is where the smut leads. Desire is a dark, dark force here. Draco loses Pansy as his friend (and vice versa), Pansy loses Blaise, Draco loses Ginny as a soulmate... and finally, I think that the three main characters in question are going to end up being destroyed after the ending. Draco can't share Ginny, and Pansy never, ever would have wanted to desire her this way. Ginny's final look of "intrigue" is fascinating, because I could see her becoming the more manipulative one in the relationship, but I think that it would ultimately mean the end of her love for Draco now that she understands what he can really be.
Again, this makes me think of a Greek tragedy-- where people are doomed not only by circumstances, but also by their characters. I kept giving advice along the lines of "Why don't any of you try to find out if there's a way of breaking this!!! Aren't you supposed to be WIZARDS?? Why don't you at least TRY???" (Um... yes... I know that they can't hear you in an online fic... ;) But it's as if all of them reach a point where they're so mesmerized by the oncoming tragedy that they can't really alter it.
So basically, this is one of those really disturbing fics that I'll never get out of my head now! ;) But THAT being said, I think that you write characters who are true to themselves, which is the key. For instance... there was once a fic about which I will give absolutely no identifying details at all, except to say that it was several years ago and I haven't even seen the author in the fandom in forever. It was a very good fic. A lot of people liked it. But it disturbed me deeply, and here's why: In it, Draco found out that Ginny betrayed him, and he wasn't interested in understanding the reasons why. He was a totally evil bastard who kind of destroyed her. HOWEVER, everything suddenly turned all cute and kissy and fluffy, so it was all right. Bunnies and rainbows, the end. Now, that's disturbing. This Draco, OTOH, wasn't going to be redeemed, but he (and we) didn't get an artificial happy ending despite that fact. There was really no way that these characters could have had a happy ending, and this fic doesn't shy away from that. So, kudos to you! (And the next one's going to be fluffy... right? ;)
Author's Response: Yes, its about time that my characters have a little fluff in their lives! XD I can promise you the next D/G that is going into the queue is going to have nowhere near the mature, dark intensity of my other fics. Now that I said that, I -loved- your review and here's why. I am glad that you saw how desire worked within this fic -- a powerful, pulling force that compels people to do things outside of normal, acceptable circumstances or events outside of their control[Union]. If there never was a desire for Ginny, the Slytherins would continue their lives as normal. I'm biting my lip trying to avoid writing any follow-ups to this one-shot due to your interpretation of Ginny towards the end, which was almost hit-mark for what I was trying to portray: By the outcome of the circumstances, I definitely foresaw the "Slytherin" side of Ginny come out and become manipulative due to her power over Pansy and Draco. Its the nobility within her that keeps her the 'good' one in the unfortunate circle, but I wanted to show that she was slowly changing the closer and closer Pansy and Draco were to be wedded. I don't like giving 'false happy endings' in order to satisfy people's beliefs of fandom, where everything should be happy and fluffy and end with a wonderful conclusion. My sort of 'Happy endings' are always a bit warped; I'd like to show that Draco and Ginny remain together in the end, which is what everyone wants anyway, but whatever circumstances they've face leaves an impression. If they're in happier circumstances, then yes, the story is going to involve that. Darker circumstances leaves behind morality stains and questionable characters that can't simply be redeemable right at the 'end' of the fic. In this case, Ginny and Draco are selfish enough to cling to each other out of their love, and Pansy refuses to let her part in it be ignored. We're left with the hint that their lives together are going to be very, very destructive. I like to think that the choices the characters make in the fic definitely lead to the outcome of how it all ends, and none are ever ignored for the sake of rainbow endings. It doesn't mean there won't be happier stories, oh no! I do hope you'll enjoy the next one that I'll give -- lesser smut, lesser angst, more cheese and drama I'd like to think of it. And thanks so much for your reviews, Anise, you're one of my favorite authors!
It is my first time to read a DG story having such a setting. Considering I have read thousands, I have to say your setting is quite refresh and interesting.
Your Draco is so dark, but it fits him. I generally can't stand Good Draco, those kind of Draco which has a Harry inside. I always love dark Draco. The only problem is I didn't see his good side on Ginny. I kinda get what you want to tell us, that is Draco love Ginny so much that outdo the magic, but it seems a little too subtle.
Still it is a very good story, especially your perspective.
Author's Response: Thanks for your review =) I'm afraid that the story's in Pansy's POV, so she didn't have a real chance to see the good sides that Draco did have with Ginny -- only catching their heated moments and feeling the effects of his desire through the magic they shared until Ginny became a shared desire. Hence, we only get to see the horrific sides of Draco and how he acts with people he doesn't love, which happens to be quite vicious as you read. There was no room for Good!Draco in this fic, sadly, but I do appreciate the fact that you enjoyed fully the perspective that I was trying to portray. ^^
Wow. That is... just... wow.
*picks jaw up off floor*
Wow.
Author's Response: *helps you pick up your jaw.* I know, I know. Thanks for reading XD!
That was so wicked! And strangely enthralling. Draco is such a bastard. I liked the idea of the Union and that he can trick himself into forgetting about it. Blaise says that Pansy is stronger, because she can give Blaise up - but it seems that Draco is stronger (in another great way), because he can trick himself for Ginny.
that was so dark - very good kind of dark.
Poor Pansy.
Author's Response: I agree. Blaise and Pansy have their own biased outlook about Draco and Ginny's situation -- seeing the fact that they want to hold onto each other as "weaker" and "meaningless" due to the fact that magic binds Draco and Pansy. The story is told from Pansy's POV, so we can only see how Pansy sees Draco and Ginny in her own mind. I'm glad that you're able to see Draco and Ginny's stubbornness as strength though -- if you look at things from Draco's point of view, you see that he loves Ginny so much that he won't let people tell him its impossible for him to be with her. Nothing, not even Archaic magic, can keep him from his Ginny, and Ginny is just as stubborn to let Draco go. Their measure of strength is very different. Thanks for reading!
Ahem.
There WILL be an actual review of this fic soon.
Meanwhile... a palate-clearing exercise, for everyone's enjoyment.
“Happy, darling?” Draco asked Ginny as she snuggled in his arms before the crackling fireplace in the ski lodge in Cairngorm.
“Divinely,” she sighed, making a little moue of sheer pleasure as he pressed her more deeply into the bearskin rug. The results that followed were, beyond the slightest shadow of a doubt, inevitable—as well as being rated for all audiences, deeply meaningful, and as tender as a chicken breast beat for several hours by a mallet prior to a fussy recipe gleaned from the pages of *Mastering the Art of French Cooking.*
Afterwards, they made chocolate chip cookies and fed them to one another whilst calling each other by irritating pet names. Draco bundled Ginny up in a peach-colored ermine and told her that she looked like his very own sweet snow bunny, kissing her on the tip of her nose. She blushed becomingly. They frolicked in the snow, skated on a pond by moonlight, and then threw off their clothes with abandon and went skinny-dipping.
“There seems to have been a rather sudden break in the continuity of seasons,” mused Draco.
“Yes,” agreed Ginny, “but it does make this scene much sweeter, don’t you think?”
“Positively saccharine,” said Draco. “How much longer will this last?”
“We haven’t discussed our hopes and dreams by moonlight yet, you know," pointed out Ginny.
“Right,” said Draco, sighing.
They sat on a grassy knoll and did so rather hurriedly. Draco announced that he was utterly devoted to the cause of stamping out his latent evil tendencies, including alliance to Death Eaters, lingering fascination with Dark Spells, and lurking desires to participate in quite naughty activities with Ginny, some involving handcuffs.
“Are you quite sure that you really need to give up that last one, Draco?” Ginny asked wistfully.
“In the interests of strictly PG-rated activities, I’m afraid that I do,” he said. “What about you?”
“I’ve given up all ambition to do anything except bustle round a kitchen and care for our 2.5 children,” Ginny said, with a distinct lack of enthusiasm in her tones. “That’s the average number, you know.”
“I always wondered how that unlucky half child managed to get on,” said Draco.
“Are we done now?” she asked.
He glanced up at the clock, which read “half-past unbearable levels of fluff.” “I believe so.”
“Oh, thank all the gods!” Ginny gave a tremendous sigh of relief and immediately changed into a red leather bondage outfit.
“I rather like that one,” Draco said appreciatively. “Do you have the whip?”
“But of course,” said Ginny, brandishing a blacksnake number in highly suggestive fashion.
“That’ll do nicely,” said Draco, his voice cheerful. “I believe that we’re ready for the new Rinney fic now.”
Author's Response: Oh my God, you're wonderful XD!! Just pure wonderful! <3
i like
Author's Response: Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed =)
I'm the defiant sort. What inspired this?
And you always make me uncomfortable :)
...kidding.
At least your smut has a plot, which is more than what I can say for most...
Author's Response: You're totally not kidding. XD The inspiration behind this fic reminded me of a real life couple I know with similar problems to Pansy and Draco's dilemma. Only the girl is in love with another person while the boy has accepted the fact that they're meant to be together[They share a child.] As far as the smut and all goes, that's just my own perverted, sick, dirty, nasty little mind. I wanted to use quim in a story, and I did. Hah.
My first impressions:
1)...wait. What?
2)oh, ***t!
3)The hottest dramatic ff I've read in a while.
Overall:A magical mindf**k, 10/10
Author's Response: Wow thanks so much for your review! I'm so glad it gave you so many emotions, hah XD!
