//She adopted her most dramatic voice. "Your mission, should you choose to accept it--"

Blaise raised his hand. "You plural? Am I included in this?"

Ginny nodded. "Yes, you too, Blaise."

About to continue, Blaise cut in again. "Is Daphne included? I don't want to have to push my own wheelchair."

She massaged her forehead. "Yes, she can come too."

Draco raised his hand. She glared furiously at the man, who just smirked broadly. "No questions, Lieutenant. I just wanted to see you make that face."//

HAHA. This part, but especially this part to the end of the chapter, is so funny! The chemistry between the characters is so good in this story. You just can't help but laugh along. And now Blaise isn't the sole reason Ginny is tolerated. Draco likes her for herself now, and you can totally see him opening up to her, even in such a minor way as joking and being silly with her and Blaise.

Blaise and Daphne are adorable together, and I liked Warrington teasing Draco and Ginny in the previous chapter. Since he's part of the squad I'm sure we'll see more of him, but I hope we get a little more background with him and interaction between him and Ginny.

I love how Ginny and Draco, slowly, begin forming a friendship. If I was in Ginny's place, I'd never move out of Malfoy Manor. Huge rooms,
beautiful views from the windows, breathtaking grounds with a forest (!) and a lake.
And of course how could I forget about Quidditch pitch. No, I would never leave the place. And I think Ginny will want to stay too.
Narcissa was amazing. A real lady in every way. The moment when she reprimanded Gregory (when Ginny entered the room), and his response to it, was hilarious.
Thank you so much for an extra chapter.
I'm waiting for the next chapter. The Weasley weekly dinner is going to be so much fun.

Yes! The promised review! :)

I think I missed reviewing the last chapter, so that'll be here too.

I loved seeing Ginny at MM. )And I think I want to move there... ;) Yep, that's what I'll do... in some alternate universe, I'm SURE it will work.) Narcissa's reactions were just right... not unwelcoming, exactly, but it makes sense that she'd be cautious with Ginny, and very alert to whatever might be going on between Ginny and her son. There's something about all of the forces tugging at Draco in the past years of his life that is summed up just by the existence of the Manor, and the way it's described. He still has all of these possessions, and yet they couldn't begin to make up for everything he had lost, and, at the start of this fic, for everything that he now understands that he had never been.

I also see more of Ginny's character, and her need to make up for how ineffectual she felt she was during that last year at Hogwarts before the end of the war-- not just the last battle, I think.

I never really know if it actually IS a good idea for the Slytherin Squad to fight or not, and I think that's part of what makes these dilemmas so interesting. How many people on it can really be trusted? OTOH, who could do a better job of understanding what's going on now, and of maybe solving it? And the Weasley dinner!! Oh, this should be good...

Glad to know Blaise is okay! Also, gahhh, your cliffhangers. Good to know another chapter will be posted this week ;)

Author's Response: I do love fun cliffhangers. And don't worry, this won't be the last of them ;) *maniacal laughter*
