P.S. Bonnie Wright is great. But it's just...I thought a lil younger one will be best for Ashen, right? :D

Author's Response: Ginny ... Well, she's a different story altogether. I never liked Bonnie Wright. Maybe because 1 - I never liked her as an actress - I think she was the worst choice considering everyone cast. 2 - I didn't like (hated, in fact) the way they treated Ginny in the movies and this bad feeling ended up being transferred to the actress. It's not rational, I know, but what can I do? Nobody is perfect. When I'm writing Ginny, I always think of Karen Gillan's image. I think she would be my perfect Ginny, even though she’s not that young. But considering that GInny in Ashen is 23, 24 yo, I think it's a ok choice. I already told you that I LOVE your comments, right? The next chapter is coming, my dear! Thanks for the words, again. see ya soon, darling

Random QnA
I visualize Draco and Ginny as actual people sometimes (please tell me I am not the only one! Or it will be so awkward).
Tom Felton is great. No doubt. But I am thinking about it from book's pov and with that a fresh cast.
I think for Ashen Draco can be...have you watched American Horror Story Apocalypse and/or 1984? In Apocalypse the guy who played AntiChrist? I forgot his role in AHS 1984 though. If you have not seen any of these, then you can look for the actor's real name, Cody Fern. Let me know what you think? ^ ^
And for Ginny...I am still not sure. I have not seen a lot of red head actresses lol. Can you suggest, who you imagine?

Author's Response: hahahah, I cackled while reading this comment. Rest assured, you're NOT the only one. I do picture the characters when I'm writing and, especially, when I'm reading a book. It's part of the whole experience, I think. In general, I usually visualise Tom Felton as Malfoy. I think he was the perfect casting! But when I stray from his image or need someone a little older, Boyd Holbrook always comes to mind, I don't know if you know him. I think it has to do with the fact that I don’t imagine Draco - no character in this story, actually, as someone stunning (except for Blaise, maybe) This brings me to your suggestion. I didn't know Cody BUT MY GOD THAT MAN IS BEAUTIFUL. Really, I googled him and I looked at the screen for 30 seconds no stop. I'm a little bit intimidated haha I can't think of him as Draco precisely because I can't imagine Malfoy being that pretty.

It is the same with the Weasley brothers' attitude and reaction to Draco/Ginny's relationship. Especially Ron's. It is always shown like this. And tbh, it should be.
But here, for the first time, I agree to the Weasleys. Even Ron. Yes.
They are right and this will make things difficult.
AND I AM SO EXCITED FOR IT.
P.S. James is a cutie pie here! Loves his skeptical yet optimistic attitude towards his mom's marriage.
Also Ginny...she is so transparent with him! I LOVE it!

Author's Response: The Weasleys are right! Ginny's attitudes are sure to complicate things A LOT. The problem is... COnsidering her situation, Ginny is right as well. It was not the most honorable attitude, in fact. But in Ginny's case, the end justifies the means. The fact she’s not perfect - nor does she claim to be - makes her so real to me. I know several Ginnys in my life and that just makes me relate with her even more. I think she has such inherently feminine characteristics - her strength, her perseverance, her optimism. She falls, but always rises stronger. And she has no choice but to move on. Really, I love her BUT her life will not be easy because of her own choices. Ohhhh JAMES IS PERFECT. To me, it's very difficult to write children, but with him things flow easily. NO ONE WILL HURT MY BABY

Consummation?! I really hope Ginny gets pregnant! Tbh, it won't be too hard. I mean look at James. It was one time XDD
Anyway, jokes apart, it will be very hard for Ginny to keep contact with the Resistance and her family.
She is depending on those literal loopholes but she should have kept in mind that she is marrying Draco. Not any regular Death eater. How she gonna keep the respect of the Malfoy's name and help her people will be one of the most important elements of this story now! At least I believe so!

Author's Response: Ohhhh, don't give me ideas pelase! The story is already too complicated the way it is! (but I'll consider your hope, fear not) Yes, that will be the most complicated for Ginny from now on. How to deal with her individual interests and her family interests? There is a great conflict ahead. And that will bring Ginny another problem: her relationship with Draco. As we already know, he's not a person who forgives easily. And he values his family name ardently. If Ginny steps out of line, he will have no mercy. There will be very interesting next chapters, haha

Blaise is awesome!
He is a good friend! Even if he claims otherwise, but he is! I think he is looking after Draco and Ginny. He actually cares about them and knows that they are really lonely.
Also he is SO wise! I loved all of his dialogues. It actually shows how smart and observant YOU are as an author! :***

Author's Response: Someone told me that Blaise just looked like the guy that started the fire and then sat in a corner sipping his tea, laughing at everybody. I couldn’t agree more, haha. I looove writing Blaise! He’s sooo much fun! And he cares very much about Draco AND Ginny. So much to the point of… Well, we’ll see. I suppose Blaise has his own feelings and demons to deal with, after all. Oh, I'm blushing! Thank you for your words, really!

YES! THEIR MARRIAGE IS REGISTERED! (I mean it is quite the same thing, no?)

Author's Response: QUITE! They have a deal now! What's next? Will there be a marriage? (spoiler: yes, haha, I'm suck at mysteries)
