what can I say? Just as Embellished said: "When Mynuet featured this story, I took it as a sign that it was time for me to reread it (not for the first time!). Then I realized that I have probably never reviewed it, so here I am making amends. :)"
This story touched me as it did the first time, and I read it in one breath, even letting my worldly obligations aside. Superb!

Author's Response: (*Finally* figured out how to respond to reviews...) Thanks for rereading and still admiring!

It's been so long since you posted the last chapter that I could continue to live a normal life, and even forget to worry about what Harry would say. I couldn't sleep well for a week, and even if you made me hate Harry by this point, all I could do was hold to the silly hope that he was a Gryff after all, and he was goddamn Harry! And all the things about choices Dumbledore always told us came to mind. And finally you didn't disappoint and The-Boy-Who-Lived stopped being a prat for a second and did the right thing as it was expected of him, The Hero of the Wizarding World. Even if afterwards he showed that he is capable of hating, but then, after choosing what was right, i think I can forgive his harsh words.
What one can say about Draco? He is always so real in your story, so selfish but generous with whom he cares. Or whom he feels possessive about...
Ginny, never saying a word, is so present and crucial in this turning of the events, her only word beeing her brother's name, always thinking about others wellfare instead of hers. So completelly opposite of Draco, and so perfect for him, bringing what he has best inside his soul.
And to finish the review, it's a relief that Snape is well and whole as well, Draco still needs him so much.

But... And always there's a "but"... Is it just me, or anyone else has this feeling that we're coming to an end?

*running to the virtual kitchen to bake more virtual cookies for Anise*

Pleasepleaseplease let Snape survive this ordeal, and keep his sanity intact. I'm worried about Draco's health as well, the whole 6-month thing, but I guess in this place of power it doesn't matter. Now waiting for Ginny and the rescue! *Hmmm the virtual chocolate-chip cookies are almost ready*

?He?s ten times the man you?ll ever be, Harry Potter!?
OMGOMGOMG!! *squeals*
That was the cherry on top of everything. I feel sorry about Hermione, though, she looks so... tired. I'm worried.

We are meddling a lot with ancient magic, aren't we? Loved to know when Draco's obsession with Ginny started. And, as usual, there is Snape trying to help in any small way he cans. Perfect! And the daily updates... Yummy!

Daily chapters... Yummy! And I taught may hotmail not to throw the archive e-mails in the junk folder, so, as I'm always connected to MSN, I nearly jump of excitement when the tiny number (1) appears, telling me that there's a new chapter of this fic out. Yes, becoming addicted and dying to know what happens next. Continue with the good work!

Ok. How may I begin this? I DON'T WRITE REVIEWS! Ever. It just happened that I stumbled over this particular fic that I don't know why I haven't read before since you're listed in my favorites. Then I started reading, FROM CHAPTER ONE! And I had three essays due for tonight's class, and I managed to write them all in 47 minutes. I went to class about chapter 28, and right as I was back home I continued reading, since I was so entranced by you evilness. It's 1:30 in the morning and I just discovered that I HATE YOU. Please, update!

What was the evergreen doing at Bella's room? I know she hasn't wake up, in theory at least, but, as Draco could use the tree to overhear Ginny's conversation with Snape, couldn't Bella possibly do the same?
I went for a weekend in Rio de Janeiro, so I missed the daily updates, but thinking again, it was nice, since I could see the trail of parachutes before me and be warned about the cliffies.
Spectacular work, as usual. *bows*

TEASER!!!
Ginny is being awfully irrational, and I'd NEVER thought Draco to be so concerned about something other than himself. Well written as usual, and left us hanging again... your tricks never seem to cease, uh?
*holding for dear life at the cliff waiting for the next installment*

I'm completely wordless.
Ron and Mione are so cute, and their love is so beautiful, and of course he would forgive anything, specially because it was something that happened to her. I kept remembering when she escaped, wanting to bring Snurk with her.
And about this big Andrew and Alistair's secret... What could it possibly be?
And Ginny's real feelings?
So many questions...

Ok... First "Fernando de Noronha" (note spelling ;D ) then, "Brigadeiro trees"... You surely have met some Brazilian people around... Just the thought of "Brigadeiro trees" made my mouth water. And, hey! Did you know there's a way of making them using a microwave? My special secret recipe! ^^

Author's Response: No wayyyy... IN THE MICROWAVE? How much for that recipe??? (Not that spending a half-hour by the stove isn\'t a pain, but...) Shoot did I misspell Fernando de Noronha? You\'d think that having been there I would know how to write it. My bad. :/

Sorry for the late review! I read this chapter the day it came out.
Well, I see what you're doing with her frequent slips, but then, one cannot change to the core. And maybe WE see them better 'cause we know who she is, but looking from the other characters point of view, it's not that obvious. It's a really tricky balance you're maintaining here.
Now, with this not-so-unexpected situation of Blaise keeping an eye on her, those slips are going to be more crucial.

Well, I looked in your profile for some e-mail or msn, but there's none. No mistery in the microwave brigadeiro recipe.
Sweet condensed milk, and Nesquick as usual (there is a range between 2~4 tablespoons of Nesquick, based on personal taste), but in this case you don't use butter (yeah! so it's kindda lighter!) and you just mix the condensed milk and Nesquick together in a HIGH bowl.

(Note the HIGH part, it's important, you can use a bowl heighing about 10cm. Remember when milk boils it goes all the way up, so when you are doing the regular way you keep stirring it, in the microwave you won't).

8~10 minutes in the higher potency, always depends of the microwave, and voilá.
There you get your brigadeiro without effort. ^^

Author's Response: No problem! We\'re not on a time schedule, are we? ;) Slips are going to become dangerous very VERY soon. In fact, next chapter (number 12) is the first step toward the downfall. Question being: how eager will Blaise be to tell Draco is wife is Ginny Weasley, eager to get her revenge on him? He might be decapitated in the process, like those messengers of Nero who were killed when they rbought bad tidings... (jk about the decapitated part. we like that nice little head of his on his manly shoulders) Thanks a bunch for the review AND the recipe. I will try this very soon, mwahahahaaaa.

Ok... It's past midnight and I'm nearly dying of a headache, then I was calling it a day and just one secondo before shutting everything off there came the warning of a new chapter of one of my favorites.
The headache is suddenly gone and I was eager to read it throughly. ^^
Uhuhuhuhuhu they're going to heve a baby!!! (aka "Malfoy's heir")
Why didn't Draco think about that before? *wide grin imagining the surprise she will have*
About Zabini discovering who she is, I think, as you said before, whe will be really careful about the way he will break the news.
Nice touch about Draco wishing she didn't have his mum hair. ^^
And she is being more herself each passing day. No good, no good.
Yay! First review!

Author's Response: Well I\'m glad this help, though Advil or Motrin have similar effects regarding headaches ;) Yeaaaaaah, they\'re going to have a baby... Unless Ginny does something crazy when she realizes she\'s pregnant... Then Draco would have to prevent her from harming herself and/or the baby (or would he...) Zabini IS going to be a threat, though he isn\'t as bad as one may expect him to be. He\'s merely loyal to Draco... And you\'re right, Ginny is letting herself go, probably because she feels so comfy with fandom\'s handsomest wizard. Thanks for reviewing, as always :D
