hahaha, loved this one as well...

distractions are lovely, aren't they? I love the way you said some things in this one, they really came through as more than just part-of-the-plot.


The Hidden Doorway by kjcp    (Reviews - 201)

Ginny, Harry, and Draco have been leading separate lives for years, but then a disturbing case involving mind manipulation brings them all together. Rows break out, animosity and hatred grow, people die, and friendship is tested. In the midst of all that, is it possible for romance between two unlikely people to bloom?

ahhh! So I just started reading this this afternoon, and I love it! Really interesting. The last chapter did throw me off a bit, but especially at the end, I was really glad you'd included all of it. And this one! Somehow I was under the mistaken impression that this was finished, so now I'm just a bit...anxious? I suppose. Well, I hope you update soon, so we can find out exactly what happened with Cecilia and what's going to happen to Ginny, and how she'll finally "need" a man, etc. Can't wait!!

ahhhh, I can't believe I'm done =( I need to learn not to read incomplete stories, this always happens. Not enough relationship!!! *pouts* they've only kissed once and while it was wonnderfulllll, it was only once!

and now, i'm nearly late for work. must run. this is great, please update quickly!!!

Author's Response: I’m sorry! I hate getting to the end of a fic and realising that, no, there’s more to come and I have to wait patiently. Yes, I realise there hadn’t been a whole lot of DG page time but it’s important (to me, at least and I have all the power *cackles evilly*) to set up their, and more specifically, Ginny’s back story, before delving into their relationship which if all goes to plan should happen relatively soon chapter wise. Ad for an update coming quickly … Quickly… hmmm I’m sure I’ve heard of that word somewhere before, though not a word that has cemented its place in my vocabulary. However, slowly, languid, intermittent, stagnant, leisurely, all firmly in place unfortunately. I should, however, have a relatively substantial span of time to work on this in the next two-three weeks, so I’m hopeful that an update will be forthcoming. Thankyou for your review and I hope you continue to enjoy SN. :D p.s. Hope you got to work on time!

Cedar, Columbine; Coriander and Hemlock by tudorrose1533    (Reviews - 50)

A story of flowers and intrigue and memories best forgotten. Ginny Weasley's Christmas holidays are haunting and confusing, as she is drawn to the presence of of an elusive and mysterious Draco Malfoy who is altogether too memorable for anybody's good.

Break in the sun (till the sun breaks down) by Peki    (Reviews - 235)

Harry Potter defeats Lord Voldemort, and the wizarding world rejoices. Ginny Weasley's hopes and dreams seem to come true, at last; Draco Malfoy's end in Azkaban prison. But there is more to life than the obvious choices, and as Ginny and Draco struggle to redefine themselves in a post-war world, a chance encounter leads to more than either of them could ever have imagined...

hahaha, fun! True, the premise is bordering on cliche, but that can always be remedied by good characters and fun dialogue, both of which you always have.

lol, though, at the coming out in public before telling her in private part. Most OoC thing you've had him do yet (which is great, cause you played it off so well)

I loooooovvveee yoooouuuuuuuuuuuuuu

I'm *cho*ing up. ..well, i'm not. but i'm all warm and fuzzy and loving yooouuu! I was all mad when she told him they couldn't hang out anymore, and this was aaaaaawwwwesommmmmee in getting them back together. hopefully they'll frickin kiss sometime soon, although, knowing you, it'll take them at least one, if not two entire chapters to admit it to each other cause they'll be afraid the other doesn't feel the same way and Nott will be all creepy and stuff.

gah, why is Nott so creepy? He's the only one I haven't figured out yet...mostly cause he's the only one you haven't done a POV from xP

Date: Feb 17, 2007 Title: Chapter 18: Naomi

hehe, I LOVED IT! I loved Naomi, and Pierce, and Draco ("He KNEW he was going to do something stupid if she came with him" HAHAHA!) and just...gah.

I can't wait for more, this is awesome XD

Reviewer: arabela Signed
Date: Feb 22, 2007 Title: Chapter 19: Jewels and Disruption

Nott is officially FAR too creepy for...for me, I spose =P

KEEP THEM COMING! That's what I thought. xP I LOVE this story and I can't wait for more, seriously.

And ...less Nott. Or explaination of Nott (which, yaknow, could mean killing him. I'd be okay with that. People that...creepy need to...go away, lol) And I LOVED the More-Pierce thing, that was awesome, I hope he's really keeping up with Naomi, she's a sweetie.

Although I have a feeling that if Ginny's life is ever threatened, Pierce had better watch out for Naomi, cause...ooo, Draco will be *pissed*.

XD I can't wait to read more!

D/G interaction is fabulous and all but EXPLAIN THEODORE NOTT for Heaven's sake!!!! And hurry up I'm getting all...uncomfortable. not that I wasn't before, but still. unbelievably creepy.

and OMG Naomi's working for somebody?!?! I can't believe I didn't already think of that, but still. wooowwww, poor Jon. I hope she's not.

I love the quick updates!! =)

anyway - AAHHHH!!!!! Ginny kiiiissssed himmmm! I'm so excited. Moreplease. And get Naomi back here, I don't trust her. ...that, and she'll stop Pierce from hurting Ginny. Unless she's working for someone. Whoknows. Maybe someone's going to try and use his own tricks against him.

...I'm sorry for the yelling, hehehe XD I'm just superexcited and this chapter came SO FAST! and I squeeeeeed, hahaha

wow, i'm turning into a fangirl.

...ah well.

PLEASE UPDATE QUICKLY. While I'm utterly THRILLED that Draco finally figured out Pierce was a Death Eater buuuuttttt, you ended in the middle of a conversation!!! Cliffhangers are just mean.

brilliant.

but mean.

ohhhhnoooo! oh dear. And he's got nowhere to escape to to brood =( poor thing.

but AHH!!! I thought one of these might be on its way XD

but OMG POOR LITTLE BEN! And dammit Severus =( be nice! I just hope someone starts believing her about her little boy cause I don't want to see his hand in a box.

but YAY for the DGness, omg, it was FABULOUS! ...I really don't like the idea of him hiding out in that shack, though. He should go to that little room he hid Ginny in, then she could visit him any day of the week, when she had time. =D

agh, can't wait for more!

Reviewer: arabela Signed
Date: Apr 05, 2007 Title: Chapter 25: Missing

ohnooo, MORE D/G!!!! I still think he should take up residence in that little alcove of his =P

and ohschnap! Pierce is out for blood, now, man...I'm surprised he had the presence of mind to think about how he wouldn't be able to find Draco without Ginny. My opinion is that if he killed Ginny...Draco'd soon comeout of the woodwork. But it'd be harder/impossible to convince him that the Order did it - especially with Draco knowing Pierce's allegiances and stuff.

update soooonn!! I love this story

Nott's still a tad creepy, but meh. Whatever, lol.

I dunno why Draco hasn't figured this darling little plan out yet, I mean. I know he knows Pansy better, but isn't that just what would make him suspect Pierce? Ginny could take Pansy any day of the week, what makes him think of her first?

I looovvved it!

As unofficial co-head of the unofficial Jonathon Pierce fanclub, I feel the need to inform you that he had better not actually be dead!!!!!!!!!!!! I WILL BE VERY UNHAPPY!!!!!!!!! As will Naomi. ...and Miran, the other unofificial co-head of our unofficial club xP

I'm so glad the two of them got it all sorted out so easily. Now Ginny knows Draco cares and Draco sort of realizes that Ginny cares and everything will be okay, between them at least.

BUTOMGTHISWASSOGOOD!!! I ADORE Ben, he's just so funny.
