I'm fairly sarcastic and love love/hate relationships in stories. I'm an illustration major and plan on getting my masters in Library science.

The Lush Life by Vesanmyn    (Reviews - 657)

A Vesica/Mynuet Collaboration. If Ginny had even the slightest inkling of what the day would bring, she probably would have called in sick. A disastrous press conference proved to be no match for the spin doctoring talents of Lush's chief and Ginny finds herself catapulted from being a lowly intern to the very eye of the storm, living a double life as a careerwitch and glamorous front woman for a racy new line. Throw in a few A-list events, a few dozen crises, an endless promotional tour with her new co-worker and the last person she wanted to spend time with, and a mystery waiting back home that neither of them may be able to solve….Every day's an adventure when you're living the Lush Life!

I love this fic. It's so refreshing to have something where it isn't love at first sight, or only two chapters of sexual tension before they declare their undying love (which is good because those types are meant for break ups-look at Romeo and Juliet-they had like the worsst break ever). Love it, continue it, and I will keep sending you words of love.

Author's Response: Ves says: OMG! YOU GET IT!! *HUGS YOU* Ahem, sorry for the CAPS abuse there. 9 out of 10 reviewers are all “When do they hook up?’ and I am running out of ways to say “When they are damn well good and ready, that’s when” politely. Many thanks for the encouragement and comfort that at least one person cares about seeing the processes and not just the results of these two getting together.
Myn says: They gotta
earn that happy ending, by crikey.

I love the fact Draco's girlfriend is embarrassed about Carissa. He's usually so confident but seeing him being all flustered is just adorable. I sit waiting the next chapter patiently.

Author's Response: Ves says: We can’t resist throwing Draco a little off balance – he’s so cute when he’s a little flustered.
Myn says: Although, wait, what girlfriend?

Though are darling platinum headed prat didn't make an appearance I did like this chapter. It gave some good exposition and lent us a bit of insight into how the business side of things are going to work for our dear Ginny. I eagerly await the next chapter (and I swear I will not threaten our beloved authors without due cause.) Great job as always.

Author's Response: Ves and Myn Say: This is shaping up to be a larger, more plot driven fic than just “Draco and Ginny flirt and hook up” – which we think is a good thing, but it does lead to chapters that drive the plot forward but don’t always bring our main characters closer together. Glad you are enjoying!

Not Quite Fate by Hearts Cadence    (Reviews - 933)

*COMPLETE* Destiny knew better than to bring these two together. One man, determined to draw back an errant Malfoy, is not so wise, and Ginny soon finds herself caught up in events that are not quite Fate.

Bravo! I adore this story, I truly do. You write a very believable Draco and the dynamic between him and Ginny is impeccably done. I wait patiently for the next chapter.

I am in awe. This was an amazing chapter and this is an amazing fic. You have created a wonderful tapestry of words, weaving a story together that not only is post HBP, but also very believable. I eagerly await the next chapter. Bravo.

Hmmm, someone more sneaky and manipulative than Pierce? Could Naomi be a spy? I am thoroughly intrigued and can't wait to find out. Though there was no D/G interaction (or action) I still liked this chapter. You are weaving a tapestry of words and I can't wait to see what happens next.

I just adore this story, it's just so unbelievably in character and could be canon. Even though Ginny and Draco haven't kissed yet the story is still intriguing and I don't mind the wait for romance at all. I love the fact Ginny is so conflicted over Harry and Draco and that Draco is completely falling for her and he is so annoyed about it. I eagerly await the next chapter.

I adore Pierce. A perverse part of me wants him to never show his colors; I just have this image in my head of him at the final battle, sitting on the sidelines with a soda and popcorn, just watching and waiting to see who wins so he can swoop in and aid their cause. The funny thing I find is that he is manipulating Draco and Ginny by giving good advice, ironic is it not?

Squeeeeee! Finally some kissage even if Ginny did go all Buffy there at the end. I loved this chapter, might be my favorite thus far. Congratulations on the reporter gig and can't wait for the next chapter.

Oedipus by Irene    (Reviews - 91)

Everyone makes mistakes. Some people are just better at escaping the consequences- through three centuries at least.

Long live the king.

This fic has me highly intrigued, despite I have seen similar plotlines before. Draco is still Draco, a jerk and of course he' using his survival instincts, but he is still human. I cannot wait to see more.

A Dragon's Life by Sunfire    (Reviews - 105)

To escape the pain and loss of war, Ginny goes somewhere no one will find her, only to find she isn’t the only one seeking such anonymous solace.

When I first read the summary of this particular fic, back when you had first posted it, I glazed over it, not intrigued at all. Tonight I decided to click and see, compelled to give this fic a chance and I am glad I did. I find the concept interesting and how you brought Ginny and Draco into interaction was well executed. I await the next chapter eagerly.

I loved it; exactly what I needed after a few hours of studying world religions.
