Oh, I'm glad someone's being nice to Ginny. I really like your Narcissa! Waiting for more!

Author's Response: Yup, Ginny needs someone to be nice to her. I'm glad you're enjoying the story :)

Is it Bella?
Anyway, Iwas glad to see you updated! I really enjoyed the chapter and your Draco was great.He would just go to try and find out about what happened to Snape without telling Ginny anything.

Author's Response: Thanks so much for reviewing! Also, you guess is good :) but obviously, you will still have to wait ;) ... I'm really glad you enjoyed my Draco. I can totally see him as this sort of intense, completely focused person, and for a while now, Ginny has been just an object to him...for NOW, that is.. :)

What an interesting story! I wonder why Scorpius wants to learn about the final battle from Ginny. Are there things his daddy isn't telling him? Also he seems to like Ginny. I'm intrigued to see where this is going.

Author's Response: Scorpius is going to be very interesting and hopefully be fun for you to read about. And though he likes Ginny, it's not anything sexual or anything (for some reason I seem to get questions about them ending up together). It's more of him looking for a mother-figure. Thanks for the review!

Yay, yay, yay, yay, yay!!!!!!

Anise is back!!!!!!!
(Does a happy tribal dance).

Need I say more?

Author's Response: I want to see the tribal dance. :) Anyway, thank you!! Yes, I realized that the sequel just HAD to be written... Ginny wouldn't stop telling me what happened, and-- that van with the men with straitjackets is STILL THERE! Have to run. More later. :)

O.K., this guide has dramatically increased the number of questionsI have unresolved. Shall I start with the first 200? Kidding.

Some random thoughts though:

1.This elusive room. It seems to pop in different places, so does it also pop in different times too? It allways has the same interior.

2. Are we going to see George/ Hermione at some later point? Does it mean she'll turn to being normal?

3. Is Ginny going to have some working relationship with Draco before it becomes romantic? I suppose he really is going to be The Junior Undersecretary of Culture. Also it looks from that cookiechapter (37) that he'll keep his promise to get her to the Regency Ball.

4. You know, that cookie where it looks loke Ginny is Marie,in chapter 37, somehow I get the feeling something is off there. Perhaps I'm still trying to deny them being the same person, despite numerous evidence.You will laugh,but it looked like some kind of roleplay to me. (Maybe something like they did in MMoM where Draco created some scene where he really was 16 tofigure out wether he was going to force himself on Ginny if she was brought to him then.)

5. And now for another crazy idea: There are TWO MARIE- one is the realone and the other is Ginny posing as her - seeing as there are time inconsistinsies. O.k., that was mostly a joke -one Marie is quite enough!

Anyway,I'm eagerly waiting for chapter 41 and the rest!

Author's Response: Now I'm going to wonder what the other 293 questions were. ;) Anyway...

1.) Very good question. The room did appear to Draco when he was five years old and looking for Teddy, and he was able to find it occasionally as a child, although he never remembered those times as anything except vague dreams. (Pictures cute five-year-old Draco.:) So it definitely could appear about 16 years ago from the current present time of the fic, and yes, it always does look the same.

2.) It depends on what happens with them. I only write what the characters tell me, and-- (they're coming with those butterfly nets-- never mind.) Hermione is pretty bad at this point, but I don't think that she's as bad as Harry.She felt betrayed by Ron (and to be fair, he never tried to reach out to her as a friend after the breakup), and then she sort of got under Harry's spell (not literally.) But she *could* change, and I don't think that DDD's Harry is really at a point where he can do that anymore.

3.) Can't answer that one. ;) But yes, he gets her to the ball.

4.) Or that one. But I will say that the situation in the cookie you're talking about is a lot more complicated than it seems to be. We don't know why Ginny is there, what led up to her choosing to do it, what happens afterwards (besides a lot of NC-17ness-- I'll say that!), or... a lot else. ;) But it will all make sense.

Well, it looks like it's going to be a really fun story! And I don't remember reading something with similar plot - Draco the writer and Ginny as a Muse. So it's quite original and refreshing. I hope you used them role-playing Draco's characters as was suggested in the prompt. IT should be so fun!

Author's Response: Thank you, though I can't take credit for the originality ;) I hope you enjoy the rest!

I'm so happy you updated this!

I can't wait for what's going to happen next.

And draco never answered why he was eeping tubs on Ginny!

And i'm looking forward to Blaise's reaction when he finds out Ginny was spending time with Draco.

Love the story!

Oh, what a chapter!

I really hope everything works out for Draco and Ginny in the end.

You know, transitional chapters are often boring and nothing much happens in them, but this chapter is absolutely great!! There was an amazing portrayal of Ginny's emotional state and a glimpse into Draco's as well. I hope they work it out eventually and get Will back (and have a mutual child too...)

Bringing Harry at this point was unexpected and interesting. And he has a daughter?

I need more soon!!

I think the distinct feature of this story is it's vagueness. The lines between dreams or visions and reality are blurred, many things are left unsaid, Draco and Ginny frequently cut their words midsentence.

I'm still unsure as to why Scorpius is infatuated with Ginny. is it because he saw his father being different, human around her?

What will happen to his friendship with Albus as a result of this infatuation?

I like Alec, but then I've always liked Blaise too. He ties up with Sirius in 2 place for pairing with Ginny in my head.

Author's Response: Thanks! I agree-- at this point, there's something vague about this fic, and it's really because Scorpius is not facing reality in a lot of ways. This WILL change, though. ;) I think you're on to something with Scorpius seeing his father acting so differently around Ginny-- he can't help but notice and remember her because of that. But there's more to it, too. Some of it is just whatever indefinable thing it is that makes one person so attractive to another, and some... well, I think it becomes clearer as time goes on. And Sirius/Ginny! I had an entire Siri/Ginny fic that never really quite saw the light of day. ;)

All, right, I have to add some thoughts. I've been pondering Draco-Ginny relationship during the period after they both got married. It looks as if they had none (as Ginny refused his offer), but some facts indicate that something was going on. Like when Scorpius saw them at the manor when he was little. Obviously they were discussing something serious. Also, all this thing around Lily - Ginny and Harry mention her several times while assumingly talking about Draco (Harry accuses her that she can't forget him) and Draco was worried that Scorpius is interested in Lily and was relieved that he is not and there's the fact that Scorpius does feel more in a brotherly way towards Lily. Could she be an accidental Draco-Ginny child?

Author's Response: I can't EVEN answer the question about Lily. ;) Some good guesses, though.

Oh, wow! The conversation between Scorpius and Draco left me speechless. it was so well done. Draco is obviously doing some serious thinking.

scorpius's attraction to Ginny is so cute. It reminds me of Draco in your other stories only without the darkness.

And the dreams he is having, are they just dreams or visions?

Thank you for the awesome reading!

Author's Response: Thanks! :) Yes, the wheels are definitely turning in Draco's head, and much plotting is happening. In Chapter 3, we'll find out much more about how that affects others. Scorpius's feelings about Ginny at this point are very, very vague and unspecific, which is as it should be-- the kid's still a couple of days away from his fifteenth birthday, and there's that no-tackiness clause! ;) His dreams are important. All I will say now is that none of them are even close to being exact visions of anything. More soon...
