This story is amazing so far, I particularly enjoy the angst that you've built. I also enjoy the sweet tender moments that Draco has. Looking forward to reading more! The Draco perspectives are much appreciated and add to the depth of storytelling.

Not Quite an Affair by Rosalie    (Reviews - 522)

“You mustn’t tell them, Rose! Harry knows but Lily and the boys… you can’t breathe a word…”

When Rose Weasley went to her favorite aunt for advice on how to handle loving someone her family disapproved of, she never dreamed the older woman would have been able to relate so well. In the comfortable safety of her kitchen, Ginevra Potter told her niece everything and swore her to secrecy. But months later, when Ginevra notices that her daughter, Lily, is spending time with Scorpius Malfoy, Ginny realizes too late that the truth can never really be locked away. Children question their parents and their own identities and everyone must confront the past.

So much angst, you're making me spill tears for Draco.
Well done :)

This chapter shed light on Draco's perspective and the tension is building up. Makes me really feel for poor Draco when Ginny changed her mind in the past. Great characterization! Can't wait for the confrontation with Harry!

Author's Response: Thank you! Hope you enjoy it when it gets here!

Poor Draco~ I really feel for him having to stand so strong against the Potter's residence. Looking forward to your next chapter!

Author's Response: Thank you!

Power and Responsibility by Januarybaby    (Reviews - 76)

The War against Voldemort was won eight years ago. Draco is a convicted prisoner in Azkaban. At 24, Ginny is the youngest and first female Minister for Magic. They appear to have nothing in common and no shared history. But things are rarely as they seem and secrets are everywhere.

I really enjoy the way you've crafted this storyline of how Ginny blocked out Draco and Draco's imprisonment is a harsh contrast to his previous lifestyle.

Definitely looking forward to updates!

Thank you for the ending. It completed the overall story, although I had hopes for them to run off and lead a life of fairytale - your story brought a sense of reality to the true hardships that divide Ginny and Draco.

I enjoyed your work! The interactions between Ginny and Draco, and especially Ginny herself will be cherished. No other plots have been carried out in such a fashion before. Thanks for the read~!

Malfoy In a Glass, Darkly by Anise    (Reviews - 129)

Many years ago, Draco Malfoy made a choice that led him very far away from Ginny Weasley, and the life that they might have shared. But not only is it hopeless to fight fate, its paths have a strange way of turning when you least expect them to, as a very unexpected person later learns...

Malfoy In a Glass Cover
Chapter FOURTEEN Quote of the Day:

“It can’t be worse than going to Romania. James is getting worse by the day. Lily doesn’t care about anything but her broom. And Mum and Dad—“ Albus breaks off.

Ginny. Scorpius can feel his face stiffen, and he has to conjure a coughing fit to cover it. Incredible how simply hearing of her, not even hearing her name, is enough to cause that stab of feeling in him. Just when he thinks that he’s over that sort of thing entirely—

“The point is, I’m so glad I can go with you,” sighs Albus.

Maybe I ought to wish that you couldn’t, thinks Scorpius. For your own good.

Please don't forget to update this gem of a story! The suspense past the holidays will be too much to handle! Poor Scorp left to hang in the dark here.
xoxo

Author's Response: Thanks so much, and I will! This is actually the first fic slated to get an update now that DDD is finished.

I really enjoyed this chapter! Amazing twist on a classic pairing. The drama and angst is fully felt. Can't wait for the next chapter!

Author's Response: Thanks! :) More soon, and definitely more D/G interaction coming up, too... ;)

Lovely chapter!
I completely anticipate the shocking moment Alb finds out the truth of Scorpius' obsessions. The contrasts between any girl Scorp can have versus the one he cannot is very powerful. The boy king was a very nice touch of detail. The chapter was laced with hints and humor that balance the moodiness of Draco's behavior and our confused hero. Keep writing :D

Author's Response: Thanks! Yep, there will come a time when everyone finds out, let's just say. And a plot bunny has been gnawing at me with hints about Edward VI, who really did look like a Malfoy, but it's just going to have get in the pen with the rest and take its turn. :P More soon, and much, much more D/G coming up! This chapter has contained a lot of buildup.

This chapter shows just how one sided Draco can be and preoccupied with just his perspective. In contrast, it's so clear why Scorp seems so pure and luckily has inherited his father's good looks!

Author's Response: Yes, Draco can definitely be that way, and the kind of life he's ended up having to date in MIaG has encouraged the worst parts of his personality in that way. And yes, Scorpius has the Malfoy family resemblance.... which just might turn out to be important in Chapter 9. You never know. ;)

Enjoying the development of Scorpuis as he's ready to admit his obsession. The dark Draco with a colder motive is very starkly compared to the purer of heart more gentle son. I hope Ginny enjoys the adoring Scorpius.

Lady Grey was Ginny's kin!

Author's Response: Thanks! :) Yes, Scorpius does have that ability to freely admit the truth to himself, and by this point in the fic, Draco has made the kind of choices in his life that have really closed off that ability for him. (But we don't yet know the reasons why, either.) I worked out an entire Malfoy family tree at one point. :) Edward VI, the last Tudor king, was a Malfoy ancestor. Lady Jane Grey was a Weasley ancestress. Since she was also a grandchild of Elizabeth Woodville, queen of England with yet *another* Edward, and Edward VI and Jane were also second cousins, let's just say that there's a lot of royalty in both Draco and Ginny's backgrounds. (This is all based on the kinds of things you can get into if you spend enough time on ancestry.com, btw.)

Updates :) I've really grown to champion the Scorp and Ginny storyline, well done. I don't think Draco deserves my scorn but I don't pity him for where his darker side has left him wandering.

I vote for a separate Ginny story to span more than a chapter of insight.

Author's Response: Thanks! Scorpius and Ginny certainly have some interaction coming up, although I don't know if it's going to be in the very next chapter or not (peeks ahead. Scorpius isn't telling.)Draco, oh, Draco... I really wonder what everybody will think once they know exactly what he's been up to. Anyway, I'm leaning towards a separate Ginny story too, but it won't be very long. I'm not really sure how much she's willing to tell from her POV.

Silence by serinah    (Reviews - 82)

My name is Ginevra Malfoy. I am a wife to the Minister's third in command, a Death Eater, and the coldest man I have ever known.


Who would have thought that when Harry killed Voldemort the purists would still come to power? Who would have thought that when the marriage law is enforced, a Malfoy would propose to a Weasley? And who in their right mind could have foreseen that Harry Potter would ask her to say yes? This is a tale about a failing marriage and a society spiralling towards civil war.
