Student. Idler. Aspiring writer.

The wonderful world of Harry Potter has been my constant companion and comfort blanket for the last decade. As much as I love the series and the epilogue...I sail the good ship Draco/Ginny. I also love Draco/Ginny/Blaise, Blaise/Ginny and Blaise/Luna. Generally I have mad love for my fave snakes but I DO NOT like Hermione/Snape. I think its just gross. I love them both, just not together. Lets stick to the holy union of Fire and Ice.

The plot bunnies have attacked! Run for cover! Save yourselves!!!


Long Live D/G...because they're just better

Oh, this is so bitter-sweet. I love the tone and atmosphere of this. Melancholy. That's the word that describes this best. Beautiful but sad. Thanks for sharing this.

dance for me by LadyEndymion    (Reviews - 6)

Running off to the Continent had seemed romantic in the misery of Post-War London. Too bad it didn’t last. That was 5 years ago. Ginny gets the reunion she’s never really wanted in the most awkward way. Draco/Ginny. Blaise/Luna.

It hit me right in the feels. It reminded me very much of JessicaKMalfoy's story Paper Hearts from a DG FIc Exchange from some years past. It brought on the same feels. A lovely story with no happy ending that just gets you right in the gut. Beautiful tearjerker. It was easy to read the first time because I always read your stories. This one should have come with some tissues.

Author's Response: I really appreciate the compliment! Jessica K Malfoy is an amazing writer. I looove happy endings, and I write my fair share of fluff, but sometimes a girl's just gotta torture her readers with the angst, you know? ;D I know what you mean about the feels though, because I didn't intend for Draco to be dead in this. So when I realized he had to be, I was very sad about it. I just love writing this sort of tortured Draco, though (even though in this story he has come to terms with his trauma and death and no longer angsts over it), because I really do think he would be haunted by his experiences during the war. I think that's a fascinating Draco to write about, because that's where I can develop the redemption JKR left out of the books. As sad as this was, I'm really glad you enjoyed the story and that it provoked some emotion out of you. That's all an author can ask for! :)

This was so beautifully written, so sad. Brought me to actual tears. I can't promise I'll ever read it again but it was great the first time, made me feel all the feels. Excellent story!

Author's Response: I can't blame you if you never read it again, but I thank you for reading it the first time! n_n

I started reading this before we became friends and then realised you wrote it. This is filled with so many feelings. I had to read it over the course of many days just to handle it. I'm not usually a fan of infidelity but I understand the feelings here. I kept dipping between, 'they're alive' and 'they're dead' a lot but I had to believe you wouldn't drag me through all that emotional turmoil just to kill them. Good story. Thanks for sharing and I'm glad you're a D/G fan like me! :D

Author's Response: Aww, honey! Thank you very much for your kind, kind words. You made my day with your review to this story of mine. <333 I really like Draco/Ginny, but I am a huge fan of canon and I always try to write stuff that could have happened after the books - or as missing scenes. I am also a fan of Lily, so I had to include her in my story somehow. He he! I'm not that evil, I promise! I love to write about strong emotions, but I really like happy endings, too. Thank you again, you're lovely and you made me SO happy. <3 xxx

Eleven Blocks by idreamofdraco    (Reviews - 8)

Draco's just been fired from his job, confirming, once and for all, that his attempts to turn his reputation around have been futile. Luckily, someone is waiting for him at home, and her opinion of him is all that matters.

This was sweet and lovely. I loved how settled and comfortable Draco and Ginny were even though Draco was insecure with his place in life. I love that his worth was realised in the end. I really love the idea of calling Justin Jeff. That made me giggle...such a Malfoy thing to do.

Beautiful story. Thanks for sharing.

This is lovely. I really liked the way she disarmed him with one smile. I enjoyed this story but I always enjoy your stories. That said, who is the model in your banner playing Ginny? She's very pretty.

Author's Response: I found the photo on Pinterest. It's by Nina Masic, and I *think* the subject is Nejla Hadzic (I had to do some Googling, and she's tagged in the photo on Nina's Facebook). :) I'm so glad you enjoyed the story! Thank you for reading. n_n

Devil's Water by dykeadellic    (Reviews - 22)

Ginny paced the floor of her flat, venting out loud to no one. That morning, as she had sat in the locker room snorting cocaine, she had been caught by Gwenog Jones, her captain. An explosive argument had ensued, and Ginny was given an ultimatum-- either take six months to get clean and go to daily twelve step meetings, or she would be booted off the team for good.

OR

The one where Ginny Weasley is a recovering addict, Draco Malfoy is her sponsor, and Neville Longbottom is best friends with everyone.

Also, I'm very proud of you and happy for you. You're a very strong person and I know you will continue to fight these battles, one day at a time.

I'm mad that she used the very next day but I get that she has to really realize she's an addict before she can truly begin to heal.

Lovely chapter. Waiting patiently for the next one.

I didn't realise you had updated this story. At first, I thought Pansy was the girlfriend then you wrote Astoria instead. I like that you added some shock value for Ginny and I hope you didn't have a similar experience. *hugs and love*

Author's Response: Close, very, very close. But we ain't gotta live like that no more (as we say in the program).

Wilfully by Anayashe New!   (Reviews - 148)

For the life of her, Ginny Weasley did not know how this had happened. She could have blamed the two glasses of expensive champagne, or considered the possibility of being put under the Imperius Curse, but she knew deep down that that was not the case. Somehow, she had knowingly and wilfully ended up here. Shit.

That was long and lovely and entertaining and haunting. I loved the interactions between Draco and Luna, Neville and Muriel at the wedding. Hilarious! I still think Draco is being an idiot for not telling someone on the "right" side about Dolohov. That way he can stay in the clear even if it's not a complete snitch situation. At least it would ensure that he and his mother are safe if things should go awry.

Author's Response: Thank you so much for the review! I think Draco is scared of losing Ginny's trust; she's only just started trusting him after the 'active Dark Mark' fiasco. But let's see what happens!

Reviewer: Nutmeg44 Signed

This is definitely one of the stories that I look forward to the most. Loving every bit of it. I think everyone was true to form in this chapter, even if it made things a bit worse before it can get better. Ron really needs to practise keeping his mouth shut, or at least know time and place reading the room.

Author's Response: Thank you so much! :D Yes well, I don't see Ron 'holding back' anything when it comes to Draco. Can't really blame him, to be honest, what with all their ugly history. But he also doesn't see that Draco has changed. Hmm, maybe I should do something about that... or not! ;)

I haven't left a review in a while but I have been assiduously following the story. I love the dark mark mystery that is unfolding. I feel like Draco is being dumb by not telling Blaise or Ginny. He should at least share his concerns that way if anything goes south he has someone in the know who can search for him.

Author's Response: Hey! I'm glad to know that you're liking the story. I believe Draco is being cautious, whether that is dumb or not... well, we'll find out. Thank you for the review! :)

Delicious beginning. That study scene harkens back to Kiera Knightly and James McAvoy in the library in Atonement...and I don't hate it.

*fans self*

Author's Response: OMG! I hadn't thought of the Atonement scene while writing this, but looking back I can see the similarities. I don't hate it too! Lol Thank you for the review. I hope you'll like the rest of the story as well!

Author's Response: It did get dark, and unexpectedly so. I hadn't planned on taking the story there just yet, but the characters just... wanted to act like this. Next chapter is up, hope you'll like it! :) Thank you for the review.

Love Ginny's little bit of manipulation in the beginning. Too bad Draco seems to be a daredevil who loves having these near-death experiences. I guess we'll need to get our blacks ready to mourn his untimely demise...again. He never learns.

Also, could I request steamy sexy times in every chapter? Just because...y'know... it's great.

Author's Response: Well, prepare away then, because Ginny is on a Malfoy hunt! As for the steamy sexy times, well there won't be any in the next chapter (which is up now, by the way) due to story reasons, but I am sure you'll enjoy what comes after that... *wink wink* Thank you for your review! :)

Now You See Me by Ludi    (Reviews - 14)


“I can think of ways to make this farce a little more interesting for all of us.” Ginny said with a note of defiance in her voice.

Malfoy, for his part, raised an eyebrow, the only sign that could be interpreted as curiosity - and maybe as a bit of a challenge. “One would think that you aren’t in a position to do anything, Weasley."

“You would be surprised." Ginny smiled at him. It was a cat-like smile that she hoped he would recognize it for what it was - a warning. She was Ginny Weasley and no one would take advantage of her, whatever her physical condition was. "Would you like to dance?"

Then she offered her hand to him in a silent invitation.

It was as if time itself had stopped.
