Hold On by Pipperstorms    (Reviews - 7)

I think I’m dying. I can feel the way my chest rises, drawing in air, shuddering in pain. I’ve never felt like this before, which isn’t surprising, as I’ve never died before.

I haven't reviewed in so long! Blame exams. u_u Blergh.

This story was beautiful. I loved your take on Charlie- he was always my favorite of the male Weasley's.

Draco's desperation came through so nicely here, so well done. I really sympathized with him, and he wasn't even the narrator.

I also loved Ginny's confusion at the beginning. Her curiosity and suppositions were really nice to read. :)

-Jayde.

Author's Response: Than you :) And I hear you about exams yuck. I had fun writing something from Ginny's POV for a change.

To Be a God by Pipperstorms    (Reviews - 20)

I come here, before you, the Order of the Phoenix, not to beg forgiveness, as many of you think I should. But rather, I come with a warning: they know where you are and what you intend to do. They have made their mission to stop you, to kill you, and to rule the world as they see fit. I see you now, murmuring about yourselves, presumably asking if I, with a Dark Mark burned into my arm, can be trusted. If I were you, I doubt I would trust me either.

That was so... Draco. It was fantastic. You captured his personality so perfectly, I thought. And the quote you used was done so very well, and added great meaning to it.

-Jayde. :)

Author's Response: Thank you very much! I had a lot of fun trying to find his voice here, it was a great experience! Thanks for your review!

Faces in the Mirror by Pipperstorms    (Reviews - 11)

Draco is trying his hardest to deal with the mistakes he has made. They weigh down heavily upon him until one night in the Room of Requirement a magic mirror shows him everything he wants and everything he needs.

Your first D/G? It's really good!
Is it sad that your description of Draco reminds me of a drugged up starving artist. I like it. ;P
You convey Draco's confusion really well and I love how you included the Mirror of Erised so cleverly. :)

-Jayde

Author's Response: I'll never understand why the challenge that was used for this story screamed DRACO GINNY at me so loudly - but it did - and an addiction was born :) Thank you for this, as well as all your other reviews, it makes me sad that this is the last review I had waiting for me :-P I always love seeing more in the "unanswered section" Thanks again!!

This one ended a little happier than your other ones, though it was still based on something incredibly sad.
I've never heard the song that you based this on, but I'm tempted to go look for it now. *sighs and looks at clock* Maybe tomorrow. :P
I love how you characterize everyone. Lucius seemed like such a powerful character, even though he wasn't physically present.

-Jayde.

Author's Response: Thank you! This was during my phase where I loathed Lucius, and liked listening to Panic! At the Disco :-P Thanks for your review!

What Potter Doesn't Know by Pipperstorms    (Reviews - 38)

Potter is an idiot. He sits there, flirting, horribly, I might add, and still he gets no where. That’s because he doesn’t know the rules, wouldn’t know them even if they bit him. Fortunately, I know the rules. Not that it matters, the rules don’t apply to me. I’m not arrogant; I’m right. It isn’t being cocky if it’s true. When he wouldn’t pay her any attention, she went and found someone who would. Lucky girl, she caught the eye of the only man in this school who knew how to worship her properly.

Indescribable. A little part of me hopes that there are other pieces like this buried somewhere in your list of stories. Well, I'll find out, won't I?
Fantastic work.

Author's Response: So far - this is my only smutty goodness story, but I do have others that are on the fluffy side of life! I hope you enjoy those as well!

Choice by Pipperstorms    (Reviews - 11)

All his life he has acted as if he had all the choices in the world, as if time itself asked him before it dared to move. But the truth is he has rarely ever made a single decision. His life has been preplanned since the moment of his conception. From the very day Draco was born, his freedom was striped from him, and his life laid out like a road map before his eager silver, eyes: something to be studied, learned, and excepted as truth.

Again, fantastic work.
So, the Death Eaters managed to use some sort of mind connection to get to him? That's how it seems. Killing him without (almost) any visible marks.
I can almost imagine Ginny waking up after, only to realize that Draco was gone. Or maybe she was still awake, and noticed right away. Oh my, you're making me think. ;P
Can't wait to read more. Which will probably just be a minutes until I continue down the list.

-Jayde.

Author's Response: Eh something like that ;) I wanted people to have to wonder at which was reality, and which was the "dream." Thank for your review!!

Dirty Little Secret by Pipperstorms    (Reviews - 40)

That was amazing. Your imagery is perfect. I could see the scene in front of me as I read.
You mentioned that people say you need to eat more chocolate and hug some puppies? Well, maybe you should hold off on that for a bit, because the sad stories- especially yours, it seems, are my absolute favorite to read. ;P

Author's Response: Thank you! I haven't finished anything in a long while - But i'm working on something sad and horrible now :)

That was so sad, but beautiful at the same time. The ending was fantastic, Ginny emptying the gun's shells; really meaningful.
I love their obliviousness of what the gun is, though it is the general knowledge of most of the Wizarding World. A wand that only performs one spell.
Well done, again. You'll be sick of my reviews soon. ;)

Author's Response: Thank you very much :) I had a great prompt o work with for this one - and I must say - I never grow tired of reviews from anyone ;)

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.

Your writing is really strong, and it's a wonderful first chapter.  I love the way you characterized Ginny, and also the excuse for having the boys out of the house. :p

Author's Response: I'm so glad you like it enough to not stop reading ;) Hopefully you continue to like the rest! Let me know ;)

Love by Pipperstorms    (Reviews - 20)

Here’s the thing about love; no one ever tells you the truth. They don’t want to ruin whatever childhood fantasies you’re going to concoct up in that ‘pretty little head of yours.’ No, no, see, they’re all much more sadistic then that. They would rather you find out later that all the dreaming you did was for nothing. Then that way, you can be just like them, and suffer.

How did I never read any of your stories before today? They're fantastic!
I really love the opening paragraph. It's true too. While little kids are watching Disney movies and waiting for their happily ever after, people are being rejected by the ones they love.
I kind of wonder why Harry decided to break off the wedding, but I think Ginny's reaction suited her well. Having gotten past her hero worship of Harry, but not realizing it until he ends the relationship anyways.
Harry shrinking in comparison to Draco was great too.

Of Draco, Ginny, and the Excessively Extensive List of Salaciously Sexual Euphemisms by Anise    (Reviews - 64)

Either Dumbledore’s assignment of Draco and Ginny as Potions study partners was perfectly innocent, or it’s all part of Voldemort’s cunning plan to spread nastiness, evil, and complete and utter un-niceness over all of Hogwarts by getting his sinister junior Death Eater heir-to-darkness a shagging partner to perk up the apocalypse to come. Ron is convinced it’s the latter, especially once he learns the shocking truth about Ginny’s cherry pie, Draco’s remarkably long, hard stick, and the Undershorts of Evil. This fic is COMPLETE!

The Rose by Maleficent    (Reviews - 27)

"The next morning she awoke to a red rose laid carefully on the pillow beside her. Once a sign of his love, now the ruby petals stood only as a symbol of his betrayal."

Just in time for Halloween, a horror story examining the ways betrayal and repressed pain can warp and twist the heart and mind. Not a story for the light of heart.

Reviewer: FiveOhFirst Signed
Date: Feb 27, 2010 Title: Chapter 1: I: Defiance is beautiful

I really like your introduction.  It sets the mood for the chapter really nicely. ^_^
 
‘"Finite Incantatem," she murmured, watching the green light disappear and leave her in darkness once more.’—Did you mean ‘leaving her in darkness once more?  That word sounded a little funny to me.
 
Your imagery involving the green light is astounding.  And I especially adore this sentence: ‘Instead, that green light turned her shaking, white hands into alien limbs: pale bones dipped in viridian.’
 
I love how many different characters you’ve included so far; Seamus and Adrian aren’t usually characters that would be included, but I’m glad that you have.
 
The password is very original, ahahah.
 
I love your description of the war-torn Golden Trio.  Not something that you usually see, and it’s very nice to see a story where they aren’t quite so invincible.
 
Fred was very interesting.  I like that you didn’t just tell us outright that he was blind.  It’s a little sad that they’re stuck working for the Death Eaters, but still very inventive on your part.
 
Great start and I can’t wait to read more.
-Jayde. ^_~

Author's Response: You know, I stared at your username going, WOW THAT NAME IS FAMILIAR until I remembered who it was? Haha. And apologies in advance: FIA doesn't allow review-replies to have any sort of paragraph breaks in them, so this will be a huge chunk of response. That particular confusing line does not sound confusing to me, so you'll just have to be stuck with it because I'm definitely not going to go back and try to change it on FIA because that is next to impossible. Viridian is also my favorite color name. Well, not THE favorite: vermilion and carmine are close seconds and thirds. There is going to be a wide array of characters included, so I really hope I don't overload the story by including so many. Hopefully I'll just be able to focus on a few a chapter and that way keep it manageable. I've always sort of not-liked the Golden Trio, but in this story I've got a bit of pity and grudging respect for them. I'm not entirely sure where I'm going to take Fred and George, mainly because I haven't thought about them too much, but they'll probably/most-likely make it back in and be important. I hope you liked the second chapter (which you did, because you already reviewed it)! *hugs!*
