I believe in the intensity of this relationship. I'm not a bit fan of 'redeemed' Draco as I like him to be rude and arrogant and demanding. Ginny though knows enough to stand up to him and call him on the carpet when it counts.

I tend to read my favorite stories over and over though I don't often write as much as I would like though I do write when inspired by things. I do a lot of RPing of both Draco and Ginny though have never played against someone - I will play both characters but rarely put them together outside of fics.

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!

Bwahahahah!!  This was just brilliant!  I do so love how Ginny gets into these situations and how her gumption gets her through.  Though I can't want to see what Draco does to her through all of this!


Author's Response: Myn says: Not as much as he\'d like to, at least for a good long while.
Ves says: Ah yes...but isn\'t there a joy in the antici.....pation?

I really love the very faithful characterization of Narcissa as I feel like she really is who she is from the books while working in a AU fic. I also like the subtle hints of Draco wanting Ginny. It's nice to see a Draco and Ginny fic where it is not so blatant but yet makes you lust for more.

Excellent fic and certainly glad to see this.

Author's Response:
Myn says: It\'s a fine line between AU and OOC, and I\'m glad to hear we\'re walking on the right side of it. :D And I\'m all in favor of lusting.

Ves says: Certainly the right sort of aura for this fic. And we are having a grand time writing Narcissa. Glad our vision of her is working for you.

You know the rhyme... first comes love, then comes marriage... Except it doesn't quite work out that way for Draco & Ginny.

Brilliant! Evil!Lucius and Draco redeemed but yet not. And I really thought you had the chemistry spot on and I really liked how you made things really work between them without making them suddenly and weirdly fall in love. Brilliant work - keep up the good work!

Dear Gods above where is the rest?!  I shall not threaten your life but I shall beg unconditionally and offer you my first born (he's 3 and asks endless questions) for more to read.  Brilliant characterization of Draco and Ginny and I think the introduction and statements of how Tom used Ginny were brilliantly done.  It was clear and a great way to describe what happened with being specific as well as being vague enough to let your reader fill in the more heinous details.  And dear Gods... I love your Snape.  He's fabulous and I so love Fetcher and Draco's relationship with his mother...

 

Okay - so there's nothing I don't like.  Please write more!  It's brilliant!

Author's Response:

Thank you for your enthusiasm.  Is that spelled correctly? Anywho, as tempting as the offer is, you can keep your three-year-old.  Been there, done that, twice, ain\'t going back.  I had a great time with Draco and Ginny in Chapter 9.  I thought it was best to let them get it all out of their systems so that we can move on to the more important stuff.

Snogging!

Severus is a pure pleasure to write.  He and I think alike, both of us being teachers.  I feel as if I am channeling our dear Potions Master at times.

The really hard part has been keeping Draco snarky while allowing him to express his feelings for Ginny.  Let me know if he gets too soft.  I will pour some more starch into his pants.

Ginny discovers Draco has a fetish and she is disturbingly willing to cater to his wants.

*applauds*  Exceedingly brilliant - a very good plot mixed in with some very scintillating sex.  Bravo!

Rock and Roll Queen by Ada Achlys    (Reviews - 74)

Some light dusting, heavy spying, inappropriate sniffing, and . . . a rock ballad? Things are going to get very weird when Ginny and Hermione, super spies extraordinaire, take jobs as maids at Malfoy Manor!

MORE!!!  *claps wildly*  I do so love a snarking Draco who's out to get it all for himself.  Brilliant job making him 'good' but in a deliciously evil Bad Boy way that we all want to have him and take him to bed!  And yay for Ginny!!  Keep it up!

Ginny Weasley is bound by a blood curse to marry Draco Malfoy and to live with him a year and a day.  What happens when she finds him to be...not exactly the man she thought he was?  Love, perhaps?
