Not Quite Fate by Hearts Cadence    (Reviews - 933)

*COMPLETE* Destiny knew better than to bring these two together. One man, determined to draw back an errant Malfoy, is not so wise, and Ginny soon finds herself caught up in events that are not quite Fate.

I think you definitely did the scene justice. I was actually waiting for them to kiss or something but it's better this way. It fits the story better. Congrats on another brilliant chapter :).

Aww!! YAAY for the fluff. Grrr on Ginny, even though I can see how she feels. Still, if she doesn't want him, I'll take him :P

Congrats on the straight A's (that's amazing!!)- I still get to suffer through my finals.

The epilogue was great! Really!

And congratulations on the promotion!!!! Will miss your stories though...*sigh* Ah well, will have to survive with the one-shots then :).

An invisible tattoo and a forbidden taboo will forever change the lives of two teenagers and the Wizarding World alike.



The world was not written in black and white, but in shades of gray.

Wow! That's really good. Sooo intense. And very, very orginal. Probably one of the best HBP-compliant D/G fics I've read. It's great!!

Please, please, PLEASE update soon. (Nope, I'm not desperate *walks away whistling*)

Red by goddess_of_ether    (Reviews - 128)

When Ginny Weasley made her fashion empire, she and Draco Malfoy broke up under less-than-favorable conditions (a flying cup of hot tea was involved). Now, he's worming his way back into her life and her business, and he's determined to win her heart. Ginny, however, is not risking it again after he broke it once before . . . But when Narcissa Malfoy gets personally involved and decides that a close working relationship for a charity benefit is the best way to get them back together, sparks fly, not all of them potentially lethal.

Love it! Gonna agree with everybody else: update fast!!

And really love the idea of Ginny being in the fashion business. Never come across that in fic before but it fits, somehow. :) update, update!

Author's Response: Well, someone as gorgeous as her has to go into a business that promotes that, don\'t you think? Well, that\'s always been my logic.

Keep it up! The latest chapter was so cute (in the good way) and really showed a different side to Draco. I love the image of him with ear flaps-it defintely made me smile.

Can't wait for the next chapter/installment. I also think the plot is great- very original :D.

Author's Response: hehe yeah i liked the ear flaps image too. im glad you liked it!! =)

Halo on a Pedestal by Rosy Denz    (Reviews - 12)

ONE-SHOT. Harry's sworn enemy, his arch-nemesis from Hogwarts, is the one that his girlfriend carries on with behind his back. There's a malicious sort of irony attached that is undeniably appealing.

Wow. Intense but really good. I really liked- I haven't read a fic like this in...well, ages- if it all.

So another chapter...please? :)

Author's Response: Thank you for the review. I\'m really glad you liked it. I tried writing a sequel to this in the morning, except I couldn\'t get the details straight and I became bit more than just frustrated. I doubt another chapter will be out soon, but it\'ll be up eventually.

Hope the stress lifts a bit and you can write again :).

Fleur de Lis by Lunaeyes    (Reviews - 350)

He showed her everything. What they didn’t get to the first day, after flying kites and riding boats and feeding swans, they did the next day, and the next. She realized, after spending seemingly endless weeks with him, that she didn’t want to go home, but go home she must.

Ten years have passed. They’ll always have Paris.

You updated!! And now you must update again! You can't leave it there!!

Clearly, I enjoyed this chapter. You really captured a side of Draco that one can only imagine: crippling self-doubt. Amazing!!

Awww...poor Draco! :( But yay for a great chapter and Prague! I live there (here?) actually so if you ever have any questions, I'd be glad to help out with logistics and such.

Author's Response: Yes, I\'m very sad for him as well. You do! That\'s incredible. I visited over the summer, which is why I chose the city, but I may certainly take you up on the offer.

Reviewer: Mars Signed
Date: Oct 21, 2007 Title: Chapter 1: Holiday From Reality

It's great :) I really like it.

Draco's wife leaving him was/is a nice touch.

Author's Response: Thanks! I\'m glad. I basically just decided that when Ron and Harry saw them on the platform that they hadn\'t heard the two were divorced...poor ignorant boys.

Date: Nov 05, 2007 Title: Chapter 4: She Walked Into Mine

Aahhh cliffhanger!! Poor Ginny - well, poor Draco though I suppose that news will sober him up pretty quick!

Congrats on another great chapter :)

Author's Response: Yes, it was a cliffhanger. I apologize. Everyone\'s pretty low, I must say. Stick around! Thanks for the review!

YAAAAAAY!!!!! Thank God she went back to Prague!!

Nice choice using the Charles Bridge. I'll be thinking of Draco and Ginny on those carriages and at the clock the next time I'm in town. Downtown Prague will never be the same again :P.

As always, a great chapter. And a great way to start the morning :)

Author's Response: Thanks so much for the review! I\'m glad you enjoyed the chapter, considering you live there. My beta and I combined what we knew from our visits to Prague. The only picture of myself I\'ve ever liked is of me in one of those carriages. Thanks again for reading and reviewing.

Wow...a very intense but great chapter! As always! How do you find the time to write so much and so well??!? Well, however you do it, keep it up because I love the story and hope you update soon!!

Author's Response: Ah, I love this review. It is so thoughtful. I write when I can, it tends to calm me, and my beta edits when she can, although we are both extraordinarily busy. It was intense, and I\'m glad you like it. Trouble\'s brewing for our happy couple...

Date: Dec 02, 2007 Title: Chapter 8: The Real Goodbye

Wow. Talk about intense. Another great chapter, really :). Poor Draco, though...hope James and Albus like him!

Author's Response: Thanks very much for the kind review. It is very hard for Draco, and his introduction to the Potter boys will come in a few chapters. :)

Date: Dec 10, 2007 Title: Chapter 9: Out of the Air

Awww, yay :). Glad they get along - great bonding technique, by the way. I should try that with people I don't like on day...

Anyway, yay for another great chapter :D.

Author's Response: Thanks. That\'s the only way I could picture Scorpius gaining Lily\'s respect. By matching her in a prank way. Thanks for another review!

One word: WOW.

(I know - my reviews are rather redundant but I just love this story and that's really all there is to say!)

Yay! I was hoping you'd update sometime this week. A great chapter, as always, and can't wait for the next update.

I have to say, I hope James and Albus are nice to Lily, at least. How could anyone NOT like her?

Author's Response: Thanks so much for another kind review. Next update should be up much faster, and the visit with the boys is also coming up. :)

Author's Response: Oh, thanks. I can always rely on you for a nice review. :) The next chapter will be up soon, and will probably be a good deal longer, so smiles all around. Right? :)

Date: Feb 14, 2008 Title: Chapter 14: Visions of Red

I'm speechless - or, rather, wordless. As always: brilliant. I love the way you described this particular chapter from Draco's point of view. A great choice. Keep it up :)

And what could Ginny possibly have? ;)

Author's Response: Thanks for such a touching review. And Ginny, well, she\'s definitely suffering from something. :)

Reviewer: Mars Signed
Date: Feb 24, 2008 Title: Chapter 15: Going Unsaid

Wow. Good idea, using "Sectumsempra" and having James cast it; talk about a blast from the past!

As always: love it and can't wait for the next one! :)

Author's Response: No, no, my friend. NOT Sectusempra. Both boys were using relatively harmless spells, but cast at the same time, and then a little accident occurred. Draco is merely comparing it to his experience with Harry. And thanks for yet another review, I\'m so glad you liked the chapter!
