Reviews by die Loreley

Over Time: First Friends by Mynuet    (Reviews - 113)

In a series of vignettes spanning ten years, Draco and Ginny form an enduring friendship, which eventually leads to more. Drugged confessions, Playstation abuse, weddings, Christmas shopping, blind dates, stripteases, an exploding wand, and R/Hr on the side. Each chapter corresponds to an element of a challenge, including a required item and phrase.

*squeals* Loved it! I always was hoping for a bit more of this, it's one of my absolute favourites. I just love Ginny and Draco's relationship dynamic here, if I've never told you before.

Thank you!!! *huggles*

^_^ Loved Draco just manipulating Ginny, but in a cute way. And Ginny's Weasley temper just can't go against Draco's Quidditch reflexes, can they? I can imagine Mary Beth and co. choking at the fact that her note caused Draco to kiss the wrong girl.

Loved it. Especially in denial!Ginny.

Ooooh!!! :D I like it!

I like Ginny with attitude -- it suits her... and her hair. And it looks like Draco hasn't changed much. I wonder how she becomes his 'favourite nurse'? Probably because she has a backbone and won't dissolve into tears at him snapping at her. Lol.

"You know, Weasley, I think I may like you." ^_^ *sighs happily at Draco being Draco*

Reviewer: die Loreley Signed
Date: Oct 28, 2006 Title: Chapter 1: for Sarea

Myn, absolutely *loved it*. ^_^ I can see Ginny growing up as the sort of gangly, awkward, almost Luna-like teenager as she is here after her CoS experience. Thank goodness Draco can see beneath the surface better than Harry can, eh?

I especially loved 'She didn't watch him because she enjoyed it, or even because she wanted to, although both were true. Rather, she watched him for the same reason that a magnet always pulls together with its opposite, or the reason why witchlight and water merge to make something that is neither, but something entirely different which serves as the base for the strongest potions. She couldn't resist it, and there was no use in trying - all that she could do was hope that it was only temporary, some sort of aberration, and that it would go away eventually, leaving her in peace.' Would you mind terribly if I posted it on my blog (with proper deference to you, of course!)?

We still have to talk about podcasts, sorry I haven't been around much. :$


Author's Response: Sure, knock yourself out. And don\'t worry about the podcast - I\'ve been so busy with schoolwork that I haven\'t. :P

Date: Oct 06, 2006 Title: Chapter 2: He Said...

I loved "I would do anything to have her attention on me, even if only for a few minutes." It makes Draco seem a bit desperate, but hey. Draco Malfoy obsessed with one Ginny Weasley might just turn out like that. You never know. Now I really do wonder what he would be like if he was obsessed with something that he couldn't have (ie not Pansy). Hmmmm...

Reviewer: die Loreley Signed

I loved "Did he stock bottles of cologne that would send a girl crashing to her knees or what?" It's funny how big a part smell plays in whether you fall for a guy or you run away screaming (in the two extremes, of course). And now, we see what happens...

^_^ Loved it loved it loved it! Especially loved how Gin is instinctively Ben's mum and how she does a better job at it than Draco does. How are Draco, Harry and Hermione going to tell Ginny that her brother is dead without her falling to pieces like she did?

I can't wait to see what happens, even if you haven't updated in ages. Pretty please? When you find the time, of course. ^_^

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!

Date: Oct 17, 2006 Title: Chapter 11: Chapter Eleven – Monday Morning Surprises

Wow. Ginny went from the P.A. who flashed the world and embarrassed her boss to Executive Director of Lush's new Couture line in less than 2 weeks. *gasps* (Although admittedly, my sense of timing is all warped because so much more time passes with me than with them)

I love the way Ginny cooly handles every situation thrown her way no matter how bizarre and scary it looks. I have a feeling she gets it from Molly. I'm not really that surprised that Narcissa promoted her even with her lack of experience.

Looks like Draco and Ginny are getting along (although they were getting on before with the press conference *sighs at Ginny getting comfort from Draco*). Is it naughty of me to wiggle my eyebrows suggestively at the super secret meeting at Ginny's apartment? :P

Looking forward to seeing how Ginny handles her new responsibilities and working closely with Draco. Great chapter! ^_^ You made my day by posting it.

Author's Response: Ves says: Narcissa is no fool – that promotion keeps the gossip rags and publicity wheels churning – which is never a bad thing. Plus, Ginny really is pretty bright and talented here. Wiggle those brows all you like. Lord knows we are!
Myn says: Yeah, Ginny might feel flustered, but she never lets anyone see her sweat. (I typed swear the first time. No, she definitely lets people not affiliated with the press hear her swear if they piss her off.)

Before the Storm by Glass_Mermaid    (Reviews - 491)

*Winner of the Draco/Ginny Fanfiction Award for Best Novel Length Story.* "Perhaps not everything is as black and white as it appears. Perhaps, even my father was tangled in a web of his own emotions, and in the end it spelled his death. Perhaps I too will share his fate, dying not for the cause I believe in, but for that which I cannot foresee." The ever weaving threads of our own decisions can lead to irrevocable knots, and when Lucius Malfoy is destroyed by unexpected forces, his son, Draco, is thrown into a world of political intrigue, insatiable passion and desperate gambits, opening doors he never thought to look for, and creating a life he never thought he would have as his own.

I love that Cathy quote! Although I *do* wish you'd kept on going. It's such a sad book, Wuthering Heights.

I love how you haven't changed Draco much. And how there's a ton of animosity between him and the Weasleys (especially Ron) even though they've helped him so much. That's the self-centred prat of a Draco I know. I wonder how much help living with the Weasleys will do him?

I can't believe he hasn't cracked and done something to express his emotions yet. But I guess Malfoys don't cry, do they?

I like it so far -- and if I didn't have to go to bed, I'd keep on reading. Maybe tomorrow.

ARGH! I was surfing through jandjsalmon's Featured list and came across this. I thought "Why not?" and you completely sucked me in. Well done! I absolutely loved this story and it's going in my favourites. I fell in love with Draco again too (not that you can fall OUT of love with him, our love's just been a bit stagnant recently :P).

I loved how Draco's confession of love just slipped out and how Ginny just STARED and then they started arguing. *giggles* But my favourite bit was me smirking knowledgeably at what I knew was going to happen and them being completely oblivious to the whole falling in love bit. Did I say I loved it? Thanks for a great read!

I thought that last chapter was the last but I'm very, *very* glad that you wrote an epilogue. It was very well written, and I'm sad it's all over. Have you got another story in mind?
