I once said I'd never read or write an angst fic, which was moronic of me, because 90% of the things I read and write in fanon are angsty.

BUT a good humor fic is equally nice.

I mostly ship D/G, but Tonks/Remus and George/Luna are favorites as well.

Oh no! I just saw that there aren't any more chapters at the moment. Ah well, I'm loving the story so far. Ginny's dream and her reaction upon seeing Draco only moments later had me in stitches. Can't wait for the update! Great job so far.

This is definitely one of the most creative DG stories I've ever read. I love the historical aspect, as well as the switching of roles (Evil Weasleys, wronged Malfoys). Great, great job.

Author's Response: Thank you. I\'m glad you enjoyed it. I had fun inverting the family stereotypes.

I think I only caught on after Ginny told Draco that she was pregnant and then just walked off. But poor Draco. Imagine him going through the day all confused and sad - though he'd never admit to the sad part. Nice job.

Call to Destiny by Warriorlily    (Reviews - 163)

AU. The summer before her sixth year at Hogwarts, Ginny Weasley is invited to a convention in San Francisco. However, the convention turns out to be more than she thought. Much more. What does Draco Malfoy have to do with it? Or an ancient group of warriors, for that matter. Could this, finally, be Ginny's chance to prove herself?

Well, I for one am very pleased about the quick update, I've just discovered this gem of a story and so it was nice to read a new chapter so soon.

I'm really relieved that Ginny and Draco have begun to patch things up and are in a better state than they were before, although there are probably still some rocky patches ahead. And I can't lie, but there's something about Cassie that makes me suspicious of her. I don't think she's evil or anything, but just...something. I'm lame for not explaining well, but there we are. Maybe it's just her inquisitiveness.

Anyway, lovely update, and Happy Spring Break! Can't wait for the next chapter.

Author's Response: Thanks, I\'m glad you like the fic. Draco and Ginny...hehehe...I guess you\'ll just have to see. Like I\'ve said before, Cassie\'s gonna have a role to play.

Myrtle's Choice by Anise    (Reviews - 4)

The backstory to QatD. In the fall of his seventh year, Harry slips further and further into despair-- until he finds comfort from a most unlikely source. What the living can't understand, the dead sometimes do, or at least that turns out to be true of Myrtle. But she's got more than forbidden love to worry about. Ginny Weasley, the only girl who has ever been her friend, has a mysterious stalker... and when the truth about him comes out, it may be more than anyone can bear.

I have to admit, only the knowledge that this fic is related to QatD, and that you write brilliantly led me to read a Harry/Myrtle fic. Surprisingly, it's not as frightening (that ship, I mean), as I thought it would be.

What was a bit unnerving was the image of Draco in the last chapter after he saw Ginny and Anthony in the Prefects' bath together.

Ah. More disturbing Draco. Just what the doctor ordered.

She wants him to have the whole experience of pregnancy that he could never have with her, so she asks for the witch to live with him during the 9 months.

I read this story ages and ages ago, on ff.net, actually - and I fell in love with it.

And tonight, to procrastinate, and to read something really good and worthwhile so that I could take my mind off of things, I remembered this story.

So even though it's been awhile since you've written this, I just want to thank you for having created such a classic DG story. I love it.

There are some fics that are really wonderful, even without any dialogue, and this is one of them.

You write from Ginny's perspective so naturally that I can almost imagine this being part of an epilogue or something in canon. Really nice job.

Author's Response: I always get nervous about writing in the first-person, so it is nice to hear that it worked out okay. Thank you very much for the lovely review!

This was immediately my new favorite story when I came across it on Fiction Alley, and when I saw that you were continuing it here, I probably, literally jumped for joy.

This whole story has been marvelous, and I'm glad that I got to come along for the ride, with Draco and Ginny. MOST OF ALL - I'm glad that there was a happy ending. If anyone deserved it, it was the two of them.

You should be unbelievably, inordinately proud of this story - and not just because I love it, lol. But because it was so well-written and enjoyable. Thanks for writing - I hope you'll continue.

Date: Jun 14, 2006 Title: Chapter 1: A Gathering of Heirs

I really do like how the storyline is progressing right now - I'm assuming that you're following the theory that Hermione gave Harry a love potion to fall in love with Ginny. That is one of the most interesting ideas out, I think, I'm enjoying seeing how both of the girls are reacting as they understand the full gravity of what they've done; as Ginny understands, Hermione instigated the problem, but she (Ginny) went along with it and is therefore just as culpable.

But anyway the real reason I was prompted to review is because of your style. The way you write is actually enchanting; I love it. I'm not even sure how to describe it, really, but it's almost beautiful. Great job, I'm off to the next chapter!

For some reason, it seems as though Timothy's family members never die, they just become the next (male) of kin. I have no idea why I think that, but there it is. I have absolutely no idea as to whether he's "good" or "bad", but which ever side he's on seems to - luckily - be on Ginny's side.

Can't wait until the next update!

Along Came A Wizard by fallenwitch    (Reviews - 642)

A bet, a wanted witch, and a magical contract land Draco in a most unexpected situation. Can his Slytherin soul survive intact or will he succumb to one redheaded witch in bondage? Snarky humor, romance, and a pinch of angst. “I don’t want it. I didn’t order it. Now leave me the fuck alone.” He slammed the door closed. Only it didn’t close due to the enormous boot wedged into its threshold. One loud grunt later and it flung back open, almost hitting him in the face. Draco reflexively leaned back, and that’s when she was thrust into his unsuspecting arms.

Wow. That was definitely a lot to digest in one chapter.

I definitely did not see that coming. I feel awful for Draco.

Date: Apr 22, 2006 Title: Chapter 12: Balls of Steel

I can't believe it!!!! I can't believe it at all!!!! I've been hanging on desperately these last few chapters, believing that there must be some ulterior motive. That Ginny must not really be with someone else, that there had to be something else going on. But I can't see any other way out. She really did use Draco and go off with someone else only to die. And I'm trying to be hopeful and optimistic, but I can't believe it!!! I don't even know what to say, actually. I feel just as shocked as Draco must. As much as I'd like to see them reunited, even though they're both with other people, the prospect of him seeing her again after she used him and ran out on him, only for her to die in front of him is pretty...sad. A lame word, I know, but I'm sort of flabbergasted right now.

Reviewer: spider Signed
Date: Jun 12, 2006 Title: Chapter 14: His Kiss

Wow, I didn't forsee that at all. All this time, I've been enjoying your story, even though I thought that Draco's love for Ginny was one-sided. It seemed that he came to love her, and she came to appreciate him only to shunt him to the side for someone whom she thought of as more noble. Shows what I knew, doesn't it?

Nice twist. I'm looking forward to seeing how Draco deals with the truth. Thinking that Ginny didn't love him as he loved her was bad enough, but knowing now that she feels the same way, but that he can't have her may be worse in many ways.

Author's Response: I agree with you. Knowing that she loves him but he can\'t have her is much worse. Appreciate your insightful review. -fallenwitch

Reviewer: spider Signed
Date: Sep 18, 2006 Title: Chapter 59: Chapter 59

"In this strange, in-between place, Draco saw his selfishness and his smallness of heart dispassionately, and understood that these things existed side by side with his choice to take on Snape?s unimaginable pain, and his desire to die rather than to let Harry Potter hurt Ginny in any way at all. He did not try to puzzle out these contradictions, but simply knew that they existed."

My favorite parts of this chapter had to be where you talked about the way Draco feels about both Snape and Ginny. We obviously knew, when he chose to share Snape's pain, that Draco cares deeply for him. And despite everything, Draco has shown time and again that he does indeed love Ginny (though I doubt love would be the word he would use - at least not yet!).

But the way he said it in this quote sums it up perfectly for me(and even the bit that came before it). They would all go together, or not go anywhere at all - which is how it's always been. Snape has always followed Draco and watched over him, and whether Ginny liked it initially or not, she and Draco have been irrevocably tied together for years.

The contradictory feelings that he has for not wanting to let them go without him in that moment, but also knowing that he would sacrifice himself for them at any other time is just purely Draco to me.

Equally selfish and generous.
You've done a wonderful job showing that, and even though there was some great action going on in this chapter, that insight you've written into his character was by far the best part, IMHO.

And I can't wait for the next installment!

Reviewer: spider Signed
Date: Aug 12, 2006 Title: Chapter 57: Chapter 57

How awful. Thinking of how painful the Cruciatus would be in that room makes me feel the first dregs of sympathy for a fanon Snape since Book 6 came out...and that's no mean feat!

Aside from that, though, I think one of the most interesting things about your stories are the theories that you mix into the plot lines, and how they all come together in the end. Bellatrix's tale of losing her virginity to Voldemort in that room and how he rose to power - just a halfblood man to a powerful madman - is interesting. It almost seems as though any person - provided that they were insane and power hungry enough could become the next Dark Lord. Even someone like Harry, who although he's supposed to be innately good, is compelled by the seemingly endless reserve of magic behind the door. Nice chapter.
