Date: 11/25/05 Title: Chapter 15: Chapter 15: Sweets and Secrets
YAY, another wonderful chapter!!! This story has developed so nicely...how many more chapters to go? o0o, this chapter also raised even *more* questions. It's kind of annoying, actually, lol! I hope that the next chapter is Monday! I can't wait to see what Dumbledore has in store!
Author's Response: Annoying?!? LOL--that's deliberate on my part, really, just to get you thinking about things! ;) Seriously: the next chapter won't be Monday--it'll be Sunday. I MIGHT drag that day out for 2 chapters, as I am currently writing Luna's and Ginny's bit for Monday (and it's not all that exciting--lol!)! ...And how many chapters will this story have? I honestly don't know now; I think it'll have as many as it needs til it's finished...lol! Not much comfort there, huh? Kinda annoying actually, right? Heehee! Glad you liked the chapter though! :)
Date: 11/15/05 Title: Chapter 13: Chapter 13: Separate Lives
Hey! I am SO HAPPY that this chapter is up! Good job by the way! :-D
I loved Hermione and Draco's moment when they broke apart - it was so cute how he picked her up and spun her around! They have feelings for each other...they just don't know it yet! I'm so anxious for the next chapter!
Oh, and before I forget...in the sentence 'He couldn't believe it took close to forty-five minutes to choose--and purchase--a pair damned socks.' I think you forgot the 'of' in between 'pair' and 'damned' at the end. Other than that, fantastic, as usual! YAY!
Author's Response: Oops! I'll go back and fix that--lol! It's nice to know someone with a good eye! :) I was worried that the moment they separated was a bit cheesy, though; glad you liked it!! THANK YOU for the great review!
Date: 11/21/05 Title: Chapter 14: Chapter 14: Spies Like Us
Yay, another great chapter! I'm so excited to find out what happens next. What is Lucius up to, and what exactly are Anya's motives? What do Ginny and Luna have to do on Monday? This chapter brought so many questions to my mind! It is so sweet that Draco misses Hermione...I can't wait until they finally get together! This really is a fantastic story. Oh, and I thought you might want to know that in the sentence 'He'd hated having o be confined like an animal, and for the second time in less than a year to boot!' 'o' should be 'to'. I can't wait until you update again!
Stare by morsmordre13
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: It all started when he stared at her... And she stared back. Slight OOC. One-shot
Date: 09/29/05 Title: Chapter 1: stare
I really like this! H/D all the way....and you did it so fantastically! Great job! I'm looking forward to more from you...
Closer Than I Ever Imagined by 3secondfish
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: After the Voldemort's defeat in the second war, former Death eaters are still at large. The Ministry of Magic has begun cross-training between departments to make up the shortfall of qualified wizards. Draco and Hermione are involved in a training accident and end up closer than they ever imagined.
The last chapter has been appended. I'm *done*.
Date: 11/04/05 Title: Chapter 14: Gate-Crasher
OOO, ya I'm the first review for this chapter! I think that your fic is amazing, and I'm serious when I say that. I have absolutely no "constructive critisism" to give. The plot is moving well, and there are enough twists and turns to keep it interesting. Keep up the good work, I'll be waiting for Chapter 15 ^_^
Imperfect by annie
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: After the hospital scene in which Tonks finally admitted her feelings, her and Remus have a discussion by the lake. A short, rather angsty-but-fluffy Tonks/Remus one-shot. Contains HBP spoilers.
Date: 10/05/05 Title: Chapter 1: Imperfect
I dunno what to say beside that it was fantastic!!! You made unexplained canon make perfect sense (her hair, eyes, clothes...)! Yet another great job! Keep up on the one shots, they're so touching!
It's Witchcraft by Nicole_Riddle
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: When Draco Malfoy finds himself falling for the Gryffindor know-it-all, he convinces himself that it’s merely witchcraft. But when they both finally come to terms with the truth, nothing can stop them from being together. This is a tale of forbidden love and dangerous passion weaved into the Half-Blood Prince, where circumstances beyond their control might tear Draco and Hermione apart forever… Check out the long awaited sequal Fatum Amoris...The Fate of Love about Medea Malfoy and Patrick Potter now appearing in the other pairings section.
Date: 12/10/05 Title: Chapter 15: Awake
Wow, that was a quick update! A very well done chapter, I really liked it. Only one thing - “What?” she asked with her hand over hear furiously beating heart. - 'her' is spelled wrong. Thought you might want to know. I'm exited to see where this story goes! ^_^
Date: 12/10/05 Title: Chapter 15: Awake
Wow, that was a quick update! A very well done chapter, I really liked it. Only one thing - “What?” she asked with her hand over hear furiously beating heart. - 'her' is spelled wrong. Thought you might want to know. I'm exited to see where this story goes! ^_^
Date: 12/09/05 Title: Chapter 14: Attack!
Great, yet again! I was wondering why this chapter was called 'Attack'.... Anyway I just wanted to mention 2 things. 1, in the paragraph where Zofia starts setting out the dishes, you use the word friend or some variation of it a lot. I don't know how you could fix that, but I thought I'd mention it. And 2, I loved this part - “Why do I keep saving you?” she whispered to the empty room. - it was really sweet and it gave me a really good idea of how Hermione was feeling. I liked how Zofia noticed how she started refering to Malfoy as Draco again. Great work, I can hardly wait for the next chapter.
Author's Response: That chapter is called attack becuase Draco gets attacked. As usual, Thank you for your great review!
Date: 12/03/05 Title: Chapter 12: Letters
Yay, another great chapter! Alrighty, first off I want to say that I love how Draco is still the pushy-and-smirking Draco we all know and love. Secondly, it's so sad that the Weasleys don't like her anymore! Except for the twins though (I think you said that)...is that going to play a part later on? Also, I noticed something. In this sentence - Don’t come over hear, her mind yelled at him, not now when I’m almost rid of you. - you used to wrong 'hear'. Anyway, another brilliantly written chapter! Great job! How many chapters are in part two?
Date: 11/29/05 Title: Chapter 11: Decisions
Wow. It wasn't one of your best chapters, it was mostly filler, but it was still really good. I'm excited for part two! I can't wait to see what happens next. You've got me hooked on this story. And this line 'Draco watched in horror. His hope was gone.' was really good, especially as the end to his POV.
Author's Response: You're right, it was a filler chapter, and it was completely unplanned, like I said, but I thought I needed a smoother transition to part two. Besides, I had to write in that Hermione was the reason that he didn't follow through with his task. Unfortunately, a great deal of the chapter's dialogue, maybe even all of it, is from the canon. Thanks for your honesty though (and know that I agree with you about my own story! the rest is better though...I hope.)
Date: 01/22/06 Title: Chapter 18: Hiring
Bravo, darling! I love happy endings. And the final line by Hermione was absolutely perfect. =)
Author's Response: *blushes* thanks.
Date: 12/09/05 Title: Chapter 1: With One Look
Sorry, what I had meant was that I *had* wondered why the chapter was called 'Attack' before I read it. SOrry for the confusion!
Date: 11/25/05 Title: Chapter 10: Choices
Ooh, really good yet again! It seemed like it got to the end of the year really fast...I guess I was just thinking time was passing slower or something. It kind of sounded like the end at the end of this chapter. I hope it's not! Are you going to continue into 'Year 7'? Oh, and this quote - It possessed an element that made them forget that there was anyone else in the world who’d tell them it was wrong. - made me say "Awww!" out loud. It was adorable ^_^
Author's Response: Thanks, your reviews always make me go "Awww". I'm so glad you like it. Just so you know, I'm continuing it...but not in the 7th year. you'll see.
Date: 12/07/05 Title: Chapter 13: A Date
Aww, such a sad but wonderful chapter! It's just...lol, I don't know what to say! It's so sad that she never wants to see him again. All he did was love her...and he almost killed himself because of that! Come on Hermione! Anyway, I'm eagerly awaited the next chapter! Update soon! (Not like no one else tells you that already, lol)
Date: 11/15/05 Title: Chapter 8: Torn
Ooo, first review for this chapter! I really like how this plays along with HBP - you're really following the canon well. Hermione seems very...unHermione-ish at the moment, but I guess that that is part of her character (needing to convince herself that she's doing the right thing). I'm very interested to see where their relationship goes!
Author's Response: You know Hermione, she always has to be right! but she was confused; between a rock and a hard place if you know what I mean, even though her decision was the selfish one. But she is in love, and everyone knows that clear thought is the last thing that happens when someone's in love...or so I've heard. Thanks for the review.
You Shouldn't Kiss Me Like This by Ginevrawp
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: A songfic at Bill and Fleurs Wedding. Harry wants to ask Ginny to dance, but is having trouble doing so. With a little encouragement, he manages, but with consequences... Based on the song by Toby Keith.
Date: 09/18/05 Title: Chapter 1: You Shouldn't Kiss Me Like This
That was incredibly sweet! I think that you captured the characters perfectly. What Ginny said about being able to take care of herself sounded like something that JK would've written. Major kudos to you!
