LMAO...That was funny!! Especially the last bit! I wonder what they were up to in the broom closet now that I know that Jordan's not homo (no offence). And I wondering what Fred and George have to tell Hermione...Hopefully the potions isn't screwwed up!
Author's Response: Aren't we ALL wondering about something? Take me for example. I'm wondering when did chappie twelve get accepted...hmmm??? U'LL FIND OUT THE ANSWER IN THE NEXT CHAPPIE!!!

Very nice! Read your story for the first time from the first chapter. You make me want to dig up my copy of Romeo and Juliet and go read it from cover to cover all over again! I think it's very cool how to try to reflect the happenings of Romeo and Juliet in Draco and Hermione's case. Impressive. The situation R & J were in is similar to what H & D are facing, albeit the minor differences. Very much anticipating the next chapter!
Author's Response: I'm glad you feel that way! I'll never get tired of this play. Thanks for reviewing!

Oh man...Poor Draco. Both Gryffindor and Slytherin are definitely going to give them a hard time. They're not going to have an easy relationship. Sigh...anyways, wonder what Hermione's plan is all about! Will be looking forward to reading about it in the enxt chapter!

Hmm...Draught of the Living Dead huh? I hope that works out fine for her. It'll be bad if somethings happens to her while in the process of ensuring peace between everyone. Anyways, great updated! I was laughing my ass off at the whole nurse bit! Just like in the play itself, with Madam Pomfrey involuntarily playing the nurse! =D Can't wait for the next installment!
Author's Response: I'm glad you got a laugh! I'm going to update again today... Thank you so much for reading!

Author's Response: thank you so much. :) I'm glad you like it. And I'm especially happy that you like my style. I keep on getting doubts about that. And yay, chapter 3 is up soon. :)
The Unseemly Proposal by sparx
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •
Summary: The reign of Voldermort comes to an end, and with it ends the prestige and power Lucius Malfoy once had in the Wizarding World. In order to regain the respect of his fellow wizards and to make them believe that he has turned over a new leaf (which he actually hasn't) and has graciously accepted muggles and Mudbloods, Lucius asks Hermione, a Mudblood, to marry his son, Draco, a pure-blood. Obviously, they both refuse, but Lucius isn't going to give up easily. After all, he wants his status back. He still has a few tricks up his sleeve and is determined to play match-maker. What happens next is a series of events that serve only to bring Hermione and Draco closer, both literally and figuratively speaking. Read to find out how this one unseemly proposal causes absolute chaos in their lives! THIS STORY IS NOT HBP and DH COMPATIBLE! Hey all! Check out my personal info for the expected date of the next update. =)
Date: 04/17/05 Title: Chapter 11: Chapter 11- The Day After
i've already left you a review, but i was just wondering--how did you get so good in comedy?
Author's Response: OMG!!!!! Ok, Let me just set this straight. Everyone reading this must be wondering why in the world I left a review for myself. Well, I DIDN'T!! I'm not as egotistical as that. This is all thanks to my DEAR friend, Serina, who thought it'd be funny to log into my account and leave ME a review in MY OWN NAME! Apparently, she sent in two reviews in my name, but only the second one got through thanks to the logging in problems. LESSON LEARNT: Never give anyone your privte passwords (even your closest FRIEND!) because you never know what they're up to. I'm going to KILL you, Serina!! (And I just found out she was being sarcastic about the whole comedy thing. Boy is she going to get it from me!)
Date: 08/03/06 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1- The Unexpected Visit
Hey guys, sparx here. Yup, it's me, leaving a review for myself not because I have nothing better to do, but because I think I owe you all an explanation and I think this is the best way to get your attention. I don't think I can apologize enough for leaving you all hanging after chapter 32, but all I can say is that I was going through a really bizzare and difficult phase in my life that I rather not talk about (it's a loooooong story), and it took so much out of me that for the past three months. It was beyond horrible for me to leave you guys midway like that, but believe me, the circumstances that I was in rendered me helpless to do anything about updating, or even using the computer for that matter. I know it sounds like I'm making excuses, but I thought you all deserve an explanation. I do hope you'll continue supporting TUP despite my disappearing act. I'm really sorry guys. I still love you all. =)

I have to admit that I was thinking Hermione's and Draco's romance will start while she's still a prisoner, but I was wrong. And I think that's a good thing because now I'm even more curious to how they'll fall in love! I absolutely loved the way you wrote this chapter. I was about to burst into tears myself. I'll really be looking forward to the next chapter!
Author's Response: hoohoo, glad i got u hooked ;) but i have some bad news...i seem to have some problem with adding new chapters, because i cant seem to post chapter 6...ive tried twice now and it seems to be submitted but when i come back the next day its gone from my edit stories list (u know, the thing where it says whether its validated, rejected, or in queue)so i ll go try again right now but im afraid it might be a while---and this is the second time ive written this response because the first time i tried to submit it i had to log in again so as u can see there are obviously some problems with my account --- ill keep u posted through the reviews...thx for the wonderful review sparx!
Author's Response: oook i have now posted chapter 6 AGAIN and it says in queue so hopefully it will be accepted!! urgh, all this cant be good for my blood pressure ;)...

Better late than never! I'm glad you finally did update. I was slightly disappointed about the wait, but I guess you could say it was worth it. This chapter was really good. Your use of language is fantastic. I liked the way you made Hermione the observer as well as the one who seeks revenge. Very interesting concept. Anyways, keep it up and hopefully the next update will not take so long! =D
Author's Response: Again my deepest apologies for the long wait. I'll try to get the next chappie up ASAP. Thanks for the wonderful review.

I liked the whole expression of time. Very well written. And Hermione's anger is totally justified (if she is indeed angry about what I think she is). Anyways, will be eagerly anticipating your next chapter!
Author's Response: glad u liked the time stuff, and ill try to get chap 7 up as soon as possible so u can see if ur idea is correct :P the review is much appreciated
I love...who? by Hermiones_Revenge
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Harry writes a love note to one person...but someone else recieves it and gets the wrong idea. From here, confusion and chaos come about. Who is really sending the notes? Who really likes who? What is going on?!
Date: 03/29/05 Title: Chapter 8: I can see clearly now (sort of)
HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.................That was HILARIOUS!!!
BOOOOHOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO.................Why did it have to end???!?!?! I wish it was LONGER!!! But it was still FANTASTIC while it lasted!!! =D
Author's Response: It had to end because if it got any more confusing, I wouldn't have been able to keep track of it!
Date: 02/28/05 Title: Chapter 6: The Plan

The Sweetest Sin by annie
Rated: Professors •Summary: In the years following Voldemort's victory in the second war, Muggle-borns must become slaves and servants to pure-bloods in order to survive. Over time, Hermione Granger has learned to suppress her pride and independence in households where she is considered lower than dirt. She thought she would be prepared for this new family, just like she was for all the previous ones. What she didn't know was that this new family was none other than Draco Malfoy's. Will she manage hold up when she finds herself struggling to withhold her sharp tongue, returning hatred, and...something else?
The last chapter of this story has been posted! Thanks for reading :)

Wow, I didn't exactly expect Pansy to react, but that's a good thing! I thought for sure that Pansy would blow up. But yay for her actually pushing for Draco and Hermione getting together. Making Thomas a Death-Eater at that age is just evil and I hope Hermione can persuade Draco to stop it ftom happening. Loved the robe that Hermione receieved and nice touch with the craving of an iris. Overall, a very well-written and insightful chapter. Can't wait for your next!
Date: 08/10/05 Title: Chapter 15: Numb
Man...That was really cruel. Bloody Death-Eaters. Pain-in-the-Butts. Wonder who carried Hermione off in the end... Will be wondering until the next chapter comes up!
Date: 03/14/05 Title: Chapter 3: Up to Something
First time reading this story and I think it's really good. Do update soon!
Date: 08/02/05 Title: Chapter 14: The Story of a Girl
Hmmm... It all makes sense to me now. Thomas and Kathryn are older than Draco and Pansy's marriage because they were conceived before that. This chapter also explains Draco and Pansy's relationship. I do pity Pansy somewhat. Anyways, it was a great chapter and do update soon!
Date: 07/05/05 Title: Chapter 12: Mudblood Town
Greta chapter. I think you portrayed her emotions just fine. Well done. =D
