Wow. Holy effing... wow. I don't rightly know what to say. That was by far the most intense chapter to date. Is it normal that I feel Harry's regret in my belly, too? I simply cannot wait for more.

I squealed rather embarrassingly when I saw this was updated! I missed it so much. Thank you for another amazing chapter :D You're fantastic.

You've turned my insides to mush... again. Poor Narcissa, I always liked her. There aren't many people in the world who deserve to go like that. I love the part where Harry comforted Draco - too sweet. What's in Harry's bags? I can't wait until Boxing Day! It should be interesting. Absolutely brilliant chapter. I can't wait for the next installment!

OH MY GOD. That was such an amazing chapter. I'm loving the Draco/ Harry interactions. Ah, I'm so excited right now, you simply must update as soon as possible! :)

AHHHHH! You're such an amazing author. My insides have been turned to mush. This story is like a drug, every new chapter is a fix, but it's over much to quickly and always leaved me wanting more. I am not above begging, so please, please, please hurry and update soon.

Wow, I must say, I don't regret spending hours sitting at my computer reading the whole thing in one go. I love the hostile banter, classic. You've done such a wonderful job recreating all of the characters. And I love how slowly you're taking this. "Slow-burners" are so much more enjoyable. A rush to the romance devalues it, in the end. I can't wait for an update :)

Wow, It was short, but I really liked it. The intrigue is killing me! Update soon :)

Author's Response: Thats what I like to hear! I\'ll be updating in about two weeks. School is starting monday and I have to make sure i survive the first week.

Hmmm. Interesting. So Malfoy's got a bit of wandless up his sleeve, eh? I'm anxious to see how he will handle the Slytherin uprising. I'm a little surprised that Blaise was able to lead such a successful mutiny in such a short amount of time, but then again, they're Slytherins... I can't wait for an update, and to see what Hermione gets up to.

Author's Response: Haha, yes, just a touch. And Blaise certainly is a crafty fellow...and believe me, the uprising only gets worse. Thanks for the review!

Eek! I absolutely loved it! I want to carve Zabini's lungs out with a spoon, the bastard. And I loved the whole last section from Hermione's point of view. It was really intense, but it was also touching at the same time. No matter how much she might dislike him, she still has enough heart to save his life. Gotta love Hermione. Well done! I can't wait for more!

Author's Response: Yes, Hermione is a Gryffindor through and through - she\'s a great character! And I absolutely love all the threats I\'m hearing towards Zabini. They are amusing to no end! Thanks for your review!!

Wow, so, where do I begin? I suppose I should begin by cheering that you're back! Hooray! I really did miss this story.

This chapter was really intense. I loved the beginning from Draco's point of view. As readers, and I admit, as authors, we tend to get so caught up in his sharp tongue and arrogant demeanor that we forget he's a real, live person. It put him in perspective for me. I hate Orman. Everytime you bring him into a scene, I either want to vomit all over him, or kick him in the face. Decisions, decisions. The Quidditch match was exciting and well done, to be sure, but I'm not sure how I feel about the aftermath. I like what happened, but I'm not crazy about... the how, I suppose. The emotions and motivations were on, but the dialogue and actions seemed off. I did, however, like that Draco was the first to break the silence on the field. Hermione can't always be the one to take the initiative. It's gets old very quickly.

I really enjoyed this: heretically compassionate

Just fantastic. I think it sums up Hermione's feeling towards Draco as succinctly and accurately as possible. Excellent word choice.

I can't wait for the next chapter! Hopefully there won't be any more Orman for a while... if only for the well-being of my up-chuck reflex.

Author's Response: Ah, glad you liked \'heretically compassionate\'. I think it\'s perfect for them too (hence the use of it...hahaha). Orman...well, let\'s just say that your up-chuck reflex won\'t be getting a break yet. \r\nReading back, I can understand what you mean about the end being a little bit...off. Maybe it is the dialogue. I did have some issues writing it...Ah, oh well. Perhaps I\'ll fix it one day. Haha.\r\n\r\nThanks, as always, for the awesome review. And I cannot WAIT until one of your chapters gets updated!!!
