Thanks! I'm most of the way through my first draft of chapter 4 and it'll be up whenever the betas say it passes muster.

oooo... I've been following this series since it's inception, and anxiously waiting for the third installment, and it's another cliffhanger! Damn you! (but in a good way :) )

Brilliant writing, by the way- I got sucked in right from the start. I love stories that have plots (which sounds obvious, but as we all know, it's not necessarily a requirement in fanfic), and am looking forward to seeing where this ends up.

I'm going to go re-read parts one and two now, 'cause I've forgotten if we already know what Draco wants from Harry...

Well, I can save you the effort of looking by letting you know that we don't yet know what Draco wants from Harry. Well, I know, but it's not public yet.

Thank you for reading! I'm big into plots myself and in my moments of "OMG I DON'T KNOW HOW TO WRITE SEX" have considered making this a genfic. Also, I think they just make the story more fun to write in general.

I love this:

“If you have something to ask me, I would prefer that you ask me directly instead of checking to see if the answer is written on my forehead.”

Haha, oh so Draco!

Extremely well written, just like the other two chapters, but even better because of actual Harry-Draco interaction! I loved this, and can't wait to read more. Mmm, and the last two lines there made me shiver. Good stuff! :)

Thank you! For some reason I have a hard time writing Draco's dialogue. Half the time he's boring and the other half he sounds like Joss Whedon wrote him. Yay for beta readers. And also yay for aging Draco so I can get away with it ;)

Yay part 3's out, it was a really nice surprise when I checked my lj to see that you'd updated *grin* the dialogue between Draco in Harry was good and I felt that you'd managed to keep both of them in character.

Can't wait for part 4

Thank you! Keeping Draco IC...well, for all we know about his character, anyway...is always a challenge.

Very nice. I really like this Draco. He’s observant and believably grown up and funny without going over the top- a much more human character than many of the other Dracos out there. The story itself is very engaging, and I really enjoy reading things from his perspective.

Thank you for your kind words re: Draco. He's much more fun to write as a damaged adult than as a teenager, I've decided. Also, I don't know if I've ever mentioned this (I forget things easily), but originally the fic was in Harry's POV. I kind of like it better from Draco's.
