I love that u were able to salvage something out of HBP....... I really hat JKR right now. She RUINED Hermione, the only good thing is that Fanon Draco is now Canon Draco.............. we were right all along.

Your story rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But nothing can overcome the WRONGNESS of HBP.

It is a sad sad day in HP world.

R.I.P. Hermione Granger, death by OOC

Why do you think Hermione is OOC?

[x_ning]

hahaha, your icon is hysterical =]

......... I can't believe you can come up with such good stuff so soon after HBP came out! I loved this. *sighs* I'm still convinced that JKR said D/Hr wasn't happening just to throw us off. After all, there was no warning at all for H/G and now look at where they are!

Aw, thanks!

I just wrote this to make myself feel better after my disappointment [in the shipping area] in HBP. Fairly minor but at least something decent came out of it. :)

Wow. Wow. And you wrote this with all those mixed up and (completely) wrong ships in HBP? This was very very nice. So effectively done. Great job!

[vexia]

I reckon it's easier to write angst when you can rely on canon -- that is, if you're a fanon writer. Everything feels more justified.

And thank you! I get so giddy when you review because I admire your work!
:P

Good for you - I can't write angst to save my life. :P It's just so... hard for me. Lol. I'm all fluff and sappy romance.

And thank you! I get so giddy when you review because I admire your work!
:P

*grins sheepishly* Hehe. Thanks! But off the record, you're a really great writer.

Whoa...That was-wow. Nice job. I loved it. I love your detail-the way you describe everything-what they are feeling. Its so powerful. I would love a sequel, or another chapter, something like closure.

[vexia]

:D

Thanks!

I am considering writing a prequel and sequel but all in due time. If it doesn't happen, I'm already satisfied that this is easily capable of being a one-shot.

[slytherinpunk]

Wow-sounds like you've got it all planned out. But really, thats awsome. Both, or one, of those things would be fantastic. And like you said, even if you don't make either, it was a wonderful one-shot. Do you have anymore Draco and Hermione stories?

[vexia]

If I had to do one or the other, I'd probably choose the prequel.

Oh, I have many. It's in my fic list, which can be found on the sidebar. There's actually more than what I've listed, but I haven't had the time to transfer them. But you'll find the majority listed there.

Oh, brilliant. Love. I was so confused until I saw 'unrequited H/Hr', 'cause I missed it at first. I love your style of writing so much, it's very poetic and lovely. And fits wonderfully into the canon of HBP! Good job.

[vexia]

If Harry loves Ginny, that's fine, but I think I enjoy there being this unrequited factor between Harry and Hermione. It's your quintessential best-friend-in-love-with-other-best-friend scenario, and it has a lot of potential for fic writing.

And thank you very much! ♥
