I really loved this fic. I loved the fact that you made both Draco and Ginny imperfect--she gets drunk, too. (It's so often perfect Ginny rescuing flawed Draco.) And I adored "He kept his promise. He came for her at the end of the War. When he walked across that cursed alleyway and into her arms, she was reborn. She couldn't name it then, but her heart knew what he was to her. It would always know. " Mostly because it's the first mention of them being together in the whole fic, and it felt very sudden--but in a pleasant way. You toy with time a bit in this story, but it works very nicely. And I liked the ending, when it was revealed they were truly together. Yay! Thanks for writing this; it's lovely.

Thank you! I believe true love is accepting the imperfections as well. We all have them, don't we?

Thank you! I adore this, I really do, and now I'm so speechless T__T I think I'll have to come back later and do a proper review when I'm capable of coherent thought, but THANK YOU. This is wonderful.

And I think I might know who this is XD

I hope you don't mind the latitude I took in interpreting your prompt. Something does happen between Draco and Ginny, only it happens every year at this time, pulling them back into their pasts - that place that none of us can truly escape. Theirs happens to loaded like a nuclear bomb!

I am thrilled that you enjoyed this. My job is done!

Oh, and yes, you probably do know who I am. Who else can pack that many curse words into such a short fic? *laughs*

Oh of course not, it wasn't even my prompt, I'm a back-up writer and I got to chose which of the unclaimed prompts (the prompts of the people who dropped out) I would like, and (being me) I obviously went to the most angsty one! But I still think you interpreted the prompt wonderfully! And they do have just a little bit going on in their past don't they? Just a tad though ;)

Haha! I'm thrilled that I got this fic, it's wonderful ♥

Lol, indeed! I love you for it though X)

This is awesome! Ginny and Draco are each other's nemesis and salvation all at the same time. They love each other and occasionally hate each other, too. It's the perfect balance. Absolutely perfect. And I don't think I will soon forget the image of Tonks, with chopsticks, dripping noodles from her mouth. :)

Thank you. I couldn't have said it better!

I really liked this one! It was very realistic because both are flawed, and neither is good or bad, they just are. Really refreshing, great job!

Thank you. I have had a lifelong fascination with the way relationships work!
