Wow. I don't really read dark Harry stories, but I sort of liked this... at least, the psychological aspects. And of course Moody condones torture! He's f-ing donald rumsfeld. lol. Great work!

I'm happy you enjoyed the story even though it's not usually your cup of tea. Thank you for reading!

This is really great! I loved the way you've managed to show the...what's the word? The split-sides of Draco's mind, I guess. The Mirror was a great idea! Love it!

*smiles* Thank you! It was a bit tricky trying to do it without dialogue from Draco but I'm glad you think it worked. Thanks for reading!

Oh my god I'm absolutely in love with this. Oh god

[lillithium]

Oh thank god! *laughs* I am so happy you enjoyed your story! It was quite a delight to write this for you. Once I saw your prompt and your preferences the plot bunny just ran with it!

I'm delighted you found my Dark! Harry believable. I tried to make him as IC as possible, Draco as well. He turned out to be somewhere in the grey moral area rather than full out dark. :) Draco was especially hard to write just because he has no dialogue in this fic due to Snape's "contingency plan", I'm glad you think I was still able to capture his personality.

I loved that line too. *smiles* It sums up the cruelty of Draco's predicament pretty nicely. :)

*blushes* You're far too kind. I'm glad you liked the story! It was a pleasure to write for you!

Er I'm not sure if you have the right author in mind! *laughs* But we shall see in the Big Reveal! *winks*

Wow, that was bleak. The lack of any real context pulls you right in and keeps you there. The two scenes with Ron and Hermione reminded you that there was a 'normal' world out there, but for me that just highlighted the claustrophobia!

Poor Draco. My heart was in my mouth with every beating and insult, but I liked how he still tried to think and gain control in any way that he could. I always saw him as fighter. I liked the way it seemed that Harry had the upper hand then Draco's POV undercut that. I'm not sure who's going to win/lose in the, but from the tome I guess they both do!

Great story, very intense.

Dark!Harry isn't usually my thing, but I enjoyed this; he's not unremittingly dark, there are many shades of grey here and that for me made him a much more interesting take, a character who'd plausibly follow on from HBP canon. Really enjoyed this Draco, too, and the changes in him over the course of the story; the way you portrayed him just barely kept it from being non-con, and I appreciated that.

I'm delighted you enjoyed the story even though it isn't usually your cup of tea. I, myself, think that a morally ambiguous Harry is far more interesting (and believable) than a full on Dark! one. Thank you for reading!
