Oh I loved this. I'm just bouncing around and I don't know many fandoms, but this was one of my favorite, and dear lord, I love how you subverted the usual assumption of 'redemption over the girl' where this is quite different.

And it's beautiful for it. :-)

Thank you so much! I'm thrilled you enjoyed this, and that spin on the usual "redemption" trope in particular :)

So, uh, yeah. That was awesome! I don't really trudge into the HP fandom much anymore. I'm all over SPN right now, but sometimes it's fun to go back to an old love. D/G was always my most fav het pairing and this fic is exactly why. I liked the potential for darkness between them. Never one for the redemption of Draco Malfoy, I always wanted him nasty and mean, otherwise, what was the point of him? And I rather think Ginny might feel the same.

Very, very nice.

Thank you very much! It's been a very long time since I dabbled in HP fandom, myself, so I wasn't sure I would be able to do these two justice anymore; thus, I'm particularly pleased that you thought this little ficlet worked, and that you enjoyed it. The edge, and the malice were always what really appealed to me about D/G, as well, so I'm really thrilled you thought those elements came across here :)
