Oh... wow. It reminds me of a poem, the way you wrote this - with First Boy, Second Boy, and Mr. and Mrs. ... Harry losing his memory as well is poetic justice, but it's a bit unclear as to why he did - to protect Ginny, yes - but why after Voldemort instead of during the war? But this story is so delicate it's really rather gorgeous. Terrific job!

Thank you so much.

In my head Harry wouldn't erase his memory of Ginny while fighting Voldemort, he would need that motivation.

Thanks again for taking the time to review.

Rarely, rarely does a story ever touch me as this one has. I am simply in awe of the beauty of this.
:) "Well done" doesn't even begin to cover it.

By far, one of my favorite pieces of fanfiction ever.

Thank you for this and for the rec on your LJ. It really means a lot to me.

Take care.

Oh my gosh. That was exquisite.

Thanks.

Wow. I really liked this! It's such an original plot! The whole time, I expected Harry really to be dead... I also thought that someone other than Harry had caused her memory loss. Just...wow.

Nothing makes me happier than when someone calls something I've written 'original.' The size of this fandom is daunting, at times, so I consider it something to be proud of.

Thank you so much for the wonderful feed back.

I very rarely, if ever, review fics. But that? Was beautiful. The fact that you DON'T write H/G as all fluff and sweetness is SO refreshing, because i've never seen their relationship as all lollipops and rainbows :) I'm just at a loss for words, really. Simply amazing :) Bittersweet, and poignant, I loved it!

Thank you so much for taking the time to review. It means a lot, especially on a piece like this, where I wasn't sure how it would be received.

Thanks again.
