I like this. I've always had a secret fascination with Marcus Flint.

The common interest in charms is fun. I could see Penny wanting to experiment after a relationship filled with Percy's exactitude.

Well done.

I couldn't write him as "trollish," so I settled on strong and self-confident.

I think that Percy would be very frustrating to date, too!

Thanks for the review.

“They're erotic charms for the personal pleasure industry.” Bahahahaha!

Our wizard Flint is at it again! I don't think those other charms will go untested for long...

Very...enjoyable...

[redvelvetcanopy]

Just think of the potential in that particular industry. Glad to have made you smile. I almost want to write a sequel.

*grins* I liked this one. I can see him using his job to get the girls. Shame, poor Percy not being exciting enough for her.

I really liked it though :D

[redvelvetcanopy]

Yes, I can't see uptight Percy being quite so laid-back and fun as Marcus is.

Thanks for everything!

Ooooooh. Turns out Flint is dangerous--to Percy. I liked how you brought out a bad boy charm in Marcus.

[redvelvetcanopy]

Yes, I had to think of how to work that Slytherin in. Love those bad boys!

As difficult as it is to view Marcus in a positive light, it was nearly impossible to not be drawn to him after reading this! It is so very Slytherin of him to take advantage of the situation *smirk* And Penelope using her research as an excuse to be taken advantage of. I enjoyed this very much!

[redvelvetcanopy]

Yes, they'll both win from his naughtiness! Thank you!
