I'm horrible at giving feedback, which is a terrible excuse, seeing as I didn't intend to comment in the first place for fear of sounding idiotic. But I suppose it's too late now, seeing as I'm probably sticking my foot in my mouth anyway. But, eh, I really enjoyed it and believe the characterization was very on point. For example:

Will everyone know my name one day?" he asks her, and doesn't move any closer.

"Yes."

He nods simply in reply, smiling for the first time this evening. "Go on then," he says. "You can go now."

That is so like Tom, always concerned with himself before any others. And Ginny of course knows this and accepts it anyway. It was very lovely really.

Now, I must state that I love Mary-Kate and Ashley, and the first olsencest I read was Red Light. It completely got me hooked. Well, I was browsing pictures today and I don’t know if you’ve seen this picture but I thought it might be inspiring and felt the need to share. Once again, I think you are a lovely writer, and I shall stop lurking so much and try to

aww, thankyou very much! i'm glad you liked the characterisation, the characterisation was always the most important thing to me when i was writing this.

oh, i totally agree about that picture! over on my personal lj (_sparklegirl), I've been using an icon made out of that pic and every time I see it I get naughty thoughts. Thanks for showing me the full pic, i've been looking for that! I'd like to write some more Olsencest but now that I've written two I feel like I'm running out of ideas. hopefully i will think of something!

"Will everyone know my name one day?" he asks her, and doesn't move any closer.

"Yes."

Love this bit. Loved the whole fic, but this was just brilliant.

[rubykate]

thankyou! i don't really know where that bit came from, i hadn't planned it like i had the rest, it just slipped in. i guess that's like ginny actually, that bit wasn't part of her plan either.

thanks very much!

[rubykate]

i love ginny too! i hardly ever write fic without her.

thankyou! :)

That was quite, quite lovely. You've given young Tom a voice, and some real character depth. And Ginny, with her preparations to make herself look different, is absolutely fascinating. <33333
