I like!

And I'd beta it for you, when you're done. :P My email is this LJ name at gmail dot com if you need one when you finish.

Thanks! Any sentence was your favorite / any sentences you think are not so smooth?

Will most certainly need one. XD Thanks.

My absolute favourites:

- The fact that Draco is better than her at reciting the entire Greek alphabet backwards is infuriating - it’s just so wrong.

- She feels safe learning how to fly a broomstick because she knows that he will never allow her to get seriously injured, though she wouldn't put it past him to let her end up with slight bruises.

By the way, Muggle is always capitalised! (as is 'Mudblood' and 'Muggle-born' but not 'pureblood' hm)

The Greek alphabet started it all. I was staring at the prompts, deciding it would be a good way to kick-start writing Dramione, and it came.

XD Thanks! I thought Draco would most certainly laugh at her if she got slightly bruised learning how to fly.

Oops! *goes off to correct* Muggle is probably a newer term - last time only purebloods learnt magic, so it's capitalised still? The way Google used to be capitalised.. *wonders*

Oh this is really sweet.

The fact that Draco is better than her at reciting the entire Greek alphabet backwards is infuriating - it’s just so wrong.

“Controlling the motion of a broomstick is not hard, but you can’t do it by theory alone - a great part of flying is instinct, of which you have none, I'm afraid,” he informs her, laughing as she tries to turn left and ends up almost crashing to the ground.

The moment Draco enters her parents’ home, he starts laughing uproariously at her baby photos hung up on the wall.

Oh yea... point that out and make me look like an anti-feminist! I think I just like the snark. :)

Loved: #'s 3, 5, 29, 28 & 4!
Gave me a double-take: #34. She's the reason for the ‘Weasley is our King' song?!?

These were my favorites, but I really enjoyed the whole thing. ^_~

#34 Err.. what I meant was that Hermione was so infuriated with the whole 'Weasley is our King' song, so she wanted to come up with some kind of hex to use on Draco. *wonders if the way she wrote the sentence was confusing*

Any sentences came across as confusing / not so smooth for you?

XD! Thanks for reading! #5 and #4 started the whole thing.

Nicely done, it's the first time that I read a fic written with specific words that inspired each sentence. I really like it :)

Thanks!

The 1sentence Epsilon theme set which inspired this.

Heya! This is a really cool concept you came up with, it's a really good idea that the prompts make up sentences which make up a story in return. I don't really understand the parts in the last book cause I haven't read it yet, so. I like the way you wrote this fic, though I'm not too big on the Dramione pairing(Actually, I'm not even a fan of Harry Potter).

#5 rocks, truly. Seems like everyone else loves that sentence too. XD I like the first one too.

However, I think that #31 is kinda uncharacteristic of Malfoy even if he likes Hermione. He strikes me as the type who'd still pass cruel jibes at her(Sort of the whole 'boy bullies girl because boy likes girl' situation), but that's just my opinion. It's fine, anyway.

XD I didn't come up with the concept, 1sentence did. First saw it at a Bleach comm. I decided they had to be linked somehow, if not, it would be too random. Right now, I'm expanding on this to make a drabble series.

*blinks* This might help? And after the war, the Malfoys were standing alone in the Great Hall (I think), looking very uncertain about whether they should be there.

...I don't even know how I got sucked into this pairing. I never read HP fic prior to Deathly Hallows, and then suddenly I was reading Draco fic and.. Dramione sucked me in. Sneakily.

XD! I thought of this whole 'try to prove that I'm smarter than you' concept, and the sentence bounced in.

#31. Good point. Will think of how to rewrite it while still using the prompt. *goes off to think about it* He strikes me as that type too.

Thanks for reading and the concrit! *grinning like her icon*
