I wouldn't have been able to forgive myself if Harry turned into a whiny, irrational, slightly insane girl over the loss of Cedric. But yeah, his love life sucks a lot.

Another great, heart-wrenching chapter. You belong in Slytherin, you do *g*

Love the Malfoy stuff. Never understood the appeal- I mean yes, he's evil and that's always worth several points on the hot-o-meter, but he's too...pointy *g*

[nagi_schwarz]

I started off in Ravenclaw, but I'm training to be a Slytherin. Slowly.

I never really imagined Malfoy was attractive in the books, but as Tom Felton got a bit older I could sorta see the appeal. Not to mention some people just like blonds.

Icon love! Every line in that show is made of gold.

[wirrrn]

Indeed!

[rotaryphones]

That first line slays me every time. There's just something so fundamentally opposite about pairing Harry with Cedric or Draco. :)

I'm glad to see Harry moving on, and I think you did a good job at getting at his sixth year self - a little more in control, a little more mature. Despite the Malfoy obsession.

[nagi_schwarz]

I think Harry's Malfoy obsession was understandable, and Hermione's mistaken assumption...vaguely understandable. I do like that Harry is moving on. He'd be gormless as a hero if he didn't move on.

I love this story =D

"Would that I could get as tall as him for eating what he does." lovely x)

[nagi_schwarz]

THanks. I love it, too, though for a while there it seriously hated me. Also, I'm short, and for years I thought it would be awesome if I could get as tall as my friends by eating as much as they did.

"I don't know. Sat me down and said, 'Hey Hermione, I have a boyfriend just like yours - he's a Triwizard Champion and a seeker.'" She met his gaze frankly. "Doesn't sound so hard, does it?"

LOL Good fic. :)

[nagi_schwarz]

Thanks. I don't know if the confession would have been hard. I haven't decided whether it would have been or not. Harry should tell Ron at some time, shouldn't he?
