Oh I loved how you started this fic. The premise is amazing, not so much Astoria finding out about Draco and Pansy, but how underhanded and sneaky the lot of the post-Hogwarts Slyterins. Great job!

Intriguing and enjoyable. I particularly liked the way you describe 'Slytherins do things' and this whole parallel world of motivation and facilitation they seem to have. I also got a good sense of Astoria as a person here - which is no mean feat!

Aww, thank you for the comment! I disliked Astoria as soon as I learned about her but she's grown on me somehow since then. :P

I will not lie; polyjuice has got to be the single greatest plot device invented. I use it too shamelessly. :P Thanks for reading!
