By Jove! What a twisted, wickedly good fic! I most certainly liked your exploration of Draco's psyche; your descriptions matched the tone of the moment so well that I actually clutched a hand to my chest as I was reading. Very visual too, in a good way I mean. :)

Thank you so much!!
What a compliment! Well, it really was a beautiful piece of artwork and I had to do it justice :D
I'm so glad you like it!

To sirra_scribbles.

When I first saw this drawing, I was immediately pulled to it. It's got this melancholy quality to it, all the more so because it's black and white. Moreover, I think you gave it quite a good title, as ambiguous/vague as it is. Draco looks really amazing.

[elainemalfoy]

I totally agree, especially about the ambiguousness of the picture. It's really beautiful, intriguing and dark & I adore the complexity. sirra_scribbles did a brilliant job. I was lucky to have something so fantastic for inspiration XD

I don't really know how to describe this fic other than: chillingly good! Gave me the shudders towards the end, the way he welcomed death as salvation.

I enjoyed writing this, he's a really intriguing character to explore:D

That is one intense piece of writing. Wow. I never expected that Draco would take out his revenge on Hermione, and never in this way. But it does make sense. Chillingly so. This line - He wanted some one else to take control again because it was the only way he felt in control. - seems very true to me. Thanks for writing this! :)
