Omg, this was...ddfvbdivbnsoidcnyoeruchbouchbodvhw no words!

Usually I'm not one for politics but dayum, you managed to do it so well and I love well-planned and thought out stories and yours definitely is one!

Can't even begin to describe what I loved! Be assured that I found everything simply awesome...Pansy being fascinated by hairstraighteners, Percy's madness and his terrifying mindset on what is right or wrong, Harry and Draco's simply awesomely written character/relationship development and Ron being amusingly accepting of Draco and his relationship to Harry. The political games were perfectly executed as well, loved everyone working together!

What a wonderful fic, mystery author! Truly!

This was wonderful. So much intelligence and kindness from most of the characters, even some unexpected ones, without it being too syrupy or soft or fluffy. Seeing original characters and familiar ones rally round a cause was excellent. Enjoyed the slow build at the beginning too and the way Harry entered the story. The alternating points of view were effective

This was just fabulous. The whole world you built up, with all the intricacies of politics was brilliant. All of your characters were so well written. Both Harry and Draco were recognisable but with extra maturity and thoughtfulness - Draco complimenting Kreacher. Lots of bits made me laugh a lot (Ron!) and other bits were really touching. I like how nothing was black and white - no one was wholly evil, and the motivations behind actions were explored and explained. I loved Harry's network of former Slytherins and those hiding them, as well as the endearing OCs like Armitage and her biscuits. To give this review context, it is very early morning on New Year's Day, my husband is crashed out on the sofa and I have ignored him for the last (shit!) two and a half hours to finish this story. And I'm not at all sorry.

What a fun story -- and I love Harry's compassion for Percy, and the very British feel to the entire piece :)
