So if I understand correctly, it wasn't Draco's wand in the end that was the 'problem' but the soul bond between him and Harry? Which, I admit, is a concept that I don't like outside fanfic, and wasn't too keen on seeing surfacing here, because it's just too neat and tidy a resolution and I like my characters when they make their own peace unaided by fate. Not that I'm complaining about the lovely sex scene at the end, which worked very well.
An enjoyable read with solid characterisation throughout, and a really nice love plot. Good work, mystery writer!

Oh man, I love keeping-people-in-the-dark spells. Hermione being all frustrated and evasive and cryptic....
There, see you already know my favourite ethnic food. Progress.
:-D
Draco looked up, waiting until Harry took a drink of wine and then said casually, "Strip Poker."
As expected, Harry choked on the wine and spewed half a mouthful onto the pristine tablecloth. Draco sniggered.
and I almost just spit out my tea!
"Go get dressed, Potter. Or I won't be responsible for what I do after my next glass of wine."
Oh, I love liquid courage.
Draco had meant it as a joke, but he wasn't laughing when Harry's lips crashed into his or when he felt Harry's strong hands groping to feel exactly how long.
Awesome.
I love a Harry who, after being inundated with Harry Potterness all his life, has no qualms about playing the Harry Potter card when suitable. (Er... that made sense, right?)
"Or because I'm drunk out of my mind. I'm doing it because I've been thinking about doing it ( ... )

You know, he might have, but I don't think either Harry or Draco would have noticed if he did. :-)
Thank you, hon! I'm glad you enjoyed it. *hugs*

The premise was great, very appropriate to your team, and I was quite pleased to see it used to its full potential, with Draco's evening entertainment (hehehe), and later with him rescuing Harry. Very lucky Draco picked up that wand when he did. ;)
I loved lots of little details, too, like Draco being nervous when he showed up with the wine, or Hermione thinking Harry was dressed for a date. Their banter throughout the fic was really enjoyable, and yay for the happy ending. ♥
