I absolutely loved the very first section of this story- it was catchy and grabbed at me. After that, well, I clearly had to continue reading (very well done on that!). I liked the twist in which the curious circumstances involved both of them being special, although I quite like the idea of who Harry’s parents are in the books and was a bit sad that it was all lies. I also tend to think of Draco as the more submissive one, so it was interesting to read a story where the reverse is true- I liked getting that other vantage point

Thanks, I tried to make them equally strong:Harry stronger in magic; Draco the dominant partner. I hope it worked. Thanks again..

It's up! I'll be reading this tonight. From the very beginning, I was enchanted by your idea.

[cyane_snape]

Thanks. I hope you like it.

I have to confess that I've never read a Veela story before. What an interesting culture--the specifics of Harry's lineage, the change in their appearances and powers, the bonding, and then children--I found all of it fascinating. And I really did feel for Harry in that scene on the Quidditch pitch--the final straw, discovering he'd been misled again.

The trial at the end met all my expectations of what I hoped would happen--I really liked that scene a lot--the Veela's entrance, Harry standing up for his mate, how changed and beautiful he was...and all the two of them wanted was peace and to be left alone. What you did with Scrimgeour...well, I don't want to spoil it here, but you had me grinning because I've never really liked the man.

Excellent use of your prompt, fine writing, and a wonderfully creative AU world!

Thanks. There's a billion veela fics out there and I just tried to make mine a little different.
I have a 'thing' about all the crap that Dumbledore threw at Harry and just how much of it a real person would be willing to take.

The Scrimgeour thing was what came to me after I asked for help from our glorious team. Couldn't have done it without themm.

very sweet

[cyane_snape]

Thanks.

Oh! I haven't had a chance to read more than just the very first bit but seeing Harry sprout wings tells me this is going to be good! :D I also love that Snape's taking on a substantive role!

Can't wait to read more! Go team! ♥

[dracofiend]

My goodness--what a whirlwind of a world you've created! The surprises kept coming--Harry the crown prince! I liked how Remus and Severus and Albus and Minerva got excellent cameos, and I thought your descriptions were very visual. What a story--great job for Team AU! *pom poms*

[cyane_snape]

Thanks so much. I tried to create a 'new' world. Descriptions are my weakness. Dialogue is so much easier to write.

Bweeee! I had so much fun with this the first time around, and even more on re-reading it! :D I'll try to leave a more coherent comment later, but I'm about to crash now. Will plug on journal in the morning. Because for some silly reason people clearly have not been giving you enough love for this li'l jewel.

*smooshes you*

*toddles off*

[cyane_snape]

Get some sleep. This fic will be here when you wake. I'm glad you liked it.
