Oh that was cruel. *sniff*

Don't know why I didn't pay attention to the deathfic warnings - I'm too optimistic, I guess, lol.
Anyway, this was excellently written I thought, especially your characterization of Draco and the way you integrated all the cards. Nice entry!

I'm sorry! I am the same as you, I usually avoid deathfic at all costs - so I tried to warn. *passes tissues and chocolates*

But thank you for reading and for your lovely comment; if it hurt a little to read, I must have hit my mark. Thank you so much!

I tend to ignore the deathfic warnings, too. x_x Urf!

That was a spectacularly done fic, though, even though the ending punched me in the gut. I love the scenario, and Draco was delightfully in-character, all stuck-up, bratty and proud. Harry's characterization was well-done, too- making things steadily worse as he tries to fix everything. ^^()

Well done. =3

Oh, I'm sorry! I should have put the warnings in big bold letters, probably. They often scare me, too!

Aside from that... thank you so much! I am really glad you enjoyed this (er, until the end, that is) and that you thought the boys were in-character; stuck-up Draco is a personal favourite of mine to write. And I'm really pleased that the ending punched you in the gut - that's exactly what I was going for (though I'm sorry if you weren't expecting it! Here, have a chocolate!)

Thank you so much for reading and commenting!

Thank you so much. The ending was a source of much angst for me, so I am delighted that it went over so well. Harry's determination to Do The Right Thing has always worked for him in the past, and I really liked creating a scenario where the opposite occured and he left everything worse than when he found it.

Thank you so much for reading and commenting; I am absolutely thrilled that you enjoyed it! "Powerful" is the best reaction I could have hoped for.

Oh wow, I wasn't expecting Draco to be the one who died. *sighs* I was so hoping Draco would escape, silly me.

Great job though, the tension between Harry and Draco, the discussion without any end.

*hugs you* That must have been difficult to write.

Sorry love, I didn't want Draco to die either, I really didn't. Blame that bit on lokifan, who planted the idea in my head!

I'm glad you liked it besides that bit - the tension, and the discussion that goes round and round and never seems to make any progress. It's the irresistible force vs. the unmovable object, it is. Stubborn boys.

*hugs back* It wasn't as hard as I thought it'd be - of course, in my mind, I'm bringing Draco home and fattening him up again. Denial is a wonderful thing!

Thanks so much for reading and commenting hon!

Oh, that was really interesting! I enjoyed Draco's desperation and Harry's insistence on doing the 'right thing.' How sad, and nicely written!

Oh, thank you so much! It was fun to show how much damage Harry's blind determination can do, for once. I am so glad you enjoyed it!
