I haven't read anything in this fandom for a year, but this was worth reading. I love the maturity in your Ron and Pansy, and your writing style.

I'm so glad you stopped by and read, and that it was worth your while! Thanks! :)

Amazing!!! I loved this from the beginning to the very end. Your writing is poetic, and I adored your Pansy. Though not a huge fan of Ron, I thought your characterization was quite good. He's more mature, but you wrote in those snippets of uncertainty that reminded me of the old Ron too. I applaud your awesome entry.

Thank you so much for your kind words, and thanks for reading!

I love this pairing and this fic shows just why it works so well. Your matured characters are not only highly plausibly built on from canon, they feel like real, deep, complex characters. Ron's determination and loyalty are among the qualities which make him my favourite character and he uses them here to great effect to secure the woman he wants. Great story! I really enjoyed it.

I loved this! It was so well written, and I love the fact that we didn't know exactly what was going on with them until the story progressed. I love how Ron took charge in the end, like This Is What We're Doing, Got It?
Only one, little thing though, Ron seemed a little younger than he should be. I think his voice would be a little more grown up than it comes across.
But otherwise it was a really fantastic read, I've only read Ron/Pansy twice and I loved it each time.
Good job.

Thanks very much. I'll work on Ron's voice. :)

Cheers!

What a beautiful use of the prompt! I absolutely loved that the use of the back story to set the 'mood' for what is really going on with Ron 'chasing' Pansy around the ball.

Congratulations on a well-written, charming piece with a Ron who is sometimes still thick and a Pansy that is fragile beneath the wicked tongue and confident appearance.

Thanks very much!
