Thank you so much for fulfilling my wish. This is one of my favorite pairings so it made my day to see/read this fic. The final comment Draco makes in the story sums everything up quite nicely. It's also very true. I like it when characters make insightful comments like that.

I like the way you write Draco in this story. He made me giggle when he said this: “And you’re just mad about this now?” Draco asked in exasperation. “You’re suddenly so furious about this now that, after six months, you can’t possibly wait until a decent hour to come to my house and make accusations?”

Oh... well, originally that was all that was slated to happen. Just a oneshot. What do *you* think happens next? ;)

I'm glad you like it.

Damn, Leah. This pairing is one that I honestly can't stand, but somehow you made it work. How the heck did you DO that?

Because you made the setting and the situation so realistic. I can see this happening...about the battle, everything's so confused and in disarray. I can see how this situation could have happened.

I also love that you ended the story where you did. It would have been easy to throw them together into a relationship, but it wouldn't have been realistic. There's still lots of confusion, lots of unanswered questions, and you acknowledged the complexity of the situation.

Oh, and Draco saying he lost friends too? Goods for you for acknowledging that the battle was hard of BOTH sides. Nothing is completely black and white.

In short, you're awesome.

Wow. That is a huge compliment to me.

I'm glad you liked the ending. That part (and some others) I purposely left ambiguous, for the reader to try to decide what happens.

And, yes! Just because people following Voldemort were bad guys, that doesn't mean they didn't love and lose. They were still people, and Draco shows in HBP and DH that he isn't really down with the whole killing people thing.

I think leaving it ambiguous worked well. It would have just been too cliche to have the suddenly realize they love each other and fall into bed.

Draco shows in HBP and DH that he isn't really down with the whole killing people thing.

Yeah...Draco may be a racist spoiled bully and a smarmy brat, but he isn't exactly EVIL. There is a difference.

Every time i read this, words fail me.

*ahem* Anyway, I've always had a soft spot for this pairing and I absolutely loved what you did with them. It came across as very real, and I absolutely loved it.
