I'm gettin' the feeling that Malfoy doesn't even know why Harry feels so betrayed... bet it wasn't him that told Lucius about Harry and Ginny even if he said that, or Draco told him under Imerius and was obliviated later os something...

I know you finished writing this story ages ago, and probably wont ever read this but I just wanted to thank you. I am an obsessive reader, and english literature degree student, who has memorised every single classic, cult classic and blockbuster there is to know. And yet I have never felt compelled to write a review on anything before, but then again I've also never stayed up till 5:30am reading a story in one sitting.This story was truly heartfelt, honest, complex, beautiful and incredibly unique bearing in mind that you don't own any of the characters. I really felt invested in the characters, their relationships and the plot line. I even found myself totally emotionally invested in the whole Snape/Harry implied love story. I also love how you were able to give a happy ending, romantically, whilst also staying true to what the characters have gone through, resulting in a bitter sweet but sincere ending- something I found J.K Rowling failed to do,instead surrendering to fan service and creating an unlikely and purile ending that totally ignored everything that they had been through- you never once did this. Furthermore You never once succumbed to pushing the plot line or relationships too quickly and never once did i find it dragging or stalling -the picture of harry in the memorial service was a stroke of briliance on your part. In short I enjoyed this story more than any of the Harry Potter books- or really any book in the past 10 years. I love fan fiction, I always have and always will- but please, stop wasting such enormous talent here. You have treated these characters with more sincerity, originality and care than Rowling could ever even attempt, and I can only wonder at what you could do with your own story and characters. Stop writing fan fiction- write your own story and get to a publisher. I look forward to seeing your name on the shelves at Borders.

Oh god. This really was an amazing story. I don't think I can say much else at this point. I'll be reading the sequel once my head recovers..

*rises in standing ovation*

Brilliant. One of the best written fics I have ever come across. Your plot line was so intricate with twists everywhere, flashbacks that related to everything in the present and future, detailed characterisations of every character. I'd never looked at many of the characters in this light before, so thank you for opening my eyes.

And funny thing is that you predicted half the ending, three years before it was published, so I'm truly impressed.

Oh and one thing I love about this is how you characterised Harry and Draco. You didn't make them lovesick puppies, you made them normal sixteen year old boys. They called each other Malfoy and Potter, not some sickly pet names. They were also equally domninant (if not Draco being more submissive than Harry) which is a big change from all other Harry/Draco fics where Harry's madly in love with Draco, who in turn treats him like shit. It made it a lot more realistic too. And Draco's personality was so lovely done. From the start you told the readers that Draco sincerely loved Harry for who he was, not just for sex, and their love for each other was real and deep.

I'm sorry if my comment doesn't make sense and is way too long to read, but I've just spent the last 7 hours reading this and it is 6am.

Once again, you are an amazing writer and THANK YOU!

*breathes out a huge sigh of relief*

I think I held my breath throughout this whole chapter. You, my dear, are the master of suspense. You've characterised everybody so well, and I love the relationship you've built between Snape and Harry. This is the first fic I've ever read where Snape is actually kind and cares deeply for Harry, and the first fic where Ginny was bonded to Harry like that. So congrats! And thank you so much for what I've read so far! It's 3:30am and I'm completely addicted to your story.

*rushes off to read the rest*

Beautiful! Simply stunning. Very emotional and deep towards the end. I loved Draco's angst over Sev and Harry. Bravo! I absolutely LOVE your work and I think this one takes the cake!

That was a sad ending...Dean and Seamus died too?! T_T

Happy that Harry and Draco didn't die. Awesome job on the story and the relationship between Harry and Draco. Kept me reading for hours :)

Wow...Hermoine as a seer?! That was quite a twist in the story. Love it! =D

Aw, quite a sad moment between Harry and Snape...hopefully he doesn't try to break away from Harry completely.

For some reason I like the Ginny here more than the Ginny in the books. I'd much prefer Harry and Ginny as brother and sister rather than a love couple. Great story btw. =)

wow.

i just read that through for the second time... provided great procrastination material while im meant to be submitting assignments...

i had forgotten how depressingly somber that ending was...

poor harry!

Thank you so much for an incredible read! I love how you balance Harry's relationships with Draco, Severus and Ginny. I think there is really something there with all of them and am sad when authors sacrifice one or more for the sake of their story. I think your vision of Voldemort's efforts at immortality and how Harry ultimately kills him, body and soul, is original and well thought out. Your descriptions of the various bonds and legilimency/occlumency are wonderfully vivid and you really pull the reader into Harry's confusion and desperation.
And your ending... you honor the dead and the grief of the living; you honor the essential changes Harry has gone through to fulfill the prophecy; you offer hope for the future without falling back on anything trite. All that in one concise chapter. Really well done!
Thanks again.

Woah, loads of reviews, everyone likes it! AND I agre ;D

Guess what? I'm still liking it :) Do you think you could send me the link to that story you mentioned in your notes in the bottom of chapter11, just cos it sounds rather interesting and I'm quite a big fan of slash :D I'm loving the developing relationship between Snape and Harry and also the way Harry seems to be becoming more dominant in his and Draco's relationship! I reckon you used just the right amount of slash in this chapter- no problem from me :D

*Goes off to read rest of story*
