    omg! so, i don't usually read HP fanfic, i usually haunt naruto mostly, but what with the movie and the book coming out, and my 4-yr-old finally becoming obsessed with watching the DVDs these past couple weeks, i was attacked with the NEED for HP/DM ficcage! and a friend of mine asked me if i'd read this yet so i just HAD to check it out because i've had a severe attack of draco obsession (can you blame me??!!) and couldn't resist reading the books in his perspective!

    so, on to the actual review!! it's been wonderful! i wish i could have reviewed every chapter, or at least every "book" seriously! but i just hadn't the time *sigh* but it was lovely. of course, the earlier books passed by quickly, but i greatly appreciated the interjection of, not only draco's perspective on harry, but himself and the onslaught of puberty LOL! and being able to read/see draco's maturation mentally as well, in the things he believes because he's told to, in his own feelings or confusion about things, slowly coming to terms with his hormones and, eventually, love for harry (however tormenting at first). and, of course, books 5 and 6 were great turning points for him. his "voice" in the journal became more mature than it had been previously, as the expectations put on him became even more glaringly obvious and demanding, warring with his own desires and the knowledge that what he really wanted didn't matter

    i love the details put into draco's perspective for books 5 and 6 (and beyond, of course!), especially 6 since it's true that, as much of a "presence" as draco is in the original, because of harry's stalking, we really don't see WHAT he's doing until the end, so i loved everything you put into that!!

    and of course, everything after dumbledore's death was simply amazing, it was a crazy, emotional, long, twisted ride and i loved every minute of it, through the laughter and the tears (and there were TEARS!!) and, of course, the smut! ahhh, i can have no complaints about how extremely detailed and specific draco's journaling became, when i get to read sex like theirs ^__^

    as for all the work and imagination and... LOGIC really, that you put into all the magic and blood magic, soul magic, blood lines and weaknesses; how they found and destroyed the horcruxes, who was involved, who was injured or killed, and HOW, it was bloody brilliant... other than the perspective and first person, i could really see all this happening in the ACTUAL book, yknow?? 'twas greatness! and i loved the way you did neville's death.. though it was sad, because i love him too, i too believe it was the best way for him, and have always imagined and hope for a similar end for him in book 7--dying a hero on his own terms, fighting alongside everyone *wipes tears* and as for the final battle, it was lovely, though you really did worry me that draco was dead as soon as i realized in the first paragraph of 72 that it was harry writing... but that was good too--i'm a sucker for angst and suspense, me and my sadomasochistic self i suppose :p i'm also a sucker for the happy ending, though, so i'm ecstatic how it did end. brava

    well, i rarely have time lately to leave such a long review like this, though it's my norm when i DO have the time.. so.. i'm glad i had the time! this fic so deserves it!! and i'm glad you were able to finish before book 7. congrats. and i would LOVE to see a sequel with all the real aftermath and (hopefully) moving on/rebuilding after the war... not only draco being brought up by the ministry (and cleared! >.> ), but how will this affect the muggle world, and the havoc between muggles and wizards after all voldemort brought about? what about dudley and petunia? did they die in the attack on Gringotts? what happened with all those attacks voldemort sent out as a distraction anyway? does draco know yet the explanation about harry's comments about being part slytherin and the sorting hat trying to put him in slytherin first?? and was he ever told the whole prophecy about harry, other than the "neither can live while the other survives" bit? or why harry was whispering mournfully to the mirror before they went to the deathly hallows? hmm, so many things i wonder! so i do hope, after reading DH and having a well deserved rest, you do come back and give us a sequel!
    much love! you deserve it, you accomplished a great feat with this undertaking! i love your perspective of draco's perspective :p and i know there's much more i wanted to comment on, and could probably go on forever, but i'm afraid i'll have to end this here as my time grows short again and i'm rather tired :p

    Well, look at that! It's finally done. I still remember back months ago, when this story was only twelve chapters long. Congrats on finally finishing this monster. It was awesome.

    Review: Chapters 72-73

    Wow. I loved how you wrote chapter 72 in Harry's perspective. Your explanation for doing so makes sense.

    Remus died. How sad! But you really had to, didn't you? Well, I think wherever he is, he is happier and more at peace. What more can he ask for anyway? He's with Sirius now.

    Sigh! The ending was sweet! I loved it!


    I still can't believe you're done with this fic, Daft Fear. I will surely miss the anticipation I felt waiting for the next chapter. I will miss the fast-read I do just to know what happened with the characters. And last but not the least, I will miss posting my insights for each chapter.

    Okay Reiche, you can manage this. No, don't cry. Please, for the f*cking nth time don't cry.

    *takes a deep breath* Okay okay...I'm alright now.

    Anyway, about your idea on writing a follow-up, I think it's a good idea. I'm starting to wonder how the Order would go on with their lives after the war. Although I think you'll only be able to write a few chapters, maybe 5, about this.

    Well, before you do that dear, please rest first. I think you deserve it.


    I guess this is the last review I'm going to give for this story. For the last time, I want to thank you for sharing this story with me and the rest of the AFF community. I was a bit hesitant at first on joining in your journey, but I am glad now that I didn't back out. This is one hell of a ride, and I will take the experience with me forever.

    Again, thank you.

    *looks at glomping hugs and candy and cake and cookies and ice cream and cigarettes and coffee, gives a glomping hug to the author, and finally gets 2 pack of menthol cigarettes and a large mug of coffee*

    *runs to the corner of the room, lights up a cigarette, and cries*

    I could almost wring your neck... ya know that? Playing with our emotions like that!!! HAHA!

    As for writing a sequal... DOOOOO IT! I'm going to miss reading this fiction so much... I really do love your writing. And I think you did a magnificent job with explaining things through Harry's eyes when it came to the final battle. Draco really changed over the course of the fiction and I like the way you had him turn out. He really became what I wish he really was in the books.

    I do hope those plot bunnies give you a real nice long visit and convince you that you should write many many chapters for a sequal... I think another 73 should do. LOL

    Well I'm off to read more fictions! And I will have to look up WeasleyWench's writing since you recommended it. It'll give me more to read!

    Wow, 73 chapters. I never thought it would end. I am really glad I read this story. I liked it a lot. Especially reading what Draco is thinking and feeling, it was something different. I loved the ending it was so sweet. I am glad Draco came back to Harry. And I really loved that Draco finally asked Harry to make love to him. I just loved that. Anyways, I'll be keeping an eye out for more of your stories to read.

    It's a wonderful summer morning and I'm going to a wedding later today, so I'm in a great mood, don't you dare ruin it for me with this chapter *giggles* :D Now on to the story...

    *just so you know I'm jumping up and down and my parents think I'm crazy* :D

    Hahahaha, Ginny??? Oh that's just too funny!! Although I thought she might change after Draco saved her life.

    Aaawwww. That was so sweet. And even though I usually don't like sweet happy endings with the clich
