I am crying. After so much build up, Voldemort is just dead? Like that? I was hoping for a chance for him to redeem himself and be able to live with Hermione for the rest of his life.

I noticed that I never actually reviewed this fic in FF or here despite having read it years ago XD It is just as great as I remember it though, if not better now that I�m in a Star Wars mood as well :D I love the humor, particularly the tutu-loving, bear/badger worshipping Auror, and of course the interaction between Voldemort and Hermione. There is a lot that I completely forgot about, so it was like reading it all for the first time (apart from the ending, which I still remembered). I keep thinking of Yoda as the Yoda from Star Wars with Dumbledore beard. And the book about Everon Jewels was something I had also forgotten about for some stupid reason. This is why I should actually review what I read, or I�ll actually end up forgetting all those wonderful details (but for /some/ reason I remembered Voldemort�s reaction to Hermione keeping reading in a book).

Dumbledore�s writing on Tom Riddle�s file was a dick-move, but what else is new?

Maglor *sniggers* I keep thinking of that cute elf from Tolkien�s universe.

The darker stuff like the Cave scene was something I did remember, and it�s just as creepy as the first time I read it. Ugh. Yikes. Remind me never to antagonize the DL, will you?

It�s no secret that I�m a big fan of anything to do with Arthurian Legends, so basically having somehow tied that in is as a key factor of this story is bonus for me tbh.

OH OH OH Rodolphus getting his dick handed to him! And Bella dying! And Lucius getting punished! And the Carrows getting what they deserve! HAH!

KREACHER IS SUCH A SWEETY IN THIS!

Oh and of course in the end with the kids. Tom Riddle being a �regular� father and Hermione�s darkness was really great. Tonks� remark about Tom�s looks is what everyone is thinking, amirite?

Anyways, thought you deserved to get a review from me, seeing as you didn�t have one.

Love you!

Oohhhhh man! I loved that. The ending to ahow he never gave up. He loves her in his own way. I didn't like the "force" bit but Wlves and the twists and turns? Loved it. Read it in two days. I almost want more. Good job and thanks for sharing.

*Drools*
I apologise the Dark Lord would probably crucio me for drooling over him but how can I not when you depict him so well!!??
What an AMAZING story! you are alway able to get all my feels worked up and make me doubt my moral compass.. (damn thing just won't point straight anymore)
Always love your work, its been a while since I've read fanfics and i wanted to come back with a bam and hell you did it! So amazing!
Was quite the addiction! The second last chapter nearly broke me but the end game made me squeal in pure delight! I love how you are always able to maintain Voldemort's true (delicious) persona while still making me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.. (clearly, i must have some serious metal issue i need to work on but that a story for another day)

Thank you for a great story!
Always a fangirl!

I will start off with the good stuff. You have a writing style which is completely enthralling, and I love reading your stories, as you are definitely a massively talented writer.

However... my main problem (and I seem to have this problem with a lot of stories people write) is when the heroine of the story is suppose to be sooooo intelligent... in Hermione's case the brightest witch of her age, and yet they behave so stupidly you want to reach through the computer screen to slap the heck out of them for being to stupid to live. In this case Hermione is by canon and the way you have written her is suppose to be brilliant, and yet she refuses to show it. I realize that you don't want to show her as being weak, but her repeated defiance in mouthing off and throwing attitude at a man who can not only cause her mass amounts of pain but also can stop her ability to breath because he can control her body, just seems like something the character would be smart enough not to do.. and yet you repeatedly have her doing just that. Now I am not saying she should willingly give into him at every turn but there are ways for her to defy him that would not be so blatant, and with her intelligence being what it is, I don't see why she would do something so stupid and almost suicidal, even if she does think that death would be better... which obviously she doesn't or she would have figured out a way to kill herself by now.

My other problem is that your sex scenes in this story are weak... and I know you are capable of so much better because I have read much better from you. In this chapter alone, it was hard to tell when they even actually started to have sex, and then suddenly he was ejaculating inside of her, implying that they were in fact having sex... now mind you I am not expecting explicit details since the rating on this story wasn't that high, but when I have to go back and reread the very short paragraph several times to figure out when they started actually having sex... well, you can see where one might get frustrated enough to not even bother continuing the story. Please be a little more clear in you details from now on, after all this isn't fanfiction.net so it isn't like you have to be so vague.

I liked this story a lot, but not as much as your other works. Some chapters were a little asperous, and felt a little expedited to me, but I did enjoy it. I believe you did warn me about the comma use in this fic? Yes, lots of commas where semi-colons could have been used, or sentences that could be cut in half and used to create two stronger sentences. (I hope this did not come out as offensive, that is not how I mean to come across). All in all, great fic, as always, but not my absolute favorite of yours (I think Prisoner will take my #1 Nerys story spot, always) :)

I'm loving the story so far, and I've only come to chapter 16. The only thing is, there is no chapter 17...there are TWO chapter 16's, both identical, and then it goes to chapter 18..and I am at a total loss of the story..it does not match up with chapter 16. I am wondering where 17 disappeared to?

I have read this story twice now and it always makes me swell with awe, you are a Tomine Goddess, and I will always love your work and hope you will continue writing and keep me sane. You made me addicted to this pairing. I am going through your story list re-reading. You will see more reviews from me. I LOVE YOU AND YOUR STORIES. This was a roller coaster ride for me.

Hello again :)
I have to confess that firstly I was reluctant to read story in witch Hermione is involved with Voldemort. I was reading only fanfictions where Hermione travels back in time. Tom Riddle Jr. and Voldemort were for me two different characters that had nearly nothing in common. That's why I've firstly read "Master of Manipulation". Then I was completely enchanted by the way you write and immediately start reading "The Bittersweet Taste of Victory". Because of them my view of Voldemort/Tom Jr. changed completely.
I love when songs are involwed in fanfictions. But you've done it incredibly well! Those introdustions with songs were so fitting, that I was just stunned.
When I finished reading chapter 29, I thought I was going to cry. You don't want to know what I was thinking about you right then ;) Fortunately there was epilogue :)
It is incredible how you combined dark fanfiction with humor. This part just made me laugh out laud!
"[...]Annoyed, I glare back at him. He is perspiring and his face is disturbingly contorted, like he is in severe pain. And I raise my eyebrows when I hear him mutter fearfully:

I absolutely love this story. I just read it for the second time. The characterization was incredible. It was really nice to read a dark Voldemort who never completely gives up his wicked ways. I really liked the twist at the end of the story. I hope you update your other stories soon!

HAHAHAHA The last sentence was just ahhhh soooo voldemort. Loved it!!!!

I was practically glued to my mobile in the last couple of days. Breathing? Eating? Naaaay...no need for these utterly useless things...

I loved how you did not turn voldemort into a muggle-loving-puppy-hugging-i-can-see-the-light weirdo lol

All the time when his relationship to Hermione got more intense...he himself did not change his believes and neither did she. I mean...of course they did to some degree, but it was always believeable...There is nothing I hate more than a nice voldermort. I can see him pretending to be nice to give his children a chance..but more than that? Never.

Your story was complex...really really complex...with merlin and viviane and the amulet and the elves. I really admire you for that. You did not just borrow rowlings character, but put in your own ideas and created something of your own.

And...wow...do you know how to make it hot lol ;)

Love you story and hope I get the chance to read muuuuch more from you ^^
