WOW! Thanks so much for sharing! This is so epic and so well written (which is very appreciated by the way).
This little exchange has got to be one of the best I've ever read in HPfanfic, (and believe me, I've read a TON)-- I especially LOVE the last line:
''And,' Harry said, placing his arms behind him and leaning back, 'I think I'll worry about it later, if we manage to survive long enough for it to matter.'
'Are you always so optimistic?'
'Hermione's the optimist,' Harry said, looking at him. 'I always just assume that whatever it is, I've probably already survived worse.''
And HAHAHAHA! Draco's engorged cock, Clarence, with his funny vocalizations had me cracking up! :D I look forward to the continuing/next story!

I tore through this story over the past few days, neglecting schoolwork because it was that good. Your Voldemort is the right amount of creepy, ingenious, and evil dark lord. His plan to take over the world is not at all cliche or trite - it's insidious and plausible, which makes it so exciting and chilling to read.
How the relationship of Harry and Draco evolved over the story was great. Too many times authors just throw them together in bed without actually parcing through the deep emotional and physically scarring they gave each other.
I love the flashbacks in the beginning of each chapter. They provided a fuller picture every time of either Harry's or Draco's life and how they got to where they are now. I don't know if it's necessary/feasible for the next installemnt of this series but it was done beautifully here!
Your chapters are long and substantative. Too many times authors just have description after useless description which gets incredibly boring to read. But I was so eager to find out what happened next!
My only critique of this story is how you wrote about Africa. You painted a picture that was very homogenizing of an entire continent and relied on stereotypical tropes of poverty, disease, and helplessness. There are certainly parts of Africa that are improverished but there are parts of different continents around the world that are just like that. The scene with Draco and the African child in the village seemed so out of place. What was your intent in including that? It seemed that you were reinforcing the stereotype of lazy, starving Africans - that Draco could just pull a child along and afterwards he would just stand there listlessly. I just felt really uncomfortable with how you were writing about Africa as a whole since it reinforced those stereotypes despite Ethopia being a really developed nation.
I normally hate cliffhangers but yours was written extremely well. Cannot wait to see what Harry, Draco, and everyone else will do next! Overall, great job.

about the story..
Well I'm finished, as I said this was good! It had such
the right balance of every element that it just works...and
the fact you took the key players out of London and into a
COMPLETELY different continent, with animals that will eat
you...well that shows some 'balls'. :-)
But, I have to say chap. 14 was my absolute fav! The Chosen
One & the Lion Conqueror against basiliks. Wow...and I have
to say I loved Clarence, he was tha' shit! I'm surprised Draco
didn't take him home! Oh and yes your ending did have me going 'grr', but
I'm loving 'take charge Harry'. You don't see it much.
Another thing about Harry, I liked the dark element within you
gave him, something tells me that will come in handy in the future.
Anyway, hope you do continue this, because you really have a good
thing going with this story.

You are absolutely the best writer I have ever had the good fortune of reading. Your story is ALIVE. The environment is palpable, the characters react as they should, and you don't TELL us what we're reading so much as CREATE it for us. I can't even put it into words properly. Authors can go on and on about Draco being witty and clever all they want but you MADE him say clever and witty things which is infinitely harder and so much more satisfying. I'm literally drunk on your words. Draco has always been my favorite Harry Potter character and I rarely see him accurately portrayed as the intelligent, snarky, emotional character that he is. I'm rambling but I wanted to thank you for being so amazing and writing this completely addicting series. I'm hooked and will definitely be looking forward to future installments.

I'm only on #5 and I can't help but say...damn this is good!
I loved the mock duel between Lucius & Narcissa You're the first
I've seen write something like that, she really is lethal.
The only thing I have to say is...just a little update at a time
or this will be lost in the shuffle.

Hi, I wanted to let you know I just read chapter one and am now off to reading the other chapters you have uploaded of 'Bad Faith'. So far, I am hooked, and the fact that it's very well written makes it even more enjoyable. I read and review tons of stories on AFF and your's is really good. Oh, and don't let some negative reviewer (who probably has never even written a story) get you down - they apparently can't understand your warnings/tags/description. I like it and am sure others will too. Good job!

Talk about a clffhanger!! I don't remember when you started this or last updated but I sure hope you intend to finish in a very short time.
This nicely different from a lot of other Harry/Draco stories. Took them FOREVER to get together then they are whisked apart? Your Plot is very good & your characters interact with each wonderfully. All in all though you need to be writing this REAL soon for my blood pressure's sake.

.......this is complete?! More like a cliffhanger to me. And you have a M/M warning to boot - of which I didn't even see a hint of.
It's well written, though I find your summary extremely misleading.
