You will probably never finish this, but I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed both parts. I have spent hours reading, enjoying and laughing hysterically at parts. Thank you for sharing.

I LOVE THIS STORY!! I'm reading it again and it still makes me laugh out loud and get a bit teary. Please if possible can you finish it? Or at least post more? Also loved 'Drop in the Ocean' too by the way, brilliant characters, really well written plots; just fabulous! Thanks for writing xx
I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard. Luckily I'm reading this last chapter in the comfort of my room instead of in public where I've been reading the rest of it. Love this story! Hoping you come back to finish it..even though it's been 6 yrs. But at least i have 4 more stories in this series to keep me occupied for now.
I have just finished rereading the series again and I hope that you one day will get inspired to add more parts to it.

... Bugger me. You're the only author that has made me like the idea of Draco/Ginny (though I must admit I also enjoy seeing Harry/Dawn). In 5 years of ravenous devouring of fanfic of all kinds. I salute you and hope you find the time to finish this.
I keep getting more and more pissed off every time you expand "Ginny" to "Virginia" rather than "Ginevra" but, aside from that, an excellent sequel so far.
(Deviation from canon aside, to me, it feels like a mix of "this author is either too lazy to spend half a minute checking their facts or too arrogant to accept a basic, inarguable detail of the material they're trying to adapt" and "this author is unintentionally poisoning the immersiveness of the story with a subtle Americanism". No insult intended... it's just one of my pet peeves.)
EDIT: Fair enough. I try not to take fanfiction TOO seriously, but getting names right is one thing that has always grated on me, regardless of the medium. (whether it's people assuming Harry Potter is short for Harold Potter or something in professional work where the author/screenwriter/etc. did know but felt it was their perogative to mislead the world to fit their view of what their source material should've been)
Comments from author:
Criticism accepted. Please keep in mind this story was started A) many many moons ago before it was revealed in canon what Ginny's actual name was and B) when I was a much worse writer. I think I have made great strides in writing ability since this. Perhaps one day when I am less busy I will clean it up with a re-write, but life and my muse aren't allowing that. Plus, I'm not all that concerned with it. Maybe I have the wrong attitude about fanfiction in general because it was always something I did for fun. Like a hobby. It's an exercise in creativity, a way to keep my writing skills fresh. I never took it that seriously, and people who do often don't like my work because of this. I'm much more detail-oriented about my own work, and fanfic was always just a stepping stone for me.
