Terrific! I enjoy this little tail quiet a bit. Thanks!
I thought this was a lot of fun. I find it hard to see Harry this way--oh, I can see him very much wanting to be the family man, just hard to see him as trying to cram Hermione, then Ginny into a mold they wouldn't fit and being so presumptuous about it. That said, I loved the Remus/Ginny romance, and the theme of finding what fits and being true to yourself--that rose as a metaphor was perfect. And as a HG/SS shipper, how can I not love your Snape? I loved how learning Harry was Remus' rival brought him around so quickly.
This was such a lovely story. I almost cried when Ginny left Remus on the porch. :( And Harry came off as such a bastard. (I'm alright with that though.) Good job!! Great story.
I'm so glad Percy made it. I'm not a huge fan of canon Percy, but I think in this case I can overlook that. You are a very talented writer. Thanks for sharing your works with us. ~Clara
Not a bad story with some very good characterizations, but I dislike OCs whose main purpose is to have everyone happily paired up at the end. I would have been happier with a Harry still trying to find his place in the world, baffled by a failed marriage to one of his closest friends who cheated on him with someone he dislikes, then rebuffed by the only other woman he's been close to. Not quite as happy an ending, but it rings truer.
Author's Response: Actually, Harry isn't "paired up happily" with anyone. He has a date, that's all. He's not baffled by the end of his marriage - he had two other fics to understand why his marriage to Hermione went south ("If She Fell" and "In A Lifetime"). My OC's purpose was to step between Ginny and Remus for a time.
Ooo a happy ending AND a wedding. Squee! Thanks. I enjoyed.
Yay for assertive Ginny! Thanks.
Loved this almost as much as 10 years after and its sequel.
Oh I am so happy to see this. I love this series and now feel I should read it all over again delightful series
Author's Response: Thank you so very much!
i loved it but i am so sad to see that it ended. it was amazing
Author's Response: I'm glad you liked it.
*Applause*
I've loved this story from the start. I really like the way Ginny / Remus works and I think it's great that you've written her so strong and independent. Ahh... romance... *sigh*
Thank you so much for writing and posting this, it truly was lovely. Can't wait to see more of your work.
Author's Response: Thank you so much. I will be working on a WIP over at Ashwinder called "Pandora's Box" now that I've finished this.
OH MY GOD YOU POSTED I AM SSSSSSSOOOOOOO EXCITED AND LET ME TELL YOU IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT BUT I AM BEGGING YOU PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME WAIT THAT LONG AGAIN IT KILLED ME--I CHECKED EVERYNIGHT TO SE IF YOU POSTED
Author's Response: I'm so sorry! I was swamped by real life. I have one chapter left to go... then MAYBE an epilogue, not sure yet. And I promise, I won't make you wait too long.
I've been enjoying this story. I appreciate that you're not villifying Harry while pointing out why he and Ginny aren't suited to one another. I'm pleased for Ginny that she got the top job; just because Hermione's brilliant doesn't mean other people aren't smart and competent.
Author's Response: Thank you!
Harry was a jerk he needs to grow up badly.
Good for Ginerva and Remus=)
Author's Response: I don't know that he's so much a jerk as clueless. He just doesn't get it. He wants what he wants, which is fine, but then he goes looking in the wrong place for it.
Waaah! I'm so glad you updated this. I'm glad Ginny finally made up her mind - hopefully she's not going to have too much trouble convincing Remus next. Thank you so much for this wonderful story.

good on you for using lyrics from Wicked as you ch. titles.
Author's Response: Wicked was a wonderful show. I have two more chapters planned. One is halfway written and the other is outlined. I should complete the next chapter this week.
i am still here anxiously awaiting your update on the story i really love it and want to know what happens next

Author's Response: I should be updating in the next week or so. I've had a houseguest from out of state and an audit coming up at work.
Nooooooooooooooooo!!! I'm not sure I approve of Remus resorting to trickery. I want Ginny to choose Harry but I guess Remus must luv her more *sigh* O well. Take care of harry tho. he better end up with somebody good
Author's Response: I'll take care of Harry. He's been through a lot. First he loses Hermione to Snape, now Ginny might end up with Remus...he needs some happiness.
I luv this story! i want harry to win!!!!! but remus has got snape on his side so hes got a good chance aaaaargh lupin is not allowed to win!!! im definitely rooting 4 harry
Hee! Thanks.
I love this chapter and I am glad you added it. Your series is one of my faves please keep it up

Oh my god this is my first review i like to read a little bit before i actually comment--and so far all three chapters are amazing i love it a lot you are really good and i hope you continue to post more and soon so i can continue reading
mariann
Author's Response: I'll be posting more shortly. Got into HBP and started outlining a canon fic, but I'm not abandoning this one.
Well, Harry certainly seems to have dug that hole all by himself. So much jealousy after one date would scare me, too! Anyways, I love this story and I hope there's more coming soon.
Author's Response: I will be continuing. I was waiting until after HBP and now it's AU but s'ok!
