Just found this and I completely love it! I knew those vids, too. Great plot, well-written. Any chance of a sequel...?
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm really gratified that you enjoyed it. The vids were wonderful inspiration - when I was first presented this challenge, I was like, "Ewwww"...but I really enjoyed it. As for a sequel...I dunno. I can't really think of where it would go from here...ideas? You could write a sequel...:)
Brilliant! I watched the video on youtube a couple of weeks ago and I remember thinking that i wished someone had written it as a story. I was thrilled when I stumbled upon your story and you did an amazing job! This is exactly the kind of story I was hoping for. I love it, and find myself hoping that you would write another Lucius/Hermione fic sometime. There is unfortunately not many of them, and certainly none as good as yours!
Great job!
Author's Response: You saw the video too? Isn't it fantastic? I'm so glad that you liked my written-word adaptation, although I don't know that I have much Lucius-Hermione in my near future. But I loved writing this one, so we shall see! Thanks for reading!
Powerful, clever, and beautiful. Everyone was brilliantly characterized. I really enjoyed this!
Author's Response: Thank you! I am extremely pleased that you enjoyed all of the characterizations - some of them were tricky!
I absolutley loved this fic...can't wait to read more stories from you in the future xxxx
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm tickled that you dropped in to read my tale.
I absolutely loved this story. I'm glad it played out this way, but I wish there was more. Have you thought of adding an epilogue that takes them 5-10 yrs in the future?
Author's Response: Thank you so much for reading! I have not actually considered such an epilogue or maybe a companion piece...my true passion is Granger-Snape, so I haven't had a lot of inspiration in other fields of fan-fic. But thanks for the suggestion - now that it's been made, maybe it'll percolate and I can dream up some more.
This is lovely. I like your characterisation of Lucius very much, and the ending is simply beautiful.
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you liked Lucius...I was afraid he might be too soft.
Love it! The whole story is just incredible! Gods, I wish there was more...
Author's Response: Oh, thank you! Unfortunately, I think there will probably be no more...it stands so nicely all on it's own. Thank you so much for reading!
Well done on this chapter, I loved your inclusion of Viktor.

Author's Response: Thank you - I've never really made use of him in a piece of fanfiction, and it was fun to put him in here! Thanks for reading!
That was absolutely amazingly written.
'Nuff said. :)
Author's Response: Thank you so much for reading!
I love the way you've set this up, I'm looking forward to your next installment. Great job and post more soon!

Author's Response: Thanks for reading! The second half is waiting for posting right now, it should be up sometime in the near future I hope!
Love the story, hope you continue it!
Author's Response: Thank you! The second chapter is in the queue, should be posted soon.
Oh, this is lovely! I watched both of the Pretty Girl Vids like you had suggested before I read the fic, and I love all three. I can't wait until you post the second half. I know that we've seen the Weasley's collective reaction to Hermione "dating" Draco, but are we going to see Ron and Harry's reaction as well? My curiosity is killing me!
Author's Response: Yay! I'm glad you watched the videos - I've never worked with this pairing before, and they provided fantastic inspiration for me. And, actually, there will be a bit with Ron and Harry in the second half, never fear! Thanks for reading and reviewing!
This is an amazing. Brilliant. You have real talent.
I love your descriptions, several pages worth of details summed up in a single line:
… so surprised that disgust could not gain a foothold on his emotional landscape.
The lady wore her knight’s colors as he strode forth to do battle.
And Lucius’s description of why he changed sides – beautiful.
Please… I can’t wait to find out what happens next.

Author's Response: Wow. This review made me blush through my grin - such amazing praise! I am especially glad that you pointed out Lucius' explanation for his defection. I feel that JKR gave us an insight into how he feels about his family in DH that I had not previously thought of, and I just expanded on that. Thanks bunches for reading this one as well!
Oh, my god! I cannot WAIT for the next chapter! That was incredibly awesome!
Author's Response: Thank you very much. It's coming with little delay - I'm glad you're enjoying the story so far!
wow! really intense... can't wait to read the second part.
Author's Response: Thank you - the second part should be up sometime this weekend!
