Like all your others, this one is great. I absolutely loved it, and wish you would write more.

As always, your writing is deft, eloquent and heartfelt. I liked this piece so much that I\'ve sent the link to several friends so they could read it as well. I think the threesome dynamics are difficult to pull off convincingly, but you have done it beautifully. One of the most successful aspects of his piece of work is your narrative voice. The fact that it\'s Blaise\'s gives you the unique ability to describe Draco from an intimate perspective that encompasses his relationships within his own house, in competition with the Gryffindors, and when he is alone and vulnerable with Blaise. It is a superb multi-dimensional characterization and Blaise is an excellent choice. That you draw parallels between Draco and Ron, and similarities between Draco and Hermione is well done. I particularly like your version of Hermione. She\'s extremely intelligent, but much of it is as a result of her cross-pollenizing of cultures and disciplines. The other strength of this piece is that you\'ve focused on the long-established friendship/intimate relationship between Draco and Blaise, and slowly enmesh Hermione into their lives. The sex isn\'t the strength of the piece -- it\'s well written as always -- but it isn\'t the strength, which in my opinion is the emotional connections. This was a joy to read.

This is a fabulous story! I do love your writing. Thanks for something from Blaise\'s point of view; amazing. I look forward to reading future postings!

I adored this story, it had a nice amount of build up to it and the chapter with the christmas carols brought a lump to my throat. Really well written :)

Just, absolutely, utterly, brilliant.

what a lovely thoughtful story. Hope that\'s not an insult.

This is superb. I\'ve read the whole thing and got dumped when I tried to review the first time... I\'ll try until I get this thing posted. I think perhaps one of the best aspects of this terrific story is the fact that you spent the time anchoring the relationship between Blaise and Draco -- that Blaise is Draco\'s touchstone, so to speak. It allows the rest to fall into place so neatly; explaining Draco\'s hurt, jealousy, possessiveness, and worry. Blaise is a terrific choice for the narrative perspective and I particularly liked his realization that the Hermione and Draco are so much alike, therefore, particularly appealing to him. The sparks between Draco and Hermione are, as always, superb, and you\'ve done a brilliant job at rendering Draco entirely lovable while still being a prat -- not an inconsiderable feat.
