Tres bien. It's late, but I've been meaning to read the update for days, and have only just gotten around to it, so you'll have to forgive me for my short-windedness (or be thankful for it, whichever you prefer ^_^). I really have to commend you for the emotion you convey in your story, because the more you write, the more real it becomes. Your characters aren't doing a bunch of crazy things without the reason clicking for the readers, and when a character does make a sporadic action, it's still a logical one for that person at that time.
A few grammar/spelling mistakes, but none too bad. The only one that I really paid much mind to was you used "their" when you meant "there." A few other simple typos, but that's about all. I'm still loving your writing style, it helps to keep the story moving and exciting even through the long "talking/explanation" bits of story.
You have a wonderful way of showing human thought in writing. It's quite magical how you do this, and it is something I hope you don't ever lose, because it is refreshing, as well as attention-grabbing, to feel as if you are reading the thoughts of characters in a story, as they think them.
I also like how you've realized the next step of Draco and Hermione's relationship is far above what they have experienced so far. It's also nice how you make sure neither of them have any idea where their relationship is headed, simply because it's such an odd one. Hehehe, it's all so deviously exciting!
I want to tell you that you did an excellent job with Dumbledore. Usually when fanfiction writers have Dumbledore speak, it reads nothing like how he speaks in the books. However, when reading what your Dumbledore had to say, I couldn't help but feel as though he was saying things JK would have him say. I especially loved how he had an "unfortunate knack for impromptu meetings." TRES, tres bien.
Well I'm off. Must work in 5 hours.
damn fanfiction, it shall be the death of my beauty sleep.

Lovely new chapter! I particularly liked this one. It seemed like a nice transition between a lot of the anger and now into some of the loving! Yay! It was brilliant and totally believable. Moving along at a nice pace! Keep up the good work!

Once again you have left me emotionally exhausted. The way you write just pulls you in and it's like you experience all of the characters feelings personally. Hermione is just so broken and Draco so helpless and confused. I love how you have been portraying Ron, it's refreshing to see him written as more than the ignorant best friend. Anyway, please update soon, i can't wait to see how things progress!

*sigh* I don't know what to say. Your writing floors me. I think you do some of your most brilliant work during the wee hours of the morning. I know it's a strain to stay up so late pouring the essence of three hearts out onto the page (yours, Draco's and Hermione's), but your brilliant at it. So angsty, so emotional, so glorious. I check everyday for an update, please don't keep us waiting too long for chapter 10.
