I think it was a predictable ending. I knew they would both die. Just like any other story like this. Come up with a new idea for crying out loud.

I loved the story, especially the ending. It's a perfect example of the fact that no story has a happy ending, all love stories are tragedies and end in a horrible way. I think this is my favorite of all the stories you've posted on this site

well it was angst. you said so yourself so that's a fitting ending. Though I didn't think it'd end so soon. I thought it would drag out more but I suppose not. The ending took me by surprise but it was a good fic so I'm glad you could end it on a quality note.

That was very well done but I still don't feel that angst is your style. So get get back to writing the hot steamy smut oreinted, Harry/Draco falling in love stuff okay? And add a little smut in for good measure.

Anyways that was good. I'm glad I read it. Though now I think I shall go update my story, that's why I was on AFF but I got sidetracked by this fic. Great ending, looking forward to more angst in the future.

Jesus, I hated that ending. It like going an audit. But, it was a differnet ending than from your other stories. I hope your endings are more positive than negative in future stories. One of my favorite stories is 'into the closet' and I have review your past works. Again, that was a depressing ending. The story was great until the end, though I'm glad they both died and not one of them had to be by themselves in the end. DN.

It seems to me that the relationship between Harry and Draco is a very uneven one - it's all on Harry's terms. Harry makes all the decisions - from tiny ones like dragging a reluctant Draco outside in the snow, to really huge ones like disappearing from the wizarding world and banning the use of magic in their home. Worse, judging from the hissy fit he threw when he discovered Draco's use of very minor magic (the first in two years!), he has little or no consideration of Draco's feelings in the matter. The thought that Draco might be lonely when Harry goes off on one of his helping missions (the very thing they left the wizarding world to avoid) obviously hasn't struck him, nor the fact that Draco did give up his entire world to follow him. They love each other very much, no question about it, but I think Harry's present attitude is going to cause trouble, maybe even a real rift, between them in the future.

I like the way you have written this story - the first chapter starting up as a total idyll, except for the tiny, vaguely threatening detail of the box that holds their wands, and then the cracks in the idyll starting to show in chapter 2. Like Pandora's Box, once opened, cannot be shut again, I doubt that Draco will be able to keep away from magic now that he has tasted it again. It will be interesting to see where you go with this story - it's well written and full of atmosphere, and I like both characters (even though I'd like to smack Harry just now).

And so it begins. The angst I mean. That was a great chapter, kinda sad it was all over a little bit of cleaning though. Hm I can't wait to see where this goes. Sorry I didn't get a chance to read it before, I saw it this morning [or yesterday now I suppose] but I didn't get a chance to read. Oh well I've gotten around to right?

Anyways that was a great chapter. And I read your review, it makes me sad to hear that your bummed out. Hope you cheer up, it's never any fun being depressed. I'll see how fast I can get the next chapie out, put a little sunshine into life you know?

Anyways that was a great chapter, I can't wait for the angst to hit full force. Poor Harry. Keep up the wonderful work and update soon.

Just a couple little details.

I'm not sure about this but shouldn't the word 'sites' be 'sights'?

In the following sentence 'When he was convinced he was ready, he removed his fingers with his cock.' shouldn't 'removed' be 'replaced' instead?

And in '
