I don't know how long its been since I last read or reviewed this, but I've been rereading your work lately, and just had to mention that this remains one of the most original, intriguing, heart-wrenching and *beautiful* fanfics I've ever had the pleasure of reading. And even though I can't be buggered to tear myself away from your work long enough to actually log in, I'm still here all the same, reading and appreciating and crying over and just generally *loving* your writing.

Ooo another good story. I just about moved onto the sequel but I remembered at the last minute that I forgot to write a review for this one. I doubt I'll say anything that hasn't already been said, but here goes. You did an awesome job taking the effects the spell would have on Harry and twisting his dispair and loneliness until it's eaten away at him. Awesome in a "that's incredibly sad" way. It was also cool to watch Draco beat his head against the curse until he figured it out. That's the kinda shit that gets things done... and causes brain damage... Well anyway, there are a couple mediwitches I'd like to get my hands on, but I suppose this instance really isn't their fault. Still should have them investigated for other such behavior. Your descriptions of souls is really amazing. I saw you made a comment to someone else about how much work you put into it. The work really paid off. Okay, now on to the sequel! Yay!

Wonderful story . . . I had actually clicked the sequal first but then read that I should read this one first, so I did and was not disappointed. I just finished the sequal and shall squeal my joy in that review as well.
Absolutely amazing how you make this story come so alive.

Ch. 2 I haven't read any of the HP novels except book 1 so some of the terms here are bewildering. But your story is coherent enough so that I can piece together the meanings.

It is also incredibly riveting. I didn't need the definition of the Cassandra curse since I know who Cassandra is. But the idea of such a curse as this is fascinating. I look forward to reading how Harry handles this and how Draco deals with a Harry who's constantly "lying" to him.

Ch. 11 That was beyond beautiful. It was transcendant. Of course, I was amused by Draco's thoughts and feelings as he looked upon the curse. He grudgingly admires Harry's stubbornness in having lived with this curse for so long without going crazy. But he refuses to retreat because he doesn't want anyone to think he's weaker than Harry is! That's kinda funny but typical Malfoy, I suppose.

It's too bad he wasn't able to shatter the curse completely. Somehow I don't think his word, of all the people, will be enough for them to think Harry is better. But I'll just have to check the rest of the story, won't I?

Ch. 13 Great story! Although I am rather disappointed that Harry give in so quickly just from a few soft-spoken words. I wanted him to run and give Draco a real chase for his money. :D I'll enjoy reading the sequel.
