Yay! That was exciting. Now they're both against the other with only Narcissa knowing half... Yay!

This story is SO AWESOME. I'm spell bound with every word and every chapter. This chapter was no exception. This is gonna get really really messy. Harry is deluding himself if he thinks this will be over in the 2 week deadline Narcissa gave. I think Narcissa will have to eat her strict order a bit once she sees how things are developing between these two. I hope she doesn't just go in and break Harry's face in front of Draco, then again, I can see Harry ditching Draco at the end of two weeks out of fear of losing everything but I HOPE hope hope that Draco starts to replace Metamorphasis as the center of Harry's world. I know I"m being foolish in thinking all of that can occur in two weeks. But, at least, perhaps, Draco can become more meaningful to Harry to the point where he has to seriously figure out a way to keep his business and Draco. I don't see how you're gonna pull Harry out of this without him getting hurt either way and at least he's aware that he'll be hurt but I don't think he's ready at all. I'm so rambling because you've got me thinking a thousand different thoughts. I LOVE how Draco knows he can win Harry over, and in the end that may be what finally pushes Harry out of the closet either on his own or by way of Narcissa trying to intervene. I wonder how Lucius would react if he knew? OK, and I have to just comment on his performance for Narcissa, hilarious! I wonder if Harry even knows how much truth was in that story. Sometimes I think he buries himself so deep in the lies he creates that he's out of touch with his own truth. I can't wait to see how Draco plans to seduce him and how Harry can resist. GREAT UPDATE : )

Interesting chapter. I'm surprised that Narcissa bought Harry's lie. I supposed I'm just used to the real Harry but still... Harry seemed a little too pathetic, no?

Draco Malfoy is on the warpath. Not exactly full blown yet, and not with all of the anger and violence he has at his disposal, but preparing to do a mental battle nonetheless. I believe that Harry may have put entirely too much focus on keeping Narcissa placated, and may find Draco is sliding in through the back clasp of his mask. I don't think it will be that easy for Draco to find out the truth about Harry and all of his many different brother, and sister, personalities, but I do think that if Harry isn't more careful, it will be easier than it should be. I can't wait for the update,
Thank you,

about #11...

I'm going to start calling you Superwoman the way you and another authoress crank
out these stories, I can't remember what I've said in each review...I need a break.

Anyway, as they say, ''the plot thickens...'' and Harry is slowly stumbling into a
HUGE mess I see, he just doesn't realize it. I'm not EVEN going to second guess you
on what it is you'll do next, 'cause all you'll do is throw a wrench in our thinking
and then bring it back on track. :-/

Now, the way I see it, if Draco wasn't such a Malfoy, he would explode with justifiable anger on the deception, but since he is, he will just simmer with it.

BUT, exploding IS good. :-)

Isn't it AMAZING how folks LOVE to guess what's going to happen next in this story?
I don't think I've ever done this before, but then again this story IS more
involving than most I've..and other people..have read, because of the simple fact
of the deception that WILL end up hurting people.

Well, enough rambling thoughts, I'm tired..and will chill out for a couple of days.


PS: I loved your depiction [is that right?] of Narcissa, though Harry's reaction to
her discovery had me...cringing in a way. I just didn't like him appearing so 'weak'
before her. No, Harry is the type who faces problems with eyes forward and
'guns a-blazing'! But of course he had his reasons. Blah!

I'm very curious about how Harry will pull off breaking his arrangement with Draco. He can just disappear-- but that won't stop Draco! I really like-- and yet almost loath this Harry-- all at once! You've made him into such a trickster. I love him. Nice job with bending his character without breaking it. Great chapter-- looking forward to seeing more.

I have absolutely fallen in LOVE with this awesome story!!!! Please, please, please update again soon!!!! OMG... I love the chemistry between Harry and Draco! I always felt that they had something between them... even in the books... They can't fight all the time, honestly! Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that your fic is extraordinary!!!! I also wanted to know if you had some kind of list or something of people who are alerted to the updating of this fic? I would like to be added if there is! Thanks!

Another great chapter. Harry is starting to weave quite the tangled web! I wonder how long it will be before Draco finds out. And will he find out before Harry knows about it? I also think Draco may end up beating himself at his own game. With trying to seduce Brian, will he end up developing deeper feelings for him, or will he find out about Harry's identity before that happens?

I just had a thought, when you started to write this, did you at
one point think about doing this...Brian/Harry or Brian (Harry)
when he had to go into his 'role' & then do just 'Harry' when
his personality started to slip through?

That way we would know when the fine line between playing
a role & being himself got crossed..or have you done that already
and I forgot?

about #10....

you know in the back of my mind, I had a feeling that Harry displaying his power would trigger something in someone, I kind of leaned towards Draco than Narcissa,
but it makes sense it would be her first.

*says very haughtily* After ALL, she is a woman and women
sense these things.

:-)

Oh, by the way, I liked the 'game' that Draco & 'Brian' played back
and forth [..and it IS a game..], kind of makes you wonder...well
it makes me think once Draco gets over 'the betrayal' he will be
feeling soon, will he accept how right he & Harry are for each other?

After all, these are no longer boys, but men...and I have this HUGE feeling that something long-term could come from this. Since they are adults now and have an
idea [somewhat] of what it is they want.

okay, enough rambling thoughts...
