I'm new to your story so I didn't have to endure the time without you updating, but please don't make me suffer it. I have fallen in love with your story and I'm a faithful reviewer. Plus im psychotic and spend every moment on the computer reading ^_^ Please update again soon. I can't wait to see how this story ends.

I found this story because it had been rec'd by SoftObsidian74. ^^ It is so utter fabulous and unique in alot of ways that is surprising for a story like this.

First off, I really am surprised how much I enjoy the side notes, the paragraphs of desription or the paragraphs of explanation. Usually dialogue is my favorite thing in a story, and while your story is certainly not lacking in good dialogue, I find those paragraphs absolutely interesting and compelling me to read on in a way they can't always do.

This open relationship they have, I love the tension and the freedom you descibe in it. Even more than that, though, I love the recent chapters and Harry's questioning of hopeful acceptance of closing off their relationship for only the two of them. It is terrible the way things are developing in that whatever groups is out there thinks to turn the Ministry officials and the public against them by making their relationship(s) scandalous, and also hurting one of Harry's closest friends. I certainly hope they get their comeuppance for such manuevers.

I'm also really enjoying how you write the depth of H/D's relationship. With all that is going on it is nice that, while they worry from time to time that this isn't a lasting relationship that they are worthy of, that there isn't any real soap opera drama where a split occurs over the simplest of misunderstandings. Of course, with their new closed off relationship impending, this might change a bit, but likely it will be for the better.

I'm really enjoying this story, and I hope you still intend to continue it.

Oh, this is wonderful! My friend Softobsidian74 recommended it on LJ, and I must say, it is so much more than I had expected! I especially love the vulnerabilities that both Harry and Draco display, yet their strength is not diminished in the least. I am so accustomed to either reading about a needy Harry and strong silent Draco or visa versa. That Harry and Draco can be both, is so refreshing. I can't wait to read what comes next!

this is an AMAzing fic! I was turned onto it by softobsidian's post over on lj, and i'm very happy about it. sorry that i didn't review every chapter like i am want to do, but i dont like aff's review stuff, so you can't just go onto the next chapter and i'm very lazy like that, lmao. but yes, i love your plot, i havent seen anything quite like it, and i love fresh fics, and the smut is very shmexy.

Happy for the update and what a lovely chapter to boot. I must say you just made me fall for the new character, Dodd, it seems you have a talent for this, first Syl and now Dodd. Hopefully, Dodd won't have an unfortunate ending like Syl, in fact I totally love the idea of a threesome with Harry/Draco/Max, even though Draco (glares) and Max (sneer) do not agree. Ahh, but how fun is it that they both want Harry, a Harry sandwich, lol. Anyway, ignore my poor humour, I await your next chapter a bit impatiently ;)

An excellent read! I can't wait for the next chapter... I love how you've got all these angles, all these elements coming into play... very well thought out, and put together! Brilliant plot and wonderful lemons! Your works outshine much of what I've read to date! (And I read ALOT!) Cookies for you! -Sarah

Come on Rettavex, I want (to watch) Draco to find the reassurance he needs......
All of your stories are marvelous, and this one is too intriguing to stop here in the middle. I check regularly for updates, so don't disappoint your biggest fan. Post a new chapter or two....or ten. I have never beta'd, but if it would keep this story moving, I'd be willing.
