grins at Fovea's antics and can totally understand where you've come from with putting off the last in wolf and fox series. You've got plenty on your plate atm and have every right to be a bit tired (honestly, i don't know how you manage to keep up with all you've got going on as it is.) Still, i look forward to it when you find some space and energy in your shedual.
draco is a bit erratic atm. I look forward to hearing what Draco asks.

Not much to say on this one.

1. So, I'll ask this...the name Fovea, where did that
come from? Was your bird named that?

2. At this point of the story, I can't see you utilizing
the 'game' I wanted you to have H & D play...sooo do you
think you could use it in some other story?

3. ...and what's the deal on the 'Fox & Wolf' trilogy???
I'm beginning to think you regret even starting it!

I am a big fan of (most of) your stories.
Even when it is a story line or premise that I do not typically enjoy, your outstanding writing style draws me in anyway.
For me, the biggest accomplishment in your fics, are the character portrayals. Harry's and Draco's characters are always so fitting and believable for each situtation you land them in.

"His Actium", though, while an outstanding story and far better than anything I could come up with myself, confuses the hell out of me. The main comments in the first chapters related to Harry's career choice are about him sleeping with so many people and what that makes him, rather than the effect his job has on the seduced victims. I find it just very hard to believe that Harry would, not seduce, but break people's hearts, especially when they might be innocent. This was touched upon in later chapters, but it is still hard for me to understand. The fact that Harry wants to hang Zabini for sth that he practices himself, I also find a bit strange.

What confuses me in the latest chapter is Harry's guilt concerning what he has done to Draco. I mean, Draco obviously knew what he was doing. It didn't seem as if Harry's real intentions transformed Draco in a sad little kitten. The following sentence I also do not really understand: "At some point, he has to take care of himself, and I have to let him." It makes Draco seem a lot weaker than in the previous two chapters. Do you mean that he is/can not take(ing) care of himself now? And that he needs Harry's help in order to do what exactly? I can't really imagine Draco thinking himself not worthy of material things, either...I mean, it is Draco.

I am not saying that I dislike Harry and Draco in this story, but that they...puzzle me. And I always like to understand everything ;-)

about #5...

Well, the good thing about this..Draco gave Harry
something to think about, so what else can Harry
do that would be worthwhile? DOES he have any particular
skills...maybe a bodyguard?

Hey :) This is Taragh McCarthy :) I'm actually on my account today ;D OMG I loved the last three chapters :D I knew that Draco was way too smart to be tricked like that!! :D I loved the sex scene and I'm glad that Harry is giving up being a Paid Whore ;) Hopefully, Draco will be able to forgive Harry and they can be together soon :D Can't wait to see the next part!! :DDD

It will be interesting to see how harry handles himself from here on out. and why Robards was so very fraantic to bring Malfoy in. I also doubt Draco will leave it at that. Keep your friends close... kind of thing and the best place to ensure Harry doesn't do anything dramatic would be under his watchful gaze. paranoid much. ^^

Ha...I gotta laugh. The words 'less temperamental' did
NOT apply to my bird, he was a dominant bastard and I
think I pissed him off when I got him. I think I took
him from his bondmate or something... :-/
**************************
about #4...

*does the giddy dance..in a chair* Oooo...that WAS
hot. Sexual foreplay is ALWAYS a good thing, I just
hope Harry gets a chance to do it right the next time.

...and now he's a bit 'tied up'. Well, I'm sure the
Auror in Harry will think of...something? O_o

Btw, how is the title of this story going to apply
within this story, especially with its meaning?

PS: I still want my game, I'm not going to let you
off the hook on this one, so get ta' thinkin'. :-)

About Ch 4:

This just gets better and better! I'm incredibly glad that Draco is going to put up a fight, I had my doubts for a whlie there. I can't wait to see how Harry gets out of this one!

Chapter 4:

Eeeeek! I didn't see that coming! I've been immersed in making fun of Twilight today, and the abrupt change to Harry Potter threw me a little, so I don't have anything useful to say here beyond I can't wait for the next chapter!

The scene was good, and not just because it was sex; I enjoyed Harry's reactions, how he's totally open with Draco and then Draco shocks the shit out of him. (Aha. I managed *something* pertinent.)
