Wonderful! I don't know how you do it, but it's always fab! I love your characterizations of Harry and Draco. Draco's vulnerabilities just come through so well. Great story!

Rereading this beauty :) Damn, they are perfect together! *happy sigh*I tried using the first half of this (with all the essay writing) as an inspiration to finally tackle the paper I've been postponing doing, but now they changed the purpose of their alcove to an infinitely more fun one, writing the paper sounds so much less appealing.

I died of cute! Draco's vulnerabilities are angsty and real, yet at the same time funny and ridiculous! You always seem to find the right balance. I grinned so much and so hilarious with the hair obsession! Really adore you and your writing. Thank you so much for this, it was so good.

Loved the develope of Draco in this usually post war people still write Draco as being a massive schlong but I feel like you captured his regret and all that of what he did without explaining it in massive detail. Also a really adorable story loved it!!

Ah your fics are such unadulterated joy. The writing was gorgeous, the Potterverse perfect, the brilliant knotgrass was a compelling trope to further the theme of Harry's hair! I adore your harry and draco. The humour in your fics as well always lifts them way above the herd, the big scene on the pitch had me laughing so loudly I nearly woke up my 3 year old. Thanks for writing this

Haha! Of course they'd both go back to that spot just to see each other... Oh, boys... :DHarry admitting he's gay only to Draco, the hair, the badge, the inpromptu nakedness... Ha, Faith, you know how to make me happy! <3I liked this very much! Thank you for sharing!

"Potter, I'm referring to your newfound desire to shag blokes." He frowned. "Whose instructions were you following, then?""It's not newfound, exactly. I had fantasies about blokes before." Potter seemed to drift off for a moment — probably having a shockingly inappropriate fantasy right then and there — and then he blinked and added, "They were Snape's instructions.""Snape instructed you to fantasise about blokes?"↑ Oh my gosh, I'm dying here. xD"You're a complete prick, you know that?"Draco had to laugh. "Luckily for me, you like pricks."↑ *wheezing*"Due to obvious reasons, I changed them to say, 'Potter sucks.'"The indignant protest Draco expected failed to happen. Potter's lips parted and then, amazingly, he blushed.↑ *asthma-attacking*Draco Vanishing Harry's clothes... omg, I was at the edge of my seat, hoping he was just having a bad dream. O.O Poor both of them!! D: But even so, LOL at Draco's crazy fixation on Harry's strand of hair nonetheless. xD Even so, Draco's confession, oh, the pain it caused my poor, asthma-attack-weakened heart!Potter was smiling. "Will you really buy me a carriage full of treacle tarts?""I will," Draco vowed. "Eventually. One at the time. If I buy you so many at once, you'll eat them all and get sick."↑ Pffft. XD Practical!"I'd better go rescue your bag, then," Potter said, and then went and did just that. He was good at that sort of thing. It made Draco want to kiss him all the time. It was really quite pathetic.But then Potter was nearly eaten by the grass, and Draco had to rescue him, which was kind of pathetic of Potter too, so Draco thought this thing between them might just work out in the end.↑ *dying again*""Countless?" Potter's tongue peeked out to give Draco a teasing lick.Draco tried not to squirm too much. A moan escaped him. It was too hard to lie at this point. "It's hard to count zeroes."↑ PFFFT, nice, Draco. I really love his way of twisting his own words here. 8D Brilliance!Your ending, also, is, of course, absolutely perfect. ♥

Oh my goodness, I loved this so much!!One thing I absolutely *loved* that I don't really think I've seen in the past is the magic you used - I loved the bouncing hovering desks, and the bouncing bed, and the fact that Harry almost got eaten by the knotgrass! I was reading an article about writing Harry Potter fanfiction, and the author was stressing the importance of making sure to keep some of the magic going in the story, and even making up some of your own, so it really feels like you're in that world. I think that's something that has been missing from a lot of HPDM fic I've read, and so I was so pleased and excited to see it in this story.I laughed so much! I liked watching Harry and Draco's relationship play out - it grew from something tentative to something (semi?)sure and sweet. And I CANNOT believe he vanished Harry's clothes like that! I covered my eyes on that part - I could not believe that had just happened, lol! But it made for a great plot twist, and I'm happy everything got resolved :)I really loved reading this! Again, I was so happy to see the magic in your story! It kept everything fun and exciting :)

Loved this! Draco's blurry-faced-fantasy-guy was hilarious :) As always, your characterizations are spot-on and your Hogwarts world is just right. I love your stories - they're feel-good-make-me-grin stories that aren't at all fluffy, which imho is not any easy feat to pull off. Another enthusiastic bravo!
