My favourite story of today's entries, I thought this story stood far above the competition. I loved the tarot spread you laid out, the care you took with your language, and the perfect characterisations that allowed Harry and Draco's relationship to make sense -- something that I've seen rushed in so many of the other entries. This is a story I'll definitely look forward to reading more than once. Thank you!

OH. MY. GOD.

this is so good.

that is all i can say. i have savoured this all day. reading slowly and taking regular breaks because it is SO good and i've wanted it to last as long as possible. this is just plain PERFECT!

mystery author, i don't know who you are, but i would surely marry you in a heartbeat and never regret it!

i love this. absolutely love it. thank you so much for everything you put into it. it shows.

*is in awe*

	I very much liked the way that you set up the changes wrought by the war and brought Harry slowly and surely towards open opposition and defiance, rather than just staying silent. And, especially, that the end of the story was just the beginning of their relationship. (Reply to this)
