A Tale of Two Matchmakers by Kerichi
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Romance for three couples when Blaise and Luna use Shakespearean styled matchmaking to hook up Ginny and Draco. There's Much Ado about...something!
Nominated for a Quicksilver Quill for Best Romance-Non Canon 2007, 2008, and 2009. In 2010 mods changed the rules (they got tired of the same fics being nominated ^_~) so no more QQ hopes, but that's okay. No proof is needed that Draco/Ginny = love.
* Written before the HBP, this tale presents an alternate sixth year in which Dumbledore lives, Draco is more than a foil to Harry, and Blaise Zabini is a girl. I hope readers who ship Draco/Ginny will enjoy the story which includes dancing with faeries, Celtic and Norse mythology, school holidays in London and Spain, and loads of fantasy and romance. "Is this a kissing book?" (to quote the Princess Bride) Yes, it is. *
(Warnings were added for safety, due to brief allusions in later chapters, not graphic content.)
Date: 01/01/07 Title: Chapter 24: A Bump in the Road to Love
Oh wow! I think you're writing the "Blaise"-Draco-Blaise-Terry thing very well; little things getting larger and larger before breaking to a head. Although whether that was the head or not is a completely different matter. . .
Anyways, nice job. I really like this story. Before I read it I really disliked it because I was totally against Draco/Ginny and it was always updated (it wouldn't go away). But then finally, a couple weeks ago, I read it, and it amazing. Ginny would probably call me a "judgemental git" :D
Kate
Author's Response: Hi Kate! If you don\'t mind me being nosy, are you a H/G shipper, or a D/Hr reader? Just wondering. ^_^ Thank you so much for giving the story a chance! Made my New Year bright!
Very astute \'whether that was the head\'....more drama to come!
A real judgemental git wouldn\'t have read, period, just turned up their nose at the story, so thanks again for being open-minded! :)
Date: 01/07/07 Title: Chapter 25: Friends
Alright. I must say, LOVE Luna/Wesley. And the Princess Bride. I think I like Luna/Wesley is because Harry didn't pay Luna enough attention, and she needed to realize that. Oh, but I feel so bad for Blaise. But it's a good thing that Ginny-through-Draco-through-Snape interferred, since she was on a track to kill herself with exhaustion.
I'm hoping Terry and Blaise can have a real heart-to-heart soon. And you asked what shipper I am? I'm open to most, although I'm a steady D/Hr shipper. But I don't really mind in this fic, since you write it so nicely!
Kate
Author's Response: I\'m glad you\'re Luna/Wesley because Harry is paying attention to another \'girl\' next chapter and Luna has to watch it. (Opens her eyes)
They do have a heart to heart, and thank you for reading D/G when you fly another flag!
Valentine's Drama by LadyAlesha
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary:
Ron and Hermione are dating, well kind of anyway. With Valentine's Day upon them what will happen? Will they take the next step or will everything fall to pieces around them?
Winner of the Valentine's Day Challenge 'Love Is ...'

Aww, this is so sweet. And very canon, too, which is refreshing. Nice job!

What's Left of Me by annie
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: After a year in Azkaban, the day of Draco Malfoy's execution has finally arrived. As he makes the long journey from his prison cell to the execution room, he reflects upon what was and what could have been.
Date: 02/20/07 Title: Chapter 1: What's Left of Me
Wow. That was very powerful, and extremely sad. I really liked how Draco's prescense haunted his cell afterwards, and his proclamatin of love. However, I'm a little confused. Did Hermione change her name, or did no one recognize her? But that seems unlikely, being as it was that Draco was "killed" for murdering her husband. So that just confused me a little bit. But besides for that, it was absolutely lovely.

Oooh. I like this. Very creative; I haven't read, or even heard of, any fics that goes into more detail about Petunia's suspicious behaviour in Book 5. I really hope Harry gets his wand back!
Not Only a Granger by ferporcel
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: [WIP] Post-HBP. Eleven years after the end of the war, Hermione finds herself in a delicate situation when her only son leaves for Hogwarts and threatens her most guarded secret: that he’s not only a Granger, but also a Snape! SS/HG.
Date: 08/17/06 Title: Chapter 12: Chapter 12: Wisdom
I love this story!!!!!
Author's Response: Thanks! :0) Keep reading and revieiwing.
Little Loony by miss padfoot
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Ever wondered what turned Luna into a loony? One-shot.
Date: 07/18/07 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
Preethi! Overall, I really enjoyed this story. At times, I felt that Luna was acting a bit young for her age, but other than that she was lovely. I especially enjoyed reading about Mr. Lovegood. We’ve always considered that he was the “weird” one, but it was nice reading it the other way, where Mrs. Lovegood was a little different. Also, reading about the effect and control Luna has over her father was funny, and very refreshing. This is the first fic in which I’ve read the Quibbler being started because Luna wanted her father to publish stories proving magical creatures existence!
I really enjoyed this, Preethi, and had fun discussing it in the SBBC.
Kate
Author's Response: Kate! I\'m so glad you enjoyed this story. :D Oh, and I\'m thrilled you liked reading about Mr Lovegood too. Thanks for the awesome review, dear! *huggles*
Green Is the Color of Rage by MoonysMistress
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Watch how James Potter's relationship with Lily Evans changes when he employs a little bit of maturity. Response from Moony of Ravenclaw to Poem Challenge #2: "Rebirth, the phoenix dies and is reborn again. Isn't it amazing how beauty can blossom from something that begins so ugly."
Date: 02/11/07 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
Ha ha! This is quite humorous and entertaining. I haven't seen a poem talking about James' transition yet, so this was definetely something new!
I must say, I really like your wording. Words such as "sage," "ranscendent goddess," and "ire" add such depth to your poem. Not only words, but the rhyming scheme does as well. It is very fun.
However, one thing that could make it better is showing (or telling) how James changes. I mean, how does he "gain maturity" and "wisen up"?

Cliché Nation by just_the_contrary
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: A compilation of the most commonly used Harry Potter clichés in the fandom. Features Angsty!Harry, Sweet!Draco, Head Dorms, sudden romances in the forms of Ron/Hermione, Harry/Ginny and of course, Draco/Hermione, because what's a cliché without them?
The Marauders also make an appearance in this fic, including Lily/Lily's best friend/Lily's other best friend.
Warning: mention of hippopotamuses inside.
Chapter Five is up! The story is done. Also, thank you to everyone who nominated this neatly tied bundle of ridiculousness in the QQ awards, I really appreciate it!
Date: 09/07/06 Title: Chapter 1: A Collection of All-Sorts
I LOVE THIS FIC.
although I haven't reviewed yet, so I don't know why. but I'm looking forward to the Voldie/Harry friendship!
ha ha. it's so funny!
Author's Response: Oh, wow! I\'m glad you love this fic. Mainly because I wrote it. Harry/Voldie friendship, yes. But doesn\'t that seem ironic as they\'re going to become Aurors? Yes, I know, wierd. But that\'s what this story is. Thank you so much.
Make Me Better by guiding ray of sunlight
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Rose Ivory and Alex Moss are best friends. They are always together. Well, almost always.
But things are about to change for Rose. Her entire world is turned up-side-down, and all she can do is wait to see what falls...
The story takes place in the years between the fall (or not quite fall) of Voldemort and Harry's first year.
Rating is for future chapters (The far future)....
Date: 02/02/07 Title: Chapter 1: Prologue
Interesting! I like Rose so far; she seems the shy, quiet type who is secretly quite brave. I was wondering if you could clarify for me, though: is this a next Gen fic? When there was the boy named "Parkinson" I assumed it was the son of Pansy or a relative, but is he just a relative of Pansy's?
I like it so far, I really do. But you are asking for no sugar coating, so. . .I think you need to work more on britisicms. Now, there are enough britisicims for it to pass throuh the queue, obviously. However, and I'm American, so I may be wrong, but I believe "'shut your hooter, pea-brain!'" and "he looked like a nice enough kid" are very American. I'm very sorry if I'm wrong, but I'd just like to point that out to you.
Keep the chapters coming!
Kate - Knight of the Turnip Talbe
Author's Response: This is actually a fic about the years right after Voldemort was first vanquished and right before the Trio come to Hogwarts-Charlie and Bill\'s time...Parkinson id Pansy\'s older brother / cousin...haven\'t decided yet...
I\'ll be sure to work on britisicms...thanks for the tip!

The Silver Charm Bracelet by charmed_heart25
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: If your BF/GF fails to turn up at your date, what do you think happened? Most of the time, we think it's "just not meant to be." Maybe there's more to it than it seems. You never know. But don't say it's "just not meant to be."
Date: 08/17/06 Title: Chapter 1: The Silver Charm Bracelet
YES! YES! YES!!!!

The Harry Potter Literary Storm by Mind_Over_Matter
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: The Harry Potter Literary Storm has caused quite the sensation around the world, JK Rowling’s magnificent series of books touching the hearts of people of all ages. But what if Harry Potter was never written by JK Rowling in the first place? What if another genius was behind it?
Many thanks to the fantastic people who nominated this story for the Quicksilver Quills: Best Humour Fiction award. I'm truly flattered.
Chapter Seven, Part Five is now up - yes, that is the final chapter!
Date: 11/24/06 Title: Chapter 9: Chapter Seven, Part One: Publicity, Flashbacks and a Deal
Very nice! I absolutely love this story. It's funny, original, and brings in the added "What if?" And I've never read a "what if Jo didn't exist?" before. I don't know why it's not one of my favorites. . .well, now it is! (I've been reading this since the beginning).
The Order of Ravenclaw House Elves
Author's Response:
Well, thankin\' ye kindly, and I\'m glad you\'ve stuck around through this extended ditty of a tale. By the way, good luck with the Orders
Which sounds a little odd. *Blink*
Author's Response: Oh, and apparently this was the hundredth review. So... *Throws streamers*
The Dark Lord's Blog by Schmerg_The_Impaler
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •
Summary: What does Lord Voldemort do in his spare time? Well, that's an excellent question. Who would have known that the Dark Lord has a blog? (He also has a loyal following of readers, most of whom are Death Eaters and who post their comments.) Voldemort dispenses advice on everything from murder methods to germ protection to Power Rangers to shoes, and gives an account of the life of an evil overlord. But is he posting too much personal information online? And will Harry read it and find out more about the Dark Lord than Voldemort ever intended? Read and see.
WARNING: Extremely OOC behaviour from almost all.
RUNNER-UP in the 2007 Quicksilver Quills Awards for Best Humour fic! Also nominated like 21 times, because apparently my readers are as insane as I am!
Date: 09/29/06 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1: Don't Try This At Home
Ha ha! This is so funny! But you might want to make the paragraphs a little shorter. I'm having trouble reading each paragraph entirely. But I love the comments, and the E-Crucios!
Author's Response: Ah, sorry about the spacing! I can\'t do html at all, and I have no idea what I\'m doing on the submission forms. I have a suspicion that that\'s why some of my other stories have been rejected before. I don\'t know what and and
Author's Response: Ooh, apparently I used html when I was typing that without meaning to, and completely messed up my response! I was saying I didn\'t know what all of the little html symbols meant...
Date: 10/25/06 Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3: R.A.B. and Romance
Dear Mr Dark Lord Sir Whatever You're Calling Yourself Now:
YOU FELL FOR A GRYFFINDOR??????? Now, there's nothing wrong with that, of course. I actually like a good many Gryffindors It just seems so, oh, I don't know, uncharacteristic.
Unless this is where your hatred of Gryffindor comes from?
Author's Response: He was head boy. She was head girl.
Can I make it any more obvious?
They shared a dorm, which is cliche.
What more can I say?
*Dun dun dun dun* SHE WAS A GRYFFINDOR! SHE THOUGHT TOM WAS A BORE! PLUS ALSO KIND OF WEIRD AND LAME! POOR TOMMY\'S ONLY KISS CAME FROM A BASILISK! HE ONLY HAD HIMSELF TO BLAME!
Sorry, Tom, but you missed out.
Minnie\'s Dumbledore\'s girl now.
There is more than meets the eye
You have a mangled soul inside.
Too bad you never caught on
Slytherins don\'t turn her on.
You\'re just sad and have no friends.
This is how the story ends.
Rip of Avril Lavigne? Me? Never!

Ha ha ha!!! I love this!!!
Lord Mouly-Shorts (how I refer to Voldy) is quite funny. And I like the whole hit list thing. Can't wait for the next chapter!
Author's Response: Ah, thank you! I call him Mouldy-Shorts, too... and if you read Chapter Three of the story, you\'ll see that we\'re not the only ones who call him that!
The next chapter be up!!

*Completed*
*Quote from The Epilogue*
Suddenly Harry was kissing her as if he couldn’t resist the temptation. There was a kind of frenzy to the kiss at first, a kind of desperate need, but it melted into something soft and sweet and gentle, a promise of a future when kisses would never be limited. When they broke apart he rested his forehead on hers, sprinkling a few affectionate butterfly kisses across her face. “I love you,” he murmured.

Oh! This is so sweet! I really like the idea. I mean, 83? Goodness gracious, that's a random number!
