Really kept the tension going!

This pairing isn't one I would have ever imagined, but now it haunts me. The emotional depth, their connection borne of being overlooked—how my poor heart clenched reading over the scenes in the orphanage that Ron saw and felt so incredibly deeply. I felt so unutterably sorry for both of them. Thank you for sharing this brilliant one shot.

wow this is amazing

Well damn I loved this!

Wow...that was intense! And amazing! I can totally see that happening if it weren't for the fact that Hermione, at least, would likely never have let Ron go that long wearing the locket. She would have had at least an intuition about Ron I think. That was a very gripping story! Thanks for sharing it!

I always felt that Ron weasley is one of the most underappreciated characters in the HP fandom so thank god you wrote this and gave us a deeper glimpse into his heart!
Wow this was beautifully just beautifully written. Stunning from beginning to end. This is the only Tom/Ron story I'v read but you had me rooting for the pair when they were in the forest of his dream. I totally got fooled by the horcruxe and tom, just like Ron did! I thought Tom might actually like or care about Ron...but then he proved he was Voldemort all along by trying to control Ron's mind after he gained his trust and then making ron kill harry. I don't suppose ron couldn't have lived with himself if he had killed harry, he really does love harry to risk his life tirelessly for him throughout his life.
Anywyas, amazing story, a lot of food for thought in what really happened when Ron wore that horcruxe! I think Tom/Voldemort is smart enough and manipulative enough to use more than just Ron's love for Hermione, but so much more to control Ron and try to lull him into his grasp. Fantastic!
I really really hope you write another tom/hermione story or even just a one shot, I think you are one of the best Tom Riddle writers, you just do his character so well and it's amazing each time to read your characterization :)

I am not a fan of Ron as he is written in canon, and I feel like this fic really highlights some of reasons why he's not as...idk the word for it...likeable? in the books. We never got to see Ron's heart and what he overcame; we saw his shortcomings but not the struggles to overcome them but were just kinda told he did. Thank you so much for fleshing him out and giving him the attention his character deserves.

There’s nothing more satisfying than seeing some out there fanfic premise and then it being actually executed in a true Tim Gunn make it work moment. Bravo, you somehow managed ron and Tom having believable chemistry.

wow loved it, like it’s almost a little random but actually makes a lot of sense ? and now I feel like I have to read about a bajillion Ron fics so thanks for that haha

What is this ridiculous, beautiful piece of art, and why do I love it so? I could see this happening. Tom Riddle Jr was a seductive man. Many people forget this in light of Voldemort's utter lack of charisma.

Damm. Just-damm. I haven’t read anything this good in ages. It’s awesome. I just- I’m speechless. This is simoly amazing.

Wow, wow, wow, wow, WOW. You wrote a thing of beauty. The parallels between Ron and Riddle are so beautifully, gradually developed, so mesmerizingly real - really well done!

I enjoyed the other Horcrux piece that you'd written; you caught on to a small but really exploitable bit of Cannon and reworked it into something so cool. The Mirror of Erised portions, transitioning to the dreams, was a great concept. Anyway,I have zero criticism, and just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed this and can't wait to see what you come up with next.

This was so brilliantly dark and in fact a good character sketch of Ron.

THIS was what the book actually missed and you sort of filled in an important gap.

Well worth the read, thank you!

Beautifully, hauntingly written. A great character study on Ron, who I feel like doesn't get enough credit for the insecurities he's overcome.

Wow, this is stunning
