I liked your story. I am reading all of your stories one by one actually.
I do have a question though.
How can Astoria not know who Hermione is?
That was hard fact to swallow for me. Ron and Hermione were by Harry's side for way too long for anybody who ever read Daily Prophet or even lived among wizards to know about them. They are basically too famous for introductions anymore.

Nice! It is also very nice to see that Hermione wouldn't stop to the levels that Draco used to

You really think of such neat connections.

At least Hermione's not quite as corrupt as Ron (or maybe she just took a liking to sweet Asteria), but it was very unprofessional of her to inspect someone for whom she felt personal animosity. I don't believe for a moment that she went there without intending malice, whatever she tells herself. Of course, that's par for the course in the wizarding world - but Hermione was brought up Muggle. She should know better.

Well, Ron is only continuing a family tradition trying to put Malfoys in Azkaban-but I'm sure it's a bit annoying though sadly nothing can be done about it. The WW has been a place where who you know has long been far more important than actual laws, and that goes for both sides.

I am glad that Hermione is actually concerned about what is happening to Tilly than squashing the latest set of Malfoys, though. And if Ron really does leave her over her being overly fact-based, then he's going to be the loser.

And of course Draco misses Dobby...naming his owl with that elf's name was a nice touch.

I really enjoyed this story. It was fantastic! Astoria is pretty nice and I like how the owl is named Dobby :)

you know draco does have some points in this. great fic.

What a WONDERFUL fic!

Oh, oh that was so nice! The owl's name was adorable, and considering your bit about house-elves liking to dote on the children it makes it seem so sweet on Draco's behalf. I like how Asteria wasn't told about everyone Draco disliked or thought was beneath him, it really shows his character development to a decent enough guy. And I like how Asteria is completely stuck in my head over the other name now, just one oneshot and I'm convinced! And I quite like how Ron's personality in the background is still a bit immature, but how Hermione takes it in stride and can joke about it. Nice :)

Aw, they named the owl Dobby! i really did enjoy this.

Poor Dobby.

I really enjoyed reading this. The tension between Draco and Hermione was incredible, and you hit their characterization on the head. I had to lean back from the laptop while reading because the tension was so think and well laid.

Great work!

I absolutely LOVED this! Everything from the characterizations to the plot was perfect!

This was very well-written and enjoyable. I was a little confused about the whole "Dobby the Owl" thing for a while, but you cleared it up well. I liked reading about Hermione and Draco's stiffness with each other, it was amusing. I also liked that Draco has seemed to hide a lot of his enmities from his wife, especially with Harry and his friends. Asteria is certainly more than Draco deserves; but then again, maybe not. He seems to have changed quite a lot from who he was at Hogwarts, into a much better person. He's still not perfect though, and that was nice to see.
