Yeah, I like it. Ginny's Healing abilities are awesome, if Harry can get (it) up after two such blows to the northern head. This isn't the only instance I've seen of vanquishing the Dork Lord by "coupling pleasure to the scar" -- DrT has an extended work posted at restrictedsection.org -- but it's fun neverthelesa.

It was interesting. Creative way to kill a dark lord. I defiitely wouldn't have agreed with your summary of PWP. It was a good story though. Eh, I am a sucker for the romantics.

Hmm, I thought it was to short. :p
You can do Chapter 2 with awards, weddings, Fudge bashing... Getting hermione to join them... Ron can marry Umbridge.

I take it you want brutal honesty, and I'm just tired enough (and sick enough) to try and comply.
First of all, if the challenge demanded PWP naughtiness without any kind of a coherent thread running thru it, it's a failure, as you did actually shoehorn a plot into it. Second, if a plot is allowed, you would have been better off coming up with something new, as opposed to what feels like a handful of your older H/Hr plots after being run thru a Cuisinart. BORING!
Third, and this is what really bothers me the most about this piece, I thought your writing had evolved beyond the over-the-top, diabetes inducing treacliness of your earlier work, with its cavity-inducing sugar levels:
"Harry," she finally panted. "Please tell me the name of the woman who taught you that. I need to thank her."
"Ginevra Weasley," he said smugly, avoiding the temptation to stand and dance a victory dance. "She told me to pay attention to my lover to make sure I properly pleased her."
And that's just one example; the rest of the story is dripping with them. No, sorry to agree with the sizeable majority, but this is definitely not one of your better pieces.

I remember reading this some time back. Liked it then, and still like it now.
It may not be a great work of literature, but it was certainly entertaining enough to be very enjoyable.
How the people of the ficafest could have been so against it I'll never know.

Damn! My keyboard is covered in orange juice. As snape says the most inventive solution to the dark lord problem. That will teach me to read and drink at the same time.
Thankyou

*giggle*
I liked it...the Wizard of Oz references had me cracking up and I *LOVE* what happened to good ole Moldy-shorts.
The calming potion in the lemon drops thing was also hysterical...I've always wondered if they were doctored somehow...
Great job!

It's a nice story. I can't understand why you only got 2 positive reviews out of 50...
Were they obsessed with PWP stories or what?
IMO porn with plot is better than porn without plot. :)
Keep it up.

so fluffy and sweet I think i've gotten a cavity. I half expected Snape to cackle madly from the hospital bed. Thats what i would have done anyway.

The idiots who complained about this story should be tarred, feathered, and then fed to either Norbert or Fluffy.
Really was a different take on the usual "Harry makes love to a girl and kills Riddle" plot bunny. Any chances of talking you into writing something like this for Harry and Hermione or Harry and female Blaise? Or maybe Harry/Gabrielle?

Congratulations on such a good story. I enjoyed it - especially the part about 'Ding Dong, The Dark Lord's Dead' - I just started cracking up laughing when I read that. Keep up the good work.
