JKR owns anything that is obviously hers. I own the rest.
Credits (in more or less whichever order springs to mind):
To Manda0610, for being at least just as horny as I am and not realizing that getting credits from me is not actually a good thing since I hate it when something brilliant wasn’t my idea. But as it turns out she provided me for the basis of what then became two clever (if I may say so myself) plot devices that I took and ran with. And also for scowling at me for bashing Ron. She seems to remain unconvinced that it’s Draco who bashes Ron. Honest! It is!
To Maz, for offering himself as a willing test subject whenever I needed to research something. Thanks, honey, your… uh… sacrifices are duly noted.
To MissNibbles, for disagreeing with me on principle. We have never disagreed this much on a fic before, I don’t think, but I suppose that we’re just culturally very different. And it did help me to get some perspective where perhaps some was needed.
To Svelte Rose, for making me what’s sure to be another gorgeous banner for this, although it will be just a tiny bit delayed. I hardly gave the girl any warning, you know. giggles madly for reasons unknown to the unsuspecting reader
To Margot Le Faye, for being an expert at stroking my ego and being very constructive at the same time. It’s always a pleasure to get feedback from her. And amazingly enough, she keeps sending it even though I don’t always follow her advice! I have to love that.
To kerri240879, for being speedy in her judgments and sharing her own delicious bites with me. I do believe I’m addicted. And, honey, I do know about the ending… what can I say? I’m a tease. ;)
To TomFeltonIsKindaHot, for saying I should get horny more often. Even though she doesn’t feel herself to be very constructive, through her, I get to see exactly what effect I have on people. And hey, if I can turn her on, then it has to be good ;)
