My name is Akalei Kanakele Kahookele (Ah-kuh-lay-ee Can-uh-kelly Kuh-ho-oh-kelly). I currently live in Utah, USA. I received an Associate of Science degree in May 2011 in English - Creative Writing. I'm married a great guy that I met at college in our freshman year. He's a Computer Science major. He's a great guy, but he's mine. 
So you can't have him. 
He graduates May 2013.
I have decided to discontinue posting on this site due to personal reasons. I have my fics posted on other sites, mainly Forever Fandom (http://www.foreverfandom.net). What I have posted already will remain. Thank you for reading and reviewing as you already have in the past. I appreciate all your support.

Reviews for Countdown
Interesting premise. I like the countdown and the various means that D went through. And heaven knows that in 17 years they definitely should know each other. Very well done. I like that you have them true to themselves, though strictly speaking OOC (since this is totally non-epilogue compliant). BTW - I tend to like EWE stories best.

Thank you for the thoughtful review. I find that someone who reviews with something as you have is much more helpful and meaningful than "I loved it!" Although, I love those too. /grin\ I realize that the timeline is a little long, but I thought it fit with the personalities that I gave the boys. Thanks for reading, and I'm glad you enjoyed it. ~dpa06~

Have you thought of a companion story? There are a lot of Weasley's in this one. What do they think? How does Draco set it up? It couldn't have been easy. I can bet there is a lot of humor involved in getting various people to agree to his plan. Does he tell them what is at the end of the road? Is that what makes them agree? So many questions... *sigh...
Response from darkpyroangel06 (Author of Countdown)
Those are all terribly good ideas. I actually may take one or more of them and make companion stories. The thought never really occurred to me, but I think (now that I've read it) I will write companion stories. You are an amazing reviewer. I've never had someone get me thinking like this before. Thank-you, Sara Lady Dalian, seriously. ~dpa06~
This is absolutely wonderful. I love how Draco knows his lover so much that he can predict every words or actions that come out of his little notes. I long for that kind of love one day.
There is just one thing that you can help me with. I didn't really understand that sentance : "It was a gold band, with ruins of love and fidelity etched into it." ruins? The only meaning I know for that word is not something I would associate with love and fidelity. But not being a native speaker prevents me sometimes to understand fully what one wants to suggest. Care to help me in this please? *beg on my knees*

Ruins are probably what you are thinking of. What I meant to write (and will go change in just a few moments) was Runes. Runes are symbols (not unlike Egyptian pictographs) that mean things. Ancient Runes is also a class that is offered at Hogwarts. I believe Hermione takes it one year, or several, in the books.http://www.hplex.info/hogwarts/classes/classes.html#RunesThat's the site I go to for any Harry Potter questions. It's called the HP Lexicon, and has ALL Harry Potter knowledge according to the books and movies. It does differentiate between the two.Thank you so much for pointing this out to me! I can't believe I made such a mistake... Thank you for reading and for reviewing. And for English not being your native language, you speak/write better than some people I know who've been reading/writing/speaking English all their lives. Keep up the great work, and thanks (again!) for the review! ~dpa06~

I love this immensely. I don't know what the next reminiscent big parts of their life will be but I guess Draco is going to ask Harry for a wedding or for a child. And if it's not one of them you're more creative than I would dream of. Hope for the second part ASAP.

Wow, I don't even know what else there could be to surprise Harry with. However, you'll just have to wait to find out if it's a baby or a wedding. Thanks for review! ~dpa06~

you might want to check your french spellings, like "garçon" and "maitre d' "
Response from darkpyroangel06 (Author of Countdown)
Yes, I've been told that just recently. Please forgive me; I took Spanish not French. Although half my heritage is French... Anywho. I am working on changing those throughout the sites I have posted on. Thanks for telling me, and thanks for reading. ~dpa06~
