I adore the world of HP.
Thanks for stopping by. I'm off to stir my cauldron.
Reviews for The Mutual Deal
<sign of relief> they've made up, it's cool - for now anyway. Great chapter, can't wait for the next one. Will the Grangers run into the Malfoys I wonder? Brilliant writing as always.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Lucius will visit the Grangers. Hehe!
This story is awesome! I have enjoyed it very much and I have to say that I was relieved to see that this wasn't the last chapter. I am anxious for more!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Thank you! I'm happy you like it! I do have just a bit more to put up for it. :)
This is getting better as it goes. I am so happy they worked things out and I am already looking forward to the next chapter ! *huggles Ms Southern*
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Thank you! The next chapter will be a bit surprising to some. I'll say no more here, but hehe! I can giggle. Meeting the parents is always interesting!
Awww.... great chappie They got their feelings really out in the open
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Yep, and about time too! I also wanted them to be up front in how they felt about the 'Lavender Episode' !
woo hoo make up great story. thankyou sweets
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
thank you!!!Glad you liked! Luring is with Nay by the way. :)
Response from pickles (Reviewer)
Cool beans!
Uh-oh, I’ll promise to never leave you - does that mean they're engaged now? So Draco has his own money stashed away, or is he really risking losing his inheritance? More, more, please!!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Hehe... You are quite clever, you know that? He does have money--interestingly enough, but between us, he'll not need it. Lucius has plans... I think they will be "bullied" into moving things along more than anything.
Great chapter. And just what is Lucius up to? *taps foot* He better not be a bad boy, or I'll have to spank him. “Yeah, sure. Go on and leave me here alone,” Ron said, sulking slightly… until he noticed Pansy entered the common room. “Er… right. See you later.” He stood and made his way over to her.This is my favorite part of the chapter. Very cute.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Thank you! I'm glad you are still enjoying it. Hehe... When he saw his woman, he took off. I feel bad for splitting them up in my other story. :)
Response from ancientgirl (Reviewer)
Nah, he just wants to have her to himself for a bit. It would be nice for them all to wind up being very close at the end though. You know, like years from now they all celebrate the holidays together and their kids grow up together and mushy stuff like that.
Oh Lucius always has plans of his own for Hermione. I am glad that Harry and Ron are trying to understand their friend and be supportive. That is more important than anything. Good chapter. -- B
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
I like that they are being "cool" too. I really like Lucius sometimes. He'll bully them a bit, but it's nothing angsty.
Awwww, they made up! I'm still mad at Draco for what he did with Lavender... she can be such a slut, you know? Maybe Lav should have an affair with Malfoy Sr.... breaking up Lucius and Narcissa's marriage. What say you on that? HA HA HA! ~Gin
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Hahaha! Is someone lost in RPG land? Teehee!! I do believe there are wedding bells for those two there! :)Draco: "But, Dad! You can't marry her! She went down on me, and if you two were married, she'd be my new mum... That's disgusting!"
Response from GinnyW (Reviewer)
Lucius: "But, she's really good in the sack! We Malfoy's deserve young and nimble flesh. You'll see. You'll tire of the Mudblood when you reach my age. I shudder at the thought of having to live through a 150 year marriage. Your mother understands, she's been splitting her time between young Theadore Nott and Blaise Zabini."
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Draco: "Those bastards! And I fell for their ruddy stories about working late and playing Quidditch!" He looked away. "Well, for now, Hermione is enough, but you may be right. Later on I might venture out, and she can do the same."
Response from GinnyW (Reviewer)
Lucius: "My advice to you, son, is to get these stipulations in writing. She, being a Mudblood is less likely to understand our ways. You may have to slip it into your marriage contract without her being the wiser. I know an excellent spell to hide such a thing. Even from a clever witch, such as her. Now, where is Miss Parkinson...? I was hoping for a final tumble with her before I secured things with Miss Brown."
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Draco: "Very well, Father. I have to be off to Snape's. Hermione was there to help him with some potion."
Now that they have decided to truly give things a go, I can't wait to see what happens next! I wonder what he will give her for Christmas?
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
8 inches.. OMG! LMAO! Did I just say that?
Response from cocoachristy (Reviewer)
And a Merry Christmas was had by a Mudblood! And after that a good night!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Mmmmhmmm.... **sneaks in and poses as Hermione**
Response from cocoachristy (Reviewer)
Wonder if he would be into Hermione twins? Where did I put my polyjuice??? *Turns room upside down looking for it...*
I'm glad she forgave him...but I'd kinda like to see her smack Lavender around a little. Think you could work that in?
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Hahaha! I know. I guess the one slap she gave her in the last chapter will have to do. For now, we're going to be away from Hogwarts, and their parents are going to be meddling! lol
Great story. I love good Hermione and Draco!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Thanks so much for reading.
Finally they admitted their true feelings.Yay.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Finally! hehe!
Now I think it is time for a little heart to heart talk, and for Hermione to do some soul searching to see if she can get past it. (Here's hoping she can!) I also want to see what else Lucius has in store for those two. I wonder who will visit who during Christmas??? LOL I need you to update!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
But of course... muhahahhaa... Lucy love will have some things in order that will "speed" up their relationship. muahahaha
I love this story, Sun! I haven't been reading much fanfic lately, but I must admit that it's a joy to read a post-HBP fic that has such normal problems. I'm sick to death of doom and gloom! Can't wait for the next chapter! :)
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Yay! Pook's back in town. Death / gloom = blah. I know the feeling! Glad you liked this!
Its getting better and better! I am dying to know how Hermione will respond to Draco when she wakes again. I do hope that she forgives him, but then again she does have reasons not to. A little pain for Draco is what he deserves in my book, but I always thought Draco and Hermione made a cute couple, so I hope things work out.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
I'm going to pull the old chapter up tonight and muck with it some, but I'm certain that she and he have a great talk--if memory serves me. hahaha! I think they're cute together, too. He reminds me of those boys that "pick" on the girls they like.
Magical, I love the scene by the lake. I'm sure Draco can convince her to forgive him, he can be so charming and so intense even when he's pretending to be casual. Can't wait for the next update. Brilliant.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Thanks! I'm glad he found her and knew where to look. i'm thinking that things will be all right. :)
Forgiving someone is easy, especially if you love them, it is the letting it go and trying to forget that is hard. It really was a typical response from Draco and men in general, like sex with someone else can make you love someone less. Foolish men. Great chapter. -- B
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Men are silly, aren't they? hehe! I think it should be easier to forgive him for this b/c it's not like they were truly an item, you know? That was the "hardest" chapter. I have something interesting planned, thanks to Lucius. Silly man.
I love it even more, the more i read. i can't wait for the next chapter. and i do hope she forgives him.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Thank you! I'm happy that you are enjoying it! More up soon! psst... she'll forgive him, after a small talk of course...
oohhh that's a hard one to forgive. I think I would have thrown a few hexes before running off.
the boys would have definitely killed him if she died.
lavender has always acted trashy. are you going to see how those to were briefly brought together.
when is the next chapter going to be out?
thank you for the update. Patty
PS its snowing here. grass is covered.

Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
I think she was a bit shocked, and besides, it wasn't as if she was truly his girl. However, it still hurt her. I think that she'll be all right. Draco will explain it to Hermione. I should have it up soon. I need to work on Luring. I've just not had enough time to finish that one. lol
Response from pickles (Reviewer)
WHAT NO UPDATE YET???
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
haha... you want Luring or not? Snicker
Response from pickles (Reviewer)
BOTH!!!!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
muahahaha! I've worked on both over the weekend. Maybe a bit of each on the morrow or so...
Response from pickles (Reviewer)
Oh okay since you are the one in charge of the clicker button. BUT!!! I'm still waiting here in very cold Pennsylvania...
Oh, I think there will be forgiviness...followed by lots and lots of lemons, I hope!! Another great chapter, SW!! Thanks for sharing!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
lol... Lemons soon, but not in the next chapter I don't think. I've not opened it yet, but if memory serves me correct, it's the chapter after that has 'em!
*sniffs* Lovely chapter. I hope she takes what he said to heart and believes that he really loves her.And hell! Lavender you beotch!!!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
**kicks Lavender's arse**I'm glad Hermione smacked her. Heehee! They need to have a bit of a talk, but a little birdie told me that all will be well.
I hate that she had to almost freeze to death for them to admit their feelings out loud but I am glad they have. Ms Southern it just gets better and better I cant wait for the next chapter.
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
I agree. Some people are so damn stubborn or blind in certain circumstances. LOL! I'm glad you are enjoying this, doll.
Awwwwww.... so angsty. I didn't like Draco's little stunt. Grrrrrr. Yeah, warn, yeah, not attached, yeah, paybacks are a bitch... but still. All the more reason for her to go running to Mr. tall, dark, and brooding down in the dungeons. LOL!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
haha... I can see it now...Hermione: Snape, I need you to give me oral sex as a payback to what Draco did to me with Lavender.Snape: **eyes narrowed, hateful sneer, lip curled** How dare you suggest such a lewd act be bestowed upon you by a professor!?Hermione: **hangs head** I'm sorry, sir. I just thought that... nevermind.Snape: **smirks and begins unfastening robes** However, I see no reason why you cannot bestow such an act on me. So long as I am not the one doing the touching... or licking.Hermione gets down on knees but wonders if this was exactly the same thing or not? hmmm...
Hmm, sounds like Lavender's getting a bad deal - dumped by Ron, used by Draco, sent by Draco to Hermione who slaps her.... she needs a nice fellow too! I hope Hermione listens to Draco when she wakes up. Will Draco ask to be invited to meet her parents during the hols? That's a good way to show his seriousness! Thanks for the new chapter!
Response from Southern_Witch_69 (Author of The Mutual Deal)
Yep, though she allows herself to be in those situations. I don't know if anyone caught it--I think you did--but she tried to flirt with Draco in another chapter. Draco will get his invite. :)
