Oh, I liked that. Ron and Luna, Snape and Hermione and Ginny and Oliver.

Oh crap! Elf-made wine that brings out your dark side!I love Ron's reaction, very mature and clear thinking. He seems to have hit the nail in the head with his explanation of her actions. I can't wait to read more!

AAAHHHH  angst every were.. Hee HEE naught  Luna. As i told you befor i love your premise this is a good story every way you tell it. This is the kind of story i normaly look to read and i like how you took the same idea and tryed it another way i love taking a good idea and twisting this way and that for different result's.I also love marriage law story's I think i read them all just to see every one's take on the same concept. I don't know which story i like best though there somthing like apple's and orange's your pairing were a good suprize didn't see that coming it add's exitment i think. If you want to even throw out another idea i would love to read it also these are such good story's. Though i'm not trying to be pushy i just know all the idea's i get  when i get on a good topic.You are a great writer keep it up. 

Lol The shit is really going to hit fan now.  lol  Never mix witches and elfwine and charms together.  lol  I love this spin on things.

This is delightful.  Just what I needed after a week of jolification (and caring for a sick family) Thanks for writing this.  I am really enjoying it.

This is very funny, confusing but funny.

Eagerly awaiting an update. 

Well, they've got quite a fine kettle of fish, haven't they? At least they only have to be married for a year. If they wanted, they could consummate, then not see each other again for the rest of the year (live at different ends of the house or whatever). At least it's not permanent. (Tho I'm sure they'll fall in love eventually, but I'm thinking of what would be possible solutions for the present...:) )

What a delightful chapter!!! Everyone but Luna at the Ministry in a state -- loooove it!!! Snape taunting Ron was delectable -- I can't wait to see what else you have in store for our poor hapless couples. So who is Harry going to end up with? Will he be casting the charm as well? (Hmm, there's no Slash warning on this fic, so it's not going to be Draco as his one true love for a change!) Please post again soon! Thank you!!

Ha - Manipulative!Luna is one of my favorites. This is a great start. I cant wait to see how the first meetings go with each of the couples. I can see Oliver with Ginny (even though this is not a pairing I've read before), but I must admit I was hoping for Draco. LOL

neat begining.  i look forward to further developements

Oh this is going to be funny!More please.

It's funny that you point out in the first chapter that Ginny claims, “Yes. I’ve always loved Harry… before I even knew him, which is strange now that I think on it.” Because if Oliver is her soul-mate, she only knew him between the ages of 11-12. She must not believe in long courtships! And I can see why Oliver thinks of his job with the Harpies as being his dream job, since they only hire witches ... he's got to be the only guy on the team. At least both he and Ginny like Quidditch!

I could see Ron and Lavender ... I could see Harry and Luna [or Luna and Neville] and naturally I can only see Hermione with Severus, but am curious to see how you play out the combinations you've planned. 

Sneaky!  but Oliver Wood?  That was surprising.  So Harry wasn't one of the three.  hummmm.  Well I think Luna wanted (and got) Ron; I am fairly sure Hermione was linked to Severus (but his response was a bit shocking and I'm not sure who he was referring to) and that leaves Ginny with Oliver (who doesn't really fit her poem to my mind).  But this makes it all the more fun to find out just what you have planned.  I look forward to your next revealing chapter.  Thanks, JoAnne

Lovely response to the prompt. Oliver Wood was a surprise. I look forward to hear the girls' reaction. And Hermione's reaction to Luna's result no less....

I'm noticing that Harry didn't get a letter! I think that's the first time that happened and it kind of pleases me to no end.

I love that Luna is hoping her soul-mate will be red-haired, it would appear that she's got some ulterior motives with this.

I'm very suprised about Oliver Wood though. His treatment of his girlfriend doesn't really come across as very nice, so it'll be interesting to see how he copes with this turn of events, being forced to do what he didn't want to do. He doesn't seem to immediately fit any of the rhymes though, or is that because I'm looking at them through Harry-coloured glasses perhaps? 

I'll be keeping an eye on this one, definitely.

All right! I think HG/SS, GW/OW and LL/RW. This is a fine kettle of fish! Can't wait for more!

Livvy 

LOL This is good. The guys reactions were delightful and I can gardly wait to read the confrontations that are surely to be quite explosive! 

Luna wasn't in Ravenclaw for nothing! If you want a friend's partner, make sure they get into a binding relationship with someone else first before going after the one you want; but if it's done magically, make sure you all cast the charm at the same time, so you can't be 'blamed' for the 'awful' way things turned out, being subject to the same rules yourself.

I'm glad that all four of the engaged persons expressed some doubts before performing the charm; that'll make things much easier on their hearts in the end.

Also, Hermione... What was she thinking?!? Hermione chose an iris for faith, hope and, most of all, wisdom. As she added her flower, she said: “I want a man who’s witty and clever with a burning desire to learn. Who won’t ridicule, who’s never the fool, and will give me all that I yearn.” There is absolutely no way that her flower or her rhyme could have ever described Ronald Weasley!!!

This is a great start! I'm looking forward to the next!

lol I can't wait to see who got who

So far so good. I'm totally happy to see Wood in a story! :) Not many people use him it seems

Hmmm, casting charms while drunk?  That can be an adventure in and of it's self. Would the results be different if they were sober?

Very cute start -- I have a pretty good idea of who is with who -- and I look forward to seeing how this all develops. Thank you for sharing!!

Yay, another story from this prompt! I would assume the pairings are Luna-Ron, Oliver-Ginny, and Hermione-Severus? Judging by Hermione's reaction to the name in her cauldron, I doubt she got Ollie or Ron, as she wouldn't be upset by Ron's name, and I doubt she'd be THAT upset by Oliver's.

Looking forward to more! :)

Great beggining, hope to see more soon.

I only say...PLEASE DON'T LET BE GINNY ANd SNAPE!. *thinks of her happy place, happy place*  For the love of god..please no!

Anyway great story though, can;t wait to see what happens.
