Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Oh gosh this was really good!

Alright, so I know I'm quite late on this, and it's probably going to be shit because I don't ever leave reviews and I'm no good at it anyway, but I couldn't read this and not say anything.

I came into this story half-expecting something funny, mysterious, and light-hearted, and filled with Drarry. By the time it became apparent that there was no chance of any (save for the mystery, of course) of these things happening, I was too invested to really give a shit. I was still a little hopeful of everything taking a turn in that direction though, mind you.

It wasn't really until after the first chapter of Still Fighting that I finally admitted defeat and took the story for what it was: a malign force that tore my soul right out of my ass.

I never really cry over books and movies, the last time I remember doing so was when I read Tessa Crowley's 'Chaos Theory' (which, wow, was only like a year ago?), but I fucking bawled over this. Repeatedly. I swear to God, even in moments that weren't tear-evoking, tears were evoked. It was painful reading this. Like, physically.

I have no idea how you managed to affect me nearly as much as J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter did, but you really have. Which sounds ridiculous and over-dramatic (and kind of is, honestly), but holy shit, this story struck me out of nowhere. It's the kind of thing that I wish I could unsee; partly so I can go back and read it all over again from the start, but also because I was not nearly emotionally prepared enough for this kind of shit.

The entire story was heart-wrenching (and I have loads to say about those kids, jfc, but this is already too long as it is), but Draco's departure and the last remaining shred of Harry Potter going with him was by far the hardest part to read. It wasn't even explicitly said that that was what was going to happen, and I was already all worked up over it.
Then finally the bittersweet epilogue of 'Mark' moving on and building a life with Ginny and Sirius, Beth marrying Quin, and Snape still being a greasy old git. Just, everyone getting closure after all of that suffering. It wasn't what I wanted or really expected, but after reading it, this verse couldn't (and shouldn't) have ended any other way. I'm really glad you ended up finishing it.

Wow, okay. Lmao, Sorry for the length of this. And the huge mess that it probably is, I didn't want to go back and read it over becuase then I'd probably just delete the entire thing.
In case It's even more nonsensical than I thought, I'm basically saying that this is one of the greatest HP fanfictions I've ever read, pretty much. So thank you for writing it, as well as for reading this!

Another excellent story. My only nit-picks are: HARRY didn't kill Voldie; and Horcruxes?

great story. i missed a few chapters, i realized, but now i finished reading.
I am very grateful that you decided to finish it. i absolutely adored ghost draco. I'm kind of glad he got the honour to kill voldemort, even if it doesn't account for the prophecy, but as you ignored that completely, i understand that it didn't have to be harry who finally ended the war.
cheers

I just read the last few chapters (I've been slowly clearing out my fanfiction inbox [somewhere around December 2011]) but when I read the next chapter of Raindrops I decided to check and found the alerts and finished. I enjoyed it a lot (though I'm going to re-read the series) though Draco still being a ghost would have been nice I think the way you decided to end it made the most sense. The song Here You Me is so sad but I think it totally fits the story. I can't wait to read more of Raindrops (or any other story you write in the fandoms I read)

a very nice story! i really enjoyed reading it!

Wonderful story and ending. Thank you for finishing your story.

I really like this...

well, first congrats on a job well done! i'm still a little choked up by this chapter, but i like the serene feel of the ending paragraphs - so much struggle, but not everything was lost. thanks so much for not giving this up!

this is a rather sad and angst-filled fic in general, but this particular last part, with harry saying goodbye to draco, made me tear up.

wow I can't believe it's over. I've started reading still alive when I was 16 and in the past 7 years (!) there was always something that made me think of this story and now it's finished. It's like some part of my teen years is over.

I really love this story and I don't think I'll ever stop to. I'm glad Harry could move on and have some good life. And I'm really happy that he is with Ginny and that they are both happy.

THanks for finishing it.
Have a great chrismas

Aww, this ended up far sweeter than I was expecting. Great reading for the drive on Christmas Day, and seven years well spent!

*standing ovation*

It's finally over! Hope we get to see more of Beth and the others in the epilogue. I should have known Draco would have a MacGuffin up his sleeve!
