Dazed and Abused - Comments

  • I kind of like the fact that the tables are turned here. In the books, Malfoy is the one being nasty and hurtful, but here Ron is a complete monster. It's so weird and surreal to read about because Ron was always above everything in my eyes, but it works. Your description is pretty solid and everything flows together really well. I've read a lot of things that deal with taboo subjects like rape and skirt around the sordid details, but you've done none of that here, so I'm definitely really impressed. It's sad, it's heartbreaking and in a way, it's good. The ending was really bittersweet. I was glad that Malfoy had finally escaped it all, but to have to do that to escape shows how desperate his life was and that makes me really sad.

    I'll be announcing the winners shortly, so good luck! Cute

  • I actually really like Harry Potter fanfiction, aha, so I was excited when I saw that it was a Draco story because he was one of my favourite characters. :)

    Now, usually I'm not someone who enjoys out-of-characterness (which you must admit, is pretty prominent), but I figure since it's for the plot of the story, I'll let it slip past this time, haha. Characters aside though, it was a really decent one shot! The writing was pretty good in a general, the flow was pretty consistant and awkward wording was really sparse, which is definitely a good thing. You've obviously got a wide range of vocabulary, and I like that.

    It's always sad to read about abuse, especially the way you go into such detail.

    If anything, the only thing that really put me off was, again, the OOCness of the characters. Other than that, it was exceptionally good one shot!

  • HOLY SHNIKEES! I never knew Ron was such a douche!
    Now I don't like Ronald...
    Not that I ever did...
    I've always been a Draco girl. =3
    But, anyway, that was seriously, insanely good!

    Love Always,

  • Oh my gosh, actual tears appeared in my eyes as I read the ending ...
    I just canĀ“t picture a world without Draco Malfoy.
    This is so well written, and the idea is good.
    I like how you made Draco and Harry friends :)
    Though it was hard to read through the whole abusing thing.
    I think this is amazing, you write good :)
    And hey, did you draw Draco, on that picture ?
