Yay!
This was the last story I could come up with for which I might have an update in my mailbox today - so I'm rather pleased at the moment.
This chapter was really up to my expectations. But now I really want to have this nice little next chapter up as soon as possible. This is one of the scenes I can't wait to read: Draco explaining (almost) everything to Harry...

Soo.... be nice, update very soon,

greetings, Baltaine

Me too!

To paraphrase a very old TV show, "Draco, you got a lot of 'splaining to to..." Since the RoR has allowed Draco in, Harry must now that Draco is on their side, and now his other friends will be able to tell him what they now about Reflection. Are the items in Draco's pockets go help convince Harry? One is the soul flask, but what about the book? And whose wand does he have in there? Draco better not forget to get that soul flask charged!

Sorry to be so demanding, but I have lots of pentup frustration that has built up. I was starting to be afraid that you weren't coming back, especially since you never responded to any of your chapter 98 reviews! *heavy sigh* Please don't scare us like that again.

Anne B. Walsh replied:

I'll try not to scare you like that again, but I had a horrible case of writer's block in the middle of this month, and for a while I was scared myself. As for the items in Draco's pockets... wait and see!

Should we be worried? You haven't posted anything new or responded to the reviews for almost a month now. Did your computer crash again?

Anne B. Walsh replied:

It did, but more importantly, so did my brain. But I'm back now!

is it like the anniversary of when you first posted dangerverse?

nice chapter!!!!

Anne B. Walsh replied:

It is, and thank you!

OMG!!! It's the 5th anniversary of when Living with Danger was first published!!! Now for my question: How many chapters of Be Careful are left???

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Yes, it is... and I don't know! I wish I did!

LynnTerald posted a comment on Sunday 25th October 2009 2:42pm

EVIL CLIFFHANGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But do finish, please.

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Yes, of course.

So I maybe, remember I said maybe, have a guess on what is special about today. Is it Hermione's birthday? I can't be sure I'm so bad at dates. Anyway I thought I would try.

I thought I would add that Draco really has everything going perfectly. tell me when eill Murphy's law decide to ruin EVERTHING and then leave me hanging with a dumb look on my face. and don't lie to me I know it's comeing

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Good try but no. Hermione's birthday is the same as International Talk Like a Pirate Day, if that's any help... and Murphy will be along eventually!

I'm going to assume that Draco survived the killing curse because his birth mother died for him?
That sounds better than Crabbe just being an idiot and not cursing him properly.
Although admittedly I cant rule that out, his being Crabbe and all...
Anywho...
Excellent as always!

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Bingo!

HGRHfan35 posted a comment on Sunday 25th October 2009 7:34am

If it has to do with your writing ...... it has to be an Anniversary of some sorts. The start of 'Dangerverse'? Was that 4 or 5 years ago...mmm....I found you later than that so I'm not sure.

Draco doing his 'Reflection' *LOL* I could just picture those faces of those in the RoR. Loved it.

The scar (killing Curse) and Crabbe ..... as weird as it may sound .... Crabbe loved Draco so much that his death protected Draco from the Killing Curse? Disturbing thoughts run through my mind. *Someone.....obliviation please?*

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Yep, 5th anniversary of LwD! And no, it's not Crabbe who loved him like that. EW.

AnnaTigg posted a comment on Sunday 25th October 2009 5:22am

Encourage, encourage...What a fantastic chapter - loved the reactions to Draco revealing himself as Reflection. Intrigued by the bit about Draco and Crabbe. Final Battle ahoy! Please please update soon!
Happy Birthday Dangerverse...

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Sorry this isn't soon... hope it's okay anyway!

Happy Dangerversary!

I love it!

*purrs all over the story* Ah, but this way, it's always an unexpected treat! Write whenever and however you wish, you'll have a devoted fan in me.

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Don't say that too loud. You encourage my inner procrastinator.

carolebear posted a comment on Sunday 25th October 2009 3:11am

I know, I know! Two years today, you posted Beyond World's End, a one shot dealing with an alternate ending to Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. Of course I had to go look over on TFA - just goes to show you how a person desperate for updates will surf the web looking to new material!

Loved the chapter - I could just imagine the looks on their faces when Draco did his Reflection voice. Just wondering though, won't it be dangerous for Neville to take everyone down for breakfast? Won't they get caught by the Carrows? I totally understand why it has to be done; it just seems terribly risky.

How much encouragement do you need? If you want food, I'll need an address. That's the one thing I hate about November - there are so few updates. Do all your 50.000 words have to be in the same story?

Anne B. Walsh replied:

You're right about Beyond World's End, but I was actually shooting for 5 years of DV. They go to the Hog's Head for breakfast, not to the Great Hall. Technically, yes, all 50000 words should be in one story, but I cheat...

Fifth-year anniversary of the Dangerverse! Great way to commemorate it, as we launch the final phase of what might be your best story yet.

So, what was up with Draco, Crabbe, the cut, and the Killing Curse? :-)

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Gee, what do you think was up with it? (Sorry for the wait, btw.)

BaltaineShadow posted a comment on Sunday 25th October 2009 1:41am

I could see the facial expressions of the occupants of the Room of Requirement clearly when Draco started giving the little Reflection speech... priceless. :-D
I hope you'll update soon... (threatening glare fixed on defenceless author)

Greetings, Baltaine

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Oops. This is not soon. Sorry.

I...
1) ... am glad you're feeling better,
2) ... do hope your new job is all you wished it would be and
3) ... am delighted to find you posted two updates already (Yay, BC! Yay, FD!)

Thanks!

Anne B. Walsh replied:

Well, so far so good. *crosses fingers for continuing goodness of job and health* Thanks for review!

AnnaTigg posted a comment on Monday 19th October 2009 7:14am

What can I say, except, WOOO, you're back, and in such style too. Staying very much tuned...

Anne B. Walsh replied:

I shall attempt to make the next chapter worth your while.
