I stumbled on to this one quite by accident and I'm glad I did. An interesting little read.


Checked July 24, 2012: Link was broken, and author changed his name.

 

It is pretty good, though I think it could have been better if they didn't use such obscure words like 'insouciance' and 'osculates'. It isn't very fun when you have to look up words in the middle of a story. Additionally, the aforementioned words didn't mesh well with the surrounding words. It was like they were throwing out random words that no one has heard about just so that they could show off their vocabulary. Other than that, it was pretty well written.

Spoiler

This is probably the first time I have come across a Bellatrix/Draco pairing. Also, having Harry incinerate her reproductive organs was very inventive.

Overall, I give it a 4.5/5

it is wonderful. 4.5/5....well-thought plot.

 

There wasn't really any plot. PWP.

It's not too bad... above average. As Emt10 mentioned, the author tends to use obscure words that don't fit that well. Also it's quite short, but it's original to an extent so it get's points for that.

3.7/5

 

Nice wee one shot, I really liked Bella in this one.

4/5

 

Heh, Nice.

Original, well thought out storyline, though minimal, and decent characterisation.

Nice curse invention.

3.5-4/5

 

Oh bravo! I'm not the kind of person who likes one-shots, but this story was absolutely amazing. It's one of those few fics that manage to grab your attention, and make you want more. The characterization was wonderful, there were little grammar mistakes, and the ending made me laugh. I would love to read the next chapter, just to see Draco and Bella get tortured.

5/5

 

delightful.

5/5

 

It was brilliant. The characterization was simply amazing, I loved Harry very much.
4/5

 

Shouldn't this be in the restricted section?

 

Fucking awesome. I wasn't so sure about it at first, but its a really good one-shot. 5/5

 

I really liked it. I've seen a few with Bella/Harry rape, but usually he just seduces her than buggers off. This, I found more believable. Even if thinking about Harry going where Draco's *hemhem*been before is rather sickening.

 

Nice.

Little short, but good stuff.

That said if someone was truly being tortured, stripping them is usually one of the first things done. (See Abu Ghraib, Vietcong Torture Camps, and Stalin's Gulags.)

Its a nitpick, but still...

Anyway, interesting and certainly worth reading once (its a pretty short oneshot.)

4.7/5

 

I'll give it a 4/5 for originality and use of decent sized words. This is one of the only well-written non-con Bella/Harry's I've come across. Not to mention he responded like he had a set instead of being a whiner about it and having to be "comforted" by Ginny..........
