Another fun story by Marks. I put it in the Almost Recommended section before. But now think it deserves to be in the library. I found it to be excellent.

I agree, I think it is Library worthy. It left me wanting more, and I wish that it was continued, but oh well.

4/5 from me.

 

Nice find, possessing a quality not often found in smutty one-shots.

4/5

 

I liked it, although the reaction from Gin-slut at the end was a bit weak: I was hoping to see her more jealous/crushed.

4/5.

 

Crushed as in catching a tower with her face, I hope you mean.

Nice little PWP one-shot . Passable grammar and spelling. Nothing really reaches out and grabs your attention, but decent for all that. 3.5/5

 

I diden't think a reaction in front of them was necessary she's probibley freaking out inside her head but she is to shocked to confront them, at least I imagine that's the reason.
4/5

 

I liked it myself. 4/5 from me.

 

I enjoyed it, 4/5.

 

I also liked this, 4/5 from me.

 

It makes me wonder how much better the books would have been if Rowling wrote this into HBP. 4/5

 

Definitely library worthy. I checked this out when it was in Almost Recc'd and loved it. 4/5

 

Loved it, great characterisation, and funny too. 5/5.

 

I liked this but I am new to this type of fan fiction so I am not the best judge.
5/5

 

4.5/5. Throw it into the Restricted Section nao, I say..

 

Pretty much this. I liked it if for no other reason than the author didn't try to make Luna a Seer, or just "acting strange" or any number of other half-assed tactics. She's just Luna, odd as hell and unapologetic about it - merely true to the canon-Luna. Aside from her potty mouth, of course.

My vote is 3.5/5, rounded up to 4/5 for the above Luna-related reasons. Oh, and Harry gets laid and Ginny likely knows it, which are both kinda pluses in my book, I'm not ashamed to admit.

 

Well written HP/LL smut? I'm clearly hallucinating. Still, 5/5 while it lasts.

 

I disagree. Seemed strange a girl with no friends would be that experienced with sex. The 'fuck' didn't work for me, either. Besides that, it was written well and the sex was refreshingly realistic.

Is it a good little piece garner some enjoyment from? Yes. Deserved to be in the high echelons of fanfiction? Nah. I give it a 3/5 for the Recycle Bin.

 

Cool fic. I've read few of his other works and they're all high-quality.
However, a one-shot needs to be a bit... revolutionary or original to get a 5/5 from me, like Tinn Tam's Reach the Open Space, IP82's Last Roar of the Dinosaurs, Joe's one-shot that's in the WBA, or Silen's Countdown.

This gets 4/5 for pulling off something I've always wanted to have seen done, a Luna/Harry HPB fic that's in character for both of them, and with well-written smut as an extra.

Smut~Very good.
Style~Very nice, little to no grammatical errors
Plot~Realistic(for a smut fic).

 

I don't know why, but I found this pretty damn funny.

Those lines made me titter away stupidly. Perhaps because they're so naively dumb?

Anyways, I concur with TheGardenofPotter (Where did you come from?):

3/5
