Ooooj I really liked this! It's a very emotion-filled drabble; I especially liked the miscommunication between their attitudes to their rendezvous.
Beautifully written!

You tease! You totally turned the locker cliche upside down with that one. Draco is such a meanie. Though if this were continued, the snog would happen eventually. :P
Poor Ginny. I really sympathised with her in this one.

I actually really, really liked this. Haiku isn't easy, and I think this was fun and put together nicely.
This was my favourite:
Finally alone
Blast this dress, stubborn buttons
A curse to all men!

Loved it!

/He didn't know why, but the red hair always got him./
Love that!
So this one wasn't at all what I expected it was going to be. I was thinking 'Ooo, fluffy proposal drabble', and then Ginny says she is married to Harry. So then I thought it was going to turn al angsty-like, but we still got a happy ending. Yay! (I laughed at the 'I can just accuse him of cheating and he'll have to divorce me').
The happy ending definitely warmed me to this. I have this thing with a Ginny who is in love with Draco but refuses to leave Harry. It just bothers me (which is why I don't like cheating fics), but this was nice. ^_^

Sweet! =)
First off, I loved the title of this one. Heartbreak Warfare sounds so dramatic. Plus, it fits into canon, which is a definite bonues. And oh, the last sentence. "That small green sprout of love"...Draco is in lurve. Also, green for love? Unusual. But fitting. Favourite line: "As she walked away from him once more, he noticed the proud way her hair swung and the confident step in her gait." I like how she's the strong one in the relationship here, opposed to the usual strong (or evil) Draco and spiteful but weak Ginny. So all in all a great take on the challenge, and also on the stereotypes and clichés that DG fics sometimes fall into.
Amazing little story, I loved it!

Kiles, I LOVED THIS.
It was so beautifully described - "her jabbed words ramming their iron heels into the splinters of his skull" is perhaps some of the most stunning, striking and incredible imagery I've read in quite a while.
More than just the beautiful wordsmanship here, I loved the story. I loved how you expanded on a tiny little line in OotP and gave us the backstory of why she hexed him. I also very much liked that they didn't end up together (bad Lizz! You ship DG, you fool!) BECAUSE, I think that in this case, a happy ending would have just ruined the rather dark and brooding mood you created. I like to think that after this, they never end up together, and Draco feels really badly for a long time - I think you should write a super depressing 'continuation' of this. u_u
Anyway, my point is that I thought this was incredibly done, and I LOVED every moment of it.

/Slowly, ever so slowly, (and how he hated to admit it) their relationship had gradually deepened, and they retracted their claws, allowing the other to peek into their hearts./
Beautiful imagery!
And this drabble itself was wonderful! I love that you took the Umbridge's office scene we don't see in the book and explained just why Draco went after Ginny, as well as linking it to the fact he doesn't allow himself to become a murderer, despite everything.

AWww, this was sad! I hate seeing things like this, because they're so real andf tragic and there's really nothing you can do about it.
I'm glad Draco stays with her and loves her, but I don't understand why all the men were so angry? It is because Draco is GInny's husband or bceause she has alzeihmers (I realise I spelt that wrong, but you know I'm probably sdpelling everything wrong at this point. It's nearly 4am and there's no spell check, looool).
Ahem. SEerious;ly though, I loved this, I just wish it was happier. :(
But I suppise that would defeast the purpose.

Ooo, I really like this one. There was some lovely imagery in this 'her heart thrashed sourly against her chest'. Lovely. I've never seen that description before, and it really does paint a very vivid picture.
I also liked the end. There was something utterly unforgiving about the whole situation, yet there was a bit of niceness in it too, if that makes sense. I just woke up, so bound to be a bit 'scattered' with my thoughts.
Anyway, I liked this! ^_^

I love it so much. I wanna know why you go back and forth between past and present though. I am happy you don't make everything mushy and stuff because it gives a sense of reality to this imaginary world. Can't wait for the next chapter. :)

Lol! The end was funny! I like stories where Harry is the good or bad guy so it worked out well in this chappie! When he was like 'ten more laps Weasley' to Ginny, I was like "Oh Snap, Crackle, Pop!" cuz I thought ginny would attack or something. I have to admit I was a teensy bit dissapionted when Ginny didn't try to maul Harry, but whatever, let's save that for another chappie*She wrote with a hopeful smile*.
Keep writing these please! I love them!:D!

LOL!
Okay, so I know that, as a DG shipper, I really should have been hoping this would go somewhere, but I REALLY liked that it didn't! This was so well written, vaguely funny and OH, Ginny and Draco were SO in character. I completely loved this one, Kiles!
Great! ^^

I don't much like poetry, which means that I'm REALLY picky about it. The good news is that I actually liked quite a few of these! ^^
The idea of telling the story of a wedding day in just seven haiku(s? [what's the plural? I don't know...]) Anyway, even if poetry isn't really your thing, I definitely don't think you were abysmal. Lol, not at all! Actually, as I said before, I thought a number of these were really well done. The second one, "clammy, sticky hands..." was wonderful. It really conveyed a LOT in just three lines. And the next, "he breathed those blessed words..." was very good too. And just a little bit darkly creepy (probably not what you intended, but I like reading that sort of thing in) with the "she was his forever now." The line "snaked into the night" was really lovely imagery. And...I'm not really sure if I'm just reading 'naughty' into the poem "a private instant..." but I totally read that as a particularly, subtly dirty poem. Anyway, uh, I don't think you meant it like that. At ALL, but still, I thought that poem was very well written.
So in all, you're not that bad a poetry, Kiles! I liked these! ^^
