A Matter of Perception

[alphabet26]

I wrote this ficlet for snoopypez's Ron ficathon. It's Ron/Padma (and you don't know how weird it is for me to have a story I can't submit to SQ) and I hope you enjoy

Oh, that was cute. Love "Ravenclaw in a tizzy" ... only one nitpick from my behalf My sister was the one who told me Ron wanted to invite me to the Yule Ball. He'd been too shy before, she explained. I understood perfectly--Harry had been too shy to ask Padma, and they did everything together in those days. Surely you mean "Harry had been too shy to ask Padma" or something like that.

Write more. :D

Oh, yay, I'm so glad someone likes it! Seriously, I am all sorts of worried about this one.

Surely you mean "Harry had been too shy to ask Padma" or something like that.

:sigh: Yeah, that's supposed to be Parvati. Fixed. Thanks for pointing it out.

But you seriously liked it? Because I seriously want reassurances. (I am not above begging.)

[hildigunnur]

Yeah, it was cute and fluffy. Stop fretting. It's up to the standard one expects of an alphabet fluffy fic even though the ship isn't what one usually expects.

(And apparently I do errors when I'm pointing out errors :D).

I will stop fretting. Yes.

I knew what you meant and I fixed what needed to be fixed. That's the important part. ;)

So secretly, they don't even know it.

I think it's cute.

Thanks! And I'm not really turning my back on R/Hr...Ron still treats Padma like crap throughout the Ball, so it fits in canon. Right?

[dome36]

It is a fluffy story. I like it! And Padma is one of the girls I can imagine get romantically involved with Ron.

The last part, the little dialogue with their daughter, is the best part!

Sweet is the Word!!!

Thanks so much for the compliments! I'm glad you liked it.

Whoa. I commented before, but it seems to have disappeared.

This is adorable, and a very convincing Padma-eye-view of the Yule Ball, barring her prevarications. So cute!

[alphabet26]

Thanks! I tried to keep the spirit of the Yule Ball--Ron's focused on Harry, yeah right--but make it convincing that they had a good time. For the sake of the child. ;)

I love it SO much. :D :D It's the cutest thing ever, and.. and.. squee! And that "so secretly, they don't even know it" line is the best. Hee.

Gaaaah! So much love! Whee! :D :D

[alphabet26]

Thanks! I'm so glad you liked it! I liked "So secretly..." myself.
