Let’s no give them take anymore.

I'm short on sleep, so maybe I'm missing something, but I can't seem to make this make sense. Could you explain?

I like the way they share the contrasting views on killing/souls - such different philosophies. Lovely little kiss, too. :)

Sorry, my mistake. I missed that even though I've read it so many times.

I've always worried about the killing souls - Dumbledore tells Harry that murder will split the soul and then still seems to expect Harry to do the same.

Or maybe I've missed the point there and what Dumbledore is trying to tell Harry is there's a way to end this without turning into a killer.

Thank you. I'm not sure the final bit will live up to anything though.

I'm going to be sad to see this end, but it's been a great '25' years.

It's been a challenge to write and I've enjoyed it. Will sit down and write the last bit soon.

The contrast between the two comments in the first drabble, I love.

The second, makes me sad. What is this - a mutual contemplation of offing it? I hope not.

That would be sad.

Put I'm prepared =o

a mutual contemplation of offing it?

No, I could never do that. It was more a realisation that they'd both been used by people but in different ways.

Thanks. I've enjoyed working with drabbles. This has become more difficult as it's gone along and I've been desperate to write more. I need to write the last bit but am a little worried in case it turns to fluffy.
