I love this incarnation of Dudley. Everyone needs an uncle like him. Boxing is a great solution to the boys' problems - which are so rooted in the canon Epilogue. Lovely use of the church service, too! (Very cheeky notes).

Belatedly - I do apologise -

[wemyss]

I thank you.

Cheekily.

I adore your version of Dudley - and of the post-war world in general. Beautifully written, darling. I could wrap myself in your words forever.

How vy kind of you.

[wemyss]

I'm inexpressibly obliged.

I do enjoy your Dudley! and what a wonderful use of his childhood and experiences to help Harry's son, who needs help as Harry did, however loved and not neglected.

Thank you.

[wemyss]

Vy much indeed.

And I quite like redeeming Dudders.

[aigooism]

I love the last line! That just make me laugh so hard! ;D

I shall tell you a secret.

[wemyss]

I felt precisely the same.

Thank you.

*grins* YES!

So, wwmrsweasleydo was kind enough to prep this file for posting, and I therefore am reading it for the first time. And I LOVE that you have Dudley choose to teach boxing to the boys. Also the perception you give him, and his quick alliance with George.

As always, the world you build here is brilliant, as is the way Dudley navigates it.

Can't wait to learn of Harry and Ginny's reaction the first time Albus rounds Jamie! Or Draco's reaction to the stories Scorpius is sure to tell!

Excellent work :D

It felt right.

[wemyss]

Yr response confirms that it was right. I'm hugely obliged, and thankful to have had this chance.
