Thank you!

:) I figured that with Dean being Muggleborn, it wasn't totally out of line for him to be an Eddie Izzard fan and probably drag Seamus along into it.

Yay!

Yay for Izzard!

That fic was great, I had some tears welling up more than once.

Well, it was yours, so I'm glad you liked it! :)

That was completely lovely. Your Seamus is just adorable -- passionate, both vulnerable and strong, and so charmingly Irish. I loved that the romance was so emotional yet written with a light touch, especially in the dialogue.

“Miss Granger, don’t you think the season’s been especially gay this year?”

Hermione put on her own prim-and-proper act, looking haughtily upward. “Indeed it has, Mister Finnigan…despite the lack of balls.”

“Lack of balls!” Seamus fought to hold back a laugh and managed to look direly offended instead. “Miss Granger, I cannot believe you just accused me of such villainy!”

*snigger* Aw, I'd really just like to put him in my pocket and take him with me home! :)
