Very nice! People tend to gloss over the friendship between Lavander and Parvati, and dismiss both girls a bit childish. It was a refreshing change to see them as real people.

I felt bad for Lavander in the books, because it was too easy to discount her feelings because the reader is so involved with the rest of the story. Even if she was overy schmoopy toward Ron, she didn't deserve to be treated poorly. You story gave me a little closure on that front, without making it a happily-ever-after type of scenario.

Well done!

Thanks. I felt bad for Lavender as`well. Being a teen-ager really sucks!

I LOVE IT.

Thank you, this is fabulous. I adored the burning of the photographs (oh, who of us hasn't at least once?) and the ending was just... chilling isn't the exact word, startling is closer. Brought the whole thing to a complete stop. I love it, it's very Rowlingan.

Thanks!

I'm glad you liked it. The last image came first and the rest followed.

Very nice, ht! I really like the way you show the girls as real characters rather than just background. And the ending was terrific.

I actually started with the ending and built the rest from there.

I love working with "minor" characters; it's fun building them up.

This is charming. We so seldom see what goes on between the girls. I love it.

Thanks; I'm glad you enjoyed it. The prompt was a bit different than I normally write, which made it fun.
