Wow, this is... truly extraordinary. I'm stunned and amazed and I absolutely adore and love what you've created here.

I can't actually write much more than that at this stage because I'm too busy being in awe. WOW.

Wow I never really had very much interest in Xenophilius by himself, but this was amazing and has me totally hooked on him. I love all the little details and the life you've given a character we know so little about.

Thank you! I surprised myself by not actually mentioning the Deathly Hallows in a fic about Xenophilius, but then I wanted to see what was interesting about him himself for a change, and I'm glad that worked for you. And I like exploring characters that are peripheral in canon. :o)

Glad you enjoyed it!

This is inspired. It's tantalizing and by turns sweet and sour and I would love to read about a thousand more words for each section, at least. I could (and am, probably, right now) integrate this as canon so very easily.

It's so very finely tuned, too; each word is so precise. Wonderful!

Thank you so very much for the amazing compliments! I like mixing moods, because life is a mix. Writing to an exact word count for each section is difficult for me, so I got all annoyed with the 100 words per section self-imposed rule, but I wanted precise - I'm so glad you think it turned out that way!

Thank you! :oD

*sigh* One thing after another after another, and when I decide to commit to something I like to do it whole-heartedly. I was waiting for the right moment. It doesn't seem to have arrived yet. :o/

See, my 'happy' of the day turned 'sad' because this is just amazing, and I know you're not planning to join us now. That's so disappointing because this is just brilliant. I do understand, but if you do ever find yourself thinking you can handle a once every two week commitment, you're ours. *nods* Lovely work!

I'm all kinds of happy that you think it's really that you liked it that much. And seriously, when I have the time you can own me. :o)
