Sooooo cuuuuuute! ♥

I like that you took quite a few of my requests and incorporated them into such a cute little story. ;) Using Pete, referencing Harry, awww. You got me. :|

It probably only makes sense to me but I've been knocking my own James-gives-Lily-a-bunny story in my head for a while. The truth is that my idea is just silly, but yours goes into more and that was great.

Thanks so much for writing and sharing! :D

This is at the same time cruel though, because I work at a pet store and am called the bunny whisperer because I play with them so often. I can't take one home though. Goodness I want one. XD

♥ Thanks again love!

I'm glad you liked it! I raise house rabbits so this was really fun for me. Thanks for the prompt.

This was wonderful! I am a sucker for bunnies so I was looking forward to this prompt. I loved how you used Peter and it makes sense that he would be the best suited with Hairy, given his Animagus. I loved the whole 'Harry' thing too.

YAY! More bunny lovers! Thanks for your lovely comment!

I love dialogue heavy fic and I didn't even mind reading Peter. Normally, and I am a coward to say it because it is wrong, but normally I like to forget he ever existed. Then there are the fic writers who detest fics that do that, because yes he was around and yes they did trust him, and that's all very true...but I am just a wimp and I think about sirius and then I'm crying about it all again. Anyway, rambles aside, I liked how Peter was done here. The use of Harry is also very very cute - a well executed idea indeed.

Picking up the baby, messy black hair like James and bright green eyes just like Lily’s, Peter smiled up at Lily and James. Lily was sitting up in the bed, leaning her head against James standing next to her stroking her hair. - This is lovely. The sentence is a teensy bit long I feel, but the image created is truly beautiful.

I usually don't do dialogue heavy fic, so I'm glad you like it. I think this is one of my first actually! Thank you so much for the lovely comment. Peter is a difficult person to capture just with all my emotions on the subject, and then you count in fandom and it's like O.O, but I try to put a little bit of him here and there in a somewhat innocent but not quite a fawning groupie way. So I'm glad you liked it! Means so much to me.

Thank you again for your lovely comment.

Thank you! And might I say your username and icon are both love!

This was such a fun read, E! I like how you've featured Peter here because he's often the Marauder who gets underrepresented. And I'm a huge fan of pets, especially the furry kind, so it really worked for me. I'm a tad like Lily in that I tended to name my animals all the same name when I was little so I can appreciate that aspect of her personality. :)

I'm glad you liked it! I was going for light and fun, not my usual fare. ;-) Thank you so much for the comment! I love that you liked it.
