Oh how wonderful!! This is just an exquisite piece--I just adore the "voices" of your Hermione and Phineas, and Oscar was quite a delight as well. The Humpty Dumpty dream was just inspired, as a fan of "Alice" I especially enjoyed that part.

Off to rec this in my own journal!

Oh, that is adorable :) And the dream was very Carrollian.

I loved the whimsey in this. I'm another "Alice" fan, so this struck just the right note. Well done! :c)

I love it!

I agree with a_t_rain. The dream was quite Carrollian.

I have a soft spot for Phineas, and have had for years. This sounds just like him.

And poor Hermione, stuck in a portrait. I'm so glad she found her way out again. (And I hope she stays friends with Phineas. He sounds dreadfully lonely.)

This is quite brilliant.
