Oh, that was SO romantic! I especially loved the moment when Roger says he wants to see her again. I could feel the intensity in those words!

Thanks for the lovely springtime fic! (Helps to make me feel like spring will actually arrive. I'm staring out my window at 6 inches of snow and ice!)

Oh, good! I wanted him to come off as confident and intense when he wants something -- or someone. ;)

Thanks for reading, sophierom.

Hmm..

I enjoyed this; very light, spring time feeling and sweet ending. I've always enjoyed your Pansy but you even brought life to Roger Davies.

I'm just confused because I thought you the die-hard Pansy/Draco fan. :)

*smiles* Thank you for the lovely complements. Roger was a challenge since we have little to go on. I think he'd need to be charming, capable and confident to be popular with the witches and a Quidditch captain.

Well, yes, I am committed to Draco/Pansy. If Draco is going to be out of the picture, there needs to be a really good reason why because they are so right together. (I didn't know you were familiar with my Pansy!) In this scenario, I imagined him to have vanished after that night on the tower, just as he did in Pure & Proud. (Of course, he shows back up many years later to win back her heart. So, all is right with the world. *g*) So, I can write Pansy with another wizard due to circumstances beyond her control, but I don't like Draco with anyone but Pansy. (This was a rare-pair challenge, so I gave Roger a shot.)

Thank you for reading, blondesimone.

(I love Cary Grant! *icon*)

You've done a fantastic job with the changes! I really love how this turned out :D

It makes me happy to see Pansy allowing her heart to go with the flow and take a chance on what might or might not be, having fun in the process...good for her!

Spring in Paris...you know, we should do that sometime :)

*nods* It's dramatically different.

Yes, poor Pansy is having to deal with the pain of Draco vanishing years ago. She needs to finds a diversion, and Roger is there at the right place and time. ;)

Thanks for reading, lewlinx.

(Yes, springtime in Paris sounds like a jolly good time.)

Wonderful, like a breath of fresh spring air! It's fun to see Pansy with a different man, but only for a little while. ;)

I loved Roger's directness, and Pansy's redirecting spell on the old lech.

I'm sure Pansy would be willing to share Adverto with you. ;)

Thanks for reading, redvelvetcanopy. I'm happy you liked the change of pace.

Oh wonder of wonders I quite enjoyed the light whimsical nature of this drabble. It's a breath of fresh spring air to this muggy state I'm in right now.

Pansy is quite a sumptuous character, and very intriguing. Your Rodger comes off as confident but not over confident, and that is something I like a lot!

I love that you think Pansy is sumptuous. (Squee!) I adore writing stories about her. I felt Roger would need to be confident -- but not arrogant -- to draw Pansy's interest.

Thank you for reading, salamon2. Your thoughts are very much appreciated.
