Mmmmm.

Nice, very nice indeed. That brightened up my afternoon rather well!

Ooh I just need to savor this one for a bit. Lovely, so lovely. And:

His heart was breaking.

Severus turned onto his side, trying to fight off the wave of semi-hysteria threatening to overwhelm him. The sick werewolf and his ruddy purring dragon toy had broken Severus’ heart. And it was only possible to experience heartbreak if your heart first belonged to the one who had broken it.

that just killed me, reminded me rather too much of my last relationship (only without the werewolf and the purring dragon toy) :)

Thanks! I'm... well, not pleased if it reminded you of unpleasantness, but glad that it felt real for you :)

::cuddles:: Only took me two months ;) Since it was written for you, it delights me that you liked!

Time off? What's that again? LOL, my summer is going a little more hectically than I'd originally planned. Between my store and the research assistant gig, I'm doing about a sixty hour work week, and I'm taking Spanish evening classes until the beginning of August :p But I'm having fun and really enjoying the lack of academic pressure right now. Nice and relaxing. I'm re-reading HP canon again in prep for HBP (and making notes because I'm that much of a geek ;) )

How about you- how goes it all?

LOL, well as long as you are relaxing! I took Spanish way back in jr. high. i can remember how to say how are you, my name is and where are the bathrooms and the united states.*g* I'm glad you are enjoying your time even if it is more hectic than planned. I'm doing okay. Still really busy with work and starting to freak a little as the date gets closer to shutting our department down. Not alot of job opportunities but i will get unemployment if worse comes to worse. I like to work, though(crazy, i know) so i hope i do find something fairly quickly. Other than that, just watching tv season finales and sneaking peeks at lj, although i can't comment as often as i would like. But enough of my boring stuff, i have to go run and tell everybody about your wonderful story. have a good evening! Swansmooches!

*squees* God, I love this! It's just lovely and well written and balanced. And not overly sugary. Go you.

[rose_whispers]

Thank you!

And I need to cuddle the crap out of your icon. I'm a HUGE Get Fuzzy fan, and that pic is just pure Satchel ;)
