*Giggles madly* That is so CUTE! I never even thought of using Felix Felicis for romantic luck! Well done, I really liked it! :D

Thank you! I wouldn't have thought of it either--despite it having helped Harry's love life in HBP--if aclytie hadn't requested Felix Felicis in her prompt.

i absolutely LOVED it from beginning to end, and sirius is sweet and i like that james and peter are in it as well!

Thank you!

Well, poor Peter is barely in the story, and I must admit that I only wrote him into the common room scene because I realized that if I didn't, he wouldn't be in the story at all. I don't like him, but I don't like to overlook him either.

Oh, cute. :) Good characterization, Sirius and Remus were great. And I enjoyed the James/Lily parts too. For a minute I thought the potion wasn't going to work for Sirius, but everything ended well. :D

Thank you! aclytie's prompt made me think that things wouldn't work out too smoothly or too easily, and thus the idea of good luck masquerading as bad luck was born.

ah, that was fantastic. My friend and I were talking just the other day about how you could use Felix in this pairing. Really well done :)

Too bad they didn't use Felix Felicis later in their relationship--summer or autumn of 1981 perhaps? Things might have gone a bit differently.

Thanks!
