Is HNNNNNNNNNNG an exact transliteration? Because that kind of makes me go "eeeeee" very quietly. :D! I'm so glad you liked it! And yes, that was the message. Ivy was just freaking out just a little bit because huge life changes are freaking scary.

The adoption is my second favorite one after the proposal. Also, Andy and Leah are the best ever trufax.

Thank you so much! *hands you a kitty to cuddle*

The proposal. THE PROPOSAL. Somehow that was what got to me most. Although all of it, the entire thing, was wonderful. And it all became linked back together in the final part of the chain, which was... heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time... Ivy CAN'T DIE. XDD EVER.

Andy and Leah are wonderful, especially their portrayal as bickering children. Loved reading this! :D

The proposal was my favorite one to write, and it broke my heart to cut it down to 100 words. Someday I'll write the director's cut. XD And there will be lots more Andy and Leah, if only because it blows people's minds when they say they're related and I love writing about people with blown minds.

Thanks so much!

Ivy had to die because Ivy is sadly mortal. BUT IT'S NOT FOR FOREVER. She lives a very, very, very long time. And does many shenanigans. Cross my heart.

Thank you so much!

THAT LAST ONE.

Here I was reading these, all smiley and happy and "aww, Ivy, ilu" and THEN THAT LAST ONE. I could feel my heart clench. So sweet and sad and lovely.

Perfect, all of them!

I'm sorry! It made me end it that way. FORCED ME AT GUNPOINT OKAY. You know how that goes.

Thank you so much!

AWWWWW.

I am so glad that phone call was not a Sign of Bad Things to Come and in fact, the best thing ever. And so was Gina, apparently :P Also, I think I love Andy, and the first three pockies were awfully sweet as was the one when Summer smiled (legend has it my brother gave me HIS first smile, so I love reading similar things, and considering Ivy's feelings about getting a baby sister it's nice to see them have a cute moment so early), and the last one. Which also made me a bit teary.

So lovely!

She was half-flabbergasted. She was kind of expecting a proposal, but not, um, quite like that. XD I'm so glad that you liked this so much! I love writing about Ivy and her family and the people she loves, so there may be more like this.
