Squee!

[lyras]

Squee!

Oh, my love, what a fantastic subject to write about for me. And I can't give it the attention it deserves now, because my mum is standing over me and demanding to take me out :(. I shall be sneaking onto the PC later when she's gone to bed, I promise. Can't wait to read this!

Thank you so much to both of you!

Re: Squee!

[aillil]

Hee, I'm rather delighted about the fact that already the title and the summary appear to have made you squee, dear. *g* ♥

!!! That was so fun. Oh Sirius. I love that he's so inadvisable heh.

[aillil]

Glad you liked it. It was fun to write the piece, too, which comes as no surprise I should imagine. *g*

And "inadvisable" in the most literal sense indeed. *lol*

[lyras]

Sirius lowered his head slightly and coyly batted his lashes at her

Hee, naughty Sirius, flirting with Minerva! I'm sure she likes it, too :).

silly and dangerous pranks

Oh, yes, that's McGonagall right there.

you must know that you will not be alone wherever you choose to go

Aw, this bit is so sweet.

Thank you so much, you two. The career advice chapter is one of my favourites in OotP, and this scene was just begging for someone to write it :). I'm so glad you made it serious in the end, though - Minerva's concern for her pupil, and affection for Sirius, is beautifully expressed.

The illustration is beautiful, too - I love the expression on Sirius's face! McGonagall's tartan is a lovely touch, as well :).

Thank you so much to you both - this was a lovely surprise! ♥

[aillil]

Really, I'm so pleased you liked this.

I figured this set-up would be for you (wonder if it would fit into quinquatrus?),and I'm still a bit surprised that I've never come across Sirius' career's advice anywhere in fandom before. I'm sure there must be stories, but to be honest, I didn't get that idea by myself, either. It was one of the challenges over at sirius_loving yonks ago. :)

I hope you had a great day with as much cake as you could manage! :) *hugs*

[remeciel]

*blushes a lot again*
I'm really happy you like the illustration. As I told you, I really would want to draw some more, but who knows? maybe I can draw something else later... ;)

[remeciel]

This new version is truly wonderful. You add some tiny details I really find wonderful. :))
You're such a marvellous author!

[aillil]

Ah well, the LJ is not for me tonight...

*blushes a lot*

Another joint venture that I truly enjoyed, dearest. :) I'm kind of surprised that the picture became rather small, but the scrapbook resized it apparently. :/

*hugs*

Look at lyras' lovely comment above!

[remeciel]

Another joint venture that I truly enjoyed, dearest. :)

Same here, love. :)) *hugs*

but the scrapbook resized it apparently. :/

Now this is strange. It never happens to me!

[_emeraldgreen]

Oh, this is wonderful! I enjoyed it very much! I have much respect for Minerva's patience. :) ♥

[aillil]

Thanks, I'm happy to hear you enjoyed it! I had much, much fun writing it, believe me. *g*

I have much respect for Minerva's patience.

Don't we all... *eg*

And much icon-love!
