*blush* OMG, ruthless. I'm so sorry about that. Except, really, not at all sorry, because this thing of exceptional loveliness happened. I hope you know by now how much I love it. Wow. You made us all super, super happy, alby - you're such a star ♥

[alby_mangroves]

You're gorgeous, you know that? You were so supportive and lovely, I really wanted to do a good job for you. Thank you for being you and for all your help on this, and all your kindnesses for as long as we've known each other ♥

I'm so sorry about the lateness of this reply, i'm such a jerk! I didn't realise how much time had passed. Thank you! <3

Eek! I never realised you drew H/D art as well, until I saw this,but YAY!! I love Draco's hair, and his lean body, but I really love the way you have the scar bisecting his nipple!! And the gentle, almost reverant way Harry is touching him is just perfect. Just lovely!

Oh, and I adore how you've kept Harry with his glasses on!

[alby_mangroves]

I didn't realise either (read: this is my first and only so far!)

Thank you so much for your lovely comment! I do love Harry with his glasses on, and Draco's perfection marred in a completely sexy (if painful) way ;)

Thanks so much!
