Those are always some of my favorite parts of the books, when they notice these things and call him on it, hahaha. ♥

I AM GLAD TO HAVE INDUCED FEELINGS, ahaha, hooray! Happy (extremely belated) Holidays to you.

I've been trying not to lurk. I'm horrible for lurking.

Never stop writing. Just please.... never stop writing.

This is wonderful. Absolutely wonderful and still and lovely and just..... gah. I have a terrible soft spot for trios and I have a bad feeling that part of the reason for that will always be attributed to these three.

Gaahhh, I love you. This isn't even your best fic, it's just that I love that blend of familial happiness and painful loss that has to have been that summer (and which I am crazy mad at JKR about skipping, by the by), and it's lovely. And this line broke my heart:

"to apologize for forcing her to tell people, when they ask, that she has six children."

Also, in my head, this is what they looked like lying on the hillside. (Except that's obviously Ginny rather than Hermione, which isn't right. But still.)

It's funny; Deathly Hallows Part II is coming out in less than a month and I'm really dreading it, and I feel like I've had to keep explaining to people why JKR's epilogue wasn't at all the one I wanted, and that it made me feel weird and cheated and discontented, and instead I should just hand them this fic and say here, this, this is the closure I needed: reassurance that things will get better by acknowledging what was lost.

Thank you so much for telling the story I needed to hear.
