Awww! Awesome! That's exactly what I wanted. In retrospect my request was very specific and I was worried it would be stifling to write, so my apologies for that. You did a great job, though, and I really loved it. I love the interaction between Harry and Anna and Murphy and especially between Anna and Maggie. Anna lunging for her is so mini!Murphy.

Yeah, well, now you know why I can handle you.

That's sooo true. Murphy has the patience of a mother, doesn't she? :-D

I'm never sure if he doubts my driving abilities or if he thinks the phone is going to eat me. With Harry, it's hard to tell.

The mental image there is so great. I'm seeing the cell phone through Harry's eyes, with a great big fanged mouth on the speaker end, ready to chomp Murphy's ear off. Hehe!

Thanks so much! It's always so lovely to have a fic written just for you. *huggles*

Yay! *hugs* I'm so glad you liked it! :D I actually like having a specific request -- it's more of a challenge but more rewarding, in a way.

Murphy has the patience of a mother, doesn't she?

She does! I can't help but think of when he was all drugged out (magicked out?) and she had to get him into the car. She's good with him even at his weirdest. ;)

Yay! :D

This is wonderful! I adore the interaction between Anna and Harry. Great mystery, and delightful resolution.

Thank you! :D I love playing with Anna and Harry -- I still wish we'd gotten to meet her on the show. Sigh!

I doubt show-Anna could ever be as awesome as what fandom folks like you have done with her. :D

Great story! I want to be on Anna's team now.

Hee! This is so cool! I love the interaction between Harry and Anna...it's so easy, and I could really see Harry's relationships with both of them becoming something more than just friend/coworker/mom's friend.

The action was very unexpected, and I love how Anna was the one to save the day. :) I just hate that I took so long to come back and read it.

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. :)

Hee, I like getting comments anytime! Spreads the joy out.
