Wow, that was an amazing look into the Black family. I love Cygnus's perceptions on each of his children, especially Andromeda.

This is not everyone.

Everyone. This is everyone. We are the Black family, and we are happy. Amazing.

Thank you!

(I gratuitously stick Andromeda into all sorts of things. Even when she's not there, lol.)

Mmm, this was great. I love it!! I loved that look at the Blacks.

[kethlenda]

thanks! :)

Very nice - I like how Cygnus identifies two of his daughters with one of their parents, but cannot explain Andromeda. Short and poignant, excellent.

[kethlenda]

Thank you! I can find a way to shoehorn Andromeda into any fic. ;)

Your icon is hot.

Wow. You made me really care about Cygnus

[kethlenda]

thanks hon. :) I love all these random minor characters from the family tree.

[lodessa]

Me too. Also this totally explains where Narcissa coems from... because she always seemed out of place.

[kethlenda]

*nods* Between the name and her looks, she sort of sticks out.

Oh how nice! I enjoy reading about the "lesser known" Blacks (Phineas is my favorite). I loved this view inside Cygnus' mind. My favorite line was
They'd aged him before his time, but he felt young again when the brandy swirled in his glass and Bella was there to pit her queen against his king on the chessboard, to raise her husky voice in a political argument.

Thank you!
