OMG ♥ The way you told that story from the boggart's point of view - my mind is completely blown! I love it. Very inspirational.

Ooh, you've made me do lots of inane and delighted grinning. :D

There was a decided lack of any inspiration whatsoever with the boggart prompt, until I thought about it narrating the story and the possibilities (of torturing Remus!) there. Then it was a lot of fun trying to give Mr Boggart a simple, repetitive and one-track mind voice - I was quite fond of 'him' by the end, lol.

Thank you for reading! ♥

I was struggling with a charcter, and decided to give myself a break from it all, and reading your story really made something click, so it was probably the best decision I made all day. :)

I love how you got inside the boggart's head, really, and found what motivated it. Great stuff!

I should probably be worried what fun it was to be inside a creepy boggart's head??!

Siriusly, it is weird how reading or seeing something very different can often make connections in the brain. Can't wait to see what you've been doing. :D
