This is a nice little series of meditations. There's not enough fic about the Patil twins, or maybe I just need to look harder. I enjoyed the backstory you've imagined for them.

Thank you very much! I have seen some rather good fic about the Patils myself, although it is true that one does need to dig about in fandom a bit. :D

Adding to memories. Best fic I've read yet this season.

Oh, this made me want to cry.

[ressie_noldo]

Now that I can actually respond to this, thank you -- upsetting people isn't usually my intention, but hey, if it works. ;)

[magic_at_mungos]

Oh that's a good thing. You can't beat a good cry as of an evening :D

This is really lovely.

[ressie_noldo]

Thank you very much!

the fact that Parvati is clever and she is only nice.

This is a lovely touch, given that Padma is the one sorted into Ravenclaw.

his is the sort of rain that takes away even the idea of the world's ever having been dry

The childish viewpoint is beautifully done in this story, and I really like the way you bring it up to the (wizarding) present day. Lovely!

Thank you! I'm particularly glad that you thought the childish viewpoint worked, as I did struggle over it a little bit and was terribly unsure about it all.
