Oh, metaphors. :) I love Tonks relating their love to a snowy day, and then Ginny bursting out with some (unknown) dirty thought at curling up in front of a fire. Something about champagne and a fur rug, I presume. ;)

Very lovely job.

Too cute! Your Tonks voice is so rambling and funny and yet totally heartfelt, and I could totally imagine her giving this sort of advice to Ginny. The analogies are really clever, and the whole thing does have a cozy snowy day feel. Great work!

I really like how you wrote Tonks' voice here, and I think it's a very sweet description of love altogether. Nice job!

Nice idea, to have Tonks share her thoughts on love (and waiting for your man to come to his senses) with Ginny. The style you've chosen certainly didn't seem confusing to me -- it was easy to guess what Ginny was asking or saying. This style might be hard to follow in a longer story, I suppose, but for a short piece like this, it gives it an interesting and unusual flavor, and Tonks's exuberant and colorful voice comes through really well.

This was lovely and increadibly cute. I love monolouge style and this one came off as increadibly Tonks. It also works well in that the reader is able to imagine Ginny's responses to Tonks even though they're not written in. Great job!
