It was so cute. And romantic in a sense. I loved how their relationship sorta grew and came about and all. Utterly adorable, like you!

Yay! Thank you very much! ♥ I'm absolutely delighted you liked it. I think this is the only one Trina won't have seen - must do more.

*adorable back* *big hugs*

Aw, that was delightful! I always love your Marauder-era fics. The pranks were marvelous, especially Sirius's towards the girls.

Thank you very much! ♥ I've realised that there's a theme of animal, vegetable and mineral running through this one. Strange...

Oh! So lovely! *smile* No one does fluff quite in the way that you do. Fabulous silly, small details.

Although...would it sound daft so say that this also made me a little sad? *checks for unseasonable moodiness* Perhaps it's just the rainy day and not anything to do with the boys pretending that love is the greatest prank of all.

Well, I'm a bit surprised -- if gratified! -- to find that I've become a fluff writer. I do enjoy light MWPP, both reading and writing it, but I'm always very aware that even the crackiest fic can't ever do more than show a brief time of happiness in lives that are destined to be totally grim. Sometimes that comes across, sometimes not.

Hmmm...well, perhaps I'm not using the word in the same way everyone else does, but for me fluff is a light touch and a sense of humor despite the subject matter, and you do that superbly. And the interesting thing about quite a few of your stories is the sense of gravity you develop at the same time--due not just the long-term time frame for MWPP (though that heightens the sense of tragedy no matter the subject of the story) but to the combination of optimism and pessimism within the moment.

Ah, I see the angst bunnies have been locked in the hutch for now, mm? ;D This was lovely--funny and silly and very sweet.

Yes, the angst bunnies are wailing away behind bars as I write! :D Actually, this is the fic that they kept interrupting.

Thanks so much for reading and commenting! ♥
