Christmas Fluff!

[ladywhizbee]

A light flurry of snowflakes drifted across Ginny’s field of vision. Aimless, and apparently unaffected by gravity, they tossed, rising and falling with the wind until coming to rest on one of the barren branches in the garden. Occasionally one would land on the mullion in front of her nose. Sticking to its edge and adding to the collection,

Nice and fluffy, loved it.

Thanks so much! I'm so glad that you liked it.

His eyes met hers and they locked into place, fully connecting.

There was no one else.

Ah yes, that moment across a crowded room. Nothing else matters, no one else is there. Well done indeed! *Happy fluffy grin*

Particularly between the two of them. They just have that fiery 'blazing look' chemistry that is so appealing, and I wanted to recreate that. I'm so glad that you liked it. :-)

So many beautiful lines. I loved the snow flakes stacked up at the windowpane and the rosy glow of the winter sunset. I also loved the sounds of voices coming from downstairs and Ginny's frayed jeans - all those little details that show Ginny's hyperawareness as she waits.

I love how you inverted the sunlit days - or rather how your revisited it with the same choreography and JKR's words. So lovely.

Your contrasts between hot and cold and light and dark were wonderfully done. Such beautiful fluff. Thank you.

And no apologies for being absent! We've all been absent. This is a great reunion of the fluff thread.

**Warm fuzzies and hugs** Thank you for your kind words -- and lovely encouragement. I'm so pleased that you liked it.

I played a bit with the wording of the 'kiss' but found the more I changed it to be less like the original, the less it worked on the whole. I really wanted to recreate that scene in reverse from Ginny's POV. And it seemed best to keep it simple.

Well, you know I like this and I'm glad you've posted it for everyone else to enjoy too!

[ladywhizbee]

Oh, Ros. :-) Thank you so much for proding me. Your insight was so helpful and without it I'm not sure I ever would have posted it. Hugs!

This is beatiful. I love Christmas fluff of any kind, and especially Harry/Ginny Christmas fluff. You did a great job capturing the characters--Ginny in particular was spot-on. I didn't think it ran long at all, you definitely needed the period of her waiting, watching, and wondering to properly lead into the fluffy end.

[ladywhizbee]

You think so? That has been one of my main concerns, but perhaps I'm over-analyzing it. I suppose that does happen when you're reading and re-reading the same thing over and over again until your eyes blur! :-) Well, anyway. Thank you -- I'm so glad that you liked this. BTW, I completely concur on Christmas Fluff. It is definitely, positively, absolutely a MUST at this time of year. :-)
