This is so utterly lovely. You did a great job - with both the writing and the art - of bringing out this real sense of melancholy. The writing is almost dreamlike at points, and the pictures give a wonderful depth to what was written. (The drawing of the dogs is my favorite. Carol is so, so cute. I want to cuddle her!)

This is a fantastic and well orchestrated piece. Beautiful work.

this is absolutely stunning, i wish it was a book so i could hold it right now.

every word seemed to carry so much meaning, all the sentences were so evocative, and the fact that its teddy discovering his father makes everything much more poignant.

the beautiful beautiful elegant drawings, which translated the mood of the story perfectly, even when they were only tiny details. the lovely photographs, well, every piece of illustration subtly enriched the story, and this was such a perfect fit between author and artist... something like this is very hard to come by.

i think what impressed me most of all, was that the whole thing made them feel real to me, i could see myself in teddy's shoes, it was almost like i was discovering a hidden past of my own... and yet there they were, so clearly remus and sirius.

there are so many great r/s artists and writers out there, but sometimes you find this piece that hits you in all the right places, i love this so much, it left me with a lump on my throat that won't go away.

Both the story and artwork are lovely ♥

The story was beautifully written, and I love that you entwined the story of Remus and Sirius in with Teddy's. It really was a lovely piece. Very touching, and beautiful.

The artwork was fantastic too. I loved the one of the shoes, and the pierced Teddy, and the last one, too. (Basically I loved them all loads, but they were my favourite three)

Wonderful work :)
