THis is wonderful. So veru funny and sweet and bless completely insane Sirius. A brilliant way to start the day, this.

Thank you so much! A good romantic comedy of errors is always a fun thing to wake up to!

[yeats]

Oh, this was wonderful and madcap and - hm, there was something of a Shakespearean comedy about the fluid way in which the characters moved through the piece. Excellent!

[romanticalgirl]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I tried to capture that comedy of errors/romantic comedy vibe that makes stories so much fun. I'm glad to know this worked for you on that level! Thanks so much!

Excellent stuff! Poor, poor Remus. He always gets the short end of the stick.

*adores your icon*

Poor Remus, indeed. But something tells me Sirius more than made it up to him. *wink*

This was hilarious! I loved it! Everyone was just how I imagine they would be! And the lines!

“Night, lover.”

“I’m not your…”

“You were saying, Remus?”

“I had a thought.”

“Merlin help us,” Remus muttered under his breath.

“About Lily.”

“There’s a shocker,” Peter mumbled around his bite of chocolate frog.

And my absolute favorite:
“Your fashion sense is no longer a sign of good breeding so much as whether or not you like to take it up the arse.”

All in all, totally awesome. I'm totally going to go check out more of your stuff now.

First off, yay to Dread Pirate Roberts icon!

Secondly, thank you so much! I hope you found more stuff that you enjoyed, but even if you didn't, I'm glad you liked this one. It was a lot of fun to write, and it seems that's come across in the reading as well.

Thanks again!

That was hysterically funny. Sirius' constant flirting with James had me dying of laughter. And this line:
She assumes the Potter fortunes, along with the family jewels are mingling with the rather tainted coffers of the House of Black.”

“As if my mother would let him touch my coffers.”

Almost made me do a spit take. I loved this! Thanks so much!

That bit seems to be a favorite. Sirius was quite fun to write - he was the master at manipulation in this. No one stood a chance. Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed it!
