I love a happy ending! :) Neville was absolutely brilliant! And I loved that Irma called him a hero. ;) I loved Ginny's idea of sitting behing Harry when she first saw him at St. Mungo's. LOL at Ginny once Harry was better. Thankfully Mrs. Weasley had that Neverending arrangement. ROTFL at "Marriage Training". Hee. Awesome story!

Thanks! I was so happy when Neville volunteered to help out. Irma isn't one to give out superfluous praise. So glad you liked it :)

That was ridiculously enjoyable.

Wow. You really put him through it and his girl was magnificent.

And your Neville was squishy.

Aw...thanks! The more I write Neville, the more I like him.

I felt so bad for Harry - but his reward with Ginny is great. And they'll have quite a story to tell Ron and Hermione when they get back:)

I so wanted to smack Mac around regarding his treatment of Harry but I guess you might as well as take advantage of the situation. But still. I loved the plot line especially since it was Neville who saved him, especially with what Pince said about him. Awesome story!

Thanks! I was a little annoyed with Mac too, but, being the professional that he is, he wouldn't pass up an opportunity to educate. I'm glad you liked the plot, and yeah, I have nothing but heart eyes for Neville.

It's one of the most amazing post war h/g fics I have read. Loved every bit of it:) You got both Harry and Ginny's characterizations bang on. Thank you for writing.

What a nice thing to say - thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it.

I hadn't planned to read this in one session but once I started I couldn't stop. Terrific read - taught, tense, romantic, sensible, in character, engaging - it has it all. Plus Neville! I ♥ Neville so. Wonderful story - thanks for sharing!

Thanks so much!

"once I started I couldn't stop" That's a huge compliment :)

I'm glad you thought it was taught - more than once I had the fear that I was meandering and losing focus, but my giftee likes medleys so that's what I was aiming for. And yes, I heart Neville too. Thanks again for your review.
