FIC: Worth a Try (Virgin Sacrifice Challenge)

May 31, 2004 19:42

And here is “The Fic That Did Not Want To Be Born”. Everytime I think about my writing process for this, I’m painfully reminded of a quote from LOTR: “that we should suffer so much fear and doubt over so small a thing.” I have no idea what my deal was with this fic (The pairing? The scenario? No clue), but it’s finally over. Its two half-formed ( Read more... )

Aww. You make me feel all warm and squiggly inside.

Apart from that...*Whew* Thank Merlin that's over. No more Remus/Neville for either of us, I think.

I do like the finished product, though. It's great.

Dude, you seriously deserve it. You're the best EVAR. I'll even write you a fic (and not even ask you for advice on it!) if you want. Anything you want (trusting that you won't want Remus/Neville...).

Thanks for putting up with me long enough to actually READ the finished product!

I love it! And yes, I can see Lupin paying for that later.

I like the way Neville finds way to get around every obstacle Lupin presents him not to have sex with him. Neville is still somewhat innocent and self-depreciating when he makes his move, it's the way he thinks it's his appearance that is pushing Lupin away.

Thanks so much! And thanks for the specific feedback. It helps me figure out what works and doesn't. I nearly cut that very part so it's good to know I did the right thing and left it in.

ROTFLMAO!!!!

I can just see the look on Snape's face...and Remus'...

[Giggle fit!!]

Haha! Thanks!

awwwww, that was really cute. but no sex? poor Neville! (well, sort of poor Neville. sneaky little bastard. ;) )

Very nicely done! Enjoyed it thoroughly.

Thanks!

but no sex?

I think this was why the other two failed. These guys just refused to cooperate and get into the sack, and the other attempts sort of required it. *sigh* I'll revisit them someday and then you'll get your Remus/Neville smut.
