Ahh.

Perfect. Exactly as I imagined it! Great job!!

By the way...what plan?

Awesome job. Loved it

"You love those emoticons, I see, lol.  What is Charmingly_Holly?  I'm guessing it's something really fluffy but I fear I must be missing out?"

Yes. I just love 'em!  

If you don't know who Charmingly_Holly is, you certainly are missing out!   She's an author at fanfiction.net. She's really good. Some are serious  , some are sad  , but most are hilarious  . Whenever I read something sad, I go read "Help! The Butterdish is Attacking Me!"  or "Quick! Grab the Cheese Wheels and Run!" .... yeah, odd names, but they're great stories!  You should check her out! (that's you checking her out!) Even though I like PS much better than ff.net, she doesnt' have a PhoenixSong account.... ah well!

We were on a BREAK! hah, besides that wonderful tribute, this was so touching and heart-wrenching to read! Well done! (and sniffle)

Well that was brilliant, as always.  Loved the description of how Harry was dealing w/ DD's death when he was trying to sleep.  And the referances to canon really made this like a forgotten snippet from HBP.  As always, your Ginny and Harry are my fav and you don't lose any of their personality here.  Keep up the great work.  I'm hoping for something from CotD - hinthint, nudgenudge. :-D

Can't wait to read more of your work,

Vira

Oh. Wow. Wonderful! With the ! And the ! And the  !  and the ! and the !!!

I loved it! Bravo. But at the same time, oh my gosh that was so horribly sad! Now I have to go read Charmingly_Holly! Lol. No, but really, it was really good! Hurray!  Sorry. I just love these smilies!

 I'm too blown away to leave a coherent review right now. I couldn't think of any other words right now except "beautiful." And this piece really is beautiful. I somehow ended up like Harry and Ginny--crying silently.

  Oh, you've been sorely missed, Melindaleo, sorely missed but now our hearts and minds are full of joy again because you've posted another story - Yippeeeee!!! *does wild shimmy*

The story in itself is really quite sad  but gives a well-chosen and well-written insight / explanation to why Ginny is his best source of comfort .

As always the writing and storytelling is impeccable (sigh - you don't make it easy for us other mere mortals when you write as good as you do - not really fair to set the standard of writing this high *sulks*    ) and the dialogue was nicely flowing as well, felt quite in character.

In short - brilliant! Thanks for writing and sharing this!!!!

what an amazing story!!!!!! i am so happy that you wrote this missing moment, it was so sweet and sad and just so h/g. i think you are right about harry and ginny having little moments like this. i mean they were together for about month so they had to have had moments pure fluff. thanks for this story i miss reading your stuff, my weekends just aren't the same.

A nice bit of fluff.

Thanks for sharing.

Aww, sorry to send you over the edge, but I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Heh. I can suddenly picture Dean as this avid Friends watcher (not that I can talk!!). And can see him standing up at H/G's wedding and bellowing "We were just on a break!"

Lovely fic. There were moments in there that almost had me teary as well (the keening noise Harry made, for instance, because it's only in your worst moments of grief that you make that sound and often don't even realise it). And the romantic side of it was beautiful: some moments of pure fluffiness, which always improves my day, and genuine despair and hope. Wonderful job; I loved reading it.

OMG, now I want to write a oneshot about that wedding, lol!  Too funny! He's mom is a Muggle, too.

I'm glad you recognized that keening wail.  I'd shut my eyes and was trying to imagine somehow desperately trying to hold himself together, and that's where my mind went. 

Excellent little ficlet, I loved the angst you put in here, as I felt that book 6 seemed to be missing that quite a bit. And the fluffy scene with Ginny was just nice, it felt so warm and fuzzy.

Loved the friends reference in there as well. "We were on a break.." indeed.

Ya know, I was just thinking the other day how much I missed knowing there would be regular updates from you.  And then I find this, just waiting for lil' ol' me to come along and validate it  

This is absolutely priceless!  It's definitely how I would imagine them being, and it's abosolutely perfectly in character.  And yes, I caught the Friends reference, and also love that you chose that phrase from Harry's thoughts as the title.  Just perfect.  Completely perfect, and totally brilliant!
