| Lovely fic. I was a little doubtful about the present at first, like Ginny, hee, simply because it seemed to have Fred and George written all over it. And I would be mortified if a boyfriend asked my brother to order something like that for me. But it fit perfectly into the story, and your Ginny was just wonderful here. The sense of comfort that she gave him came across loud and clear. |

| Thank you WM. Yes, the pressie *did* seem to have the twins all over it, but I'm guessing they wouldn't run the risk of another Bat-Bogey. I wonder what they did to make her use that hex on them the first time around... |

Ah, this is truly wonderful! Tender, funny, sensual and very moving.
Polished, beautifully done prose to top it all off. I'm going to be palcing this one in a special folder to re-read again and again. And, hopefully some similar kind of future awaits in cannon too.
Long live the quartet! |

| Thank you, Miri. I, too, hope that a similar happy outcome awaits in canon. I appreciate your commenting. |

Baffy, my children and I dance for joy at the continued and renewed billiance of your writing. (admittedly the children don't know quite why we're dancing, but they're quite content to join my celebration)
That was, hands down, the best reunion fic I've EVER red.
Ever.
Really.

| Thank you, Tante. I'm rather grinny, as our beloved-but-missing Antonia East likes to say, that you're all dancing! |

| this was SO cute. i really, really liked it. your characterizations were SPOT ON. very plausible. i especially liked the small interlude at the end - the story would have been good without it, but it added a nice (warm and fuzzy) touch. great job! |

| Funny. I liked that, even though I suppose that Ginny will not be quite as forgiving in canon. |
| Sunday 27th August 2006 12:54 | For Happy Returns (Author Response) |
| Thank you Critmo. I was in two mids about how forgiving Ginny would be. Maybe she waited to yell at him, heheh. |

Lovely.
A wonderful start (got to love the twins), so many details (like Percy returning - loved that), such a wonderful backstory and great interaction between Harry and Ginny.

| Thank you kindly, Evelyn. Yup, I like the twins but find tham hard to get 'right', if you see what I mean. I glad you found them 'in keeping'. |

This was just phenomenal, I must say. I loved all the oblique but clearly understandable references about what happened between Harry and Ginny, and I adored the fact that our dear sweet Harry was brazen enough to send his young beloved a naughty nightie!
This was extremely well written and executed and I can't wait to see more from you. Brilliantly done! |
| Sunday 27th August 2006 12:59 | For Happy Returns (Author Response) |
| Thank you very much, EHJ! Yes; Harry doesn't seem quite the type, does he? Must be true what they say about the quiet ones, heheh. |

| That was so wonderfully written. Loved it! I enjoyed how you wrote Harry and Ginny's interactions. Well within character, but still original. And Percy helping out...that was a new one. |
| Sunday 27th August 2006 13:01 | For Happy Returns (Author Response) |
| Thank you kindly. I do try hard to keep the characters behaving as The Author defined them so I'm glad it came across. |

| Oh my GOD that was wonderful!!! I can't believe I've never read your work before, this is incredible! You use of metaphors early on was picture perfect. Best reunion I've read yet. Thank you for writing it. |

Oh that was just fabulous!!!! I think my reaction quite mirrored Ginny's at first, but I just couldn't ignore the story because I enjoyed the writing so much; I'm so glad I kept reading.
"He’d even kissed her, sort of."
That was cute and it made me laugh.
“Out of control? Overwhelmed?” She dropped her voice to a hoarse whisper. “Randy as hell?"
oh did that make me chuckle...
“Oh, wow…” he breathed and then flushed, glancing about distractedly. “I, just, said that, out loud, didn’t I?”
*smirk* he is so cute sometimes
I loved your more bittersweet moments too. The subtle comment about Bill's unscarred face, Percy's return-and Ron's reaction-, Harry's response to the gnomes. All hints that, while this new and wonderful life is unravelling, yesterday's pain didn't disappear.
The ending was quite adorable and Molly is too funny "Ginny might be fancying strange things to eat for a special reason" *sigh* Dear Molly, one can only hope, eh?
Great work and I really loved this!

Why are you saying Bill came home for the summer after Ginny was possessed? Mind, I agree with you that he probably had a lot to do with helping Ginny get her sanity back, but the summer after Ginny was possessed was the summer Sirius escaped Azkaban, not to mention the summer the Weasleys went to Egypt. Bill didn't have to go to Ginny. She went to him.
Other than that, loved it! |

| Erm, yes. I forgot, as Harry said. I'm sure my Beta would have pointed that out to me if we'd had more time in beta, but it was initially posted it on my livejournal for Ginny's birthday. Later in the day, Sherry asked how quickly could it be posted. Given the time lag between her, myself and my beta, we did a 'rapido' beta job on it very late at night. LOL because when a Founder asks... |
