Well, I am glad to hear that you are reviewing/redoing the ending. I didn't want to be rude, but I did find it a bit, um, hmmm.....off? I don't know. Something just seemed missing. But it wasn't a horrible ending, so I left it with that original comment. As to your question..... Yes, my username is from B5 and if I'd known that spaces were allowed in usernames, I would have spaced her name correctly. I assume you know who I refer to when I say "her". I used to just go by Delenn until I found too many people using that name. So I switched to her Grey Council title since fewer (if anyone) uses it. And when someone does use it, lol, it irks me. I consider it MY username, lol. You probably think me VERY odd now, lol. Anyway, between her and Ivanova, I chose her name. She is quiet and complacent most of the time, but when "properly" provoked, she is not a force to be reckoned with. I like that. So, that is why I chose it. Anyway, I look forward to re-reading your ending when it's finished! Good luck in re-doing it. It's not easy, I know. And incidentally, I am glad to see the "Notify me if the author responds" thing working again. It wasn't for the last few months and I was not getting notifications to the reviews I'd left like I'd requested when I checked the box. It was rather irritating. But it actually for once alerted me to your response. Woohoo! lol. |

Interesting ending. Introspective to say the least.
Author's Response: I'm glad you found it so. I kind of like giving the story a bit of historical weight so as to offset some of the silliness.

"Imagine how it would feel to run your fingers through that greasy mop," said Seamus with relish.
This line made me shoot pop out my nose, I laughed so hard! There's nothing better than humor mixed in with your smut!
Author's Response: I quite agree about the delights of humorous smut, and I'm thrilled that you found a pleasant mix of both in this story. Thank you so much for reviewing! (and best of luck with future pop endeavors ;) |

Great story! I really enjoyed the characters, the plot development and movement of the story. Very well written. Thank you!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the plot development and the pacing. I grew up before ADD was called ADD, so I was allowed to skip merrily about yammering about things that I find interesting. As you can tell, very little has changed :) Thank you so much for your lovely review! |

"When was the last time you had a bowel movement?" That was such a typical Snape question to ask. Effective for proving the true serum and yet still embarrassing for the questionee without getting too personal. Loved it.
Author's Response: I dreaded writing that exchange, but I was so pleased with what popped out of my brain that I decided to give it a holiday. I'm so glad you found it characteristic of our favorite greasy git. :D Thank you so much for your review- it made my day! |

Oh I'm so tickled to hear that.
Author's Response: I delight in the rhyme (tickle/pickle)! If only I could find a perfect rhyme for Mundungus!
Yours in 42de (ha ha)

I'm thrilled that I had a new chapter to read. Very sad that this is the last chapter. Would you write an epilogue. Pretty please with all sorts of lemons on top..
Thanks a bunch. Happy Halloween
Author's Response: I'll tell you what: I concur with the folks who've said that the ending is a bit rushed, so I'll either have a newly improved last chapter or an epilogue of some sort. I don't know if I can do lemons (I'm still traumatized by something horrific I once wrote). I hope it'll serve as an appropriate "thank you" for your lovely reviews! |

This was great, I loved it! Normally I prefer longer works, but this was perfect. I hope you post other fics!
Author's Response: I'm glad you found the length to be satisfactory! I'm attempting to smooth out the ending a wee bit, so it may end up a few hundred words longer, but I don't think that's what you meant. :) Thank you so much for your review and your encouragement! |
