Haunting and lovely. Thank you.

Thank-you. This story just came into my head and I had to write it, it's not like what I usually do.

I like your icon, btw.

Here from ion_bond's rec (again!)

Oh man. *mops tears with kitten*

I'm usually too chicken to read Alice/Frank, because of the inevitable. But your Alice had me with the first "Fuck!" Oh, she was awesome. And so was Frank.

*sobs* But I really liked it! It was great! *sobs*

Aw, thanks. I was nervous about writing something so sad.

I didn't start out writing this intending to make Alice cuss so much, but she just came out that way.

P.S. I love your icon.

I actually read this last night, but it's taken 22 hours before I could open the page again without crying. Oh shit, crying again anyway. The life and happiness in this was heart-breaking, and I desperately wanted to find that you'd changed the end. Even though I knew you hadn't.

Thanks. I hate to admit that I cried a little when I wrote it. J.K. Rowling has created some of the saddest characters ever.

Oh, so funny and sad and lovely and wonderful and gah!.= This is the best fic I've ever read from either Frank or Alice's POV. Seriously.

Lovely job with the end. It's so unfair what happened to them, but you did an amazing job with it. Kudos.

Thanks! You're too nice. I think Neville and his parents is one of the saddest subplots in the books. I secretly hold out hope that they find some kind of cure in the last book. I don't know if that's J.K. Rowling's style, though.

Here from lunafish's rec.

I loved it. Great duels. The one at the start was brilliant, with Alice pregnant and waddling and still zapping the DE on the nose. Take that, you cad!

I liked the way you wrote Frank. Intelligent but so good natured he was almost dippy. Alice was a great counterpoint to him. But please tell me you don't have a mother in law like that! Her remarks were n a s t y.

Thank-you! I wanted to try to write some duels, I don't usually write a lot of action. It was a fun challenge. I love action!Moms so I wanted to do one with Alice pregnant.

That's exactly how I wanted Frank to come out. I'm pleased he worked. I did make Augusta a bit harsh, I'm afraid.
