I AM CRYING WITH HOW GOOD THIS IS AND I'M NOT EVEN LEAVING FIRST POST FB B/C YOU WERE INSPIRED BY MY ART. IT'S B/C I REALLY AM CRYING FROM THIS OMGGGG. I have to revert to point-form, so I can tell you everything I love about this -

- Paul trying to teach in song. AHAHA YES. And then it just becomes a bunch of silly loves songs!! AND LITTLE LILY, WHO OF COURSE WOULD KNOW WHO HE IS AGGGGGGG. Everything about Paul is so bobbly and pert and good!teacher, bordering on Lockhart except no where near as despicable, ohhhh. Such a Gryffindor.

- AND RINGO. WHERE DO I EVEN START WITH RINGO. He can't fathom having to teach and his unstructured classes just warm my heart and I love that his teaching style makes me think of Remus's teaching style, because YES. YESS. CUPS OF TEA. So beautiful, so sublime. I love that he is happy to be among the others and his is the only class they'll barge in on, but he's glad he doesn't have to be with the others, like. In the band. BECAUSE YES ( ... )

OMG YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH THIS COMMENT MEANS TO ME. Like, if other people enjoy it that's all well and awesome, but it came from YOUR art and YOUR ideas and it was so FUN to write!

Lol, when I was writing about Ringo at first I wasn't too sure what to do, but then I remembered about an English teacher my dad had once and he told me he was a hippie and so when the weather was nice THEY'D GO OUTSIDE AND HAVE TEA PARTIES INSTEAD OF CLASS and I thought YESSSSSSSSSSS.

I'M GLAD YOU ENJOYED IT AND YOUR ART IS AWESOME.

Okay, this? IS FUCKING BRILLIANT.

This is like the perfect marriage of HP canon and RPF.

You sorted the fab four into houses and I couldn't agree more with your choices.

I just... I love the Beatles hugely and this is brilliant, and I said that already I know, but I love this to itty, bitty pieces.

YOU = GENIUS

Definitely reccing this. Here via Glock's squeeage. And now you have mine as well.

Thank you! I know it's a pretty lame reply to such a good comment, but I just really don't know what else to say! I'm glad you agreed with my choices for sorting - I debated whether or not to do that because if I'd gotten it all wrong it would have completely ruined the story, but it just seemed to fit in the end, and I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw it that way!

But of course John is Slytherin, and oh I love you.

Well I love your icon!

No, really, your feedback and the hearts make me blush. I'm glad people enjoyed what was for me great fun to write!

Not a lick of argument with your sorting. NOT A LICK. :D This was delightful.
