The Christian Scientists are fantastic! So's the rest, but that in particular is exactly the sort of AU thinking I like to see. :D

Also, butch!Molly is wonderful, and I think she should become a fixture in fic.

Thank you! :) The Christian Scientist part was the first I wrote, and everything followed from there. It was fun... *nostalgic* And I'm really delighted you enjoyed it.

Yes, butch!Molly will have to turn up again, when there's room to develop her a bit more. :D

Brilliant as ever! I was laughing through the whole thing! And Xenophilius saying, "Enjoy your epilogue, folks!" completely cracked me up! And Madam Pomfrey telling them all God would save them! And God's letter to Jo! And - everything!

Sorry if this seems weird, but... do use the word "period" to refer to the dot at the end of a sentence? Because I was looking at the Wikipedia entry for "Mr" (I was bored) and it said "In the United Kingdom, most Commonwealth countries and Ireland, a full stop (in the US and Canada, a period)...." That seems to imply that it's not called a period in Britain and Ireland. Is that true? Sorry for the randomness!

[minnow_53]

Thank you very, very much! *big hugs* I'm really happy you liked it.

You can say either 'period' or 'full stop' as far as I know. We do mainly say 'full stop', though, because the English like to be complicated...

i had been waiting to see post-DH fic from you since i finished reading the book. :D love it!

[minnow_53]

Thank you! :)

I was working on a sort of gloomy, Ingmar-Bergmanish R/S in heaven fic, but this one rather superseded it, which is probably just as well! :D

They pored over the magazine until late that night, little knowing that Snape, up in the Slytherin dorm, was planning to wear white as well, to show his beloved bride that he came to her a pure virgin...

I can't even tell you how hard that made me laugh. I'm not sure why I even found it that funny, but I did. :D

[minnow_53]

Lol! :D I don't know what that says about anything...

Thank you very much! The new name is really great, btw. We voted well, didn't we? :P

[liveonthesun]

Very well!

My mom saw it and said, "It sounds like 'trollop'."

I laughed and informed her I had already spent $15 for it and didn't feel like spending another $15 to change it back.

Wonderful stuff :) I wish JKR would read it.

[minnow_53]

Thank you very much! :) But I really hope she won't, or I'll be besieged by solicitors' letters and freaky things... 0_o
