Congratulations on your runner up! I voted for you. It jarred me a little at the end. I like having my nerves played with (no, get out of the gutter) and I often participate in sortinghatdrabs. Can't wait to see what you attempt next.

Thank you, you are so sweet. And I know, but this little piece was going to have an obvious ending so I decided to go for it. I do love that you offer concrit feedback btw.

Your Bellatrix promp still haunts me and I have an idea for a story, that I really, really, really want to write, so I don't know if I am able to focus on anything else for a while. With a bit of luck a cool prompt sets me off a'drabbling though.

I have discovered that I really like the drabble format. It's really cool.

It forces you to be very concise with your ideas. I love drabbles.

Exactly so. You need to think the idea through so only the essential stuff remains. It's hard, but it's also a challenge getting everything together. I think that structure is even more important to a drabble than it is in a longer story. And it is really important in longer fics too.

*bounces and squees and hugs you tight*

YAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!! I'm so proud of you, darling! You really deserve that shiny banner, as your drabble was so great. I know it took courage to enter, and I'm happy that your courage was rewarded. :)

As I said, I think you had the most original take on the prompt. I also think you made the best use of the drabble format. And the chemistry between your Charlie and Pansy? *fans self*

Thank you sweetie! I have you to thank for a lot of that courage. Without your encouragement and support, all of my stuff would still be sitting in one of my 'fic' files on the computor.

And you saying it's an original idea is such high praise ...

Pansy and Charlie ... Who would have thought? But she needs a manly man doesn't she? I bit rough. But nice. And he needs someone with a little poison in her bite. *giggles* For some reason they just worked.
