I'm so glad you liked it!

Writing Ron second person might be the scariest thing ever for me. I'm thrilled that it "sounded" right for you. I wanted to explore different angles - Ron the best friend, Ron the acquaintance, Ron the brother and Ron the lover - how what happened 10 years ago changed and/or helped to build who he is now.

Your relentless support and friendship were so comforting this year. Thank you for everything.

I like the way you took that central theme of love being what Voldemort cannot understand, and turned it into making love being the perfect way to commemorate the anniversary of his defeat.

The way that you wrote Ron and Harry's friendship, Ron's relationship with his brothers, and his relationship with Hermione was so RON. You just GOT him.

Fantastic job! You really know how to get the emotion into the story, and I really felt what you were writing.

A+!!!

I know that second person pov is not your favorite, so I'm thrilled that you read it and enjoyed it! Thank you so much.

I'm relieved that you recognized Ron in this. I tend to write him a bit darker than other writers do, I'm aware of that.

Thanks again for reading, Auds. I appreciate it a lot.

This is so emotional, I have tears clouding my eyes. It's beautiful and reflective and holds so much truth. I

J, you have a gift with words and emotions. You easily make them jump of the page, make the reader feel and become memorable. I wish I could find a better adjective - but I feel speechless. All I can say is that it's brilliant.

I'm going to add this to my memories, it's worth reading over and over again.

I'm so, so glad that you enjoyed it!

Knowing that the emotions come through the page and touched you is such an awesome compliment to be given.

Thank you so very much for your kind words.

Wow, Red.

I was slightly confused at the beginning with the PoV - I thought it was Ron, then wondered if it were Harry or George, and realised again it was Ron ... and felt a bit like a dolt, but then the story just gripped me really tightly and I was just feeling the really strong emotions of this special day as I followed Ron through it.

Every single word was perfect.

We are so fortunate to have you writing these amazing fics for us. Christmas is all the more special because of it!

You are right - the beginning is a bit cloudy. I wanted to write something *grey* and lead it to darkness where strangely everything is more luminous, if that makes sense :).

I'm thrilled that you enjoyed the story, and I hope you will enjoy what is to come.

Writing with amazing people in mind is wonderful. :)
