Excellent. 'No one write with a quill nowadays' lol perfect and won't he be surprised when he sees Alphard's quills. 'He'd love to meet the young man again' and i can't wait!How old is Albert? And how old is Alphard when this takes place?

Oh, yes, he'll be very surprised, especially when he sees how talented Alphard is with wand work...

Well, here's the thing: Alphard is just sixteen when he meets Albert - of course, he doesn't look it. Albert imagines he's in his very early 20's and will be rather shocked when he realizes how young Alphard is. Albert is 10 years older, 26 when this happens.

Something very important, though, that I still have to decide how to address - Alphard's gorgeous, of course, and Albert's aesthetic eye picks this up right away. Albert, however, is nothing special, but Alphard thinks he's the most beautiful thing he's ever seen.

talented with wand work ...Hmm won't comment on that one ;o)
I can't wait to read more, Alphard sees the whole package, and since Albert is such a great guy, it makes him the most beautiful thing in Alphards eye

He's like Fleur - "I zink I'm handsome enough for two, zank you!"

I like it very much. The description Albert makes of Alphard is charming...
So that's how the snotty pure-blood met his muggle soul mate, through Michelle. Very nice.

Isn't that sweet? :-}
