It's funny, Weasleycest doesn't bother me when it's just the boys, but I always feel a little bit pervy reading it when Ginny is involved. :-p I can never resist the lure of Ron, though. I'm glad I clicked because I really liked it. (Lovely as usual.) I particularly like the "Gingerbread" nickname. That was very cute.

Because of the possibility of incest-chilluns? XD

Aww, thank you. *grin* I'm glad you enjoyed it!

This was lovely! I adored the progression of their relationship, and the awkward tension was exactly right. Beautiful story!

Oh, Ron. I loved reading his thoughts -- and the glimpses of them when they were younger were my favorites! :)

Ooooh, intriguing fic! Stories focussing on the youngest Weasleys growing up together are pretty rare, so I enjoyed reading this very much. I loved how close they are (and how well they know each other), and especially how Ron finds out about girls with her of all people. It made me wonder if that talk Molly and Arthur had with them about not sleeping together inspired this sort of interest in the first place...

Getting all the past details makes their final encounter flow almost naturally, all drunk impulse and long-time longing despite Ron's few mental worries. And it's funny that Ginny ends up as the one who's so wise about things in the end - I loved
"Shut up," she whispered, pushing herself down onto him with a groan. "It's always been you."

And a perfect way to end things, reversing their roles in the last line.

I'm honestly not too fond of Ron/Ginny normally (or Weasleycest or Ginny as such) but this was wonderful and worked extremely well. A great read - thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much for the thoughtful comment! I think it's easier to understand how such a taboo thing can happen if we see the progression through their lives. Then, of course, mix in a little firewhiskey and see what happens. ;D

I'm so glad you enjoyed the story!
