Oh my! I love that you told this from Augusta's perspective, and what an interesting perspective it was, too. I knew this was going to be fun as soon as I got to your second line. :) All the details were spot on, even down to the Herbology conversations between Severus and Amelia that clearly bewildered Augusta. *g* Stinky Bob! Hah! Seeing the world through her eyes was quite a jolt from the usual. I also loved the way Minerva handled her, and the clear love running between them. And Severus/Amelia! What a delicious secondary pairing. :) Then, of course, Death Eaters had to intrude, and you handled that fabulously, too. Aunt Ernestine was a gem! All in all a lovely story, MA. Well done.
