I am so thrilled that you liked it. I enjoyed writing it immensely and it's so gratifying to see that I met your taste. And that you find the silly little things funny with which I was cracking myself up whilst writing ("Aberforth the Grey"...) (The crossover is Shameless. I'm so happy that you're familiar with the show - although I was trying to keep it subtle so that you don't miss out anything if you aren't.)
I was actually hoping I would get to write Petunia for this exchange, and so your request had made me quite happy. And then I decided to throw in Minerva, too, and Augusta for good measure (because three is a good number for witches). It was only after I had finished the fic that I came across an older post of yours in which you were discussing how much you like Augusta, so my complete stab in the dark had proved lucky.
And even though you didn't have anything to do with the assignment: Thank you for providing me with a request that resulted in so much fun writing!
The greatest challenge was, of course, to write Vernon as sexy.
