I am sorry you were sick, but I know the pleasure to have the freedom to read a long story to beginning to end. That the story was mine, and that you enjoyed it really make me happy. I am glad you enjoyed the details. Sometime i fear that I get bogged down by minutiae and that the readers are just going to fall asleep. I had a great time writing Kreacher, Flitwick and Lucius Malfoy in this story, and I am happy when any of those three get comments because I have such affection for them. The unrelieved sexual tension does drag on in this. I was pretty giddy myself when they finally got to be together. I figured I needed to bond them right there and then, nice and secure, so neither one would go on a self doubt trip again! Thanks for commenting. It means a great deal after spending so many years working on a fic!
