Hi. I'm Dream Painter, and I am an addict. I find myself reading Whitetail's fanfiction when I should be doing other things, like sleeping or working on my own stories...
By this point, I fear I am in danger of starting to sound redundant. I just really, really like your writing. Little Sev was absolutely darling, of course! And Dramione pleases me well, as it is one of my ships of choice.
Well done with the tentative truce between Severus and Sirius - and that last scene with Severus and Harry just gives me so many feels, I simply cannot... Wonderfully writ!
Author's Response: So, if you're an addict of my fics, does that make me your dealer? Haha, don't fear sounding redundant, Dream! I'm loving the reviews, especially because I haven't gotten any new reviews for my older stories in ages. Thanks so much for taking the time to tell me you are still enjoying the stories! Glad you liked the sort of truce between Severus and Sirius. Ah, and little Sev. I had way too much fun with this story. It's similar to the last, but I was just beside myself with giggling while I wrote it - so glad you had fun too! Cheers!

The End? More like: The Best End! Loved the fact that Harry now sees their relationship in a bright new light. But my fave scene is the one between Sirius and Severus-- I don't think I've ever seen their mutual acknowledgement handled quite so well in any other stories. And the difference is the boggart between them; without it, a reconciliation of this degree simply wouldn't be possible. A little touch of genius on your part, Whitetail! :-)
Author's Response: Wow, thanks so much shadowienne! I always thought that Severus and Sirius had so much in common, and that they actually could have respected each other if they just knew from the start that they came from similar situations. I am glad that you liked that. I really enjoyed writing their little subplot, so I am so happy it was enjoyed!

Underpants!!! I never would have guessed! Hahahahahaaaaaa! But sometimes it takes a child to logic things out... Love it! :-D ! // The cupboard scene caught me by surprise; I'd thought Sev would get trapped in there and have to be let out, but I never expected what he found! How terrifying for poor Sev. And what a revelation for the adult on scene-- wonder how that might develop later on... But seriously, this chapter took me from laughter to tears-- great job!
Author's Response: I am so happy to know you liked it shadowienne! I had fun with the superhero thing. Underpants indeed ... I am also pleased you enjoyed the cupboard scene. I really have been dying to have Sirius find out Severus' boggart for a long time, especially as a child. Anyway, thanks so very much for the review! It totally made my day!

Minerva with her wand in her teeth... If push came to shove, I'll bet she could work some pretty awesome magic even so!
Author's Response: Yeah, I bet Minerva would be spectacular when it came down to it. Cheers for the review!

The laundry games were fun (esp the sock puppet!), but bathtime was the best! Sev has quite an imagination! (I'll admit I envy him-- I wasn't permitted to play with toys in the tub, so I didn't get much to imagine...) "I gave one last moan..." That is hysterical! Loved it!
Author's Response: You weren't allowed to play in the tub? *wide eyed scream*. Terrible. I dragged everything in there. Even made life jacket for my lego dudes. Severus drew heavily from my childhood roots here, haha! I am so glad you liked the bathtime scene. I am so glad you found it funny, and enjoyed the one last moan line. Cheers!

Definitely different, but I really enjoyed it! It amazes me how many adults seem to forget what it feels like to be a little kid; I haven't forgotten, and playing "make-believe" was always lots of fun! I did wonder about Sev naming his bear Alex-- wonder if we'll find out who his inspiration is? In the meantime, he has all the essentials: besides Alex, Sev had a blankie, overalls, a hippogriff on his wall, and plenty of playmates, even if they are weird teenagers, especially the dragon in the dirt! Ha!
Author's Response: Yes, I think adults need to remind themselves sometimes just what it was like to be a child. I have refused to let myself forget, and it's good to hear you've done the same. Make believe was just a blast, I agree! Hmm, I don't think I ever do give his reason for naming him Alex, as in actuality I named him after a friend of mine. But yes, Severus sure does have the essentials! Thanks for the review, and glad to hear you're enjoying it, Shadow.
Good-- a multi-faceted opening! Can't wait to see how the Weasleys will fit into the summer (along with Molly's wooden spoon?), and what kinds of "misadventures" the boys get up to! But what had me laughing out loud was the scene with rampaging furniture-- I used to work retail furniture, & we'd have to lift/carry furniture until the owner got those slides that let you just push stuff across the floor (store had combo of carpet, wood, & tile). My tiny co-worker took to moving SOFAS by herself; she'd gallop past the front desk with the sofa whizzing lengthwise ahead of her, shouting, "GANGWAY!" Your scene gave me a hearty laugh as I flashed back! ;-)
Author's Response: Hey, great to hear from you Shadow! I am so glad that you got a good laugh out of the furniture! Great story about your co-worker, haha! I can just picture it too! Thanks for the laugh, and the review. Cheers, Whitetail.
